Have these. I bought them based on Wirecutter review. Regret it. The sound is good, but the mics really suck. If you want to have conversations on this, forget about it. This is the one time wirecutter really screwed up, and all the anker fangirls can go pound sand.

I have 3 pairs of these earbuds & they are excellent with sound quality, call quality, Bluetooth connection & app functions. I wish I had bought them for this amazing $54 price. My only complaint (as is with earbud styles) is that they can & will slip out of the ears unless you use SpinFit brand silicone earbud tips & clean both your ear canals & the earbud tips with alcohol before putting them in. Do that & they stay secure for a long while. Skin oils & sweat will eventually "lubricate" enough to work them loose but that's nature.

A really interesting mix of opinions and reviews here. I have these, along with probably 10 other TWS earbuds. It's frankly one of the most boring but one of the BEST.

Best features: ANC is pretty good, transparency mode is pretty good, sound is pretty good. Wireless charging case. Multipoint.

For some reason, these are one of the only sets that stay in my ears when I run. (Yes, even the Jaybird Vista 2 work their way out unless I wipe them during my run. OK, the Beats Fit Pro do stay in but "loosely" if you know what I mean.).

I haven't done too many calls with them, but the few I have done indoors have been fine with no issues.

With all the sets I have I am tempted at this price even though I obviously have no need for them. On my last trip to Europe I primarily used them on the plane, even more than my Bose 700s, Sony XM4, and my Beats Fit Pros.

It's funny how everyone has such different views on these, myself included.

I had these (returned them) and my view was that they sounded fantastic, surprisingly solid ANC, and so-so call quality. My issue was that they put this great product together in a flimsy cheap shell that kind of jiggle when walking/jogging.

My husband bought these, and I was about to re-order a pair because his stopped working. They stopped pairing when phone calls would come. They're only a few months old. I decided to go with a different brand that's on sale😅

I concur, I have these and have the exact same issue. They are fine for audio but the mics are almost completely useless.

now it is my turn to voice my opinion Smilie

. I had this pair for almost a year, I love it. It fits my ear perfectly and i do not feel hurt after using it long period of time.

I have been using these and the call quality is very unreliable. Many times people cannot hear my audio clearly. Good for music and video playback.

i would rather buy this for $54 than paying $100 or $200 for airpod pro 2.

very happy with it, great sound, good noise block and very good fit.

I'll add that I also have these and for the most part, they have been great. My only two complaints are that they don't stay secure for very long, and as others have mentioned, the mic quality is garbage at times. On most cell phone calls they seem to be alright, but I've tried using these on zoom calls and at least 50% of the time I get complaints that people can't understand me. To put that into perspective, if I switch to my laptop's built in microphone instead, they say they can hear me great. So it's that bad. All that being said, I'd buy them again in a heartbeat if you're not using them for calls often.

The Soundcore by Anker Life A1 seem like a better value.

Bought these and have been using them 10 hours a day every day as I work construction and these help pass the day and help block loud noises.
I go through a lot of under $100 headphones including Sonys and Bose and Jabra that I have bought through slick deals.
So far these are the best. Sound is as good as any under 100 headphone I have used. Much louder volume then others (not sure if that's a good thing) Block sound very well, great battery life, light, comfortable and no complaints about mic quality.
The case and headphones feel like cheap plastic. If you use iPhone they are not as compatible as iPods but sync well. Also maybe I am doing something wrong but touch controls on earbuds is not responsive all the time. Especially for volume control.
But even factoring these downsides in, If you don't want to spend over 100, I think these are hard to beat.
