Far From Perfection
First off, these headphones are the poster child of taking 'paid reviews' with a grain of salt. They are listed as best headphones on a few lists online... I recently broke my Powerbeats2 headphones and after having them for 3 or so years, decided to try something new. This, was not the change I was looking for (although I thought it would be). Sound quality is mediocre contrary to reviews. It is lightweight, reasonably priced, and a decent design. Only earbuds that stayed in my ears consistently were the TwinBlades. This would have been okay, expect for whatever reason, whenever I opened my mouth sound would go away... These stayed in my ears relatively well while jogging (only with the TwinBlades), but opening my mouth meant zero sound. This was frustrating. I hated that my Powerbeats2 had no low battery audio warning. This product does... But regardless of your volume levels, it beeps a monotone BEEEEEEP at the loudest volume possible! I thought I was nuts until it did it a second time and scared the heck out of me each time. This mortifying experience was the nail in the coffin for me. I cannot enjoy these headphones and have to return them. UPDATE: I got the Jaybird X3 and love them all around! I strongly recommend that over these (even for a slightly higher price).
