MEE audio X8 Secure-Fit Stereo Bluetooth Wireless Sports In-Ear Headphones (Blue)

My quest for the perfect work headphones is over! I wore them most of the day yesterday with very little discomfort. This is rare for me with on-ear phones since I wear glasses. Normally, I have to adjust the frames so they ride above the ear pieces. Not necessary with these headphones as the ear cups don't push on the top of my ears. The ear cup material is very soft and cool and doesn't exert much pressure on my ears at all. The top of the band is padded and doesn't hurt the top of my head after extended use. So, comfortable for all day use? Check.Many of the reviews say these sound good "for Bluetooth headphones". I don't have all that discerning of hearing apparently because to me they sound good "for headphones". Granted, I might think my wiMy quest for the perfect work headphones is over! I wore them all day yesterday with very little discomfort. This is rare for me work on ear phones since I wear glasses. Normally, I have to adjust the frames so they ride above the ear pieces. Not necessary with these headphones. The ear cup material is very soft and cool and doesn't exert much pressure on my ears at all. The top of the band is padded and doesn't hurt the top of my head after extended use. So, comfortable for all day use? Check.Many of the reviews say these sound good "for Bluetooth headphones". I don't have all that discerning of hearing apparently because to me they sound good "for headphones". Granted, I might think my weird Sennhausers that I use at home sound better if I did an A/B test but since I didn't, I have no complaints. These sound very good to me with complete silence between tracks. I usually have to play with the equalizer settings to get headphones to sound just like I like them but I didn't have to with these. So, sounds good? Check.I work in a cube farm, so I wear headphones so I don't have to listen to my neighbors all day. These headphones do a good job of minimizing outside noise without completely isolating me. I can still hear someone if they come up behind me and say my name loudly. I can't hear what they are saying but I can tell they are there. So, isolating? For my purposes, check. For sitting next to a jet engine, no.The wireless feature is very convenient. Granted, I am only using them in my cube so a wire isn't that big of a deal but it is still nice not having one. The range is very good, they still work on the other side of my office which is about 40 yards away from my tablet. They also work in the room next door which is separated from my tablet by an interior wall. I'd say that was pretty excellent. The controls on the side are very easy to use by touch so they work well. So, convenience? Check.Some reviewers have said these sound good for "wireless headphones" Personally, I think they sound good for "headphones" Granted my wired Sennhausers that I use at home would probably sound better if I did an A/B test but since I didn't, I have no complaints.

I heard the caller perfectly and she said I sounded good on the other end. They continued to work as I walked around the office. So, phone calls? Check.I used them for about 4 or 5 hours yesterday and for 2 hours so far this morning. When I just paired with my phone, battery life was reported as "high". I don't know exactly how long they will last before charging but battery life seems very good so far. So, battery life? Check.The were easy to pair. They look decent enough. They do fall off my ears if I shake my head vigorously so they might not be the best for working out or running. There is a very bright flashing light on the side. I can't see it when wearing the phones but I think it would be annoying to someone sitting next to me. I covered it up with a small piece of electrical tape. So, miscellaneous other stuff? Check.In summary, I am very happy with these headphones and feel no need to try any others. Well done! Nice headphones at a very good price!

I picked these up for my rail commute to work. I was tired of fiddling with the wires on my earbuds. After spending a ridiculous amount of time trying to figure out the best I finally ordered these. I figured for the ~$60 price, when I bought them, the risk was pretty low.I'm not an audiophile and do most of my listening on the iPhone, iPad or in my car. I find the sound just fine. They keep the outside sound down to a relatively unobtrusive level. I have noticed that on a really loud train car, like on a Friday afternoon when there is a lot of loud talk, the sounds come through as a low rumble or a mummur which can be a little bothersome. So far I've been able to tune it out.The battery life is fine. I generally charge them in my office and don't have any issues with that. On the one occasion that I did run the battery down, I found the stupid beeps that alert you to a low battery to be really annoying. They really don't need to let you know the battery is going dead every 60 seconds or so. I think some beeps at the END OF THE BATTERY charge would be more useful. I did use them as corded headphones that time the battery went dead. The sound is richer with the cord. You also lose all the headphone based controls when you switch to corded mode, which is pretty poor design if you ask me.The controls on the exterior of the ear piece are functional and do control my various apple devices just fine. As is the norm with cheap electronics, some of the buttons are multi-functional depending upon whether you press, press and hold and how long you press and hold. This is pretty tedious in my view and I would pay another dollar to get a separate bluetooth pairing button.Comfort is fine but I only wear them about an hour or so at a whack so they'd have to be really painful to be an issue for that short a usage time. If anything, they do at times feel lose on my head which can be a little distracting.They aren't very compact when shoved into the pouch that came with them but it hasn't been a huge issue for me.They look fine. I don't look or feel like a DJ when I'm wearing them and I'm okay with that. They kind of remind me of the headphones that Sweetmeat, the KSHE 95 pig, wore on posters and tee shirts back in the day in St. Louis.I rate them three stars because that is a "C" in my view. They meet expectations, don't offend too much, but don't excel greatly either and that includes the value proposition of the price.I might try some other bluetooth headphones. There are a couple of other brands in this sub $100 price range.
