Expected More for $300
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Literally was hoping these earbuds would be the ones to replace my galaxy buds+. However even though the audio is top notch the biggest issue with the line up remains. Inconsistent battery life where one of the buds has a disproportionately high battery life remaining vs the other. The worst part is its random which one. Honestly sony needs to overhall its software

Great earbuds, just not for me.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have to say, I love the earbuds. Sound quality was great, and the noise canceling for earbuds is amazing. However, it did hurt my ears. Tried all the different sizes and couldn't keep them on for that long. Plus battery life was shorter than I would have liked.

Lacking bass , uncomfortable.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These earbuds may not be suitable for individuals who prefer a bass-heavy sound profile. Additionally, I experienced discomfort in my right ear during use, and on one occasion, the foam tip became lodged in my ear.
