I have many different sets of earbuds, I keep a couple sets at both my home office, work cubicle, backpack and car. You never know when you may need them or have issues connecting with a particular set. Overall these earbuds have great sound quality, the bass is lacking a bit, but better than some others. They are on par with some of "nicest" ones I have, S.x#@+ng buds and plus, can't compare with the fruit pods as I don't have those, but they are sleek and stylish. The charging case is small, has led battery capacity readout, uses usb-c and has wireless charging capability! Some earbuds have greater distance only when listening to music and lesser when also using the microphone, but these have great distance for both uses. These will probably become one of my go to earbuds for meetings due to the increased distance when using voice. My only gripe is the only instructions that came with mine were not in English, but I was still able to figure it all out.
