    Got them, noise cancelling and transparency modes have static. Can hear people on calls but they can’t hear me unless in noise cancellation mode which I can’t use because it’s static. Waste of my money

    This was my first time purchasing a used product and soon after the return window closed it stopped working. I am completely disappointed, dissatisfied, upset, unhappy, and frustrated.

    Disconnect frequently. Do not hold a charge. Do not fit or stay in ear. Hangs up calls frequently. Will not disconnect even when charging. They work when they want to.

    The left earbud emits an annoying humming sound. The issue only stopped when anc or aware mode was set to off. This was upon receiving the item. Returned within minutes of getting it in the mail.

    Received and the set is misding 2 1/2 set of tips!! Not acceptable! This is not the type of refurbished Best Buy should offer. If either of the remaining tips don’t work; will return and not purchase from Best Buy in the future.

    They came without the silicone earpieces, and the only option is to go to your nearest location to resolve it with customer service, and the microphone fades in and out, so you won't be able to speak on the phone with them.

    I may have gotten defective ones but the volume wouldn’t match my phone volume . If I had my volume at half the headphones would be off . I deleted them from my device and repaired them and still had the same problem.

    These were refurbished so maybe that is why it had issues. The battery did not last long, the sound came in and out. You had to have your phone very close to the earbuds or it would disconnect

    I purchased a refurbished pair and had to return them 2 days later , due to poor audio issues when listening to music and making calls. I would recommend buying new

    Unfortunately, the noise canceling feature didn’t work. It pushed static through the device. Bought for a gift before a trip, and she didn’t hand time to rectify with the store.

    Full of dark ear wax. Don’t waste your time buying refurbished as they don’t check the items when returned.
