What buyers say
Impressive sound and comfort
I've tried many earbuds and these are among the best for daily wear. The ANC is excellent on my commute, and the sound quality feels rich without being overpowering. Battery life easily gets me through a full workday.
Great audio, some ecosystem quirks
Sound quality and noise cancellation are top-notch, and the case feels premium. My only gripe is that some smart features work better if you have a Huawei phone, which I don't. Still very happy with the purchase.
Solid upgrade from previous model
The open-fit design is much more comfortable for long listening sessions than my old buds. Call quality is noticeably clearer too. Docked one star only because of the price point.
Excellent noise cancellation
I use these on flights regularly and the ANC handles engine noise really well. The bass response is punchy without muddying the mids. Highly recommend for frequent travelers.
