I like them and I paid $49 with a free gift. Good sound and comfortable. I've had success using them with calls too, people have never noticed a call quality problem on their end. They connect well and battery life is good.
There is an app, but you don't need to create an account to use the app. It works fully in guest mode and remembers your settings. That said, there are a few permissions either required or optional to use it.
About the app permissions: "The Baseus earbud app for Android primarily needs bluetooth & nearby devices to find and connect to your earbuds, plus location permission (often for Wi-Fi scanning to add devices or for anti-lost features) and potentially microphone for voice commands, but it also controversially asks for contacts & call history, which is optional but enables caller announcements.
You'll usually be prompted for these permissions (Location, Contacts/Call History) during setup, with options to allow "While using the app," "Ask every time," or "Don't allow," except for Location, which might have an "All the time" option for features like anti-lost alerts."

I just feel with this particular form factor sometimes you're just better off going with the cheapest generic you can find since ultimately they're not using expensive drivers and they're not creating a seal so sound quality is going to be compromised no matter what. If you really just need something that's going to allow you to like listen to a podcast and still have ambient awareness... Donner, soundpeats have options for $10 occasionally.

I have these exact ones, got them for $54 last June. Really like them since I have sweaty ear canals which makes listening to traditional in-ear earbuds difficult and uncomfortable for several hours. Can keep these clipped on my ears for like 6 hours easily and keeps my ear canals well ventilated.

I've owned different brands of this type of earbud and there is a difference in sound quality, clarity during phone calls, battery, connectivity, just to make a few. Also some have the control buttons that are so sensitive that it paused or skips your audio when you turn your head. I personally use the Tozo one right now. Love them. On my 2nd set. First one was left in the rain by accident. 😢
I have the MC1 (not the Pro) and really like them. They are very comfortable and and I forget I'm wearing them. Most importantly they never fall off. Battery life is around 6 hours but recharges quickly. I can wear them outdoors with decent sound and yet hear my surrounding. Important for safety. I'm tempted to try the Pro version. I've been impressed with products from Baseus.
Have the MC 1, and generally like them. They're perfect at the office for listening to music and using them for Teams Meetings. Granted they're not the best when it comes to sound quality but open earbuds are nice for when you need to be aware of your surroundings.
This style earbud can be very uncomfortable given your ear shape. Could not wear them for longer than 30 minutes.
Ironically enough, people typically find these types of earbuds much more comfortable than standard in-ear ones. That's one of the reasons why these are so popular.

They're so popular yet I haven't seen a single human wearing them in the wild.

I tried a cheaper version of the same style that I liked, but returned today because of poor battery life. Those were way cheaper so I would guess these are better.
Just on fit. They're very comfortable. They felt like a pencil behind your ear and easily forgettable. However, because of the way they sit, they become annoying if you're relaxing in a chair headrest and slightly turn your head.

I already ordered one myself 2 weeks ago and since that day I am very satisfied with it
