# About chi-fi

- **Page**: https://chi-fi.top/about

chi-fi is a short list of budget gadgets worth buying on AliExpress: in-ear earphones, wireless earbuds, USB DACs, gamepads, retro handhelds, gaming mice and keyboards.

AliExpress has thousands of listings for every one of these, most of them near-identical and hard to compare. Each pick here gets one page that says what the gadget is in plain terms, what it costs, what it does well and where it falls short, with a link to buy it.

## Who it is for

Shoppers who want a good cheap gadget for themselves or as a gift, and would rather read a short opinionated list than a spec sheet.

## Research, not a test lab

The picks are curated from published reviews, specifications and community opinion. They are not hands-on tests, and there are no scores or star ratings on this site. [How we pick](https://chi-fi.top/how-we-pick) explains the process.

## How chi-fi is paid for

Every “Buy on AliExpress” button is an affiliate link. If you buy through it, chi-fi may earn a commission from AliExpress at no extra cost to you.
