QuestionI was wondering about the call quality, can people hear you without the mouth piece being close to your mouth? , or any complaints with the phone use. Thank you
Asked 7 years ago by Stone.
- Answer It's not that bad considering the mic is close to your ear. Purchased 2 pairs and called my son while we were in the noisy gym and it sounded good. No issues with clarity.

QuestionCould you sleep with them in your ears
Asked 7 years ago by Michael.
- Answer Answer: Yes, because they don't stick out as far like others (esp. BOSE SoundSport). One thing to add, Samsung Gear 2018 DOES NOT HAVE Bluetooth voice to mouth lag. I watch business news on iPad at the gym streaming video content in and lag drives me crazy. Hope this helps.

QuestionDoes it hold in sweaty ear? which volume of headphones is bigger - jabra elite sport or samsung iconx2018? thanks
Asked 7 years ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Yes they hold in sweaty ear. Actually sweat helps seal the headphone in better. Volume is better on iconx2018... you can hear deeper tones and bass. Plus the call quality when speaking to other people is better.

QuestionMy question is can these be used one at a time , one charging one playing without having to have both of them on simultaneously ? How long do they actually take to charge and how long do they last for music playing from samsung phone? Thanks
Asked 7 years ago by mickaela.
- Answer Yes, you can use them independently, so you can talk on one while the other charges. Battery life depends on a variety of factors, but you can stream music for 3-4 hours per bud. The battery case can fully charge these, but charging time varies. There's also a quick charge mode so 10 minutes of charging should give you an hour of use.

Asked 7 years ago by Trook.
- Answer It actually last 4 hrs of streaming music through Bluetooth with your phone. I get 8 hrs because I use one earphone at a time. The down side is that when the battery is running low the volume gets low too :/ I rather it be stable with the volume even if the battery lasts a few minutes less

QuestionI have two concerns. I perspire a lot when I run. Are these truly stable to wear when heavily exercising? I saw an earlier post that said that Samsung says they are not sweat resistant. Also can you pause, forward and reverse music with them? Thank you.
Asked 7 years ago by Rick716.
- Answer As these are wireless headphones, if there is a lot of movement, there is always a chance they may fall out during exercise. As for sweat resistance, they may be fine unless you get a lot of sweat in your ears. Lastly, you can use them to control playback of music remotely.
