Mediocre ear buds
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I tried these buds out for a week. I work construction and wanted something that i could wear during the day in order to take calls without holding my phone. Honestly, they worked, but my 2 stars is in comparison to the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro. The Sony buds are big and bulky, and one actually fell out of my ear while walking. The sound of music and bass is mediocre, compared to the Galaxy buds. The price was also big and bulky. All in all, not enough product or quality for double the price of the Galaxy Bud 2 Pros.

Not Noise Cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The noise cancelling on these is terrible. I had the previous version and there was zero outside noise unless you selected ambient noise. This version doesn't block all of the ambiet noise, it rather supresses it.
