The sound quality of both music and telephone calls is outstanding. I'm upgrading from a Lenovo I purchased from a very popular app. Comes in a case, which is quite smaller than my old Lenovo case, the photograph shows it next to a standard video game controller for size comparison. Easy to use, easy to pair, and has a fantastic sound. A lot more that I was expecting for the price.

Fiest of all I love these earbuds. Finally earbuds with active NC and without these weird rubber thingies that slip off when sweating a little. The sound is really great with the correct equalizer settings(see picture). I have had no problems connection wise until the new firmware update came.
With this new firmware update 14.05, the earbuds all of a sudden started to have little connection drops. I have had no issues like this before the update.
It would be great if soundcore could look into this and offer a fix.

I have only two complaints for these headphones. They are an amazing value for the price, and are comfortable, functional, and sound great.However:1) The case seems engineered in such a way that when you drop it, it launches both earbuds at high speed.2) When the earbuds are knocked out of the case this way, they do not TURN ON, so you can't just play loud music to find them!Still, well worth it, will buy again if I can't find the missing one soon.

These are by far the best earbuds I have purchased - and by no means the most expensive! Coupled with the sound app, the versatility of sound is unparalleled. I’ve been using these for several months now and have absolutely no complaints. Bottom line : I love these!
