I wanted to update my review to describe my disappointment: these earbuds are amazing, until they randomly stop working. The sound quality is superb, and the latency is so low that I can play games using them. But there's something seriously wrong with them:
I bought them on April 2023, and after 6 months only, the left earbud just stopped working for absolutely no reason. I didn't damage them, didn't splash them with water, didn't do anything. I was listening to some music, and the left earbud just went silent.
I followed the factory's instructions and reset them multiple times, but no success at all. I claimed warranty, and got a brand new pair as a replacement. They worked great for 6 months, then the right earbud stopped working. I was playing a pc game using them and they were totally fine, then I finished and put them back in the case. After 2 hours, I put them on only to find that the right earbud no longer works. It gives very faint ticking sounds, but no audio at all.
I have no idea what's going on, and I saw some online forms with people complaining about the exact same issue. And I don't know why 6 months seems like the magic number here.
Update 2 in 2026: I recently learned why this issue happens. There's a known manufacturing defect in these earphones. The coil under the membrane has a hair-thin wire attaching it to the underlying circuitry, and the connection is so weak that this wire can get detached due to vibrations, causing it to disconnect and kill the earbud. Keep that in mind when you opt for these, and keep your receipt handy in case you need to claim warranty.
