The sound is good and the noise cancellation works a bit for a not-in-ear earbuds. However, the buds are very slippery and difficult to take out of the case. The buds are also large and put pressure on my ear and is very difficult to find a good position as well as sound. The touch control is very sensitive and since the buds are difficult to pick up, you have to grab them by the legs which will accidentally execute a pause or volume change. I got a pre-order discount but would not get this at regular price.
Amazing! Got these to replace my 3rd gen airpods, and fit into the samsung ecosystem. I hate in-ear so only use the open ear and I find these a little more comfortable than the airpods, which were very comfortable to begin with, so big win there. The sound is great, definitely noticed the hi-fi difference in sound quality, I'm hearing some things in songs I've not heard before, which is pretty cool. I personally love the stem/blade design, makes it easy to find the volume adjust and tap button. The active noise canceling works, it's not amazing but it's great for when I'm reading a book, and just tried it on a flight, which again the ANC is not great but definitely noticeable which is amazing for how comfortable they are. Haven't fully tested the battery life. The case and the buds themselves feel really nice and well-made, pretty similar to the airpods i find. Overall really happy with these. Worth it!
Like the design but hard to use the volume feature with the sliding, would love to have the hold feature instead. Also the new design makes them feel more slippery than usual.

They will not stay in my ear at all. It doesn't even stay in enough to use the buds control. The only reason it gets 2 stars instead of one is because it sounds good.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
