Planned obsolescence at work.

Warranty is for 1 year, batteries & charger were trash after 16 months. Bought them because they were the cheapest option at the time and I do regret it - just pay a bit more. You'll get a better quality product, save yourself money in the long run (if you don't usually lose things like this) and keep more of this junk from ending up in a toxic waste dump once it stops working (as designed).
I was worried about the quality as I didn't research before buying. But they're great, for $35 you can't go wrong with these. I was surprised at how good the bass was as well. I've had no issues connecting them either.
These earbuds are amazing, good sound, pretty good passive noise cancellation, good battery life and good touch controls. Overall amazing and would recommend.
For the price, these things rock. Be sound is good, they're light and comfortable, I love that the case has an atrached charging cord, and the price is awesome. The battery life also lasts for ever. My only gripe is that the mic sucks. I had two meetings with these where everyone kept going "what? What?" before needing to purchase a separate pair of earbuds for calls. I still love and use these for other purposes, especially trips since I'm not afraid to lose them. If you want a pair of spare ear buds or don't take many calls, these things are perfect
Does everything that it's supposed to do. I was a little doubtful due to a lower price but as other reviews say, it is a great product, and the price is unbeatable. Smooth Bluetooth connection changes between car bluetooth to the pods and vice versa is a bonus I didn't expect.
I stayed away from wireless ear buds for decades, but my new tablet does not have a earphones jack so I reluctantly had to go wireless. I'm not disappointed, compact case holds and charges ear buds for 36 hours of use. The ear buds are pulled into position by hidden magnets onto the charging terminals. The case is a battery in itself for charging the buds. No wires to roll up tuck away is nice. Good sound, 3 sizes of ear adapters. At this price point you absolutely cannot go wrong. Buy them !
These headphones are decent for the price. The sound isn't too bad, and they're comfortable in my ear. I do enjoy the variety of colours I took off stars for a few reasons:
- There are no replacement earbud tips, so these can fall out of my ears because the tips are too large. Very annoying, especially if you drop them on the dirty ground! - They only seem to work well when paired to my phone (Android). I do not have an iPhone but I assume it would probably be ok. Whenever I try pairing to another device that has BT capabilities, the sound is distorted and choppy. I am pairing to a relatively new PC with Windows 10 capabilities, as well as a Nintendo Switch. Both have the same problem with the sound quality.
- The controls on the earbuds decide when they want to work. It can be a PITA to have to fiddle with them or have to take out your phone from your pocket/bag to turn it down, change songs, or pause.
-I have also noticed They also just randomly cut out, not long, but enough to disrupt a jam session. It's not often that this happens, and it's very possible it could be interference on my end but I do want to make people aware of it.
If you're looking for a cheap pair of headphones for a workout or morning commute, I would recommend them as they get the job done and seem to work well with most phones. Otherwise, if you can afford the extra cost to get something a little better, especially if you need it for work/school/gaming, etc., I would suggest doing that. .
