Our second one of these

We had a slightly smaller capacity one of these for ~12 years until the nut that holds the tub to the spindle kept coming loose. No other issues with that one, and this new one is bigger and does a great job.

Good phones, strange software
on July 1, 2022
Posted by: johnd
Verified Purchase:Yes
The headphones seem to work well. I rode on several days of airline travel and they do a good job of substantially cutting down the engine noise and I can hear movies very clearly. Music sounds good. My ears often hurt with headphones squeezing into them but these have been comfortable for many hours of continuous use, they don't hurt and I forget they are there. Do be sure you are taking the time to fit them properly, it was a little different than other earbuds I've used. Battery life is great, I watched a number of movies with noise canceling on, and just put the buds back in the wireless case and they charged right back up quickly. I went days without charging the case and it never stopped charging the earbuds.
The complaint I have is about pairing them and the software. The software seems good, and I like being able to use it to adjust sound properties, but I wish it integrated better with my iPhone. Pairing both earbuds took several tries and I was initially frustrated. I haven't tried un-pairing them and pairing them to something else, I assume I will have the same issues.
Overall great for sound, noise cancellation, battery life and comfort. A little annoyed with pairing and software (wish I didn't have to use it) but has been OK once I did it the first time.

great accessory for the Charge 5
on January 14, 2022
Posted by: johnd
Verified Purchase:Yes
This fits the Charge 5 perfectly and I love the extra space for cords.
It is lightweight, but looks good and doesn't add a ton to the size, but I have to admit the Charge 5 is big all on its own.

Great for my college kid, I'd love to get one, too

Verified Purchase:Yes
I bought this as a graduation gift for our son, and he uses it at college.
He loves to show it off, and feels like he has the best laptop at the school.
He enjoys watching streaming videos on it and playing games as well, the screen image is beautiful.
With its incredibly low profile and light weight it is super portable, and he loves the battery life.

The best inductive charger I've seen
on January 14, 2022
Posted by: johnd
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have several other inductive chargers, and if any of our phones have cases (they all do) the charging is hit-or-miss, even with name-brand factory chargers.
This one, though, I just sit my iphone on it and it charges every time. The phone is always warm once I pick it up because it actually does charge, and I don't have to be micrometer-precise in positioning the phone, it just charges as long as it is on the pad.
Highly recommend.

deep, beautifully resonant sound.

It sounds amazing.
I love that it floats, I love that I can charge my phone or ipad. It fills a large room very well, we use it when we entertain and it sits discretely on a shelf in the corner and sound seems like it just comes from everywhere.
I cold do without its startup and shutdown sounds, but that is not a big deal/
