I would recommend this to a friend Great job Best Buy!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound and quality. Great price. Easy online purchase and home delivery.
I would recommend this to a friendA different way of hearing the world
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got these as gifts for family members who like to go on outdoor walks. The ability for the ear buds to not actively block outside noise is great. The only minir annoyance is thst the battery level between L and R is different. One will go to 90% before the other, but ultimately does not impact performance. Would recommend!

Amazing product
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is definitely best one! Quality is top! I would like to get one more as a gift
I would recommend this to a friend A specific fit.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pro: They are a great device in concept. Con: Not particularly useful to me in practice. They do not fit properly for me, falling off my left ear constantly. There are fewer problems with the other ear, likely because it is a slightly smaller size (protected the right better during the HtH days). For both, the noise escape is enough for anyone nearby to know exactly what is being listened to. When offered to my wife to try, she pulled them off immediately; whenever there was a beat, she could feel them buzz against the back of her ear and it was uncomfortable. I expect that they would work really well for someone that they can fit and doesn't mind the movement against their ear.
