This doesn't have very good battery life, FYI, you're much better off going with Jlab/Jbuds, which will be half the price. Or go with a better Plantronics model for triple the cost.

Not about number of hours, but rather not actually coming up to the number of hours that you advertise in your specs. Check the reviews. Cheers

I don't need to check reviews because I have one. Mine has no such issues. I get solid 6 hours out of it.

Since there's no promo code needed, check out Google Express. Free shipping and 20% or more if you have an account that is still "new". Ends up being $22.05 after taxes for me.

Nice! Thanks for sharing that, even though it requires a new account trick.

My pleasure. Nice find yourself.

I just wish there were some decent headphones with Qi charging cases out there. My children are for some reason incapable of plugging something in to charge it.

Haha. Technology is making us so lazy!
The other day, I found myself thinking if I could set up a voice system to flush toilet LOL

It's good. Of course, we don't want to compare this to over-the-ear high end headphones like Sony, but for this type of in-ear headphones, this is one of the best, not to mention you get a good warranty from a trusted company (in the past, i used their warranty, and it was pretty easy to get a new replacement).

I don't know. My understanding is that google express wants you to return to a store directly. But, honestly, if you don't like it, I'd just sell it for $30 or so on classifieds. I'm sure you can find a buyer easily (I bet you can find someone to buy it for $40 even).
