    Do not buy for the noise cancelling.

    The rating says "average" but I'd say, they're okay. Firstly, do not buy these for the noise cancelling. It's basically non existent, it's not even a feature in my opinion. I'll start with the good - I love the concept of open-style earbuds. Like the original airpods, these don't plug up your ears. This is incredibly convenient if you're at work and still need to communicate with people, it's the entire reason I bought them. These are great for that, and since they don't get very loud (more of a negative there) there's a lot of space for me to turn the music down really low so I can still hear it when things get quiet and nobody's talking. People are also complaining that they're uncomfortable, of course they are at first anything that isn't a normal silicone tipped bud is gonna take some getting used to. Stick it out for a day or two and you won't even notice them anymore. And I haven't had many falling out problems, far less than I'd expect from these BEANS. But I don't see that as much as of pro and more of base expectations from $170 earbuds. Also did I mention they look like BEANS? How could you not love the beans?! Well... Now the bad - First off, the case feels terrible. It feels cheap, looks cheap, and squeezing it has this horrible crunch that just, again, feels really cheap. They fall out of their box real easy, it's the regular galaxy buds but worse. I had to get an expensive shell to go around it just to keep them closed as I like to hook them to my belt loop. While they're in your ear you may notice (like I did) that throughout the day they may reposition to where the primary speaker that shoots down your ear canal will get covered up by part of your ear. You'll then start cranking the volume, and when you finally go to fix the bud suddenly things get REALLY LOUD. I didn't start noticing it until yesterday, but now that I have it's a pretty obvious problem. The touch controls on these SUCK, they literally had to make a part on the wearable app to teach you how to tap your bud correctly. It took forever but I finally got it down, you just have to tap it way harder than I was comfortable with at first coming from the original galaxy buds. Also half the time when I go to pause or unpause it just records to taps and skips track which is frustrating. Finally, anytime I've used the noise cancelling (or even the opposite ambiet sound function) I've gotten weird moments where it feels like the bud is adjusting to the environment and starts making this quiet crackling sound for a few seconds. It wasn't often but it caught me off guard when it did, cause again, I could literally feel it adjusting. It's definitely a weird feeling. I just don't bother with those functions. Overall - They're just okay. I'm going to keep using them. They're really convenient for my work and I don't intend on switching to airpods and being a hypocrite, but I have to admit the temptation is really there. I'm in such disbelief by how bad the noise cancelling is, and the fact that they not only spent the money trying to add that feature but actually tried using it as a selling point is unbelievable. They're good as open style earbuds that allow you to hear your environment while listening to your podcasts or whatever. These are absolutely NOT noise cancelling or sound isolating whatsoever. It pains me to say it, but if you're not like me and are willing to give Apple your money, but want an open style earbud, get airpods. 4/10 wouldn't but again but I'll keep them I guess

    I use them for work (I do masonry and concrete work) and they dont fall out. When I look up the sound goes away but I dont look up at all for work or at home. Home use it's great too, the battery life was better then I what I heard. They do feel uncomfortable at first but after you get used to them you dont even feel them. They sound great also l, my first pair of truly wireless earbuds and I live them. I also bought them cause they look like beans lol.

    I love my headphones. This is my 3rd pair in the last 8 months. I kept dropping the case on the street somewhere. I brought a case this time, (buy your case) Spare you the tears of not having 1. It didn't stop me from buying them cause the headphones are that good. But the discontinuation of this specific product has me in tears

    Purchased for my wife as a birthday gift, she really loves them as the sound is crystal clear, great battery life and loves the color as it matches her smartwatch. She also stated that she likes the fit of the earbuds at they don't hurt or irritate her skin which is a huge plus as that what fails when it comes to my wife's standards for ergonomically design.

    Admittedly, I don't wear headphones terribly often, and when I do they tend to be my SteelSeries Arctis gaming headphones as I've been told chatting via Discord with these do not sound good. However, for the sporadic times I'm watching something on my phone so as to not take over the TV (or even pairing them to the TV if I'm up at odd hours of the morning/night), or listening to music without forcing the rest of the house to indulge in whatever I feel like listening to, I do want a pair of headphones that are comfortable, discreet, wireless, with good and clear sound that would satisfy a former musician who appreciates good audio without delving into the realm of being an audiophile. For all of that, these headphones are great! When paired to the TV (Sony Bravia) the sound can cut out on occasion, but not so much that I mind. I do wish that when on-calls the reported audio was better; as-is I can't say I recommend them for chatting with anyone, and it's a bummer having to switch out to a different headset if I don't want to hold my phone to my ear, but when paired to my Galaxy phone and just wanting to immerse myself in music while doing household chores or something of that nature, I really can't complain.

    This was a gift to my wife after upgrading her phone from an S9 to S23 Ultra. She was hesitant at first as she has small ears but loved them as there is no port that goes inside your ear canal. ANC is good enough for her especially working from home that there are kids and a pet in the household. Helps block unwanted noise. Oh and she loved this color eventhough she had to wait as this store was out of stock for this color.
