Physician recommended, tested, and approved.
TL;DR - Just buy them.
Senso... never heard of them. In fact, I'd never have bought a set of earbuds from this company had it not been for my wife who took a chance on a rather inexpensive Christmas gift.
Best. Earbuds. Ever.
For the price, this is an absolute steal.
AUDIO: The audio quality, which is excellent for a set of earbuds, out-performs my wired Bose earbuds and only underperformed in the lower pitches (as a physician, no set of earbuds is safe if they have good bass - no room for the sound waves to escape and only damage your middle ear). I wouldn't use these earbuds to record audio (I do podcasts and digital recording), but I wouldn't recommend ANY earbuds for that.
COMFORT: I hate earbuds. They HURT. The only set I can use for any extended period of time (on an airplane, for example) is my Bose earbuds. However, Senso's set is a close second and doesn't seem to cause the residual pain other sets (Apple) causes.
NOISE CANCELLATION: I'm not certain how the noise cancellation works... I believe it's passive. Nevertheless, I have an Autistic daughter that only I seem to be able to calm and when she's screaming, I can plug these earbuds in and drown out her painful screams without completely drowning out all noise. When I'm playing music, it really does seem to work better than my Bose earbuds. I'm not sure how it works, but it does.
VALUE: How is this possible?! HOW?! This set came with two charging cords (one micro USB and ONE WITH A CONVERTING LIGHTNING/MICRO USB!!!), a car charger with TWO PORTS (1.0A and 2.1A!), replacement ear pieces, and a hard clamshell case. Did I mention it was only $30?!
The closest to this I can find on Amazon is a similar set (eerily identical) by Blayz (RobinTronics is missing several items [car charger]). HOWEVER, that set does not come with a convertible Lightning/Micro USB cord and, while it is currently $3-4 cheaper, this cord more than makes up for it.
CONCLUSION: FIVE STARS -- If you want a decent set of earbuds, get this one now. It is well worth it.
