Starting off with the good. The sound quality is great. The touch controls are responsive. The bad starts off with a battery life of just about 2 hours. I have difficulty steaming music from my phone by Bluetooth.

Battery life on these could be better and controls are confusing (easily left on). They do sound great though and are very comfortable

These are nicely designed and function fairly well. The truly wireless design and nice form are the highlights. Heart rate monitoring and internal storage are also cool features. The downside is touchy connection especially for hear rate monitoring. Finally the reason I would not recommend or purchase these again is that the actual battery life when streaming from phone and monitoring heart rate is a pathetic 30-40 minutes. I tested several times and could not get more than 45 minutes from full charge to power off. If you switch to internal memory for music and turn off heart rate monitor you get about an hour. Overall a great idea which I'm sure will improve with future models but falls very short with this release.

I love how compact these headphones are. I use in conjunction with my Samsung phone and Fit Gear 2. Only complaint is the battery life.

The battery is the only gripe I have about these guys. They fit fine and are lightweight enough to use for a long time.

Great sound quality. Only downside is the short battery life when using Bluetooth. Longer battery life when downloading music onto it.

This has got amazing sound quality and flexibility but the battery time is very less. Also notso good for phone calls as you cannot easily switch between the buds during the call if battery is low on one

The earbuds are very comfortable. I use 1 at a time, so the battery life complaint doesn't apply to be as much. If you use both at the same time the battery life is very short (~1 hours-ish), but if you are like me (using 1 earbud at a time), then theses are a good choice. When using 1 at a time, 1 earbud tends to last closer to 1.5 hours (most likely because the earbuds don't have to communicate with each other). )If they could double the battery life, these would be the best thing since [insert phrase].

Battery life is a challenge. Fits great in ears. Didn't realize only one works for phone service although you can select right or left. Not worth the cost. Should have waited until battery improved.

I've been known to own quite a few sets of head/earphones of various qualities and styles. I picked these up to use when I'm working out and for the first few weeks they worked great. While running, they stayed secure in my ears, I never worried about them falling out. The tap system to change songs, adjust volume and answer calls was very easy to get used to. The only downside was that they stopped holding a charge. The dock that they come in was draining the life out of the earbuds until they no longer worked. Samsung is aware of the problem and many people have replaced their units under warranty. Be wary when purchasing these or wait for a revised model.

I am an extreme athlete. Meaning, when I run I'm sprinting to other standards and when I sweat it looks like I got a dunked into a pool. The device as a first of its kind is not bad. However, it does fall out more than the previous lock and twist earphones and sometimes it stops thinking somehow you pressed pause. The battery life is kind of short and the heart sensor can become mis-positioned. Aside from that it is a good device and I am looking forward to the next of its generation.

The sound is great, but they started hurting my ears after a bit. They were very easy to pair with my iPhone. I worried that they might fall out, but they never felt like they were going to.

It sounds good but battery life is too short on bluetooth and it take a sec to connect to my S7 sometimes. Love the concept and the lack of wires. Love the 4gig of storage on the headphones.

The battery dies quickly and does not hold a charge very long even with the additional battery keeper. But the sound was very nice and I did use them for a few weeks before returning them.

Bought these to replace my wired earbuds. Sound quality is good and no more dangling cords. They were easy to pair with my phone, Firestick, and tablet. Very happy with this product

I am a hardcore runner and I bought these so that I wouldn't have my Samsung s6 Edge Plus strapped to my arm when I was running 10- 20 miles.
They did a great job with fitting in my ear tight and being comfortable. The sound quality was good and music was easy to use. The heart rate monitor seemed to be very accurate and the head phone gave great read outs during my runs.
What I am not liking and may result in me returning them or exchanging for something else is that the distance that they read is completely inaccurate. The headphones told me I ran 9.3 miles and when I measured it out I actually ran 11.7. This effects not just the distance, but the pace as well.
