This is my 2nd pair of 'premium' BT sport earphones.
I started with the new Bose soundsport and really liked the sound and fit of them, but they broke after a week due to sweat getting in the ear and shorting out the set. (Not an uncommon problem if you do your research)
These are working great so far. The fit is very solid (i used the larger tips), the BT connection is rock solid.
The battery life is reasonable. About 4 runs of 40 minutes each and they don't require a charge (but i will try to get into the habit of doing it about on this schedule). I've been charging them directly, but travel the built-in charger/battery case looks like a nice addition to keep in the car for emergency charge.

The sound is what may turn people off. These are neutral (some may say tinny). They are *not* bass heavy or a fuller "V" sound, which in complete honesty, may turn some people off. For workout music, the strong bass is what they are looking for. I adjusted the EQ in spotify and got the desired sound i was looking for I did want a little more bass for my running tempo motivation.
The BT connection was easy and i have heard zero skips. In the Bose, i'd hear a millisecond skip at least once every couple of minutes (and frankly even more). I'm using a Galaxy S6 with android 5.
The in-line controls work well for volume and FF/Rew. Have not tried it as a mic for phone calls. The FF is the same button as with volume. So at first i was trying to raise the volume and i was skipping songs...that was just user error.
I downloaded the app from the playstore and its not needed, although if they release a firmware update, I think that is how you'd get it.
Pros: Fit and snugness, Bluetooth connection, lightweight, charging case
Cons: Sound (if you want that thumping bass), but you can improve the out-of-the-box sound with an EQ or different tips

Overall i'm pleased with my purchase.

It does a fine job, but be aware

The extender works well, it does exactly what it is intended to do.
If you place it in a good spot, it will extend wifi access in your house.
If you place it in a good spot, it will extend wifi access in your house.
But be aware, this will create a "new" network.
Meaning if the name of your network is "MyHome", when using the extender, you will now have a 2nd network called "MyHome_EXT".
When selecting the wifi network on a device, you'll see both networks.

Depending on your needs, it could be just fine.
But if you have devices that are expected to be on the same wifi network - it may cause problems (something like Chromecast).

Also minor inconvenience with the dual wifi, is that in many places in my home I can see both signals, but one is usually better. But, the way many devices work, the wifi selector has an order of preference, so if it sees your not-so-strong network 1st (as long as it thinks the signal is good enough) it will connect to it, when in fact you rather connect to the 2nd version.
anyway, i do recommend it, just be aware of the 2nd network

Logitech Illuminated Living-Room K830 Wireless Keyboard: Easily type and input commands with this keyboard, which uses a 2.4GHz wireless receiver to connect to your PC or Internet-connected TV. The 85 keys feature adjustable backlighting, so you can clearly locate them, even in dimly lit rooms.

just want to clarify

you don't need a laptop for this? you can directly control your Samsung smart tv with this keyboard?
I'm just trying to find something to type better into my smart tv (that doesn't have a laptop connected)
