What buyers say
Great value for ANC quality
I was skeptical about mid-range ANC but these surprised me. Blocks out my noisy office almost completely. Battery life is excellent too, I barely charge the case.
Good sound, app needs work
Sound quality is fantastic once you use HearID to personalize it. My only complaint is the app has too many menus and feels cluttered. Otherwise very happy.
Comfortable for long wear
Wore these on a 6 hour flight with ANC on and they never hurt my ears. Slightly large case for pocket carry but not a dealbreaker.
Decent but touch controls annoy me
Sound and ANC are good, but I keep accidentally pausing music when adjusting the fit. Wish the sensitivity was adjustable.
LDAC makes a difference
If you have a compatible phone, turn on LDAC immediately. Huge improvement in clarity. These earbuds are a steal for the price.
