Edit: Did not read the previous post clearly regarding yellow.
Amazon has matched the price for the same colors.

They do NOT offer any cool features like ambient sound on or noise cancelling. I've had mine since January. The bad stuff that I've experienced so far is loss of connectivity to the point that I have to reset them. Also mine can't change tracks/adjust volume on the left. The right one works fine and does control the volume for both. Both sides are supposed to work. The main issue i have is the battery life is degrading in one more than the other. I always use them 2 at a time, but one dies maybe 30 or so minutes faster than the other. Very annoying, but that will probably happen with all true wireless headphones eventually. My AirPod pros do it, but it's about 10 minutes before the other one dies.
If the above doesn't scare you and you're good with the price, pick them up. Connectivity to your Apple devices is seamless for the most part. I didn't make a lot of calls on mine, but no one had issues with what I was saying when I was on a call.

I think that the sound is far superior to the regular AirPods. I have not used the AirPods Pro so I can't comment on that. Phone call quality is excellent. I use them for meetings and everyone can always hear me fine. For the price I think that this is a good deal.
1. These are the worst style for wearing with face masks.
2. Seal/isolation is really bad for an in ear. Without music playing, it almost feels/sounds like you don't have a seal. And yes, I know i have a seal and blah blah blah. I've been using IEMs for over a decade.
3. Sound quality wise, they aren't bad. It isn't going to be pumping bass like the typical Beats, which can be good or bad, depending on the user.
4. Mic is decent. People can hear me just fine.
5. Battery life is great. Can easily get 7 hours at least and they are rated for 9.
6. Huge case so it's not easily portable. It can fit in a guys jean pocket but not preferable.
7. I had issues with it connecting to my iPhone properly if I only use 1 at a time. It sometimes only sees one of them, so the one I put on has no sound. End up have to put it back in case, close case, open case, and pull out the side I want to use. This may need to be repeated several times.
Overall, I'm not very impressed. These would be perfect for working out in though.
One huge problem... one of the earbuds constantly runs down in battery or fails to the charge when sitting in the case.
When they do decide to work, sometimes only one of the earbuds will connect and I'll have to shuffle them back into the case and then they'll work right.
Just a frustrating product.. especially when you want to pop them in real quick and go for a run or something.
I have sent them into Apple Twice. Both times, they just sent them back and said there's no problem.
I tried to get a refund, but Apple doesnt support this beats stuff in the same way as their own products. They wont just give me a new pair. I have to keep submitting for repairs.
I much prefer my earpods even if they aren't as secure as these in the ear.
