"the headphones look good quality but i was very disappointed when i plugged them in"

"on previous occasions i have paid a hefty price for good quality earphones from other manufacturers only to be disappointed with performance and durability"

"they're the worst earphones i've bought"

"furthermore i didn’t need to send them the old pair of headphones that were broken back which would have been very difficult "

"the headphones themselves have a very good sound and are lovely to listen to music too the only issue i can find is the bass being too loud sometimes which muffles all the other sound"

"i thought maybe mine were faulty but looking at the other low reviews this seems to be common so either the quality control isn't very good or there's a lot of fake reviews"

"99 as a second set to live in my backpack in case i forgot to bring my more expensive daily drivers out with me"

"i consider myself as someone who looked after these headphones returning them to the pouch neatly folded after every use however after less than 2 3 months one of the earphones broke"

"in less than 8 months i'm already at my third pair as my previous two had suffered from sound output and connection problems while another had fallen apart through use"

"edit sept 2019 four years on and i am still buying these headphones every time they break"

"only problem is they really do cancel noise and he can't hear me when he has them in"

"hi i lost my very expensive ear phones"

"i was then asked to write a review of the product i don't like leaving negative reviews so i wasn't so sure"

"i have really small ears so those 'sporty' type styles with the part that hooks over your ear to hold them in place just doesn't work they always fall off and i end up having to force the in ear part further into my ear just to keep them on very uncomfortable!"

"* the noise isolation is pretty decent as to be expected from most in ear headphones they let louder sources through just as well but do a pretty good job of cutting conversational levels of background chatter"

"cant move head too much at lower volume as they are so flimsy that you can hear them folding moving in you ear"

"the packaging threw me off course as i didn't expect a cheap headphone will be well packaged"

"i ordered it about 2 and a half years ago and recently the left earphone stopped working"

"i've had a few pairs in time including really expensive ones and these are as good if not better than all of them they look good with a metal effect wire and solid looking ear pieces sound quality is excellent and probably better than my old expensive pair"

"while not really 'noise isolating' as they are simply in ear and more like ear plugs rather than active noise cancelling they are pretty decent for the cheap price"

"finding good quality but cheap headphones can be difficult however these certainly tick the box"

"i don't know if i recieved a faulty pair but after about a week only one side was making any sound"

"the sound especially noticeable in the bus and train was louder than my previous earphones at the same volume indicator"

"now after just 4 weeks all vocals on any songs or soundtrack are barely a whisper whilst the bass booms and thumps along making listening to music with these earbuds a complete waste of time and also money"

"they do an excellent job of blocking out the noise of people typing texts on their phones with keypad tones on crying babies and even the disapproving mutterings of city workers who couldn't stretch to a first class ticket"

"additionally what i found extremely annoying was that when i was wearing them outside while walking and was trying to have a conversation with people they were complaining they could not hear me and could only hear banging and strange noises"

"i was really disappointing that these broke after 2 months of use so i could not even refund them"

"just a shame about the whole listening experience being miserable"

"it seems that nobody tested them for a start they are a bigger diameter than most not much but enough to make them uncomfortable and the worst problem is the sharp edge which hurts your ears after 10 minutes!"

"i brought these after getting disappointed after my wireless earbuds i recently purchased failed to work"

"upon receiving this product earlier today i was disappointed to see that the cables weren't in fact braided as i thought by looking at the pictures and the "powerful bass" is actually rather pathetic"

"they are unbelievably loud!"

"it’s a health and safety hazard really annoying because i have to buy a new pair now and that’s another 10 quid :"

"if you will be lucky enough you will get these earphones without any defect as mine the right ear provide more sound than left so they came unbalanced "

"horrible mistake and would recommend purchasing a better for slightly more"

"bassy quite muddy missing some mids and average highs"

"do not bother buying"

"i bought these as a cheap stop gap for my annual dose of blocking the horrible sounds of other people out for 2 hours on a train to london"

"i don't write a lot of reviews but after what i thought would be an unmitigated disaster i had to come to rate these bad boys five stars"

"the biggest problem was always a tangled wire as i would often rip it off and one headphone would not work annoying if you listen to music!"

"so after all the trial and error and using an equalizer they're sounding quite decent but would definitely say the treble is quite harsh whatever the tip"

"when i find my peace disturbed on the bus or train by a fellow passenger's leaky earphones which clearly don't work properly i shall have to restrain myself from telling them about betron b 25s and why they should get a pair"

"they get quite cold because of this so be warned when putting them into your ears on a cold day!"

"my verdict: these are cheap and if you need a replacement fast because your current pair is broken or just too crappy and don't have enough time to read reviews and ponder on which earphone to buy have these as a temporary filler"

"i havent tested them out while running but considering that my daily bus ride is extremely bumpy id say they would be fine for running if that's your style"

"these headphones earphones won’t blow you away but they easily compete with my previous purchases from klipsch and pioneer which both cost me in the region of £40 £50"

"one set was brought at christmas 2016 the other pair in jaunary 2016 and so far they have performed perfectly"

"however after wearing for some time i found these to be really uncomfortable"

"i brought them for my recent holiday as i like to watch a film on my phone trouble is because there is there constant drone of the plane engine i am usually struggling to hear the film and it's pointless however this was not a problem with these eat phones the volume was"

"i bought these headphones due to the positive reviews for myself however they are the most irritating headphones i've ever had!"

"the wire gets weirdly stiff after some use but they do have amazing sound quality and the bass is to die for edit : the wire broke today don't use them roughly the wire tubing popped out of the left bud strangely"

"at first they were terrible but then i realised had to change the size of the rubber part they provide you with a variety of sizes but even after i found the right size the sound was better but still bad"

"furthermore i didn’t need to send them the old pair of headphones that were broken back which would have been very difficult "

"within the first 100m of walking while using these yesterday just after they had arrived the intermittent crackle and hiss became permanent and was as horrible to hear as it was disappointing"

"i really cannot fault these the only person who does not like them is our dog as he is getting walked so much more as i can now enjoy my music on the move"

"tinny uncomfortable top heavy and generally crap"

"a light nudge on the jack or line causes crackling or silence so if you are sitting down listening to an audiobook they would probably be sufficient but there are probably other earphones out there that do the same job for less money"

"however i was wrong these earphones produce a much clearer sound than the classic apple earphones that most people own the sound quality and noise cancellation is the best i've heard"

"can't fault them for the price really"

"not peaceful or restful and this was a cardiac ward not bedlam!"

