Super sensitive sensors, easy fix, immaculat sound
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.At first I was frustrated with how sensitive the sensor controls were because I wanted them for the gym but then learned they can be turned off by downloading the app, it’s been an amazing sound experience. I do wish there was a version with actual buttons for physical activity purposes but I’m not complaining this the best sound experience I’ve ever had for when I want to be in my zone & forget the world! 9/10
