Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I was pleasantly surprised by the sound quality of these earbuds. My go-to headphones for travel have always been the Bose QC-35 ii over the ear and Jaybird X2s for hiking or working out. I can honestly say that these buds sound 1000x better than my Jaybirds (which were SIGNIFICANTLY more expensive). The BEBEN buds have a surprising amount of low end bass and provide really solid sound isolation. The highs are crisp and lows hit very strong at medium to high volumes. Mids could be a bit fuller, but honestly these have a great sound profile for EDM and podcast/audio book listening. The buds are very light and comfortable on the ears - so far they have been in for an hour straight and no apparent discomfort. Pairing is seamless, and the case footprint is significantly smaller than I thought from the photos. The case is approximately 2 inches in diameter and inch and a half thick, so it packs really well. My only gripe with these buds are the button controls - they are not very intuitive and a bit of a pain to press down, as the buds are lodged in your ears. If you are running, and want to change volume up or down, you have to stop, grip the buds with your thumb and middle finger and hold down the button on either left or right headphone. Doing away with the buttons altogether and using a touch sensitive surface would make the usability of these much better. Nonetheless, you really cant beat these for the price.
