Battery issue
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was total waste of money. These didn’t lasted a year. These also has the battery issue as other models. One of the side drains battery in 4-5 minutes of use. I am surprised of Sony quality control. How could they can launch a model with faulty battery. Unfortunately I am out of warranty so no luck with customer support too. While the Bose earbud I bought along with this headset is working rock solid.

They’re ok but overpriced.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound quality is ok. The features are all pretty cool. They have a problem with regularly muting. I’m pretty sure there’s a problem with the pressure sensors that are supposed to detect if they fall out of your ear.

Not So Great, Get Only On Sale
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After a year of using can say without a doubt, decent earbuds that should probably only be bought for less with how worse they get the longer you have them. The battery holds way less of a charge than it did new, like 60% now. They constantly disconnect. Samsung updates can just end up breaking them. I still like them, but they aren't worth the price. Only buy it when on sale and get a second pair or backups a few months later cause they will start becoming a problem.

Good, but not great...
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.
