I like the open concept of the charging case, given that these are open earbuds. It holds onto the buds tightly with magnets, so they won't be falling out on their own.When properly fitted these are unintrusive and comfortable, and most importantly, they don't passively block out the sounds of the world around you. They seem to stay in place good enough for working out. The multiple positions of the hook make it easy to get a secure fit.These have great clarity and sound airy and open like most open earbuds. What impressed me was the bass. These have an impressive punch in deep bass frequencies, nearly as good as in-ear buds.As per usual with Soundcore, the app is the best in the business. From there you get a bunch of options for sound customization and you can customize the function of the tap controls.Given the price these are pretty good value. They seem well made.

I got these after having my V30i for about 4 months and in that time I ordered a second pair. But everything I said in my review for the V30i applies to these too, these are great. The audio quality is as good as/better than the V30i considering the soundcore app. The range is probably on par or a little weaker than the V30i but not by much. The only serious issues I have with these are the touch controls.... good lord are they bad. When they do register your touch it's a good second after you press and it's a little difficult finding the touch zone. The V30i touch controls were soooo much better than these especially since they have that little notch on them which helps a ton. The case definitely seems a little gimmicky with not having a lid and all that but I really like the way they did this case and the magnets hold on good enough to shake it pretty good without them falling out. Dropping them might be a different story though so I'd be careful of that. But overall these are pretty much a straight upgrade from the V30i, but if you want better bass and a more comfy fit I think I'd still go with the V30i. I could probably keep going on my review for these, but they're nice maybe not $80 I think I'd pay around $60

I am surprised with this over the ear buds. As good as shokz but priced lower. The sound is clear with good base. Comfortable to the ears. You will love the design, it adjusts to the ears. This is a shokz beater. I am keeping this. Buy.

The case design causes several annoyances. The rounds shape makes it bulky no matter how it is placed in any pocket. The flat section is the only side to keep it from rolling around but it can not be used when charging as that is where the port is. The size adjustment must be reset to place the buds back in to charge. In making sure the buds are not accidentally removed from the open design they are real tricky to get ahold of to remove.Battery life is okay but not all day. Sound quality is good and they get plenty loud if not in noisy environments due to the open natureGet the AeroFit 2 when on sale instead.

These are great open ear headphones. I minis before, but they did not quite fit my ears and did not get loud enough. These are adjustable and they can get right over your ear canal without being uncomfortable. Normal earbuds don’t fit my ears and one or the other always falls out while I’m working out, but not these. These are great! Super comfortable. Connect easy. I went through three different brands and headphones, including the AirPods 4, all of which I returned before I settled on these.

Yes while the design and style of these are "cool" I would not recommend these for multiple reasons:1. The open case design is not easily pocketable. Yes the magnets do keep the earbuds in no matter what but it tends to make the earbuds themselves press into your leg at all times.2. Again the case design. The light is not a sectional light to indicate how much battery is left, instead it can only blink 6 times when at 20% or less which is what leads me to number 3.3. The case from full charge can only charge the earbuds from ~20% to full once per charge...4. The earbuds themselves. I hope you like readjusting a ratcheting mechanism each time you try to put them on! (They only fit in the case in the smallest adjustment size)5. I only noticed this 1 day into trying these, the dual connection mode is buggy at best. (note: not an issue with the app but with these earbuds specifically. I only bought these to replace my older C30i earbuds and their dual connection mode is flawless.) I noticed that when I tried to switch from my laptop to my phone that the audio from the laptop would desync often whenever I went back to it. (Never an issue with my C30i) Also I would have to go into the app and disconnect from my laptop just to hear sound from my phone if they were connected at the same time. (Never was an issue with the C30i).6. Might just be me but I could never get them to sit comfortably.End result I am returning these ASAP and buying a new pair of C30i.

Excellent sound and Bluetooth connection. Behind ear piece is one of thinnest I have found and is much more comfortable than most for a glasses wearer. Case is a bit funky but seems to work ok without protecting from dirt etc. 4 1/2 stars.

I definitely recommend these ear buds. I was an Apple Pro user for years, the problem is had is at night I still thought I had them in my ears. These open ear buds work great. I can wear them all day and they feel comfortable. Battery life is great. I played music for 4 hours and they didn't die on me. I would buy these again.
