I am rating these a 4 due to the fit, maybe it is just my ear but the fit does not allow me to experience the full Bass experience from the separate driver. Long time Samsung Bud user.
My greatest concern was how well it would fit and if it would wobble when I am the gym. It passed that test. I love the clarity and immersive sound, which is very comparable to what I get from my Sony headphone. Although the ANC is not on the same level as that of the headphone which clamps over the ear, I will still buy this if I have to because I was very impressed.
I miss the feel of the my old Samsung buds 2 but the sound on these are top notch and they are comfortable. The only real issue is that the "pinch" controls are strange to use
Not exactly what I was expecting. Overall great sound. They look stylish. I'm a big fan of the stems. For my first pair of noise cancelling earbuds, they blew me away. Even with that, the adaptive sound needs some work. I work in a garage around buses and by no means use them for ear protection, but when air releases from a pressure valve it creates intense LOUD feedback through the earbuds, which then proceed to adapt to get quieter. This is a frequent and normal process for public transit buses, so I could only imagine walking past one on the street or while at a bus stop peacefully listening to music trying to block out the cityscape when bam, intense haptic feedback. The medium sized tips did break off. The silicone detached from the base as I attempted to pull it off per the instructional video. The small sized tips fit well so I won't be trying again. The buds are bigger than I am used to, I feel the need to constantly adjust them because they slowly slip out of place, breaking the seal, but they haven't fallen out yet. I'll have to buy 3rd party ear tips which is a little disappointing. One last thing, I wish there was a Setting to pick up on people talking to me, then adapt to ambient, instead of me having to speak "What did you say?" Just so I can hear them. Yes I can hold the stem for a few seconds but it just feels like I shouldn't have to do this and in those seconds I already missed half of what they said anyway. Not bad buds but much to be desired. I'm just glad I didn't pay full price for them.
I would recommend this to a friend!
