    I hate these earphones. If I wasn’t 16 days outside of my return window they would be going back. They randomly switch between sound types even with downloading the app and setting it through there. They do hold a charge for many hours, but the ambient, noise cancel feature switching is annoying, and there are “buttons” on the side of the right earphone that if you accidentally hit one it makes a change as well. Super bummed - should have stuck with Bose.
