Phenomenal noise cancellation, easy to use, but subpar audio quality
These are easy to use. If you have a Samsung Galaxy smartphone, they will pair automatically with your phone. All you have to do is take the earbuds out of the well-constructed case, and the buds will seamlessly connect. The case is small enough to be unobtrusive in your pocket, a feature that I appreciate. It fits snugly and perfectly in the small coin pocket in my jeans. The noise cancellation feature performs astoundingly well.
You can tap once to play or pause, tap twice to skip to the next track, or tap twice to go to the previous track. You can customize what happens when you long-press the earbuds. The surface of the earbuds sometimes fails to register taps.
However, the sound quality isn't quite what I expected from paying $70 for a set of earbuds. Although high-frequency sounds such as voices sound good, lower frequency sounds such as rock music don't sound good at all. The sound often sounds like a muddled, crackling mess. I tried listening to music on my phone and on my PC, so I know it isn't a problem with my phone. Maybe I got a defective unit or something. To be fair, although the sound isn't stellar, it is still better than the audio on my Mpow bluetooth headphones.