"i use these with an mp3 player noise rejection quite very good especially if you push them hard into the ear to get the best possible seal sound quality extremely good astonishing bass price low well worth taking a chance on overall excellent much better than you might expect for the price"

"after wasting money on various different earphones i bought these ones based on others' reviews stating how good they were for the price and also in terms of the noise cancelling quality"

"the headphones were up to basic headphone standard the noise cancelling isn’t life changing or anything but do cancel out more than average headphones"

"what suprises me the most is that both ears are still working fine at their max volume 1 year and 2 months later most 10 quid earphones fall apart after a few hours ive had 7 pairs of sienheisser in ear where one ear has failed within 6 months so i have a good headset for stationary and good quality music and a cheap pair of in ears for mobility rather than waste quadrupple the price on good in ears like jbls skullcandies and sienhiessers that break immediately"

"i have had several over the years and always the wires go hard which is a massive shame"

"perhaps i've been unfortunate but at least i can vouch for the sound quality and how much sound it can block for earphones"

"these headphones have a fairly good sound with an obvious and somewhat overzealous emphasis on bass"

"they're still disappointing"

"my husband bought these for me because i am getting ready to start a degree and we live in noisy neighbourhood i must say they do exactly what i expect them to do"

"i guess the good reviewers for this product must have inferior ears or just haven't heard good sound quality before"

"for this reason i usually buy cheap earphones"

"feeling very mislead after spending my hard earned money on this product would highly recommend looking for a different brand with a higher level of quality as there are many better headphones at the same price point"

"they do an excellent job of blocking out the noise of people typing texts on their phones with keypad tones on crying babies and even the disapproving mutterings of city workers who couldn't stretch to a first class ticket"

"the selection of earbuds provided allowed me to find the perfect fit for my ears and these headphones truly do cancel out nearly all external sound perfect when working in a noisy environment"

"just plain old rubbish don't bother"

"the sound was pretty awful initially but after much wrangling for solutions managed to find some fluff in the headphone socket of my phone and once that was removed the sound was now tolerable"

"absolute nightmare"

"even sitting or just walking along i constantly have to readjust them and put them back in my ears as the weight and rigidity of the cables have forced them out"

"perhaps i've just been very unlucky and received faulty ones in a mostly perfect batch but imo just fork out a bit more for something that can withstand more than two weeks"

"i've bought from this company before and have never been disappointed so when i needed replacement earbuds i decided to check these out"

"as well as this i assumed there were in line controls for the headphones but after opening the packaging it's apparently just a decorative lump where the two headphone cables join would've cost pennies to add a few buttons here"

"i've had cheap senheisers which were better detailed in the highs but lacked bass and were cheaper build quality so these although not perfect they are very good value overall and the cable itself seems like it will last"

"i swapped them for my usual panasonic earphones which were about the same price and they seemed much better balanced"

"on the plane these were decent at blocking out noise although one of the first annoyances was the cable noise"

"you will hear deep bass much clearer without crackle or ringing sounds and high pitched tones are gentle there were parts of songs i never even noticed existed until i had truly heard them with these earphones and i used the apple iphone earphones beforehand"

"i bought these as a replacement for a pair of sony earphones that eventually fell apart after a decade of faithful service"

"i thought maybe mine were faulty but looking at the other low reviews this seems to be common so either the quality control isn't very good or there's a lot of fake reviews"

"i have not attempted working out with them because it would be impossible!"

"also they don't leak noise like some headphones so you keep your music to yourself"

"50 these are no better than my samsung cheap ones that are 2"

"these betron were to be for connecting to an mp3 player whilst walking through the noisy city"

"good quality sound comfortable and nice wiring until it gets stiff later down the line"

"the rubber ear plugs effectively seal out most extraneous noise"

"no such problem with betron honestly!"

"still i'd highly recommend to make good use of the pouch for transporting in your pocket the plastic covers for the ears don't retract compress so easily unlike others i've used so they'll happily stick into your thighs if you have tight pockets"

"actually i was wrong water did not make any damage or any difference within sound quality and that made me so surprised even though there was no information about product being waterproof which means it never was!"

"the metal shell started coming apart and it used to give me static electric shock in my ear when i would insert them sometimes which makes me think these are really cheaply made"

"it's a big sound thick note presentation and deep bass which will do well for edm style music but i fund it overbearing and slow"

"also the metal feels cold when first put in your ear but warms up with the heat of your body and soon feels little hot"

"i bought them about 4 or 5 months ago and they still have the quality in them that they did when i first opened the packet despite my admittedly rough way of storing them i"

"these looked great at first but after only 5 uses the sound quality started getting worse and after onky a couole more uses on of the sides stopped working completely"

"niggles: head units are a little large heavy i'm talking relatively here "

"one major problem is that on average the product has a lifespan of 3 4 months before either one or both insert earphones stop working"

"to be fair it did do a decent job of blocking out 2 lawnmowers and i know i was expecting a lot for £10 but some of the photos do make it look like the outside of the earphone contains a microphone when it's just a bit of plastic that looks like a mic"

"i previously purchased earphones from then and kept having problems"

"i bought these to use while travelling as i didn't want to use my huge sennheisers and risk losing them"

"they didn't disappoint at all from the moment i got the packaging and would definitely repurchase them really isolated other noises around me gym airport flights cafe "

"i've had much better quality sound from samsung earphones which they supply with their phones or can be bought for around £3 i'm almost inclined to believe these are faulty as the sound from them is that underwhelming"

"have been using these earphones for years now because they are in my opinion the best value for money and amazing quality i've spent double this and got half the quality and duration these earphones are honestly the best money can buy without spending £40+"

"at the moment it is too soon to give them 5 as that would depend on the time they last since that is the main problem with earphones"

"as for wear and tear they have took some punishment far more than most of the earphones i have bought and i have spent more than double on higher end models"

"terrible headphones i'm so sorry i've missed the opportunity to return them"

"on the plane these were decent at blocking out noise although one of the first annoyances was the cable noise"

"they're also quite heavy and bulky and the weight makes them fall out easily unless you jam them right into the ear canal"

"i bought these by mistake as i got myself somewhat lost clicking link after link looking for the right noise cancellation earphones"

"i brought them for my recent holiday as i like to watch a film on my phone trouble is because there is there constant drone of the plane engine i am usually struggling to hear the film and it's pointless however this was not a problem with these eat phones the volume was"

"the sound of the tv programme is not completely eliminated at low volume levels"

"found my old earphones were lacking clarity"

"unfortunately i've had 2 sets develop a fault after about 6 months use both due to the same design flaw"

"dumped th first pair as i thought it was faulty but th second pair is doing the same thing"

"although because there is no microphone it’s more difficult but not impossible obviously to know which is left or right"

"build quality: they lose points here"

"contact customer service about it because the product has a one year warranty and they may send you a replacement if you return the defective ones"

