Finally a pair of earbuds I like.. and really like. They're comfortable, stay in, and I even forget I have them in. Sound quality is good although I don't hear bass the way I do on headphones. The storage/charging case is super well designed with very tight tolerances and a good spring clip. The magnets inside the case ensure you get the right bud in the right receptacle the first time. The control mechanism is proximity of a human finger near the stem part of the buds (must be some sort of induction). One tap, two taps, one long hold, each one means something in terms of control Long battery life.

I've been using the Tozo A3 earbuds for the past couple years. The Tozos die after about a year (and for $20/set I'm not complaining) and after my second set died I decided to try these since they were half off making them a little cheaper.Pros:Comfort. They just kind of slid into place without moving or pushing up against any part of my ear. Literally like they're not even there. It'd weird and oddly satisfying.Sound quality. Definitely better than the tozos, which I wasn't complaining about in the first place. I got the soundcore app and turned on bass boost, which isn't like super bass. If any fellow millennial remember portable cd players and the Bass Boost button, it has a similar effect.Awareness. Not 100% immersive unless I make it a point to push them into my ear. Since I use these a lot while working around the house and sometimes public places I appreciate being able to hear what is around me.ConsThe case. It works fine, it's just annoying and takes some time to get used to how to open it. But if you have fat fingers the entire earbud is exposed when you open it so I imagine it makes the earbud easier to grab.Controls. This is my one real gripe. By default, you can double-tap the earbud to stop and stop, and that's it. The app allows you to change that behavior, and what's more is you can delete the app if you want afterward since it saves the settings to the earbuds themselves, not your phone. So that's pretty cook.But the worst part about the controls... the worst part... is that you can configure it to set the volume by pressing and holding, but IT WILL ONLY DROP IT ONE LEVEL. Usually, you just PRESS AND HOLD to set and the longer you hold it down the more the volume will change.All that being said, they're actually pretty good earbuds and I'm happy i bought them

Was looking for something as close as possible to AirPods in regard to form factor. Many buds on Amazon look so similar but not quite the same. After hours of scrolling and comparing I settled on these ones. I was hoping to find some with active noise canceling but I'm ok these don't have it since my first gen AirPods didn't either. After a couple months of using here and there I'm pretty happy with my AirPod replacement. I think these Soundcore buds sounded a bit different right out of the box compared to Apple's buds. Not sure what it was, not as loud or not as bright or punchy, but all I had to do was download the soundcore app and connect to them and adjust the EQ to my liking which solved the issue for me just fine. Can definitely appreciate the EQ adjust. Also like that I can program different number of taps for each bud to do different actions. Awesome features I don't think I can do with AirPods. I kinda wish the case was a little more compact, and the hinged flap cover feels a little bit cheap and kinda noisy and "clappy" when I close it. Soundcore did so well replicating the buds form factor, they could have spent a bit more time finessing the case I think. So I'll take a star off just because of the case quality and size, but at least the buds are magnetized and drop into the case with a perfect fit. Case still looks cool, just a little big. I'm very satisfied with this purchase. Absolutely worth the price I'd say and would recommend to any friends looking for AirPod replacement. In my pic left side is Soundcore and right side is Apple.

These are a great alternative to 1st generation AirPods. It's difficult to find earbuds that are this shape and size. My wife prefers in ear earbuds that don't plug the ear with silicone or foam. The shape of the newer generation of Apple AirPods fall out of her ears. These fit well and the audio quality is comparable if not superior.

Where it seems they saved the most money is in the case. It does everything it needs to do fine. But it also feels cheap and is annoying to open (and hard to open in low light due to no real markings for orientation.Case is a C-.Sound quality is pretty good. If you mainly listen to highly compressed music or streaming, podcasts, or non-HD streaming digital music, it's actually doubtful spending more will give better results as the SBC codec and bit rates under 192Kb/sec already limit the sound quality below what these headphones can resolve. If you intend to listen to high bit rate and uncompressed digital music and are fussy about getting the very best possible sound, then this and other phones in this price range won't be for you.I think some good use cases for these:1 A spare pair to keep in the car or desk, in case you forget to bring in your "fancy" pair.2. If you are looking for high value or not spending much. It's hard to see how you'll do much better in this price category.3. You listen to audiobooks, podcasts, and highly compressed music on the go. These are just fine for all that out of the box.I'd say 5 stars for the price, 2.5-3 stars if price is not considered.

Works well, and battery is top notch. I bought these when my AirPods broke, and I must say the quality of the sound is very good. The AirPods themselves feel pretty cheap but that’s not why you buy these. Good sound.
