Wireless Bluetooth Earbuds, Syllable Sweatproof in-Ear Earphones with Mic and Smart Charging Box Dock for Sports Running (Black) (Black1)

UPDATE: After some time wearing these around, I can say that the direction I wear them is very important. If I put them in my ears the way they're shown in the pictures, my experience isn't good. Lots of cutouts. Lots of losing sync between the two. BUT - if I wear them the other direction, with the bulbous end pointed kind of downward, they work great. It looks a little goofy - but the experience is the much more positive one I describe below. Maybe it's my head. Maybe it's the pocket I keep my phone in. (Left front.) Or maybe. . . maybe someone photoshopped the lifestyle product pictures incorrectly. :)Now back to the review as previously written.For the last couple of years, I've been happily using a pair of Jaybird Bluebud X bluetooth headphones with expensive Comply foam tips. Those foam tips started degrading, and I was left weighing my options. Spend a ridiculous amount on replacement tips, or take a chance on a cheap set of earbuds that will hold me over until the next version of the Samsung IconX or the Google Pixelbuds come out and I feel ready to part with $150+. So I found Syllable's d900p earbuds. I thought, "No cord to dangle behind my neck? Bluetooth 5.0? Magnetic charging case? For a little more than a set of replacement foam tips? No way these can deliver on all that and be any good." But I decided to roll the dice. The price is hard to pass up, and I actually really like the brand name compared to so many other weird sounding brands out of China.In evaluating these earbuds after my first full day, it's impossible not to heavily weight my rating on a value scale. What you get for the price is impressive. For that reason, I have a hard time knocking off a star for little things that don't really impact the overall functionality - like the charging case not displaying how much charge is left. I will say that my earbud needs are relatively simple. I don't do a lot of talking on the phone (didn't even really test that), and I mostly listen to podcasts, so I don't need incredible audio fidelity. The headphones sound fine for that, so I'm pleased. Volume is strong, and they create a good seal to reduce ambient noise. From reading reviews of more expensive earbuds, I expected that there might be annoying dropouts where one earbud would lose sync with the other - but that barely happened. On the couple of rare occasions that they did lose sync over the course of a full day, they immediately corrected themselves without me doing anything. I'm used to bluetooth headphones cutting out as I cross beneath traffic lights on my walking commute. That did not happen at all with these. In fact, I was really happy with how solid the connection was no matter where I walked.Back home, I watched some YouTube videos and didn't have any lag between the sound and picture. I attribute that to Bluetooth 5.0, which my phone supports. I don't know if you'd be able to expect the same consistent connectivity if your phone uses an older radio version.Controls are simple. A button press on either earbud will pause and play the music. Volume is controlled on the phone. I even get a battery percentage for the earbuds on my phone in 10% increments - though I don't know how accurate that is. The headphones gave me a battery warning and died shortly after I saw 30% in my phone's notification dropdown. Still, I think I got a solid 5 hours of podcast playback on this first day, and they were fully charged again in just under an hour and a half. (I had the charging case plugged in during that time - so I don't know if that speed up or slowed down the process.)Pairing was a little tricky for me. The instructions could be better. For this first day, the earbuds wouldn't auto-connect to my phone. But after a night in the charging case, they now auto-connect pretty quickly. I'm not sure why it's happening now and not before - but it might be a conflicting bluetooth device that I removed from my phone's setup. All is good!It was a hot day out, and I was definitely sweating. No problems with the earbuds falling out. Positioning them comfortably in the ears took a little trial and error, but I found them pleasant to wear as long as I didn't twist them in too aggressively.The charging case feels a bit fragile, and I found it a little fiddly to open the magnetic lid. (There's a raised arrow indicating the open direction and offering some texture, but it's too high up on the curve of the case to be effective as a thumb grip.) I love that the earbuds connect to their compartments in the case magnetically - though I did find that shaking the case might cause the connection to be briefly interrupted - so keep an eye on that if they get jarred in your pocket or bag. Time will tell if that's actually a problem or not.Bottom line: I'm excited about these earbuds. I'm hoping they last a while - and if they do, I'll have a whole new perspective on how much money I actually need to spend on walk-around earbuds. If you have a phone that supports Bluetooth 5.0, give these a shot. I think you'll be pleased.

This is my first pair of wireless headphones and these things give me a whole new level of freedom! They look very beautiful and the quality is great. The headphones come with a small case that can recharge the headphones.My wife has a pair of AirPods. The connection of these headphones to my iPhone is not so easy as using AirPods. But the connection of these headphones to my device is already very simple, you are able to connect to your phone, laptop, tablet, or any other device. They feel comfortable in my ears and the sound quality is good. This is a great choice especially considering the price of $34.99.

Pros: good, quick connection to phone or bluetooth watch. Decent sound. Look good..not the bulky over head earphones.Cons: battery life not great. Need to stay on top of charging these up in their cradle. I would also love a way to adjust volume, though I know at the same time there are limitations by the size.. it just would be nice not to have to use your device for volume, especially when paired with a watch and you are out for a run.

This is a really hard review to write. On one hand, there are some good things to like about these, on the other hand, they have some problems that really, really get in the way of use.Sound is great, especially considering their price. Mids and highs are clear, bass is substantial. You won't get thumping lows, but you don't want that in earbuds anyway. It's really clear, and it's easily on par with $50 earbuds. But that's to be expected with technology -- some things come down in price and up in quality.Some things don't, though.Connectivity is poor with these. At first I thought it was the original set of earbuds I got, but after replacing them, I discovered it wasn't. Maybe it was my phone, but changing devices doesn't help. The problem is everything is controlled by the left earbud, and its antenna is really weak. Your phone might be sending out a signal as strong as Jupiter's gravity, but the earbuds just can't reciprocate it. I've found that my body is enough of a disturbance that keeping my phone in my front right pocket causes frequent interruptions, about every two to three seconds.With connectivity issues comes battery problems. They claim 3.5 hours, but I usually get 2, and an extra hour with a charge from the case.Finally, their microphone for voice is rubbish. They're easily the worst headset I've used for talking, so much so that I just took away voice permissions so it goes to my handset. I started keeping a second, wired, headset in my car one-ear use with voice. It's seriously bad.All in all, these earbuds start off promising with sound, but as soon as you take them on a walk, they become less than adequate.

These headphones are the worst products ever made. They drop connection. The audio cuts in and out. The battery last for about 30 min. I wish I returned them before I wasted my money. The one star goes to the quality of audio which, similar to the headphone you get when you buy a new iPhone.

Built quality is great. Sound lacks some bass. The earbud itself is too big for ear canal. Because it is big you can`t insert it fully to ear, which results in hollow sound.

I think that these may have solved my dongle issue for good. After replacing the dongle to connect headphones yet again, I looked at Bluetooth again. I say again because I have 3 different ones- all lousy. They cut in and out and I find the connecting wire annoying. I took a chance and so far I am very happy. Instructions were a bit lacking, but I figured out the pairing. So far, so good. Sound quality is fine for me and they have not cut out. Really nice when mowing and doing yard work. They stay in place. I will give them a while and most likely will buy another pair for work.

Very nice. Easy to sync and operate. They didn’t quite suit me, so I gave them to my son in the military and he likes them. Comes with several pair of silicon ear fit pieces, so you can adjust fit in your ear. Very well made and great sound.
