  These appear to be dogged by connectivity issues. This is the V1, the V3 are also for sale @ JB and are $500.

  These are hot dog shit. Constantly disconnects for 0.5 second, totally ruins anything you listen to.
  Got replacements that were exactly the same.

  My airdots were 100x better than these, and they were $30.

    Same thing happened to me with 2 different pairs. They suck, thanks to amazon I just returned them.

  Mine haven't had those connectivity problems. The reception isn't as good as the Buds Live though - those are amazing.

  Is this a good brand for audio gear? Or just overpriced items like Beats?

    No. I've owned one of these for 2 years, I can confidently say that they were one of my worst purchases ever. The audio quality was trash, battery life ran out quickly. Trash buds.

    As with everything audio, it's very subjective. I have a number of earbuds and find them fine. Not amazing, but definitely not bad.
    Battery life is normal for earbuds from that generation.

    At $111 they're worth considering, although personally I'd rather go for e.g. the Buds Live which was $134 recently. This model is from the early days of Bluetooth earbuds - they've advanced a fair bit since then.

    I feel bad for anyone who was conned into buying a pair. Wouldn't even use them if they were free.

      There must have been a bad batch, and both your pairs were from that batch. I got mine free and they work just fine.

        Nah. Save the bullshit, you got lucky. Just Google it, it's not a batch issue.

        I also had 3 new sets over 12 months that all were bad.

          So my batch was good and yours wasn't then? :)

  Returned mine just before warranty ran out. Durability is really iffy but sound quality wise, it's outstanding!
