The best earbud headphone I have ever used.
I have never purchased BEATS products before. I figured I could get something just as good, for far less in price than just paying for a name. How wrong I was. Sometimes you do get what you pay for. First let me say these were so reasonable in price I thought they made a mistake and left the number 1 off in front of the 34. I honestly and absolutely can say without hesitation that these are AMAZING. Besides the price being phenomenal, the way they fit my ear and don’t bother me after a while is Great! I have fallen asleep with these on and have not been woken up by pain after having them in literally all day and night. I am not sure what the actual BEATS description said about the amount of time you have before having to charge them but in the past week I have had them, I have only charged them twice for an hour each time and got 30+ hours of use out of them. They also come with small, medium and large covers for the ear part, also in the same blue to match. For me since I have small ears I use the smallest ones and they fit snuggly and comfortably. The sound is far above any other ear buds, ear phone or any other device like this that I have ever tried. They give a clear cleans crisp sound, while shutting out the noises going on around you. I can finally sit in my recliner, either reading or listening to music and not hear what my husband has blasting on the TV because he is hard of hearing and quite honestly I miss all his commentaries he loves sharing with the TV. These are by far on my top 10 lists of OH MY GOODNESS WHY DIDN’T I TRY THIS SOONER. They are really great and come in nice choices of colors.

Great Neckband
Gave my first pair to my mom two years ago. Still works. Decided to buy one again for myself. Great sound for music. Bass is good but not overpowering. Build quality is ok as well. If you want a neckband with less bass and balanced sound buy JBL Tune 125BT. While build quality is slightly worse sound is still good and battery life is longer. Both are great overall.

My Favorite Daily Use Headphones
When I’m on the go, at work, or just casually listening around the house these have been my go to headphones for a variety of reasons.Sound: They sound just fine. Not great, but not so bad that its too bad to listen to your favorite songs. I use Sennheiser HD600s at my desk and these are no where close but for a cheap set of bluetooth headphones they are totally passable. I normally listen around half volume which is plenty loud at least for me. Full volume is painful, I see other reviewers complaining about the battery life at full volume and I have to wonder what their hearing is like.Battery: These will get me though a 12 hour shift, admittedly not listening to music the whole time and through a few hours of YouTube or TV when I get home. They charge extremely quickly too when the battery gets low. If I forget to charge them over night I can throw them on the charger for a few minutes at work and be fine for the rest of the day. The USB C port is annoying, I have an iPhone so I have to have two cables, but I also carry a USB C external SSD so I just use the cable from that with my laptop.Noise isolation: These things SHINE at passive noise isolation. Its like you have reusable earplugs in that just happen to have drivers. I work on cars a lot and work in a machine shop, so hearing protection is something I need to be wearing most of the time and something I want to have easy access to at all times. If I don’t have my beats in my ears they’re around my neck almost all day so if I’m about to do something I think will be loud, blowing out a hole with an air hose for example, I can throw them in my ears in seconds and have a decent level of protection. I wouldn’t use these at a gun range but for me on a daily use basis they work great.Fit and comfort: When I’m running or working under a car the neck part likes to fall off. To get around this i put the headphones on upside down, with the usb port facing up, and then cross the ear bud cords in front of my neck so they still go in their respective ears. This is not how I normally wear them but it does work if I find myself in that situation. I had a set of airpods and they kept falling out of my ears, I switched back to these tethered style earbuds after one of my airpods fell out of my ears into a coolant tank. These stay in all day no problems because the majority of the weight is around your neck and not hanging out of your ears.Only part I dislike is the magnet in the buds, It attracts metal and gets stuck to stuff if you lean over. I don’t think they’re necessary but that’s a monitor complaint.

Great product, could be perfect with two additional features…
First of all, these are great earbuds for sound quality, durability/battery life, connectivity, and overall convenience. I’m not a fan of the AirPod style earbuds because I don’t like to keep them in my ears constantly, and also they are easier to lose. Having these Beats hanging around the neck is incredibly convenient, particularly since you can set them to auto-answer a call when you disconnect the magnetic buds from each other. So, what could make them better? (If not close to perfect…)1. There needs to be a way to mute the microphone directly from the headset. (I suspect this could be done in firmware.) It would be incredibly convenient to be able to mute/unmute with a button on the unit instead of having to pull your phone out of your pocket or walk over to your laptop to mute.2. The buds will answer a call when you pull them apart, but they do not hang up the call when you snap them back together. Again, this means you have to pull your phone out to hang up (or hope the other party hangs up). There should be an option to hang up the call when you re-attach the buds to each other.These buds connect/disconnect seamlessly between my Galaxy Phone and my Mac laptop, I’ve had no issues switching them between the two devices. Having said that, they are so convenient I bought a second set so that I could leave each one dedicated to my phone and my laptop.One additional comment in case anyone was wondering: these are not good for running. The wire bounces up and down and will pull the buds out of your ears. Since I have a different product for running I’m not dinging the Flex for that. I use them exclusively for Zoom calls, phone calls, and listening to movies/music on airplanes. The audio quality is pretty good, and I’m a bit picky in that area.I hope these comments are helpful to potential buyers.

I love these earbuds and they’ve become my go-to for hiking/backpacking, skiing, running, & horseback riding. I really like that they have the cord that loops behind your neck so that if they fall out of your ears you don’t lose one. My favorite feature has to be the magnets on the back of the earbuds so that you can snap them together like a necklace – it automatically shuts off the earbuds and lets me switch quickly and easily without worrying about losing them or having to pack them away in a charging case or something every time I take them off. Because the battery/bluetooth is in the cable part not the earbuds, they’re more like the size of wired earbuds and so they’re really comfortable to wear to bed or under my ski helmet since they don’t stick out. Battery life is great, really easy to connect to my iPhone or my Garmin smartwatch, and I love how when you quick connect them to iPhone you get a battery status update. They aren’t great at noise cancellation and the sound quality is good but not great, but they’re my go-to for any kind of active/athletic activity.

Horrible experience with these earphones that I received in not working order. What’s even more disgusting is the effort I have to put in to get it shipped back. I am very unhappy with the return policy and the inconvenience I have to go through for a product that was sent faulty! Please correct it from your end and not hassle costumers
