ok but it's a bit of a hassle

I bought this during the "deal" for ten bucks less than usual and I'd say at that price it's worth it. The sound is a far cry from the much cheaper pair I used to buy. I don't have much experience with the battery yet, but I intend to use it for commuting alongside the gym and maybe during work (if I can get away with it!). I knew my cheap pair wouldn't last as long. So far, the battery has only drained slowly with them. While the sound is really good and there seems to be some level of noise filtering/blocking, I've already had some issues with the pairing feature (something others have complained about). I connected them to my phone - no problem. Pairing with my PC proved to be more of a challenge. Although the headphones were previously paired and working properly, this time they failed to connect. I clicked connect and it just farted and did nothing. I've searched the web for advice and the best advice I found was that you should unpair the device. Then restart the earbuds by placing them back in the charging case and pressing both power buttons until they flash red (x3) and then white. I then restarted my computer (after removing them from Bluetooth pairing) and added them again. However, I had to do this several times as the first time I used one headphone and successfully re-paired, but then when I turned on the other headphone it turned on - it wouldn't connect (I tried different things, for example to switch on and off)! So I had to *again* unpair the headphones and reconfigure *again* and then plug in both headphones and then pair them back together. Only after that did they finally connect successfully in both ears. It was frustrating. The entire troubleshooting and reboot/repair adventure took over 20 minutes. In the end I'm glad I got it working as it seems to be a common problem. The final word seems to be that restarting your device (and turning it off first, I suspect) is the best or only solution to this problem. To be fair, I find Bluetooth finicky on most devices. It seems that Bluetooth pairing with more than one device at a time is an issue. Considering some of these headphones cost hundreds of dollars and these don't, as long as I don't have to constantly pair/unpair them, I'm up for the challenge. Lets see what happens. I'm sure I'll complain if the battery life is terrible or I have to deal with pairing again. At the moment I am very happy with them.
