A Great Replacement for Logitech GFits

I wish there was a way to do 4.5 because there are some minor issues, but overall these are very good. I switched over from the Logitech GFits to these and they outperform the GFits in every way except for comfort/fit and connection resilience.
CONS:
Steel Series GG app is better than Logitech GHub but that really isn't saying much. The interface is cumbersome to say the least and while updating firmware for these was a breeze compared to the GFits this software could be improved significantly with some QoL improvements.
These really do not fit me well at all. Trying all 3 tips that came with them I have various issues compared to the GFits. They fall out easily either due to the tips being too small or too big and don't expect to be able to do things like smile or eat food while you have them in without risking them dropping.
PROS:
Something I didn't realize was a feature is actually one of my favorite parts. If you're connected to the 2.4 dongle in "pc" mode you still receive calls/audio in bluetooth mode pretty seemlessly. So if you're working or gaming and you get a call the bluetooth audio overrides the game audio which is perfect for me.
These are pretty high quality and water resistant as well. Having push button control rather than a "touch" interface on the ear pieces is kind of strange but it does prevent accidental activations for the most part.

Cons outweigh the pros on these. Great fit in my ears, but they’re not very loud and the microphone is terrible. I could not get them to work properly in steel series software which they seemed to rely heavily on for quality… I'm sure that will be fixed with an update. With that being said, the sound quality wasn’t terrible but they are not worth the price in my opinion.

I was really excited to try these out at first. The sound quality was great, the controls worked perfectly, and they fit just like you’d expect from in-ear buds. No connectivity issues either, which was a plus. Unfortunately, I ended up returning them after just two days because the left bud started having problems. The sound was too low, and the ANC would glitch and make a loud noise. It was disappointing since I wanted to like them, but those issues were a dealbreaker. I wish I had more time with them to give a fuller review.

The sound is fine for me, I can customize the profiles to whatever I need. Not only can I use the 2.4 mode on my laptop, but it will also passthrough any notifications from my phone. They pair with any system. I mean its the best for all gaming options.
