These headphones are unique in that they support not just the SBC codec but also the "Apple" AAC, in contrast to the great majority of their (China) contemporaries. He can use it on his Samsung S8+ since the Koreans made it work. That's why they're able to play passably well. It's a shame that neither LDAC nor Aptx-HD are supported. Certainly, the Chinese and Bluetooth 5.0 are not universal. Benefits that vary: The ability to operate two mechanical buttons was very convenient. The volume controls and selection of different tunes are also welcome additions. If you can find the correct ear pads (there are many different sizes and shapes of foam and silicone fungus in the package), the sound quality is fairly good for children of this age. No wheezing from the low notes, no rattle from parasitic protrusions in the midrange, no lisping from the treble, and plenty of volume to be heard even on the train. They claim that when used as a headset, you can hear reasonably well; nevertheless, you should know that this is not their strong suit, since they do not feature noise reduction. Both of my earbuds are picking up my conversation partner very clearly. I haven't tried it, but I believe you can use just one earpiece. The battery life is also fantastic; I listened to a tts-book for four hours straight without interruption, and a single charge lasts all day with a case. The upgrade to Bluetooth 5.0 is really worth it. Contrast several: 1) It's incredibly inconvenient that headphones don't have a "off" button. You can disable them together with BT on your phone by doing the latter (not an option - smartwatches). 2) The signal and/or synchronization between the left and right earphones is lost and the sound croaks for several seconds when moving by buildings and structures, or when making fast and/or violent turns and tilts of the head. This is bearable because it occurs infrequently. This meant moving the phone to the right front pocket (special, not on the side, but in front of the thigh, "tactical" pants). Coming from the left - absolutely useless. I put my phone in my pocket with the charging port facing up because the Bluetooth module is on the same side as the port ("head down"). 3) The auto-connection to the smartphone doesn't work, but every once in a while I manage to get it out of the case.
