A:AnswerI have actually had conversations with my wife while vacuuming my house. She noticed the noise in the background but we were able to still have a meaningful conversation with the minimal distraction.
A:AnswerFor talking mine lasts for days. I use it while cutting grass for music and it goes all day and then some. Battery will outlast my cell phone battery for sure.

A:AnswerWith my iPhone 6, the range is about 10-15 feet. I will add that walking within 10-15 feet of my microwave when cooking / heating something up causes interference even if I'm holding the iPhone in my hand or pocket. I don't seem to have this issue with portable Bluetooth speakers sitting next to the microwave - ofc the portable speakers appear to be well shielded vs these very light earbuds.
