So very disappointed! Replaced a Hullaport Aero with this model. Youre home most of the day but active cleaning, cooking, running after kids, etc. The outside is still like new, although the inside is a little worn. I gotta say, Im really impressed with the sound! I like the sound, i think there great, too bad they hurt my inner ear after 30 - 60mins of wearing, very sore feeling when taking them off, maybe my ear isnt suited for these earphones, i wont drop it more stars because of it - Mediocre noise isolation. Decent length for all my needs and with its fibre covering it never feels like it’s going to ever break. I wore the sandals 2 times before the emblem fell off the top. Its a protective coating to keep the metal from rusting.
