Revainrating 1 out of 5

Good ideas but generally poor execution

I like many aspects of these headphones. I don't like so many aspects. I will not continue to use them as there are too many compromises. Pros: - IPX4: No dust rating but no sweat to worry about here. - Easy pairing. No problem and they keep in touch. The fit is good. They fit snugly around the ear and are very flexible. They also fit well in my ears. Absolutely no complaints outside of working hours. The green light is pretty bright. If you're walking on poorly lit sidewalks, it might make you more visible. I hate cables and most of my stuff is charged wirelessly. BIG benefits. Battery Life: Each kidney lasts more than 4 hours at maximum volume. Cons: - Build quality is cheap. The case is made of cheap plastic and the USB-C port on the back is offset. The seal on the case will be erased. The buds are made of the same fragile plastic. That was a plus, but there is also a minus. Light bars are not very visible on well-lit paths and sidewalks. Most of the light stripes are behind the ears. The sound quality is ambiguous for me. When I put them in my channels and hold them, they sound very good. The problem is that they are not designed to clog ducts and they sit loose at the end of the duct. Unsealed, they are very quiet and any low-noise environment will drown out the sound. Also, there isn't enough bass because. again no seal. -The noise isolation is weak as mentioned above. They're called "Noise Isolation" but don't offer it. It's an illusion. The fit may vary as the shape of the ears is different, but I can only guess my use case. There are many pluses here, but sound and noise isolation are very important to me. Unfortunately these buds are missing here. Again, noise and isolation depend on compression or distance from the eardrum, so yours may be different, but I doubt it. I would only use them on a quiet street but only because I already have them. I wouldn't buy it for the โ‚ฌ90 asking price. There are better products. EDIT**** The left earpiece stopped working after a few days. 3 stars to 1 star.

Pros
  • Fits me perfectly
Cons
  • Easy to repair
