I got these a few months ago. I like them but mainly only use them in my office for Teams calls or listening to much while at work.

The controls on them are pretty simple and work without much hassle. They sync up just fine with my Pixel phone and my work laptop. Pairing was easy once I knew what to do.

They get a bit uncomfortable in my ears after 30+ minutes, so I think I may try to change out the tips and see if that helps. I assume that is the issue.

The noise cancelling is really good. The passthough works great too and it is easy to switch between the two.

I tried running with them once, they did fall out. I have Aftershokz for running though so I don't care about that. I wouldn't trust anything but bone conducting headphones like Aftershokz for running anyway.

They're fine on airplanes, I prefer my over the ear noise cancelling headphones for comfort, however these will allow me to lean my head against the fuselage of the plane if I'm in a window seat. Helpful for sure on long flights.

No complaints with the sound. I'm no audiophile but I feel the sound quality is really nice on these. Even have a decent amount of bass, which is surprising for earbuds. Definitely cannot hold a candle to a high end pair of over the ear headphones, but that was never the point of these, or any earbuds for that matter.

Battery life is pretty good, charging is easy. Never an issue there. I will admit I have a wireless charger on my work desk so I usually have the case fully charged. I've not tried going all day with these, just an hour or two here and there.

Overall I think they're solid and worth the price. Works well for most applications, probably not the best at anything.

Tempted to give these a try. I have airpods pro but they slowly fall out of my ears over 30 mins or so. especially when working out. Tried all the tips. Anyone have feedback on the fit for these? I prefer smaller buds and love ones that you forget you're wearing them

These are smaller than Bose earbuds but are certainly bigger than airpods. These also sit more in your ear. I don't have big ears but these fit great with the right sized tips. Love them for their pass through audio feature when I'm running or want to wear them at work and still hear everyone around me along with my music.

I would not get these, these slip out so bad while working out, I have stopped using them except when I am using it for teams calls or walking

There's only one solution: buds with earloops. You'll never go back.

My biggest problem with earbuds is I can't stand the noise isolation. This is why I prefer Airpods without the tips. I can't block out the external sounds but it doesn't sound like I am in a bottle. Are these any different in that respect to say the Sony MF-1000MX series that I tried and hated?

I had the same issue. Get the comply foam tips and they'll stay in a lot better.

I did the same with eBay comply copies which worked well for 6 months to a year.

Did not care for these. Difficult to get out of the case, ANC and sound quality was not mind blowing like many reviews seem to claim.

You can disable the noise cancellation by holding the buds for a few seconds or via the phone app

Yes, you can do that with most earbuds of any quality but it doesn't stop them from sounding like all the sound is going through a bottle.

I'm waiting for the product post that says "fake wireless" earbuds. Is there wireless earbud that is not truly wireless?

(sarcasm about all the "true wireless" marketing across multiple brands)

Yes, there are wireless earbuds which are not truly wireless because the two earbuds are connected with a wire. Even among wireless earbuds there are those that operate by relaying audio from one earbud to the other which means that only 1 of the earbuds (that connects directly to the phone) can be used on its own.

Just a heads up to anyone who may want to connect these to your TV or media player.... These do not use a low latency codec and there will be a noticeable delay and will be out of sync just enough to be noticeable and massively annoying. If you are watching something on the YouTube app on your phone then it's supposedly supposed to correct the latency behind the scenes... But anything else it won't.

That being said, they work great for most everything else I've used them for. You can also search up about using them with wavelet as someone created a custom profile for these that you can use to import into wavelet to improve the EQ. There is a reddit thread by u/substantial_ad1757 that has the info to import

These don't support AptX Low Latency which is licensed codec but they do support Bluetooth 5.0 which is an open source low latency codec. AptX has been around for longer so its possible the device you tried only had AptX and not Bluetooth 5.0 in which case the earbuds would communicate over the Bluetooth protocol the device supports.
