The best so far
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've tried almost every wireless earbuds from apple, LG, Sony, Jbl, LG, anker, etc and these are simply the best and the only pair honestly worth over $100. The sound quality is similar to wired earbuds in the 250-400$ range, they can connect to any 2 devices at a time (not just Apple or just Android or just pc) so you can hear your phone and pc without having to reconnect to Bluetooth, the noise canceling is good. The only real issue is that the foam tips it comes with are too rubbery and chafe my inner ear canal where they sit. I got comply foam tips instead and now these earbuds are pretty much perfect to me

Great sound, uncomfortable fit
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound was honestly amazing! But the noise canceling and comfort of the headphones made them 3-4 stars to me. The headphones were very uncomfortable to wear after a long periods of time or if you fall asleep on them (like on a plane). Compared to the AirPods they AirPods for me have a better fit and noise canceling. For sound though it definitely goes to the Sony. It may be because I have smaller ears so the more average ear may have better luck with fit and noise canceling.

Posted .Hi Carolina, Thanks for the feedback! We're glad that you like the sound quality. We recommend trying different ear tip sizes and experimenting with the positioning to achieve a snug fit. You can change the earbud tips to ones that fit more snugly in your ears. When changing the earbud tips, try the earbud tip sizes in order from the larger ones to the smaller ones. The most suitable size of the earbud tips for left and right ears may be different. Please follow this link for more details:

Good or bad?
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound quality is amazing, just some of the features dont work as well as you would expect them to. The google assistant can be a bit frusterating, and the the touch sensitivity for headpjones isnt that good. i have to tap a few times to turn on/off noise cancellation. Noise cancellation sometimes turns on/off by itself idk if its an issue w just my earphones alone, maybe cause i habe longer hair? When your working out you can somewhat hear headphones bouncing in ear. I love thebsound quality tho, makes it worth it. Wish theyd fix the additional features
