After wearing earplugs every night for a decade my ears finally said no more, even to the in-ear earbud which was gentle in comparison. These took a bit to get used to but now I don't even feel them wearing them for an extended time. And they are great for work when I need to hear what's going on around me. They hold a charge and the batteries least forever!

I was pleasantly surprised by these wireless earbuds. I have a number of wireless earbuds, but these fit a niche that others don't fulfill. Most wireless earbuds are sound isolating by design and more advanced models include active noise cancelling capabilities. These, however, welcome outer sound in. Why? There are some use cases where it's safer to be able to hear your surroundings, like when on a run outdoors. Even though these earbuds don't go into your ear, they clip on securely and come with two additional spacers to fit nearly any size ears. I wore these while changing my oil on my driveway and could still hear my kids talking to me. Because there is little isolation, the sound quality isn't the highest. However, given the use case that these are made for, they're more than adequate. Overall, I enjoy these earbuds, but note that they're not for every situation.
