Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings, help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyses reviews to verify trustworthiness.

I've had these for a couple of months and they work perfectly despite being renewed. It's a great fit into my ears as well as my current Apple ecosystem!
Obviously, you aren't getting these for their sound quality (even if they sound much better than previous models) but for practicality and everyday use, it gets 5 stars on that front.
Spatial audio is a great addition which I mainly use whilst travelling on the underground. Fixed is fine but I find head tracking to be a novelty feature which does work but I don't normally use it. What's smart is that it remembers to switch between fixed and head tracking for different media. So if I'm listening to music it's fixed but if I watch a video it switches automatically to head tracking.
If you want noise cancelling then look elsewhere. these aren't it. You'll have to pay more for the Pros or accept that you will have to get cheaper probably better-sounding earbuds but they won't have that Apple integration which you have with these.
Can't control the volume from the AirPods which isn't great as I have an Apple watch I still don't need to get my phone out to change the volume...bear that in mind as can be annoying
So yeah 5 stars for the overall experience using these headphones in my existing Apple ecosystem but I am not stupid enough to know there are better earbuds out there but none will work as seamlessly as this if you happen to own a MacBook, iPhone or Apple Watch.
Would never know it was refurbished! Appsalute spot on. The quality way really good. It said in the description that there may be some light scratches and there were but you really had to look hard. Betther than expected and very happy!

Ottima qualità di costruzione. "Scatola" piccola e solida. Molto ben integrate con i dispositivi Apple e con un'ottima stabilità della connessione bluetooth. Come ci si aspetta da un prodotto della mela: tutto funziona al primo colpo senza problemi, anche con dispositivi multipli (iPhone, Mac, iPad). Le altre cuffie che ho provato (Soundpets, JBL..nella fascia dei 50-70Euro) hanno mostrato connessioni traballanti, queste costano di più ma è tutta un'altra cosa.
Benché non abbiano cuscinetti in silicone, si adeguano bene all'orecchio e sono comode. I comandi sono essenziali, c'è un solo sensore (play/stop, avanti, indietro e Siri) e non c'è il controllo del volume (aaargh!!).
Isolamento dai rumori esterni quasi nullo.
Sono le uniche cuffie che abbia trovato che permettono di avere una qualità decente delle chiamate al telefono.
Suono*: sono sempre cuffiette bluetooth quindi non immaginatevi chissà che cosa. Però il suono è ben bilanciato, bassi profondi, abbastanza veloci e poco enfatizzati. Gli acuti non sono brillantissimi. La gamma media discreta (ma nulla a che vedere con cuffie "vere" come le mie Grado SR125e). L'audio spaziale è intrigante e da un po' di piacevole estensione al suono, anche se non riesce a ricreare una scena audio verosimile come dei buoni diffusori. Potenza non eccezionale. *Mac con Apple Music Atmos Auto, lossless massima qualità. Peter Gabriel, Steven Wilson, King Crimson e ...Madonna.
In conclusione, vanno bene, hanno un suono ben equilibrato e si integrano a meraviglia nell'ecosistema Apple. Il costo è...Apple.
