Previously, I owned and returned the BC1 because with the default settings (Baseus EQ + bass boost) they had a lot of distortion on bassy tracks. With all the enhancements disabled, they sounded anaemic and hollow.

Definitely not a bad deal at $40. You could do worse.
Likes:
-physical button control, so no accidental changes due to the touch sensor brushing against your neck or skin.
-lightweight, fits securely and comfortably.
-sound quality is decent for open earbuds
Dislikes:
-A LOT of notification beeps, especially if you use multi-point. Every time the buds connect or disconnect from a device, you'll get a loud notification beep. Low battery, loud beep. And it's not immediately clear which beep is for what reason.
-The speaker holes are very small, and it is easy for earwax and dust to accumulate to the point of completely blocking the holes. You need a pretty fine haired brush to clear our the holes every couple of months, or the volume of the audio becomes way too low.
-Battery life is not bad, but feels a little short.