"duration is not good"

"as many people do i bought these on the strength of other reviews but am sadly disappointed"

"the only issue is that it wont last very long if you're a constant user"

"however sadly due to the lack of covering around wire near the earpiece area ive found it isn't long before the plastic comes out exposing the actual wire and causing the earpiece to stop working"

"most minor or problems and hardly noticeable disappears when something is playing 11 10"

"is nice they come with a carrring pouch and spare earbuds for larger ears or smaller ones"

"i suspect a slight manufacturing issue with my pair"

"the sealing between the jack and the wire tends to become weak after 3 weeks i've had a few of these models "

"given i paid under a tenner for them and the only more effective alternative is bulky extremely expensive noise cancelling headphones they are a great choice"

"these headphones would better suit audio books as the base and wack ass lows would make the talker a little more defined but nothing aside from that and for heavens sake dont use these for any professional manner"

"the sound was pretty awful initially but after much wrangling for solutions managed to find some fluff in the headphone socket of my phone and once that was removed the sound was now tolerable"

"ok first of all after 2 years of my bose true sounds earphones serving me great unfortunately they gave up on me!"

"the biggest problem was always a tangled wire as i would often rip it off and one headphone would not work annoying if you listen to music!"

"just a quick review regarding these little earbuds yep do a good job with my i pad sending me off to sleep in no time i do go thru a lot of these ear buds in a year though no fault of any particular seller or make just me turning over in my sleep sometimes drags the i pad off it's desk and the easiest"

"tried these little beauties and even whilst mowing the lawn or vacuuming i only use 75% volume and its crystal clear"

"i initially wrote a poor review of these but having spent more time with them i need to correct this slightly and explain the good bad better in my opinion "

"used the earphones for less than a week and the one ear is already broken"

"also the back is slightly bent which seems like it's unstable as i've been super careful with them"

"overall apart from some minor gripes it is a solid quality budget set of in ear headphones"

"just a shame about the whole listening experience being miserable"

"i've had cheap senheisers which were better detailed in the highs but lacked bass and were cheaper build quality so these although not perfect they are very good value overall and the cable itself seems like it will last"

"good over noise quality and they stayed in ear even through some hard snowboarding"

"these fall out easily when you're moving about"

"it says noise isolating"

"most frail part of the connection is normally the bud end which after a few twangs of strain will disconnect from soldered end of mini speaker solution: headphones or sod the neighbours lol!"

"only small criticism is that whilst it states compatible with iphone you do need an adapter and this isn’t very clear"

"as to the sound it's fine for the reason i chose them which is to exercise in the gym and being able to listen to my choice of music not the incessant techno rubbish they put out over the gym's speakers"

"don't waste your money on headphones that cost £100+ when these are a million times better"

"not sure why they didnt use a rubber sleeve so you can move it up so the ear pieces are kept together when rolling the cable up after use"

"last 5 years i've bought an almost endless supply of cheap chinese imitation apple earphones"

"they just lack the punch"

"sound quality was tinny and always sounded way too high"

"i like these earphones a lot they do exactly what they claim to noise cancelling in an ever busy noisy world are a godsend to someone like me who loves peace and quiet"

"however sadly due to the lack of covering around wire near the earpiece area ive found it isn't long before the plastic comes out exposing the actual wire and causing the earpiece to stop working"

"but the truth is these come nowhere as close as the sound quality of basic apple earphones"

"like every two minutes one would come loose or fall out"

"i don't believe these do have noise cancellation though as background noise is only reduced as much as you'd expect from shoving rubber earbuds in your ears"

"i have tried all the different rubber attachments to see which make them fit my ears the best and i must say none of them do"

"99 they were unlikely to be any kind of decent quality but i keep breaking and losing my headphones as i use them for cycling etc alot"

"while not completely noise cancelling they are as advertised "noise isolating " blocking out much of the sound around you aside from loud music or conversations"

"my son has a habit of breaking earphones with alarming regularity they don't make them like they used to i suppose mine lasted for 3 years with me just a weekend when i lent them to him not this brand "

"sound is impressive for the price but at full volume i did hear a loud car exhaust over my music recently"

"only couple minor criticisms e"

"the metal shell is very heavy so it is difficult to get them to stay in"

"sadly the left side broke after 3 months"

"terrible packaging that looks ancient"

"and then they fell out"

"also i was in a bay with other ladies including snorers and ones who needed attention during the night regularly along with people yelling in other bays because he was in with a snorer too"

"if you're like me and you just want a second pair of headphones that doesn't break the bag in case of emergencies then really you can't fault these little in ears"

"so i won't be using these down the gym again maybe just at home when i can sit still and not risk them falling out all the time"

"the item i purchased also falls out of the ears quite easily too sound clarity is not great and i just can't seem to get on with them"

"i brought these after getting disappointed after my wireless earbuds i recently purchased failed to work"

"i’ve been buying sennhieser for about 10 years now & these are just as good for a quarter of the price"

"however i probably won't be buying betrons again"

"bought these before a long haul flight and although the dreamliner is quieter than other planes still couldn't hear any external noise actually missed the pilot's announcement!"

"i brought them for my recent holiday as i like to watch a film on my phone trouble is because there is there constant drone of the plane engine i am usually struggling to hear the film and it's pointless however this was not a problem with these eat phones the volume was"

"i genuinely only think these survived so long thanks to the metallic construction"

"so far these have made it through spring downfalls which is where others gave up the ghost"

"however immediately testing them for first time i could tell they weren't up to scratch and were simply cheapo quality but given a fairly fancy looking exterior or at least looks good in product photos "

"the sound quality is a little lacking in bass but i think this is a universal issue in this price range"

"also the small speaker is incredible value "

"feeling very mislead after spending my hard earned money on this product would highly recommend looking for a different brand with a higher level of quality as there are many better headphones at the same price point"

"my samsung earphones that came with my phone we're dreadful at isolating noise so i could hardly hear anything on my phone or tablet when flying"

"the connecting cable is tougher than anything else apart from my syncwire charging cables and the design of the back of the earbud is less prone to damage or wera and tear"

"had several failed deliveries including a recent order which was recorded as being delivered and was nowhere to be found with no response from amazon when i reported that the product was not delivered "

"they are easy to break and very fragile"

"not dubstep tho never dubstep"

"despite this it is not ideal to have to request one every 4 months due to a failing product time and again"

"5 years of using them in bed pretty much every night falling asleep and mangling them running in the rain generally abusing them"

"sound quality is ok but the pieces are just slotted together and made of cheap plastic so it falls apart"

"to avoid this i have to balance the headphone just infront of my ear cannel which negates the whole point of the “ear plug” design of the headphones"

