These headphones connect easily and the sound quality is quite good too. Like all in-ear headphones (IEMs), they isolate some of the sound, although they're by no means noise-cancelling. They come with a nice little compact charging dock with an internal battery that allows you to charge these headphones offline, which is definitely a nice touch. Lightweight and comfortable in the ears, these earbuds won't fall out while running. or by bike. While I haven't submerged them in water, I find them somewhat waterproof and will likely survive a downpour or the occasional dip in a puddle. Capacitive touch controls seem like a good idea, but are a bit annoying in practice. and limits the functionality in my opinion. Any touch on the outside of the headphones will pause or start the audio. Double-tap one earbud to skip to the next track and double-tap the other to go back. A long press turns them on or off. This feature would be nice if it wasn't so easy to accidentally activate the pause or skip function. A real button that you had to press consciously would have been much better. Great idea, poor execution in my opinion. However, at $30, it's hard to complain about them, especially if they're going to be used for a season or two.
