Nearly Perfect All Around Earbuds
on October 29, 2020
Posted by: theosdarkforge
Verified Purchase:Yes
I spent a long time figuring out what earbuds were going to work for me. I work from home and was wanting something for pretty much any situation. Working on my PC, working on the go with my Macbook, something to listen to when I'm out in the yard, or doing chores around the house, you name it.
I landed on these because of their build quality, small compact size, and great fit.
The earbuds and case are built very well and feel great. Love the look, and they feel super durable and the earbud cases can easily be taken off and cleaned with some water. The USB-C charging case is great and compact with plenty of juice to only need to charge it once every week or two for my use.
The fit took some getting used to since they create a pretty tight seal in your ears which blocks out a lot of outside noise. The benefit is some isolation if you want it but also a very good fit. Once they are in, they are in and I don't have to worry about them falling out or shifting pretty much at all even when I'm wandering around doing chores out in the yard.
The sound quality might not be top class, but it's very good and that wasn't at the top of my list. I almost always have these in my pocket now.
If I had to make a wishlist for the next version, I'd add wireless charging to the case and switch up the controls from having to push on the side of the earbuds since they can dig into your ear canal a bit. Multi-device pairing support would be a nice touch as well.
All in all, perfect for what I need, and will be sticking with these for awhile!

Exactly What I Needed!

Verified Purchase:Yes
We had an older Roku 3 hooked up to our bedroom TV and were always wanting to figure out a solution to not have to juggle two remotes for controlling the Roku and then controlling the TV volume and power. This was the answer!
I've always loved the feel and compact size of the Roku remotes, especially the newer ones that are a bit slimmer and have rubber buttons instead of the old glossy plastic they used to use. It's very lightweight, but it's my favorite remote to use.
Best of all, it controls our small bedroom Samsung TV's volume automatically with the side volume buttons and turns it on and off with the power button. Now we are down to just this single Roku remote for our bedroom setup and it works every time!

Good but not Great
on October 29, 2020
Posted by: theosdarkforge
Verified Purchase:Yes
I tried these headphones for about a week alongside the Sony XM4s. There is a lot to like here, and it really just depends on what you're looking for.
To start, the build quality is very good. Nice materials, great matte black look that doesn't pick up fingerprints easily. They are a bit heavier than the XM4s, but they feel nice. The dials for volume and noise cancellation control are amazing and the one thing I wish was on more competing products. The only gripe there was that there was some slight play on the right volume wheel if just barely try to rock it back and forth, but nothing functional.
Comfort-wise, they do the job, but the weight and less cushy headband make them a little less comfortable after a few hours than the XM4s. I usually am taking my headphones off anyway for a few minutes here and there, but there is some fatigue when trying to go through a large chunk of the workday.
The voice assistant is great for giving you notifications on hours left of listening time, and the battery life of around 20 hours is just fine, although a bit less than the XM4s at around 30.
The noise cancellation is very good, but it doesn't stand up to Sony's tech. I'd say the same about the sound. They sound just fine, but I constantly found myself going back to the XM4s as they are just more fun to listen to and have a much more vibrant and wide sound to them.
The multi-device pairing worked as well as anything else I've tried. Switching between devices sometimes has a delay before the audio picks up, but it never failed to switch over when I was moving between my PC and my phone.
Overall, I loved the build quality and feel of the Surface Headphones 2 along with their amazing dials on each side, but I ended up going with the XM4s due to the sound profile and noise cancellation being in a different league over there. Albeit for a much higher price.

Needed a switch to expand the ports on my Google Wifi router. Plugged it in and worked straight away. I do wish all the ports were on the same side as the power plug to hide the wires easier, but not a big deal at this price.

Great Leveling, Messy Endgame
on October 22, 2018

Verified Purchase:Yes
The new zones and questing experience was really enjoyable and had a lot of content. I'm not much of a raider anyway, but the end game offerings were a bit messy and got boring pretty quickly. I mainly play for the story, and was still really well put together on that front.

Not Great for Multiple Display Setup
on October 22, 2018
Posted by: theosdarkforge
Verified Purchase:Yes
Bought a few of these to use in an office. The display quality was pretty good, apart from the calibration not matching that great from screen to screen. The worst part was the stand that is really poorly attached to the monitor, which makes it slightly tilt to one side, making it impossible to get more than one exactly even when standing next to each other. Would only buy if needing one single monitor.

We didn't need anything fancy, just wanted something that looked decent and didn't feel like it was going to break easily. This toaster has been great, no issues, and great price on sale.

When using these outdoors on a windy day the microphone exacerbates the wind picked up by the microphones. Do all ANC headphones have this issue or just these?
I've tested a few different ANC headphones and the performance varies as it really depends on the microphone, but I've never been able to fully get away from the wind. From what I've heard and experienced, Bose has some of the best microphones, but even those are probably not going to block out 100% of the wind.
