There are better, cheaper ear buds out there
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound quality. Noise canceling is mediocre. Won’t stay in my ear when running, no matter which size bud I try.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall good pair of headphones. Love the fact that I can wear both at work and adjust the audio with a press of a button so I can still hear what is going on around me. The only thing I would say is that the fitting can be a problem when working out.

Great Amazing earbuds long battery life A+ sound
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these. I have piercings and every review I find on earbuds does not include someone with piercings. First I’m a female not that that matters but I have smaller inner ears so the bose don’t fit but these oh my god after searching and searching I finally found my love of earbuds. The battery life lasts forever it seems. I clean for work so I use them 3 hrs in the am and 6-7 hours at night 5/week and I’ve never had them die or drain it seems. The case is small unlike others I’ve seen. Wireless charger or cord charging. The sound quality to me is amazing !!!! There is an app you can use for settings etc and to change settings and presets. The tap feature actually works well unlike some others I’ve tried. I have the airpod pros and while I love them sometimes I notice they randomly fall out of my ear and they fit nice and snug that and because I use earbuds so much I really wanted an alternative pair for a back up well my AirPods became my backup. I didn’t think I was guna love these as much as I do. One thing to note them come with the memory foam eartips I actually went to Amazon and bought replacements as well as the silicone replacement tips for these and found them to work better only thing is you need the memory foam tips for noise cancellation in the wind. But there easy enough to change out that you can. Also the noise cancellation is amazing I don’t ever put these all the way up for volume but if I did I couldn’t hear for miles lol. If you wana spend the money get these. I’ve tried the new beats and didn’t like them I’ve tried Bose and their too big these are perfect especially for smaller ears.

My Opinion
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The left ear cuts in and out. I really do believe i was sold a used pair, but could not confirm. Overall, they are comfortable and great sounds quality. My only complaint is the left ear bud, and i was over my return date on the product.

Earbud review
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound and noise cancelling. The only complaint is they don’t fit in your ear as snug as some of the other earbuds out there

Posted .Hi CoryC, We're glad that you like the sound and noise canceling function. We're sorry if they don't snugly fit in your ear. We'd love to help you troubleshoot your problem and turn your experience around.
Different sizes of earbud tips are supplied so that you can achieve the maximum effects of the earbuds. Ear canals vary in size from person to person, and can also vary in size from the left to the right sides. To keep the headphones from falling out, please select the right size earbud tips. We also recommend wearing the earbuds properly. Gently pull up on the top of your ears, put the earbud tips in your ear canal, and then twist the earbuds into place. This makes sure the earbuds are firmly in the ear canal.

Best EarBuds
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I think the one of the best EarBuds in the market. The sound quality is great and the noise cancelation is scary good. Lost a flight due to the noise cancelation. One thing I don't like no location feature if you loose them or a speaker to make to noise to find them.

Great sound not a great fit in the ear
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The biggest flaw is the design to not only fit in your ear, but stay in your ear and there’s no way to add an ear strap to hold them in now with the Apple earbuds you can purchase a strap to fit around the ear I returned these for the Apple earbuds instead

Great sound with some issues
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These sound fantastic. Unfortunately the hybrid tips do not work in my ears and are very uncomfortable. Also, the tap functions for each ear are somewhat limited. To fix the comfort issue, I swapped the tips with a silicone pair from a competitor. Comfort and sound are now great.

An Definite Upgrade from AirPods Pro
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had AirPod Pros before these, but after a year the Airpods' noise cancelling starting making high-pitched whining noises if I moved around at all, so that made the NC pretty useless. I was never too impressed with their NC to begin with, and the Sony XM4's NC is amazing in comparison. It blocks out almost everything. There's also location-based or activity-based settings so they will automatically switch noise cancelling settings based on what you prefer for each location or activity (sitting, walking, running, etc.). They have wind cancellation too, which doesn't completely get rid of the wind noise, but it does reduce it noticeably. The speak-to-chat feature is another thing I like that the AirPods didn't have, where just speaking automatically pauses the sound and lets outside sound in for 5, 15, or 30 seconds based on what you prefer. You can also customize equalizer settings and how much sound you want to come through from your environment when the noise cancelling is off. The battery life is better too, and they've never run out of battery over the course of a day, whereas I had to let the AirPods charge periodically to keep them from dying. Last but not least, the sound quality is much, much better on these. The only features I miss are easily/automatically switching from one Apple device to another, and accessing Siri isn't as convenient with these. Overall though I'm glad to have gotten these even though they don't fit into the Apple ecosystem as well. They're definitely worth it so far.

Just what I was looking for.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The last 2 pairs ear buds wouldn’t stay put throughout my gym workout and the sound was just aright, so I decided to give these a try. The sound quality and noise cancellation on these, are by far the best yet. They form to your ear like ear plugs, and you literally cannot hear anything outside of them unless you choose to, with the one tap ambient sound setting. Simply tap it again and it turns your noise cancellation back on. And best of all, they stayed put through my entire session!
