Almost, but not quite for me right
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best sound, and I liked the equalizer on the app, but I could not wear them for more than 20 minutes. Not made for my head size/shape. I didn't like the swiping action for volume and skipping songs either, I prefer buttons.

I love them
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these earphones. I even had the prior generation model. After upgrading because the model I had broke after about 5 years of wear and tare. I eventually encountered a problem with the automatic audio adjustment. The problem was fixable through the app I think that may have caused it in the first place. After getting past that issue(check the online Manuel if you have this problem) the love I originally developed for this has returned.