"however if you want a decent pair of earphones that will last you and you appreciate a well balanced sound don't touch this with a mile long jack"

"for the price of the headphones i was not expecting too much so i put a drop of superglue on the plastic and glued the metal cover back"

"but after a couple of months you will probably replace them during that time you will enjoy some really good sound"

"maybe a little too weighted on the low end but given 5 stars because i’m taking into account the price"

"in addition one pair we bought is no longer usable as the wire is now exposed where it comes out of the plug so the sound quality and level is drastically reduced"

"i use headphones every day: music to and from work gym weekends long walks on the phone "

"only downside is they dont have a microphone but for this price i really cant complain"

"i can't complain for the price but based on the 3 000+ positive i guess i had higher expectations"

"at first they were terrible but then i realised had to change the size of the rubber part they provide you with a variety of sizes but even after i found the right size the sound was better but still bad"

"unfortunately after thirteen months of me falling asleep and getting tangled up in them my b25's have finally expired "

"i only need to listen to them on 1 or 2 volume to get the volume i like which isn't really really loud as i'm a bit sensitive to sounds but instead it's enough to get rid of the outside sounds and enjoy my music "

"the headphones are completely sealed so when you insert the headphone into your ear you can hear the speaker pop and crackle as the vacuum pressure inside your ear pushes back on the speaker"

"they are very comfortable and come with a selection of sizes in a bag along with them that you can then use to store your earphones if you choose to which i only do when i am storing them somewhere in my room or somewhere over night "

"absolutely no base treble and mid is way to high and it says that they cancel out noise but it sounds as if you aren’t wearing headphones at all"

"what suprises me the most is that both ears are still working fine at their max volume 1 year and 2 months later most 10 quid earphones fall apart after a few hours ive had 7 pairs of sienheisser in ear where one ear has failed within 6 months so i have a good headset for stationary and good quality music and a cheap pair of in ears for mobility rather than waste quadrupple the price on good in ears like jbls skullcandies and sienhiessers that break immediately"

"don't wrap the cable round the mp3 when not in use as it will eventually damage the inner wiring!"

"you will hear deep bass much clearer without crackle or ringing sounds and high pitched tones are gentle there were parts of songs i never even noticed existed until i had truly heard them with these earphones and i used the apple iphone earphones beforehand"

"hopefully this set of earphones will be of a higher standard since the last pair may have been abnormal"

"🤣🤣 so i know the noise cancellation works and the volume control"

"sadly the left side broke after 3 months"

"falls out from ears"

"this is the 5th pair bought within 3 months for my daughter i never asked questions when she keeps asking for a new pair as they stopped working again"

"my verdict: these are cheap and if you need a replacement fast because your current pair is broken or just too crappy and don't have enough time to read reviews and ponder on which earphone to buy have these as a temporary filler"

"comfort if it's simply comfortable to wear or if it could hurt your ears after a certain amount of time while wearing them different types of volume high low 4"

"but once i had received the product i soon found out that they definitely did not live up to these claims at least most of them the sound quality definitely reflects the price of these headphones with a heavy lean on treble and lacking in bass and mids"

"edit: these headphones finally failed after 1"

"ps only con i can think of is that there’s is a slight buzz when plugged in and nothing is playing"

"these headphones have been a disappointment for me"

"after reading a lot of good reviews and also bad reviews i thought i would try these"

"these headphones would better suit audio books as the base and wack ass lows would make the talker a little more defined but nothing aside from that and for heavens sake dont use these for any professional manner"

"the base is poor the sound feels distant and muted there is no sound isolation and they are uncomfortable"

"they don't sound cheap or particularly nasty"

"i used to go through earphones at the rate of one a month"

"so i decided to pay more hoping they would last sometime"

"strong cable doesn’t get tangled"

"got 2 pairs and here is my honest and similar review for both pairs metal part of earphones are not insulated and hence it gives me shock due to static charge in the ears when walking or jogging"

"no volume adjust but that is advertised so can’t fault it on that but it would be nice"

"not awful mind and i imagine that if you didn't have an ear for audio mix downs you wouldn't care but for me it just sounds bad"

"i bought these as a replacement for a pair of sony earphones that eventually fell apart after a decade of faithful service"

"bass is not that good as you think don't expect much from it your music app could do a lot better"

"the base is poor the sound feels distant and muted there is no sound isolation and they are uncomfortable"

"i have a range of headphones ranging from mega cheap 99p ones to branded expensive ones £200+ which i use for different things"

"i'd suggest just go for some basic sony in ears for the same price and don't bother with this brand update: after three weeks now the left headphone has started intermittently cutting out curious about when it finally dies"

"also these feel weird in the ear: most of the weight seems to be angled outwards towards the rear of the earphone"

"had several failed deliveries including a recent order which was recorded as being delivered and was nowhere to be found with no response from amazon when i reported that the product was not delivered "

"nevertheless it was enjoyable to use on a day to day basis however its biggest downfall the durability is so poor it only lasted me three months improvements need to be made in quality testing and material choice by the manufacturer as a good seller i hope you take this feedback and provide this information to the manufacturing and improve your quality"

"i've had these earphones before the only negative thing i can say is that the wires get a bit stiff after a lot of use"

"however i won't buy them again"

"one major problem is that on average the product has a lifespan of 3 4 months before either one or both insert earphones stop working"

"i've been buying betron headphones earphones for a number of years but this is around the point where i'm probably going to start shopping around for alternative brands as this pair have lasted me around three months in total before getting sound dropping issues when the right side cable isn't in a certain position"

"i wear these for commuting and i am usually pretty careful however the plastic inside the gold trim yes i got the gold ones cracked which means that the jack itself is crooked something i have never had happen on any jack before usually its the wires that go first"

"they make the treble and all the high frequency sounds way louder than everything else songs i normally like hurt my ears even on very quiet volume"

"i bought these by mistake as i got myself somewhat lost clicking link after link looking for the right noise cancellation earphones"

"the first pair i lost"

"what suprises me the most is that both ears are still working fine at their max volume 1 year and 2 months later most 10 quid earphones fall apart after a few hours ive had 7 pairs of sienheisser in ear where one ear has failed within 6 months so i have a good headset for stationary and good quality music and a cheap pair of in ears for mobility rather than waste quadrupple the price on good in ears like jbls skullcandies and sienhiessers that break immediately"

"i've paid a lot more for earphones that have been far inferior to these so i'm very pleased with them"

"l and r could be more visible but not a lot of people care about those kind of things"

"my only downside is in order to maximise the bass you need to push the earphones deep into your ears but by doing this the bud seems to create a suction within your ear canal which is quite uncomfortable"

