Speaking of the first Meizu product, it is naturally the old line MP3 player Music Card. The accompanying earphone is PT850, and its bass effect was very good at that time. Meizu has built an EP10 for its smart phone M8, which is of average quality, and the bass is not as strong as 850. The next EP10 update is EP21 (EP21HD), It is relatively balanced, followed by the in ear EP31. From the name of this EP2X, we can see that it is the revision of the EP2 series, especially the great changes in the structure and modeling. Meizu has always been persistent in flathead headphones. What new things can this EP2X bring?

‍

Meizu EP2X sells for 129 yuan, so its natural packaging is also much higher, with two layers of packaging inside and outside. At the moment, I understand that "For the lovely ones" on the front of the outer carton is born for Meizu's love, and also for the continuation of Meizu's brilliant flat plug.

After the upper and lower flaps of the outer carton are separated, Meizu EP2X lies quietly in the transparent plastic shell and is stuck in the gray soft silicone slot. Of course, this kind of transparent plastic shell is not a patent of EP2X. EP21HD and EP31 are both this kind of packaging. The difference is that the shape of the shell is different.

‍

In addition to the earphones, there is also a manual for the package. There is nothing else. I think it would be better if there were an additional earphone storage belt. However, since the higher priced EP31 has not been delivered with earphone belts, I can only hope for it.

Meizu EP2X, a brand new product ID design, has changed from a conventional flat plug to a semi in ear structure, similar to Apple's EarPods, but with more curved parts than EarPods. Whether you say imitation or plagiarism, EP2X, with the help of the curved design, is really more beautiful than the first two in sense. Streamline products are undoubtedly more popular with users.

One of the two sound outlets on the EP2X is a triangular shape, and the black filter screen is directly exposed; The other is long and wrapped with filter tip. The filter tip is made of off white silica gel, which can obtain better comfort and sound insulation effect. The inner side of the whole earphone is round and smooth, the appearance is very pleasing, and the material is a combination of PC+ABS composite materials.

The outer edge of the EP2X earphone is clear, and you can clearly see the winding curve intersection. According to the official statement, the design inspiration comes from the rhythmic music, which is more like jumping notes. Two air guides are distributed on the curve surface, which affect the distance, depth and bass intensity of the voice by affecting the air permeability of the chamber. The specific listening effect will be reflected later.

R and L marks are printed on the inner wall of the earphone, but most people don't often look at them. There is a raised contact point under the right R character. It is more convenient to identify the left and right ears with this method. The earphone is a curved gum curve, which is an extension of the arc of EP2X, preserving the design integrity.

The design of the arc is beautiful and also conducive to wearing. Meizu EP2X is very comfortable to wear, and it feels good to be close to the ear. Even if it is worn for a long time, there is no sense of fatigue. The silicone filter tip at the front of the ear canal+curved ear muffs are fitted to the face, making the EP2X not as slippery as the ordinary flat plug and easy to fall off.

Meizu EP2X earphones are equipped with a microphone through function. The microphone is usually on the right ear remote control, and the logo of Meizu is printed on the side of the microphone. After a trial, the call volume and sound quality are OK, better than dozens of low-quality brands or music earphones. Meizu's earphones are mainly used for mobile phones, so it is worth relying on.

The remote control on the back of the microphone is an integrated structure with three key auxiliary buttons, which integrates daily operations such as volume adjustment, music playback and call control. It has wide versatility and supports most Android phones and Apple phones. The EP2 X-ray control is easy to use in practice, but the key experience effect is a little hard. It can only be pressed with a little force.

At the junction head of the left and right lines, there is a snap that can slide to fix the junction position. At the bottom center of the snap, there is a small protruding point. Friends who are familiar with Meizu earphones should know that it is a mark of anti-counterfeiting. After all, the imitation Meizu EP2X on a treasure also needs dozens of dollars, which is still very profitable. No business trades without fraud.

The TPE material of Meizu EP2X's wire material is characterized by its softness and good touch, as well as the prevention of wire winding. It also adds high elastic Kevlar fiber to enhance its toughness. If the wire material of Meizu's earphones has a good service life from the previous EP21HD and other products, the EP2X can be said to be more durable.

There is also a row of small characters "Designed by Meizu Made in China ZY1702C" printed on the line of EP2X, which is undoubtedly another small anti-counterfeiting mark. It can be seen that they are very careful.

In the plug part, Meizu EP2X has changed to the 3.5mm interface of the elbow, which is a bit dull. Previously, the straight end of the product suddenly changed to the elbow, which is inexplicable. I guess it should be to cater to the curve design of the EP2X; Another disadvantage is the silver metal plug of the EP2X, not the gold plated plug, which is a bit off grade.

After talking about the appearance, let's talk about the sound quality again. Meizu EP2X impedance has been lowered from 128 Ω to 32 Ω for the EP21HD, which undoubtedly can adapt to more audio devices, especially the mobile phones most commonly used by ordinary users (non music mobile phones), reducing the threshold of use. Compared with EP21HD, the sensitivity is increased from 99db to 105db, which makes it easier to control earphones, and other parts are about the same.

It is easy to drive EP2X when listening on the mobile phone. It is easy to analyze the music of various MP3 formats in the mainstream of mobile phones. The details are slow and full, and the layers are clear; The three frequencies are balanced, the low configuration is powerful, the mid frequency is soft, and the high frequency is crisp. The overall tuning characteristics are close to EarPods. The sound effect is like boiled water. The smoothness and sophistication make it impossible to find obvious defects or highlight one aspect.

With a professional player, Meizu EP2X is not so bad. The low frequency is not as powerful as the EP21HD. Just when we arrived, we stopped talking. Fortunately, the transient response of the low-frequency and intermediate frequency connection part is natural and harmonious. The intermediate frequency is similar to the mobile phone. It is smooth, soft, and full of voice. It is the most suitable for listening to soothing pop music. In terms of high frequency, EP2X has a clear explanation of sound details, but compared with HIFI earphones, the soprano sounds less toxic, and the performance of other bass, saxophone, piano and other instruments is in line.

My personal opinion on the sound quality of Meizu EP2X is: retain the consistent tuning features of Meizu earphones. Low configuration is enough while retaining the details of medium and high frequencies. The tri band is more balanced, so that multi terminal devices can be easily driven to play. This price point earphones should have some, should not have some, and need not be forced.

Meizu EP2X is the product of Meizu earphone EP series, which is a link between past and future. Its novel design is very eye-catching. When the price is similar, consumers would prefer to choose products with higher appearance value, while the sound quality EP2X is also worthy of this price. EP2X is the leader in other additional aspects such as wearing comfort. Of course, Meizu EP2X only costs 129 yuan. You can't expect it to have two or three hundred earphones. It can only be regarded as an entry-level earphone. Professional enthusiasts can just pass by. Ordinary users can listen to music and voice on their mobile phones very well.
