I own 2 pairs of these and really like them. Also, I have a slickdeals level problem buying earbuds... seriously, who needs 20+ pairs... anyways, here's a few of my personal pro's and con's.

Pro's:

The passive sound is amazing when wearing them outside the house. I can still clearly hear everything that's going on around me while walking the dogs or grabbing groceries. This was the goal with this model when I initially purchased them. I liked it so much I bought a backup pair in white.

Inside, it's even better. I wear them a lot while laptop gaming on the couch when my partner and I are passively watching tv. I can still have a conversation and hear whatever is on the tv while also having game audio.

Battery life is pretty damn good. They haven't died on me during use yet, and I've had some pretty long stretches wearing them (4-6 hours) continually.

Cons:

The fit. Man, these are one of the most polarizing styles I've ever seen. My partner and my son both can't get a good fit no matter what wing tips we put on them. I have pretty standard ass ear holes so it's not an issue, but if you have tiny ports, they may not be stay in.

No wireless charging... seriously, it's the 2020's everything should have wireless charging at this point.

Sound quality. I mainly use them for things I'm not too interested in a audiophile experience with. If this were to be my daily driver I'd be dissapointed about the sound profile. Thankfully they're not. If I need that, I move to the XM3's or XM4's or Bud's Pro's or Bud's Pro 2's.... this may be a problem. Dammit SlickDeals.

Anyways, feel free to AMA.

Cheers,
Vulgar

Tried these and really wanted to like but weren't good fit.

The Samsung live buds (beans) are the only best game in town still for the open style. Have a few pairs and everyone at home loves those. Get them if you haven't.

These are my go to earbuds. Most comfortable I've ever used. Doesn't create any pressure in the ear canal and can hear everything around me. They are good for phone calls as well. Getting a bit older so just got the bose ultra open and while they sound better not as comfortable for longer sessions. Sometimes it sits comfortably but other times hurts a bit.

Just a heads up, I just returned my pair from this seller. The left ear was blown out/scratchy and it didn't come with all the ear tips.

Any opinion on the mic quality? Main reason I want to try them is I find "open" buds keep my ears from... sweating for lack of a better term. My buds live (the beans!) that i own like 4 of help a lot with this. Figured these would be even better on that comfort end, but curious about the voice quality because my beans suck on phone calls.
I did a few calls with them and was told they sounded ok. About as good as the beans, but I really cram the beans in my ear so they sometimes got more muffled than a regular wear.

Personally, the Anker Soundcore Liberty 2 & 3 Pro's have the best mic I've found so far (maybe slightly beat out by the Airpod Pro's, but I've only ever used those with a MacBook for work).

$25.99 accepted. Not expecting much from these but for this price kind of willing to give them a try.

I also own these and have had them since around the time they released. I have a lot of the same opinion that many others have. I used Aftershokz for years but I prefer these while biking because I can comfortably wear my sunglasses. Other than the lack of wireless charging, the thing I really hate is how slippery the damn case is.

Man, these have some really rough reviews on Amazon. Bad enough that I would rather invest in a well reviewed, lesser known brand than these. 27% of reviews are 2-stars or less. Something tells me they don't get any better or more reliable as refurbs.

So silly, you could have offered 25.99 and they would have accepted. You could have gotten so much slicker of a deal!

Bought a "refurbished" pair of these from secondipity last year to replace my other pair that quit taking a charge.

They were filthy and caked with the previous owners earwax.

Maybe you can help. I'm looking for an inexpensive set of earbuds for my 14yr old to wear to school. He loses everything so the set of AirPods I gave him (my old ones) I don't allow to go to school with him. I would like them to be $40 or less but be durable enough to use for at least a couple of months.

One reason Jlab has taken the usa market share for cheap ear buds - good performance at bottom barrel prices.

The first recommendation link for Jbuds Pro earbuds attached together with a neck wire is that it's impossible to lose one earbud or the case.

These are amazing. I would even say they may be my favorite and I have some high end buds and headsets. The issue I run into is that, while they let sound pass through, you bring the volume up and it defeats the purpose of being "aware". It would be the best of its kind. I hate the fit. Absolutely doesn't fit. Zoom calls are amazing.

I bought these from this store last year. One of the earbuds failed, looked like it was poorly assembled since half of the donut part came off. The seller refused to refund me or send me a new earbud. Not buying from them again, terrible customer service.

these either fit in your ears or they really really don't fit at all.
Mine always felt like they were falling out and hit the ground many times. I had to return.

Every other earbud i've ever tried fit perfectly.