"cons: * the cable is not long enough"

"it has not moved since"

"they have lots of ear bud sizes and they come in a lovely little bag but other than that i wouldn't buy again"

"i replaced them with this "upgraded" version and i am very disappointed"

"as good as many quality earphones"

"these are amongst the worst earphones i have ever used"

"worked very well for 2 months then the right speaker died and amazon make it very difficult to return them"

"my only issue is that there is a huge lack in being able to hear the bass in any song"

"saw the reviews and thought they were fake reviews but needed these for running so though i could take a chance and buy them"

"i've heard much worse sound quality on more expensive headphones"

"perhaps it's just a faulty pair but i'm returning them"

"trying to use them on a video conference failed totally and they just made a horrible sound"

"they admitted all the connection problems they said they are already in contact with the factory and changed the product "

"i got this pair for the ~5th time not because they break but because their so good and everyone who uses them wants them and for ~20gbp their a steal and i know if anything happens i can contact anker and they would replace it right away"

"using the product for music when running the only problem with this is that they are too good blocking out all sound around me which isn’t always a bad thing but i often run through traffic"

"my oh has a very expensive pair of wireless headphones and i think that these are much better!"

"i really don't understand why there are some negative reviews as at less than £20 is almost a throwaway amount"

"i have trouble with ear buds like the apple ones falling out or just being very uncomfortable theses however are probably the most comfortable ear buds i have ever worn"

"noise isolation = not incredible but better than i expected"

"i listen at a lower volume now as there's much less sound leakage"

"i previously owned an older version which endured two years of harsh punishment in wind rain and snow due to my job as an all weathers window cleaner and they have only just started malfunctioning one side stopped working "

"overall: good product if you don’t want to splurge on the really expensive ones!"

"or the reviews are from people who really don't mind the negatives and just look at the cheap price"

"didnt hold much hope for these cheap headphones but i was very surprised how ok they was "

"perhaps it's just a faulty pair but i'm returning them"

"actually a little bit more my previous earphones were sold under the mpow brand although being shenzhen generics you could have probably seen them under different brands as well and actually had someone sensible do the eq for them when playing music these ones massively over egg the bass making midtones and trebles terrible to middling"

"it leads to this horrible imbalance where listening to music with one earphone is quite a miserable experience"

"i like to listen to music in bed sometimes to fall asleep to after nights but they are bulky in the ear and i comfy if you lie on them"

"it leads to this horrible imbalance where listening to music with one earphone is quite a miserable experience"

"at least a 2 second delay makes any lip sync vide unwatchable which is a great shame"

"lost them so bought them again as anything else in this price range is completely terrible compared to this"

"the sound quality on these isn’t great and gets a bit of crackling not sure if a defective pair or just a bad bluetooth connection on these headphones"

"next i noticed whilst watching a youtube video the volume was quite bass y with the female presenter sound quite gravely"

"however the microphone is awful callers say i cut in and out all the time"

"absolutely terrible"

"awful awful product"

"when i connect these to my phone budget mid range 2017 the connection is great but there's a bit of a delay when pausing unpausing and spotify can sometimes skip a little"

"i'm very disappointed with the overpriced earphones which barely lasted for more than 6 months with a really deceitful warranty advertised and poor customer service"

"secondly as mentioned in the other reviews the microphone is pretty poor quality and you would have to hold in right in front of your mouth for the other person to hear"

"there's a constant clicking and crackling so it sounds like faulty wiring"

"the sound was tinny it was truly awful"

"sound reproduction is incredibly artificial losing the bottom end under 120htz so no decent sub bass "

"i found the battery life to be poor sound quality awful and worse yet if my phone was in my jeans pocket the connection would drop in and out whilst walking or even sitting on the train"

"in comparison to my taotronic earphones that are very similar they have a better in ear fixed position as the mould does not twist and turn like the taotronics however there is a slight loss in suction which most consider as noise cancellation i however feel very sensitive to the audible sound made with in ear style buds so the trade off of annoying stompy noises when moving around and sensitivity to chewing when in the ear is a win for the anker earphones"

"i have several anker products and cannot say a bad word about the sound quality but these seriously fall short"

"really distorted sound quality"

"i bought these after my soundbuds surge earphones died on me after a year of owning not an awful lifespan considering how much i used them "

"the only real letdown with this device is that the weight of the play pause rocker makes the right earpiece fall out of my ear ever so easily"

"however what let this pair down for me and why im returning them is the appalling sound quality"

"the bass response is a little lacking and i have some concerns about the trebles the earphones produce a sometimes uncomfortable painful sound on some tracks"

"***the earphones that i received were a pair which had a defect which was causing the volume and connectivity issues"

"these had a great battery life which is what anker are renowned for and decent fit but they're just too quiet"

"until one time i was in a noisy place i found out that the mic augments the noises around me while it lowers my own voice"

"i previously owned an older version which endured two years of harsh punishment in wind rain and snow due to my job as an all weathers window cleaner and they have only just started malfunctioning one side stopped working "

"needless to say i'm returning these to try my luck with something else"

"the negatives even though they fit snug sometimes they would bruise inside of my ears due to the silicone causing friction"

"now i don't know if i was just unfortunate but the new pair certainly lack the sound quality of the lost one"

"however next time i'll be buying more expensive ones as these are lacking bass when compared to £6 wired headphones that i purchased before these"

"i did have sync issues to begin with when paring this up with multiple phones and tablets i tried restarts and everything"

"the only one down side is that there is no option to skips songs not that i've figured out anyway it's not a major issue but it would be a nice feature"

"when you turn the volume up it makes a little annoying beep that distracts from whatever you're listening to"

"also the sound that come out of the ear phones are not loud enough i just find it too quiet i have to put the volume up a lot which i find annoying because sometimes i wanna listen to music louder"

"somehow managed to lose the first play and then decided to try the pair by taotronics which in short were awful kept cutting out sound quality was sub par and maximum volume was really low"

"second pair has the same fault"

"i have anker power cells and they are quite good so though i would try these"

"i bought these today and already i am disappointed"

"i'm very disappointed with the overpriced earphones which barely lasted for more than 6 months with a really deceitful warranty advertised and poor customer service"

"decent sound but terrible hardware"

"i think the biggest issue i've had is that there is a 1 second delay between the video and audio if i watch videos through my earphones"

"trying to use them on a video conference failed totally and they just made a horrible sound"

"i contacted ankar to see what the issue was temporary software issue fixed now "

"only reason these didn’t get a 5 star rating is because if i use the rubber buds that fit me best it sounds like the driver is struggling to breathe and the sound becomes distorted"

"i found the sound to be really clear with the noise cancellation feature"

