    I think it's great that you can pair two the devices without having to disconnect one. The sound quality and the noise canceling works phenomenal.

    TLDR: They always felt like they were falling out, or actually fell out. I didn't keep these long enough to properly review everything about this product because they simply would not stay in my ears. Extremely disappointed that something this highly recommended had a fit so poor, even for me. I'll give them 2 stars because the build quality and case are excellent quality. I honestly have a hard time with earbuds staying in. The little ear fin that the Sennheiser Momentum headphones come with are with every extra cent.
