good earbuds
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these and would give these 5 stars for fit and comfort but the left one sounds like the speaker is busted. I exchanged the first set and the 2nd pair is the same way.

Great sounding, but need work on phone audio.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I initially and still love the sound of these earbuds. My only problem is that the phone call audio is very poor. i was not able to hear the person I was talking to very well when using these. I have tried using these in both audio modes, but the results are the same.

||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The item was perfect thanks Best Buy for having the most great items but the only thing I didn’t like is they are hard to star in your ear. I prefer one that holds on so that I don’t lose it.

The clamping on the ear are not strong at all
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Thet don't clamp on good into your ear. I almost lost them about 100 times to expensive to loose them becuase the quality of grip on them is no good. The sound is amazing , but becuas they are far from your ear the sound is super low. I put them into my ear canal the sound is amazing. I rather keep my Shocks they sound clear and louder than the boose. I 2as not happy becuase the sound is to far from you ear. I went to a store to teach me about the app to make them louder, but they still didn't sound as loud and clearl as my shocks.

Comfortable, but the sound could have been better.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So comfortable. I just wished that the sound didn’t leak. If the speaker angled in my ear more, it would sound 10 times better.