"the clarity is not bad but proportionally it offers nothing in the lower range"

"initially these sounded quite good but about a week in i am getting distortion in the left earbud and all the bass seems to have left the building"

"good product but only lasted about a week before one of the headphones stopped working and amazon customer service weren’t helpful"

"main issue is sound quality not what i was expecting for the price"

"after a disastrous time with a pair of jaybird x3 i tried anker buds for the first time last year"

"i must admit i am really surprised at the quality of the sound these little babies produce good bass and crystal clear"

"also the sound quality is pretty poor super tiny sound so i have to turn the volume up which is pretty painful for my ears"

"don't ignore them"

"this led to distorted sound which for me rendered it unusable"

"in comparison to my taotronic earphones that are very similar they have a better in ear fixed position as the mould does not twist and turn like the taotronics however there is a slight loss in suction which most consider as noise cancellation i however feel very sensitive to the audible sound made with in ear style buds so the trade off of annoying stompy noises when moving around and sensitivity to chewing when in the ear is a win for the anker earphones"

"very disappointed as my last pair different brand were cheaper and didn't have this glaring flaw"

"i bought 4 pairs costed between £20 £60 and all falled apart within 2 months and had very limited battery life"

"it's really unfortunate because this is also the piece where the charger cable is inserted into"

"my only complaint was the short low battery warning"

"given the intermittent frequency i find myself not fully relaxed when listening to music and the buzzing sound is much louder it seems than current music volume level"

"i'll start off with i was never a fan of wireless phones was just another thing to charge and often means left with low battery"

"i wanted to review this product to point out one major fault but not the end of the world with this headphone"

"downsides they've been sometimes problematic with pairing to the phone and as others have mentioned the audio low battery warning only comes a few minutes ahead of the battery running out completely"

"issues: the one tiny issue i've found: the battery level reading for the headphones when connected to my phone is inaccurate and often displays 100% until it's about to die when i get 5 to 10% readings"

"the volume on these earphones is much worse than i expected"

"i bought this for a second time after my other anker earphones lost volume in one ear"

"being fussy"

"i mean is 90% for awhile then gives a warning low battery"

"it's quite a minor issue but still an issue nonetheless hence the knock off a start and happens probably once in every 5 times i've started up the headphones"

"absolutely shocking package came unsealed looks like it was already opened and there is old tape residue on the opening but obviously no tape headphones don't actually work "

"i'll update if they break early or if something goes wrong"

"the sound is decent when listening to music on spotify however i find it very hollow and echo sounding when listening to tv shows on netflix"

"i'm probably gonna get a usb type c to headphone jack converter soon because honestly these headphones are more hassle than it's worth"

"nice build quality great sound look good and are very functional"

"my plan is to use them for aqua jogging where head is kept above the water line but there are splashes and they will get wet to some degree though not often immersed i will be using bluetooth to connect to my iphone to listen to podcast or music"

"i'm probably the least technical person that you've known"

"washed out mids no bass whatsoever and hissing trebles"

"sadly this is a company that is going downhill"

"would definitely recommended these to anyone who gets annoyed with cables and don't want to spend too much"

"the most important thing for me with wireless headphones is that there is no connection drops outs and there has not been one connection drop out had a pair of similar taotronics and they were rubbish "

"sound quality and fit a significant drop in quality from previous version"

"this is a very strange issue that i have never encountered before"

"this is slightly annoying as you don't seem to get an indication every time that the battery is dying"

"maybe at 10 or lower and nowhere near as loud scared me half to death have no idea how long or whether it repeats this however "

"i don't particularly like wireless earphones such as the apple airpods or the huawei free buds since i'm such a clumsy person"

"volume up and down buttons can be held down for a second to skip or rewind tracks"

"when running unless they are jammed into your ear the speaker looses all bass and you can barely hear any drum sounds"

"only snag is the sound advert states the headphones have a high end sound but some songs sound is poor and tinny sound"

"the sound cancellation was okay but they do leak sound at the higher volumes"

"have tried many earphones for workout this is absolutely the lightest weighted and longest lasting with a strong battery"

"overly heavy ear buds that vibrate horribly"

"1st update: way too much static now and there are weird high frequency noises in the background"

"if however you want to watch videos with these as i do or now did you may hit the same problem as me"

"these are actually the second pair of these earphones after the original developed a synchronisation fault with video"

"this is because they do not have that feature but are able to block out a large percentage of background noise through the correct fitment of the rubber in ear cups"

"just as good as more expensive brands which i compared against"

"clip bad points ill fitting ear tips limited noise isolation lacks dynamic range flat cable personal preference weak magnets so as you may or may not know i have done a few review of bt headphones in the past https: www"

"i had a little trouble getting them to work with my iphone they don't always automatically connect and play the music for some reason and need some switching on off at times to get the sound coming through"

"poor noise cancellation you can hear the environment around you and the volume control is just confusing even at max volume it's just too low you need to have your phone volume high in order to be able to just about hear your audio"

"most budget earphones don’t have noise cancellation so just stick the volume up"

"bought these after returning bomow noise cancelling in ear headphones due to poor sound and completely ineffective noise cancelling although to be fair i may have been unlucky as that product does have many good reviews and the supplier did offer to assist me but i'd already returned them "

"the person who emailed me from their team was really kind and friendly and helpful and i wouldn’t have bothered trying to return or replace my broken ones so i’m very happy that they reached out"

"maybe i am clumsy or i have distorted ears i find these impossibly fiddly to use"

"the one downside is that there is no counter weight on the left side so the wire tends to pull to the right there is a clip you can attach to the wire that will hold it in place but not ideal really a counterweight would be better"

"i was looking for true wireless buds but having recently spent £££ on samsung galaxy buds jabra 65t and creative outlier air's which all had poor quality audio or connection issues i came to realise the techs just not there yet"

"less chance of losing"

"sound is good much better than other similar earphones we have tried but i can't for he life of me sfigure out how to change songs"

"this means when walking next to a road i have to turn them up much louder and the tinny treble quickly gets uncomfortable"

"it's how they're designed there's not much wiggle room for you to find a comfortable position as if you take them out a bit you lose the bass and noise cancellation if you push them in you risk feeling pain"

"sadly i lost them which prompted me to buy a second pair of the same model"

"however after less than 2 weeks of use it has already failed"

"i don't need to be reminded i have low battery twice every song"

"these are very comfortable in the ear even with a full face crash helmet on and also act as ear buds to quieten wind noise"

"i did look through reviews before buying but those pointing this out only came up now when i searched for the specific issue in questions"

"my only downside is that they maybe cancel out noise too much giving a strange feeling of having earplugs in or being underwater"

