For music lovers or audiophiles, owning a few high-quality 3.5mm HiFi headphones is a must. However, as smartphones increasingly remove the 3.5mm jack in favor of TWS Bluetooth earbuds, these wired headphones often end up forgotten in drawers.
Even though Bluetooth technology has advanced to version 5.4, improving high-fidelity audio reproduction, it still suffers from latency and bandwidth limitations. In contrast, high-end HiFi headphones remain unmatched in sound quality and haven’t been phased out by Bluetooth.
Initially, phone manufacturers included USB-C to 3.5mm adapters, but with the rise of TWS earbuds, these accessories have been "eco-friendly" removed, leaving 3.5mm headphones with no way to connect.
Meizu, with 20 years of acoustic expertise, offers a practical solution for audiophiles—
The Meizu EA2 Fast-Charging DAC/Amp, which not only revives your unused 3.5mm headphones for high-quality audio but also allows simultaneous charging and listening.
Notably, the Meizu EA2

Have you noticed? The Hi-Fi decoding feature that was once heavily promoted by smartphones has almost disappeared. It seems that since the removal of the 3.5mm headphone jack, fewer and fewer phones are investing in this functionality.
This is understandable—without the 3.5mm jack, users are left with only two options: Bluetooth or Type-C adapters. However, most Bluetooth headphones max out at AAC audio quality, which is a dealbreaker for audiophiles. As for Type-C adapters, the included ones usually offer no real "sound quality," lacking sufficient power. In this case, even high-end headphones will produce lackluster sound.
In reality, many music enthusiasts opt for external DAC/amps to achieve high-fidelity audio beyond what their phones or music players can deliver. So in 2025, Hi-Fi DAC/amps are far from obsolete—instead, they’ve evolved into more specialized smartphone accessories. Among them, Lifeme Meizu’s new professional DAC/amp, the Meizu HD1, is a highly recommended choice!

High-Energy Little Companion—Meizu HiFi DAC Earphone Amplifier Experience
We might have gotten used to using TWS earphones, especially since most smartphones have abandoned the 3.5mm headphone jack. However, wired earphones still hold an irreplaceable advantage over TWS earphones in terms of stability, latency, and sound reproduction.
Remember when Meizu released two generations of DAC earphone amplifiers, which sold out instantly upon launch? Now, Meizu’s sub-brand mblu has taken the baton and introduced the mblu HiFi DAC Earphone Amplifier, priced as a true "youth-friendly product."
Packaging
The packaging of the mblu HiFi DAC earphone amplifier follows the style of Meizu’s HiFi DAC earphone amplifier, with the mblu logo printed in the top-left corner.
The back lists the amplifier’s specifications and selling points. It boasts a high signal-to-noise ratio of 124dB, a dynamic range of 111dB, and adaptive impedance support for 16Ω–600Ω loads—impressive specs on paper.
