After years of resistance I finally gave up and tried a pair of True Wireless headphones, this mid-range pair and another much less... expensive model. Realizing that the famous Air Pods are more than double the price of these, I dove in here expecting decent results. The manufacturer says the earbuds connect to your phone directly from the case, but they're definitely not for me. You haven't connected to my Bluetooth-enabled computer or laptop. I gave up and let them charge for a few more hours, came back and my phone was able to recognize them after some more trial and error and a reboot. Now they connect quickly to my phone but not to other devices. That strikes me as odd. I didn't know what to expect as a big fan of in-ear headphones, but I was pleasantly surprised at how snugly these headphones fit the earbuds and have a very unexpected bass boost. End while listening to an action movie. Sure, it's not quality surround subwoofer bass, but the bass has a decent and unexpected presence for such a device (by contrast, cheaper headphones had terrible bass response). The usage time is 2-4 hours. but in my experience it's on the lower end. Something is dragging on. [By the way: Phone is Android, other devices are PC.] For the price, I wasn't expecting rather slow charging times, difficult pairing, inelegant plastic charging case and rather short battery life. It's not terrible and I still give this pair 3.75 stars, but I prefer cheaper headphones with easier pairing and longer battery life. I will search, now in search!
