    Good quality, but some items not included.

    Starting off, these earbuds are amazing. I recommend them and I was lucky enough to get them early. However, they were shipped with the insignia brand ear tips, which unfortunately need to be taken off if you want to charge the earbuds in their case. It also didn't come with the wing bands that the buds usually come with. This is quite annoying because you need to take the tips off every time you need to charge your earbuds. Thats my only negative on this, though. Everything else was great!

    I purchased these refurbished. They fit in the canal comfortably enough so that I forget I have them on. The noise cancelling is the best thing about them. They have amazing sound, it's just that blocking out all ambient noise makes them sound even better. I connect them to my television and I feel like I am in a theater. I lost the case in TJ Maxx. That forced me to buy another pair. The left earbud of the first pair has stopped working. Maybe that was the original problem. I do have a warranty, but I don't havethe case, so I can't get them repaired. The battery lasts me through three movies, and still juice left. I have several pairs of earbuds. These are my go-to, just because they sound amazing and I can ignore everyone I don't wanna talk to. Even with the music off, noise cancellation works like a charm. They can also be located on Find My Device. As soon as I open the case, my phone connects to them.

    Most comfortable buds with great ANC.

    I love these buds. They are the most comfortable ones I have (I have quite a few, too many probably, including other Samsung buds, Sony buds, Anker Soundcore buds, JLab buds just to name some off the top of my head). My Sony WF-1000XM4 earbuds I think have better sound quality, but these are better than the Sony ones for just about everything else, including ANC and audio passthrough/ambient sound. That being said these were like 1/3 the price MSRP and they are way better than 1/3rd the audio quality. You cant beat these for the price. I wish Samsung would release a premium audio version of these as I returned the Pro 2 buds shortly after buying them as the Sony XM4 sound better and these are much more comfortable for my ears. For now though I ended up rebuying these after I lost the first pair, so that should tell you something.

    Great sound cancellation. Sound is well balanced and easy to hear. Fits well in the ear and in the charging case. Really impressed and better than my iPods. Comparable to my Jabra.

    The ANC is actually very good. I can use them on walks and the sounds of traffic doesn't hinder my music enjoyment at all. The pass through mode is so-so, but occasionally useful. They sound very good. The in ear detection is extremely useful. I find the fit to be superb as well, but the wing-tips might not be for everyone. Sometimes I find it a little tricky to adjust the earbuds without pausing the music, but not a big deal.

    Refurbished Earbuds Review I recently purchased a pair of refurbished earbuds, and I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the overall performance. The sound is good and my friends can hear clearly when they call. Its better than beats with noise cancelling and no sweat on the ears for the summer. The only downside the charge doesnt last as long.

    Its alright, there is nothing wrong with this. But you are not getting the right colored matched ear tips, no different size wingtips, and the box was destroyed. Whatever, for 45 bucks for pretty good sounding earbuds with noise cancellation and ambient mode, you cant beat this deal.

    It fits very well. The sound quality is good but does not match the more expensive options out there. I believe it's worth it for the money. I did buy an open-box item and it was about 50% cheaper, but it did not come with the the original ear tips, and the charging cord was wrong type, but that is on Best Buy. I recommend it.

    Be wary when buying as "Geek Squad refurbished"

    The earbuds are fine, sound good and connect easily. However, it is not clear what Geek Squad's "certification" means, because my pair came without the L size wingtips and only two pair of ear tips instead of three. If they would do a thorough job, this should not happen. Especially the wing tips should not be missing, so I'm disappointed. Otherwise, the rest of the product looks like new.

    Affordable, quality performance, fitting comfortably. As a erfurbished unit, it came with a missing pair of tips. I called the customer service but unfortunately they couldn't do anything about it. I just decided to keep it and it works just fine. Since the current tips ( one of of two pairs) fit great, it doesn't matter much.
