This is actually the second pair of Melomania Touch I have bought. I was an early adopter prior to the firmware update and had to return my first pair due to an out of sync issue between the left and right earbuds when trying to factory reset the earbuds due to connection issues. I bought a second pair because people said firmware updates fixed everything and because I liked the sound (and lower price) I bought them again. First of all, after updating the firmware to the latest version, the connection to my phone was faster and more reliable than before, and the sound was as great as I remember. I tested for a good week before finally deciding the issues were fixed. Except that it isn't. While chatting with them on a walk, I had an issue with Bluetooth as the right earbud would momentarily lose connection with every step I took. That's a pretty big portability issue for TWS headphones. Then I started having issues with the right earbud not connecting to my phone even though both were on (and giving a voice response). After restarting the phone and putting the headphones back in the case for a while, he still had the same problem. So I followed the factory reset instructions to get the headphones working again. The right earbud restarts but the left earbud won't turn on anymore, even let it charge and try for 5 seconds to turn on again. The right earbud still does not connect (re)connect to my phone. Right now I'm washing my hands off this as this is the second time I've had to return this product due to poor quality firmware and connection issues. Considering how much TWS is available at this price point, even with great sound, the Melomania Touch isn't worth it.
