Earlier, where you were getting to hear normal sound quality, in this mode the sound becomes a bit clear as we need for gaming.

12mm drivers have been used in these earbuds, although most people do not understand these numbers but let me tell you that 12mm are very good numbers according to any TWS earbuds.

In a nutshell, the bigger the drivers the better the sound quality will be.

I played different games with these earbuds where there was no complaint of any kind in the sound quality.

Although I did feel a slight lack of treble in some places, but it was not enough to consider it much.

Now that I’ve used these kinds of earbuds a lot, I’ve gotten used to testing them out.

Thats why I recognize these tiny little flaws.

An normal user will not have any problem with its sound quality at all.

On one hand, those people who want to take Wings Phantom gaming true wireless earbuds for gaming as well as listening to music and who are hard music lovers.

They might not enjoy it that much but if you are a casual listener you will have no problem.

You can easily go for it.
