These earbuds are pretty cool if you're going to use them casually. I only had a few issues with them, one of them being the reason I'm returning them.
The first one is the Ambient noise feature, it allows you to hear things around you when both earbuds are in by using the mic. Great idea, but the delay on it makes it annoying to use. Someone says something and a half second or so later you hear it. Doesn't sound like a lot, but trust me, it gets annoying.
The 2nd issue is that they hurt your ears if left in for a long time. I think you can fix this by testing the different rubber pieces it gives you but I couldn't get them to stop hurting.
The main issue for me is the battery life. I went from an LG headset that lasted 10 hours of non stop use a day to these which if I was lucky, would last 1.5hrs or so. These would be great for people who use them for a workout session or just casual use, but for people who want to use them longer, I'd wait until they improve battery life. I'm going to return these until they can at least double the battery life and fix the lag on ambient noise.
They're a cool idea but an example as to why buying the first generation is not always a good idea.
