Great earbuds to cut the cord!

Verified Purchase:Yes
I was a little reluctant to purchase these because of the price. After waiting over a year, I finally caved and got a pair because I use the Apple wired headset pretty much all day for most of my calls. I do consulting work and sometimes calls can last over an hour so it helps to not have to hold the phone to my ear the whole time.
Packaging, boxing, build quality is what you would expect from Apple. Pairing it with your phone is just as easy. Make sure your bluetooth is turned on and it pairs really fast. They are simple to answer / disconnect calls with once you get used to the slight delay in connecting. Sound quality is awesome for calls or listening to music, audiobook, or news while exercising/ biking. Battery life gets me through the entire day from 7am to 11pm with heavy usage during those times. Once you hear the chimes it's an indicator the battery is low or you can check the status by opening the charging case near your iOS device which is nice.
Do not use them in the shower, swimming, bathroom or while doing an activity where you may lose an air bud. You can find them using Find My iPhone app, but it's best to be safe. They are expensive to replace from Apple.
Aside from overall cost, they're a great solution if you're looking to cut the cord, but want something with a low profile that's not big and bulky.
Aside from cost, I would recommend this product to anyone. They are reliable, works great, and sound quality is excellent.

Great kit for adding on or for a beginner!

After completing our last motion sensor project, my wife wanted to have more light in the laundry room because the fixture only had one bulb. Also, we needed a dimmer switch for our kitchen lights. I used this kit to complete the projects. I already have a Philips Hue Hub which you need to connect or pair the devices. Both the light and dimmer switch connects to the Philips Hue Hub really easily using the phone app for iOS. Works the same way with Android.
This kit is great for beginners or if you're adding on to your smart home. Really easy to setup, reliable and just works.

Great sensor for any room or closet!

We use the sensor in our pantry and closet, but throughout it would be great if we had one for the laundry room. It's simple to connect to the Philips Hue Hub using the phone app for iOS and the included hardware makes it just as easy to install just about anywhere you want. I installed ours using one of the support stems from the wire rack above our washer/dryer drop in sink area. The sensor has a really strong magnet so it holds well to the wire rack and is barely noticeable as the color blends in nicely. The motion sensor is directly in front of the door so when you open the door the lights turn on which is awesome. I currently have it set for 2 minutes before it dims out to off. It's a great addition to our smart home.
I understand it can get pricey especially using Philps or Lifx products, but you get to customize the lighting system in a way that fits your lifestyle. The best part is if you can stick a sticker, remove and install a lightbulb and plug in power adapters you 80% there. The rest is downloading the Philips app to setup your bulbs, hubs, dimmer switches, and motion sensors. It's cheaper and better than hiring an electrician or even wiring up a dimmer switch. I say that because if you decide to move, you can easily take your smart home with you.
I'd recommend this product to anyone.

Great customer experience!

We went to our local Best Buy after both researching reviews and shopping around to other major appliance stores locally and online. We got to see how the GE - Cafe Series 27.8 Cu. Ft. French Door Refrigerator with Keurig Brewer/Coffee or Hot Water - Stainless steel (Silver) would fit in our kitchen in the space we will have, looking at it for functionality, features, build quality and how it compared to other refrigerators in it's class. The other deciding factor to go with this unit was the friendly and extremely knowledgable sales person helping us select a product. He took the time to explain features and conveniences that we weren't aware of which really helped us decide to make the purchase. Some of these features were the water filter location, ice tray features, adjustable shelves, efficiency, ability to dispense hot water with selectable temperatures, and best of all how it makes a great cup of coffee using your favorite K-Cups. Our other appliances are GE and wanted try and stay with the same brand. The home builder offered other great options, but it wasn't what we were looking for so we took the credit for the fridge and decided to shop around. We are waiting for our home to finish construction and think it will work great and can't wait to use it. Would definitely recommend Best Buy over others because of the customer experience we received.

I purchased five of these drives to provide additional local bare metal backups for five computers. The main backup set is cloud based, so these drives work our great. They are easy to use, plug and play, quick to format, and your ready to go. Highly recommend using them. Also, the price was great.

Can I access Amazon's Alexa from my Alexa enabled Samsung Galaxy phone through this earbuds set? Thanks!♐

Hi, I have an iOS device, but I found this article doing a quick search that might help. Some of the features may not work on an Android device, like using Siri which is obvious or the battery indicator feature, but you can do most other functions which is nice.

Bought these for my dad a few days ago. Called him earlier. it disconnected immediately. I called back & disconnected again. He returned my call & said the double tap did not work. Worked great yesterday with no issues. Battery is charged. Any ideas? TY!

I have experienced this problem too paired with an iPhone 7+. For me I noticed if you double tap right when the call comes in before you hear the ringtone from the ear buds, it disconnected the call every time. If I waited until I heard the ringtone from the ear buds, the call answered without dropping. Another fix that seems to work so you don't miss the call or fumble with the double tap is to answer the call by swiping the screen on the phone and the air buds will connect to bluetooth after a 1-2 second delay. Another way is to remove an ear bud from one ear *I use the right side, and put it back so it wakes up from sleep mode. This is what worked for me.
