Review on 🎧 Avantree TW109 Waterproof Bluetooth 5.0 True Wireless Earbuds for Running, Sweatproof In-Ear Headphones with Microphone, Secure Fit Earphones with Ear Hooks for Gym Workout & Outdoor Exercise by Marc Salem

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Very close to what I wanted though.

Not having the funds to afford the Powerbeats Pro but wanted a pair of true wireless headphones that lay around the ear and last over 8 hours on a single charge, went for the Avantree TWS 109 my first choice. I mainly use them for listening to podcasts before bed. Comfort for this purpose is less than outstanding, but not having to fiddle with a cord justifies the occasional ear-pinching when you rest your head on the pillow. However, a major downside is the fact that the TWS 109 has touch controls. : Ideal for gym or running. bad for bed. Podcasts are skipped or disabled altogether. Considering that wearing headphones in bed is necessary to prevent insomnia by focusing on something specific; This touch control factor is very annoying. The headphones don't quite fit my ears, but the sound is still decent enough. I can handle the volume control on my cell phone. They seem to work for about 10 hours as promised. However, they start warning you about a 20% low battery: this warning becomes an alarm that wakes me up earlier than I'd like. If only he had waited until 10%. I have to admit it wasn't designed for these headphones (I don't know Powerbeats would be any better than the touch control issue) so they could be a lot bigger. to please others who use them differently. I'll leave them on and try sleeping with an earbud to see if that can solve some of my comfort issues.
