    I really like the slim and compact apperance and feel. The audio quality is really good too, consider its size. The issue is if you use it for phone calls the mic quality is very poor. This may be due to its small size.

    Bose did a good job with noise control, however, base in the price, I expected pretty much same features a IPods pro (remote sound when I lost them, app to find them by BT, gps location). Good product, below my expectations

    They worked great until the warranty period ended. The functionality was smooth and the sound was quality. The microphone wasn't very good, but it worked. Now the battery doesn't last long enough for a song or a phone call. They're not even heavy enough to be a paperweight so I'm at a loss for what to do with these.