"bought these after returning bomow noise cancelling in ear headphones due to poor sound and completely ineffective noise cancelling although to be fair i may have been unlucky as that product does have many good reviews and the supplier did offer to assist me but i'd already returned them "

"i can't imagine them staying in my ears if i were running or working out though as they never felt like a sold fit no matter how many of the spare modifiers i tried"

"if speaking by phone isn't a major concern of yours then these may be ok for you but if you want some headphones for hands free speaking these may not be a good option"

"i really like these for listening to music however they have a major syncing issue for watching video"

"i bought 4 pairs costed between £20 £60 and all falled apart within 2 months and had very limited battery life"

"the noise cancellation is ok but definitely not that of much higher end buds"

"i've had two pairs of these from anker in the past and i don't know what's happened but these new ones for 2020 are absolutely rubbish"

"sound quality isnt crisp and bass is very little but for comfort and use for every day they are very good for and cheap version "

"short notice battery low like many have said"

"i wish i'd realised all of this before the 30 day return window was up"

"i would be really happy but this is a major flaw that should be mentioned"

"as i say i've not tested them thoroughly i've had them an hour maybe but they seem to not budge in the ear after throwing my head around with them on"

"the short cord should mean it doesn’t move around as much i did find that it did and i am not sure if this is due to the thin flat cable which i am not a fan of"

"so i was looking for a cheap replacement for my second faulty pair of beats x"

"this is because they do not have that feature but are able to block out a large percentage of background noise through the correct fitment of the rubber in ear cups"

"also practically unusable if trying to use microphone for phone calls i’ve had nothing but complaints from the third party"

"however this was a minor setback as i feel it was more of a issue with samsung products than the headphones"

"" the battery itself has lasted almost two days work time of constant music and podcasting which is pretty impressive!"

"the weight of the volume control on the right hand side can be of a slight occasional hindrance but in comparison to my old plug in phones it’s a no brainer"

"one thing i found a bit annoying is the button pad hitting my neck while running did not really affect that much they come with 4 other extra earbud sizes would fit any ear size and the rubber holders that keep them in place were unnoticeable to me they also come in 2 other sizes a carry pouch is also provided however the matte texture of it did pick up a lot of dust again it doesn't affect the earbuds in anyway"

"multiple rubber seals for your ear canal are supplied but the stupid shape means you have to really force them in"

"the rubber fins further hold the earbud in place"

"just nearly had a heart attack though as the news featured sound effects which scared the daylights out of me !"

"but the sound levels are very low if a car passes by you it will drown out the music"

"i've got to say i have been pleased with anker before particular for their battery products but after reading a review of anker soundcore wireless earbuds which places them as better than apple airpods i thought perhaps that quality is reflected even in their cheaper products"

"just a downer that one had all the important bits missing :"

"tested this over a couple of days to make sure it wasn't something else causing the issue but whenever these are connected to my phone my wifi slows down and then eventually starts losing the signal altogether"

"avoid at all costs"

"battery percentage shows 80 or 90% in the device connected to but depletes to zero immediately"

"tested this over a couple of days to make sure it wasn't something else causing the issue but whenever these are connected to my phone my wifi slows down and then eventually starts losing the signal altogether"

"but they either don't stay embedded or it becomes too uncomfortable for any length of time"

"once the disconnect happens the device seems to reset itself and reconnect again but the distrurbing interruption has already ruined my listening experience until the next random moment : that apart these headphones are total value for money so please help me to resolve this issue asap"

"so i was looking for a cheap replacement for my second faulty pair of beats x"

"however i have purchased i phone 11 pro and when i tried to connect my earphones there seems a problem as the its getting identified in the bluetooth list but while trying to connect it just keeps loading and tries to establish the connection"

"given the intermittent frequency i find myself not fully relaxed when listening to music and the buzzing sound is much louder it seems than current music volume level"

"waste of money"

"but overall i'm not unhappy with £20 as they are really quite clear and high quality sound for the money"

"very unhappy with them and wish i’d gone for the £25 ones now although confidence in the quality has gone now"

"completely unusable"

"i disliked the standard apple earphones so tried a few before finding these"

"not enough bass for my liking volume control is odd just lets me press 3 times then beeps as at maximum but still very low have to then use volume on phone to increase volume"

"i use the largest size wings and have had little to no problems with them falling out when running"

"i expected this new model to be much better in terms of sound but as it turns out it is actually worse"

"when speakers are cheaply manufactured they amplify the bass to drown out the poor quality of the treble"

"i purchased these for the sole purpose of watching tv and films on bbc iplayer and netflix whilst in bed not wanting to disturb the wife!"

"after two days i am fed up with them and am going to buy a replacement pair probably the same ones i got last time"

"0 earphones in the last month and alas this pair has noticeably less stereo separation compared to the other one i've swapped between them multiple times to hear the difference and as a result music is less enjoyable so i'll be keeping this pair at work for occasional usage and taking the other pair everywhere else to maximise my enjoyment of music & video on the go"

"connection dropping on wifi and cell the main issue and why i had to return the device is due what's probably a faulty device"

"i rushed to buy this after owning several anker products"

"the only setback i have for these is when syncing my samsung phone or tablet the second device paired will have audio lag for videos"

"the one downside is that there is no counter weight on the left side so the wire tends to pull to the right there is a clip you can attach to the wire that will hold it in place but not ideal really a counterweight would be better"

"uk gp customer reviews r1z3yr8etlexzuref=pf_ov_at_pdctrvw_srp this is partly due to me losing many of them"

"it doesnt really bother me though"

"there is that loud anouding voice that battery low"

"also there seems to be no bass with these just quite a tinny sound when listening to rock music"

"they look expensive sound good and they are backed by an anker warranty which is great"

"i just ended up stepping up and buying airpods!"

