Connection quality

I tested it by connecting it to a Cayin N6II/E02 with SBC.

 

I don't know because I haven't been in crowds, but it is stable in the home. Distance tolerance is excellent, and the connection is seamless and intact even at a distance of about 5 meters. Communication was never interrupted, even across obstructions, and I was able to listen to music consistently.

 

There may be a small amount of background noise, but most people probably won't notice it.

The operating interface is a touch type.

Sound quality description

The following review was tested on a FiiO M15 with a SBC connection.

 

Lenovo Thinkplus LP1S has a V-shaped sound signature.

 

Please see here for detailed reviews on sound quality.

Lows / Bass

The Lenovo Thinkplus LP1S is quite linear and reaches relatively deep.

 

The drums have plenty of heft and impact. Rumble is a bit weak, so the sense of realism can be a bit lacking. Tightness also seems a bit poor.

 

The electric bass also sounds black enough, but lacks a little bit of sink and sounds a bit warm.

 

The low frequencies are quite dominant over the midrange in terms of volume, which makes the midrange sound a bit muddy.

Mids

The midrange of the Lenovo thinkplus LivePods GM2 Pro has a backward leaning structure with an emphasis on thickness and depth. Resolution is quite good and transparency is good.

 

The midrange tends to sound dry, and the texture is inaccurate and extremely edge-enhanced, making the sound noisy to the ear and difficult for me personally to get used to.

 

Cymbals, guitars, and snares lack smoothness and sound gritty, and vocals have a strong sibilance sound, and songs with many "t" and "s" consonants tend to be a bit too aggressive.

 

Linearity is not bad, so it is not too difficult to understand, but it sounds like it could give you a headache if you listen to it for too long.

Highs / Treble

High frequencies have excellent extension and plenty of detail. Localization is also quite good.

 

The adjustment is smooth with relatively good sound image consistency, and the overtones are for the most part quite natural. However, the highs tend to sound noticeably rougher, with more brilliance in the highs, and cymbal crashes, for example, sound a bit aggressive and loud. Subtlety is also a bit lacking.

Sound quality general comment
  • Original sound fidelity: B
  • Recommendation: D-
  • Personal preference: D-

 

The Lenovo Thinkplus LP1S is not very audiophile-friendly, as the midrange is not very well done.

Sound quality features

Pros
  • Good detail
  • Soft and pleasant sound
  • Excellent resolution
  • Sound field with a sense of depth
  • Good sense of weight

 

Cons
  • Weak core and lacks power in the midrange
  • Significant lack of high-frequency extension

General comment

The Lenovo Thinkplus LP1S are low-cost earphones with high-resolution sound, which may not be bad if you want to enjoy V-shaped, heavy bass and midrange with a sense of depth. However, the reproducibility of the midrange is basically poor, especially the core of instrumental sounds and vocals sounds weak, so it may be quite a choice for some people.
