Previously to buying these, I was a bit of a headphone snob, however, I eventually tired of taking my gigantic open back beyerdynamic dt 990s with me everywhere and decided to opt for these for my day to day commutes. All I can say is I'm seriously impressed with the sound quality and the overall user experience.
The sound quality is a 9/10. My last pair of in-ear headphones was around a decade ago and all I can say is there has been some SERIOUS technological advancement in this area in that time. The quality does start to break up a bit the higher you crank the volume but, at a moderate volume, these easily match or beat the sound quality you'd get from any headphones under £70.
I got lucky that the buds fit perfectly with the default rubber seals but there are smaller and larger options provided if you have a particularly tight or gaping ear canal. They fit securely and I don't really worry about them falling out.
The active noise cancelling is a game changer for drowning out the tram noises of my commutes and ability to easily switch it on and off is also appreciated. The touch gestures are a little finicky. The basic controls work reasonably well but this way of interfacing starts to fall apart when you start trying to do "double taps" in order to skip to the next song etc.
The charging case feels snappy and high quality and, especially when paired with a wireless charger, makes for a very streamlined and frictionless user experience. I'm extremely clumsy and have dropped the case and the earbuds multiple times from heights of around 4 feet with no visible signs of damage (so far),
The only things I can't comment on is the battery life (as I charge them every night and only use them for 2-3 hours per day) and the call quality (as nobody calls me because I'm a loser with no friends).
Overall I have been converted to the buds life. 9/10. Wish they came in some more colours
