    Only suitable for jogging or sports. Not suitable for everyday use due to delay in videos and modest sound quality.

    As long as you use these headphones only for listening to music while doing sports, they are good. I run a lot - especially in the woods - and was mostly out and about with one earpiece, because when you use both earpieces you almost don't hear any ambient noise.
    In everyday life, however, it has some weaknesses - especially when watching videos. Since the left headphone connects to the phone via the right one, there is a noticeable delay. This doesn't matter when you're just listening to music, but not when watching videos, as the delay is around one second. This is very annoying. You can counteract this by only using the right headset when watching videos. Then there is no delay. But for 200 franc headphones, I expect more.
     

    Pro

    • Hold great in the ear
    • No cables - "True Wireless" (especially helpful when jogging, in my opinion)
    • Only one headphone can be used alone (but only the right one).
    • Accessories
    • Good for cycling with a plug (you can hear the road with your left ear)

    Contra

    • Lag/delay when using both headphones. Very annoying with video
    • Headphones isolate almost too well for running, perceive almost no ambient noise
    • Connection with between headphones and/or with Bluetooth
    • Sound quality rather modest (despite Jaybird app), at times a little metallic
    • Price
    • Sweat accumulates & can create a kind of suction effect in the ear. Must be shaken out from time to time

    Perfect for sports. Less for series

    The headphones are very secure in the ear! I use them when I ride my BMX, it gets really bumpy and none of them have ever fallen out.
    The maximum volume is a bit low. Unfortunately not suitable for streaming series because
    of a long delay.

    + Good quality + Very light + Charges quickly - Poor sound (hardly any bass despite equaliser) - Constant failure of one pair of headphones - Very light (you get the feeling they'll fall out) - Only two controls - No need for a separate headset

    I bought the headphones yesterday. Full of expectations. Unfortunately, they are just too bad for the price.

    Watching series on YouTube. At the beginning there's almost a second's delay, but when you let it run it levels
    itself out again.

    The first time I turned on the app with the headphones on, it was a huge mistake. One went off and the other started whistling. The only way to stop it was to put it back in the charging station.

    While exercising, the left side just went out every now and then. Then you have to take a break, turn one side off and turn it on again. That's annoying.

    The app offers an equaliser. That's quite pleasant because you can adjust the sound. You can also control Spotify directly via the app. That is an advantage.

    The headphones fit well, you hardly notice them. Unfortunately, however, you sometimes get the feeling that they fall out. Which is distracting.
