    It sounds good and is easy to set up. I love the sound and the battery life is no joke. The earbuds also give other custom options within the coonected app.

    Good earbuds but have some battery issue

    This review is written after one year and 2 months of purchase. The earbud has been working OK but as soon as I got the earbud, I noticed there're some uneven battery drain from the earbuds, right earbud usuall drains faster than the left ear. I thought this was a minor problem and ignored but recently the problem got worse since right earbud cannot be full charged. When I take out the earbuds from the case after a full charge during the night, the left earbuds shows 100% and right one only shows 85%, I think the battery for the right one will die out soon also I'm out of warranty..

    Great earbuds, sound is good and connection is better than other options. I preferred the whites ones though. The sand ones look too much like hearing aids with the size.

    These pair of earbuds are very good. They fit well in your ears and don't come out easily. They are small and lightweight you barely feel them in your ears. You can sleep with them on and you won't feel uncomfortable or have sore ears. They sound good, they do lack a bit of base. One bad thing about them, they last about 4 1/2 hours on a single charge after that you charge them in the case

    This is my second unit. The first one broke after 9 months. I use it every day for work. It is very comfortable to wear 6-7 hours per day. Overall, I am happy with the performance. Audio canceling and audio quality are not top-notch in the market but I am willing to sacrifice those for comfort and easy wearability.

    Frustrating battery life

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    These earbuds were great for the first year maybe a little less. Then after an update the earbuds don't last more than 7 minutes on a phone call. I would not recommend these to anyone else. They are now e-waste on my shelf. I've resorted back to my Galaxy buds that have been working like new for 5 years now even after being put through the washer once and multiple sessions in saunas at the gym.

    One of the best fit earphones I've ever used with great sound quality and base and nose cancellation. But after a year of use, the left earphone doesnt last for more than 5 minutes, looks like a faulty battery. I had bought 2 of these, the other one was for my brother. That one also has the same issue after 6 months of use.
