Great Sound AND Noise Cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing noise cancelling and sound quality ear buds. However, the foam tips become uncomfortable for my ear shape after a few hours even using the SS size along with an abrupt buzzing in the middle of music recently. Other than that, really solid ear buds.

Small but powerful
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sounds is great, noise canceling is superb. Software you download is intuitive and really adds to the overall experience. Only slight knock is controlling volume when you on LD y have 1 earbud in. Since left is volume down and right is up, when you only ise 1 you can only go in that direction.

Great earbuds!!! So far ......
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I absolutely love the new earbuds they are substantially smaller than the XM4s hopefully they will have better battery life than the old ones as mine pretty much wouldn't even work anymore. The more I looked into it online the more problems I saw people having with the battery as well.
