It ranges from 5.8:1 to 4.7:1 depending on scene complexity.
Keep in mind I calculated these values using the 8-bit pallete-based framebuffer that DOOM uses, not a 24-bit one that a regular RGB buffer would use.

This was a stretch goal, multiplayer. One earbuds versus the other. It's not that hard to implement but I've got a few other things to clear away first.
Using them for distributed computation though? interesting use of free will xD

The standalone viewer (connected directly to the earbuds) also works on mobile: https://files.catbox.moe/pdvphj.mp4
No touch controls though, it just plays the intro loop

To be honest, I've never actually used them for their intended purpose.
No idea what the comfort or audio quality is like.
There's a Pinebuds channel on the Pine64 discord, you can ask questions there :)

Hi, I ported DOOM to the Pinebuds Pro earbuds.
It's accessible over the internet, so you can join the queue and play DOOM on my earbuds from your PC!
More info as well as links to the github repos can be found on the site.

Heard about this from signalis, cool game inspired by a cool book.