"the only slight negative is the connecting cable which can get in the way sometimes"

"also the slim's volume control acts seperatly to the phone's volume control unlike the lite's which changed the volume on the phone itself rather than just the headphones saving them from getting out of sync with each other"

"i'm a little disappointed with these as anker usually produce great quality products"

"and the battery died within the hour"

"connection is at best flaky too much crinkling noise for no reason when sat within 10 inches of the connected laptop"

"if you want to get something that lasts longer than 90 days don’t buy these as i’ve wasted a lot of money on them already"

"however i lost a pair and was very quick to order a replacement"

"i mentioned googling a solution for me none of them worked"

"also the sound that come out of the ear phones are not loud enough i just find it too quiet i have to put the volume up a lot which i find annoying because sometimes i wanna listen to music louder"

"i'm more annoyed than anything"

"i bought these to listen to music but they're totally unusable for this"

"i’ve lost all hope in anker selling quality stuff anymore"

"so decided to buy these as i lost my jaybirds after the parkrun"

"no depth of audio even when using an equilizer to try and circumvent this issue they're still uncomfortable to listen to"

"however in terms of sound quality they are definitely a downgrade rather than an upgrade"

"the audio quality was very poor lacking of bass"

"the little rubber "nipple" above the earphone somehow makes them only fallout under the most strenuous activity and there sports proof"

"you also can't really wear them in only one ear as the one that you're not using will drag on the cable"

"the buttons don't stick out enough so i find it difficult to press when i'm not looking but everyone has different niggles battery life seems to last for ages"

"that being said the battery life can be a bit confusing a cell shows up on my phone next to the headphone icon and will say that they are nearly fully charged but they will act missing out music like they’re stop starting like they’re running out of power"

"very tinny sound which actually hurts my ears"

"after on 2 hours of use and running into these problems i'd rather not deal with them"

"the only real letdown with this device is that the weight of the play pause rocker makes the right earpiece fall out of my ear ever so easily"

"the bluetooth connects quicky and the battery life is good at a long day's worth of listening before running dry"

"the previous one had the bass but lacked the clarity"

"i lost a pair that i had bought a year ago and i found them after 3 weeks outside while it's been raining heavily and had been in the mud"

"it was extremely difficult to locate the correct "side up" in order to make adjustments to the volume and moreover when you are working blind "

"can be annoying at work"

"bought these after returning bomow noise cancelling in ear headphones due to poor sound and completely ineffective noise cancelling although to be fair i may have been unlucky as that product does have many good reviews and the supplier did offer to assist me but i'd already returned them "

"however there is a noticeable delay on the audio when playing games such as pubg mobile so if that's an issue then don't buy"

"clip bad points ill fitting ear tips limited noise isolation lacks dynamic range flat cable personal preference weak magnets so as you may or may not know i have done a few review of bt headphones in the past https: www"

"my old panasonic rp hje125e are much cheaper and give a more natural better sound"

"for instance i tried them first with the second medium size ear bud which were too loose within my ear allowing too much air in and therefore although i could hear the sound it was very tinny with zero base"

"sound is good quality i'm not an audiophile so i can't comment on anything intricate they fit well and generally don't come loose although i do find myself pushing them deeper into my ears every now and then while running the bad: after extended periods of time the buds can be a little uncomfortable i've tried using the different silicon attachments to suit my ears "

"the only little gripes i have is that the battery life isn't great make sure to turn them off when you're done with them and because the controls are on the one side that side tends to pull a bit when running which i need to keep fixing but it's not a major issue"

"i have a half marathon on sunday so bought another pair but found the package was damp and dirty when it arrived"

"multiple rubber seals for your ear canal are supplied but the stupid shape means you have to really force them in"

"sound can de sync on videos on certain apps so i would mainly use these for audio only needs unless you're smart enough to figure out video delay on apps as the sound usually arrives before the footage but i use wired if i'm watching video on phones"

"bought these to replace a stolen pair of headphones until they were back in stock"

"but unfortunately these headphones under preformed and actually sound worse than my water damaged flows"

"sound reproduction is incredibly artificial losing the bottom end under 120htz so no decent sub bass "

"original review: i gave these a four could have been more i bought these to sleep in bose sleepbuds have been recalled by bose but they do project quite a lot outside the ear others use a seperate bluetooth sound cancelling module so you can not 'sleep' in them as they are too uncomfortable to lie upon i feel this also causes an issue at speed running cycling when they generate a bit of in ear wind noise"

"i do not have any hearing issues and am middle aged"

"it doesnt really bother me though"

"update: for whatever reason the delay has disappeared two days later still worth bearing in mind compared to the older version purchased these as i had the previous version which were superb however these have worse audio quality and when using them to stream video there is always a 1 3s delay"

"i wanted to buy some bluetooth earphones to work with my samsung galaxy watch so i can leave my phone at home whilst in the gym"

"battery life is better on this model but sound is lower and tinny compared to previous ones which i still have "

"i was looking for true wireless buds but having recently spent £££ on samsung galaxy buds jabra 65t and creative outlier air's which all had poor quality audio or connection issues i came to realise the techs just not there yet"

"no faulting the sound quality but these are simply useless to me as they push themselves out of my ears after a few seconds even when i’m just led in bed"

"i purchased a pair of these a few months ago that broke within a couple weeks i left a pretty negative review then and decided bluetooth headphones weren’t worth it"

"unfortunately i lost the documents to return them otherwise i would have done"

"i was looking for earphones that activated siri and were comfortable and with long playing time"

"the cable is quite grippy and tends to cling to my neck and some clothing so when i move my head the cable doesn't move with me and one of the buds gets pulled from an ear"

"the only real flaw i’d give these if i had to is that i don’t feel the max sound output is loud enough for someone who needs to drown out loud gym speakers playing their own music my apple earphones that come in the box put out a louder sound but that’s expected"

"the head phones are heavy compare to the other headphones these were the most annoying they keep sliding off my shoulder you’ve got to keep both headphones in your ear which is annoying if your are only using them to make calls"

"in conclusion these headphones are ok and i have decided to keep them with the aim to add some foam tips purchase separately and if that solves my audio quality issues then everything else can be forgiven"

"the build quality is good but compared to the original pair the sound quality is awful very flat and tinny and they don't block external sound anywhere near as well"

"edit to 4* the left side earbud has died within a week i'm just gonna put this down as my fault and buy replacement if you've ever had a pair of anker earbuds like this before the main difference is the mega battery life"

"the second purchase had a volume down button that didn’t work and finally the 3rd works"

"i also worry about the build quality as the wiring looks rather fragile although again as entry level i suppose that’s inevitable but rough handling will i think give them a short life"

"so there i was stuck with music that wasnt as loud until i realised the earphones have their own volume setting separate from the device connected"

"i miss my lites with their longer battery life the neckband sitting balanced on my neck rather than weighted on one side with the control buttons and slipping to the right like these ones do and the small ear pieces of the lites compared to the bulkier heavier ear pieces of the slim which can become uncomfortable to wear for long periods"

"also there's alot of included accesories from tips and wingtips to a storage pouch and others"

"after buying this product i had a very bad experience with it read my old review below "

"overall i would recommend these headphones as a cheaper alternative to the airpods or for a pair of headphones you can take to the gym and not worry about sweating on too much thanks to the ipx7 waterproofing giving you that peace of mind something other sports headphones such as the beats x which cost 4 5x as much lack any sort of ip rating"

"set up at 2pm and return back to seller at 5"

"it took me 4 tries just now to get them connected"

"it sounds a little flat"
