Meizu EP52 sports earphones first impressions
I’m not a big fan of earphones, especially when working out, but the Meizu EP52 sports earphones may have changed that.
This is the Meizu EP52
They are the Chinese brand’s newest Bluetooth wireless earphones. (Subscribe button and Flash Funko Pop not included.)
It comes in bright red…
… which is a detail I absolutely love. This makes these earphones easier to find in the sea of cables I have lying around at home. I also like that the ear pieces are connected to each other — this means there’s no chance of losing either of them.
There are also cool accessories!
It comes with three other pairs of earbuds with ear support, each in different sizes. There’s also a silicone case and a micro-USB cord for charging.
Testing out the earphones
Like I mentioned earlier, I’m pretty skeptical about earphones in general. Most of the time, normal earphones fall off when I’m doing anything aside from sitting still. In-ear headphones, on the other hand, just make me feel like there’s something jammed up my ear canal. But, not this pair.
These Meizu EP52 earphones fit my ears perfectly — after a quick switch to smaller earbuds provided for.
They’re water-resistant, too! No need to worry about sweat ruining them as you bust your butt at the gym. The silicone neck piece that connects the two ear pieces helps keep them in place as your workout commences. This means no slipping on either side no matter what crazy running or jumping around you attempt.
It’s quick and easy to pair these with your phone: Press and hold the button on the right to pair with your device. Going out of range doesn’t automatically remove pairing, either; it gives you a few minutes leeway which is a great feature for those of you who, like me, move around a lot when working out.
For US$ 50, these are pretty great earphones. They look good, feel good, and got me to go on the treadmill more. It’s a win-win!

Nothing launches the Headphone (1) Pro
The brand has also tapped BTS’s V to endorse the headphones.
If you’re a fan of the brand’s uniquely transparent aesthetic, Nothing has just given its iconic Nothing Headphone (1) a much-needed makeover with a new Pro version.
Today, Nothing launched the Headphone (1) Pro, an upgrade over last year’s successful launch. The new headphones sport a triple-driver design, which enhances the pair’s audio quality, ranging from a 40mm bass driver to an xMEMS driver for the treble. The Nothing X app also allows for a more advanced equalizer for users to finetune exactly what they’ll hear. The Pro even has a physical switch to turn off equalizer adjustments, so you can hear audio at its most natural. Besides that, it also allows for Spatial Audio, a setting that can simulate immersive listening as if you were in a concert hall or a live space.
Enhanced from the previous generation’s 42dB, the Headphone (1) Pro features active noise cancellation going up to 46dB using its 10-mic system.
As for design, the new Pro has a cleaner aesthetic that still accentuates the brand’s uniqueness. For one, the plastic has been replaced with glass. It’s also more comfortable with better padding for the band and the earcups. Finally, it’s a bit lighter, weighing only 327 grams.
If that’s not enough, Nothing has managed to tap BTS’s V to endorse the new headphones. “I’m excited to be part of this bold new chapter with Nothing. Headphone (1) Pro is a design grounded in creative expression, and I look forward to our journey together,” he said.
The Nothing Headphone (1) Pro will sell for US$ 399 and will be available starting September 29.

Hollyland announces LARK M3 for multi-camera, multi-person setups
Scalable wireless audio system configurable up to 4 transmitters, 4 receivers
Hollyland has announced the LARK M3, a flexible and scalable wireless audio system designed for multi-camera, multi-person productions.
Rather than functioning as a single wireless microphone, the LARK M3 can be a one-to-many or many-to-one audio system.
This way, it can capture group interviews, podcasts, multi-person content, and multi-camera shoots with a setup that easily adapts to the number of people and devices involved.
At the core of LARK M3 is its multi-transmitter and multi-receiver architecture. Up to four transmitters can connect to a single receiver. Each person can wear their own mic and be recorded independently.
Conversely, one transmitter can connect to up to four receivers simultaneously. A single speaker’s voice can be captured by multiple cameras or smartphones at once.
That flexibility extends into post-production through four-track independent recording. When paired with the hot shoe adapter, or by connecting a USB-C or Camera receiver to a computer, LARK M3 delivers four isolated audio tracks. This gives editors full control to adjust each speaker’s volume and sound separately.
Ultra-portable professional-grade audio
The LARK M3 pairs studio-level specs with an easy-to-use design. It can record at 48kHz/32-bit with a 70dB signal-to-noise ratio and 125dB max SPL.
The system uses Hollyland’s Hollyland’s proprietary HDT wireless technology to move audio data 50% faster for richer, clearer sound over distances of up to 300m.
AI noise cancellation can suppress wind, traffic, running water, and other background noise across three adjustable levels.
Custom voice tuning provides one-tap vocal enhancement for all transmitters, along with eight vocal presets. Each preset can be customized in the app as well.
Auto-Limit Clip Protection keeps volume levels stable across dynamic ranges, while a Primary/Secondary receiver setup is designed to prevent recording interruptions, meaning if the Primary RX drops out, a Secondary RX instantly takes over.
