Baseus Encok S06 – review

So, this post is kind of a “sequel” to the previous post, where I went around hunting for a better set of Bluetooth earphones (than the Baseus Encok S06).

That’s the downside to backlit keyboards – once the lights don’t work, you kinda don’t want to use it anymore, EVEN IF the keyboard itself works FINE (as in, you press a key, the correct letter comes up).
