Pros & Cons
Pros
Noise canceling is awesome. Many noise cancelling profiles in the app makes it very clever. Controls are easy and customizable.
Perfect for noisy environments where there are droning machines. The noise cancellation works excellent. The sound is really good with remarkable bass and it's even better once you tweak it the way you like through the app.
The anc is excellent with 3 varying degress of strength. These have deep rubling bass and clear highs. I am extremely pleased and highy recommended these without hesitation.
The case has a battery level indicator leds and can be recharged by wireless or usb c. The battery life is remarkable; it lasts 8 hours straight, and i need to charge the case once a week. Love that you can use just one pod at a time.
Cons
The most frustrating part is that it does not connect with the phone's bluetooth automatically at all times. Companion app is the only to use the advanced features such as equalization. The mic is unusable, even in a quiet office environment.
After about 10 hours of usage, the batteries are low are i've got to recharge every night. Noise cancellation is minimal to none. The battery life his no more than 3 hours at max with intermittent usage.
Right earbud started giving some mild static a few days ago. They are not compatible at all and tend to fall out of my ears. There's a pretty large delay in these earbuds and it completely destroys gaming experiences.
They fall out when walk, workout, sit at my desk for too long. They are just not an intuitive fit & don’t work well at all. The quality is just disappointing. Never in the rain, only inside or on sunny days.
Disappointment is an understatement! Such a shame :(. According to amazon support this is a designation that the vendor themselves puts on the product. Imo, this is borderline fraudulent practice by anker.
