Been through a few wireless earbuds now, can’t quite fork out $400 for top of the range ones because I’ll lose them. But these were on sale for $80AUD, I’d buy them again in a heartbeat. Good battery life, great sound quality, very secure in ear, touch controls aren’t oversensitive! I do experience a little ear fatigue and need to adjust them. Can still wear these for a couple of hours at a time, Marc B1 · harveynorman.com.au

Let me start by saying these are extremely comfortable and fit well. I find it difficult to find ear buds Im not constantly readjusting to fit well in my ear. The sound quality is 5/5. It’s more balanced than you would expect for beats since they are known for their heavy bass. Don’t get me wrong though the bass is still there! The passive noise mode works great I dont even need to take them out t Chase · walmart.com
