Great e-watch... minus the battery.
Purchased this In April of 2018 for my wife's birthday. IIRC, it was easy to setup thru her iPhone 6... she loved wearing, tracking her steps, etc. Recently, the battery started acting up and decreasing charge. Finally, this afternoon it lasted maybe 3hours before it died. I've seen some videos on YT on how to change out the battery so I'll. E giving that a try as the worse that can happen is that I short it all out and completely kill it.Overall, I think it was a good purchase and, for how long the battery lasted, worthwhile. One star deducted due to the battery.

Decent Headphones, sounds good, dont make you look
I am not a big gamer or headphone guru, but I was satisfied with these. They sound good, they are comfortable on my (fairly giant-sized) head, and they dont make my ears all sweaty, although people using them for hours and hours on end might have trouble with ear-goo. On top of that these were pretty much the only headphones in this price class that didnt look like I was wearing a transformer on my head which is a big plus for me. Also was thrilled there were no christmas lights on these. Bright neon plastic with glowing/blinking lights isn't a good look for folks over 30.

comfortable even after 8+ hours
got this baby during the black friday as a sacred gift for myself and couldn't stop using it since. it's been an amazing product by design, quality and sounds. it is comfortable to wear, the noise cancellation made me thing that I have no neighbours and I thought once that my water cattle was broken because I couldn't hear a thing while I was wearing the headset.It's pricy but for the BF price it was worth it.Haven't tried the built in alexa but it seems that my amazon recommendation result remained the same so far so perhaps there is no stalking going on. fingers crossed.

Xbox user - works perfectly
I was looking for a mic that had the following:* mute toggle by raising the boom mic* no fancy lights with extra cables* short wire to connect to controllerThis headset works for all my requirements. It's okay as far as comfort ability. You tend not to notice it after wearing it for a while.I wish headphones would allow a way to hear outside with another switch to cancel the noise cancellation. For example, if the mic is pushed downward, then it mutes it from the game but turns it up for the outside so you can hear your wife screaming at you instead of having to remove the headphone and yell "WHAT?!?!"

Lightweight, long battery life and nice sound qual
I have had this ear peice for about two months now. Overall, I really like it.Out of the box the battery lasted for several days. Although I am not on the phone for more than 5 minutes at a time, I am listening to media for hours at a time. With that I only have to charge it every couple days and it charges very quickly. 5 stars for battery life.I bought it because I would be working at a convention all week and needed both my hands, but still needed to take calls. It worked great. I gave it a 5 star for sound because the audio on my end was always amazing. I never had trouble hearing my calls/media. I did only give it a 4 star for noise cancellation, because sometimes the other person will complain about background noise or that they can't hear me. Not all cases have been the fault of the headset though.The headset is very light and most of the time I forget I am wearing it. My only complaint is that after wearing it for a few hours my ear starts to hurt and I have to take a break.I did have one connecting issue when it would not reconnect to my phone. This has only happened once though and it was very weird.In summary, a great headset, just wish it were a little more comfortable for my ear.

So far so good -
Mostly enjoying these headphones so far, but truthfully, my standard from which I"m finally moving up from are the standard earbuds most cell phones come with (which, btw, I'm usually impressed with in terms of their sound). The earbuds aren't the most comfortable, however, which was one motivating factor to stepping up to headphones.So...sound quality, these are definitely a step up and seem more than adequate for my needs (they feel much stronger in their bass capabilities, eg), and comfort wise . . . . so far so good. More time wearing them will be telling

Good sound, easy to pair, waterproof
These are an absolute steal of a deal at $51.The sound is really good. The bass is good and not crackly. They effectively cancel outside noise (I can't hear my husband yapping at me at all when they're in and on!)I love the case they come in. Just plug the case in, and the ear buds charge while remaining safely inside. They stay charged for hours, long enough for me to spend an entire 8 - 10 hour day cleaning and gardening.They paired really easily to my Samsung Galaxy S9. My husband had no issues pairing to his phone either. I can go all over my house and yard and leave my phone inside and my music plays without interruption. A click of the right earbud and I can skip forward a song. A click of the left and I'm scrolling back a song or pausing. Very user friendly!These ear buds are very comfortable, the part that goes over the ear is quite soft. I love wearing these at the gym - I usually forget I'm wearing them!I accidentally tested the waterproofness of these ear buds - I forgot them in a pocket and put them through the washing machine. I was devastated...until I turned them on and they played like nothing had ever happened. My husband has been wearing these ear buds in the hot tub ever since.My husband loves the black over-ear portion on these ear buds, it's neutral and not blatantly obvious or in your face. I personally like the bright, sassy pink version!I feel like these ear buds are a great value at $51. Good sound, comfortable, easy to use, waterproof... I can't find anything to complain about with these ear buds.Update: been using these ear buds for two years now and they still work perfectly, even though they've been dropped in the hot tub more times than I can count. Still my favorite ear buds!

Comparing with a previous Akaso V50 Pro and GoPro
The media could not be loaded.
V50 Elite vs V50 Pro* One of the biggest thing for me is that it's finally micro-USB. Not mini-usb as V50 Pro. Would be nice to have USB-C but at least i have to bring 2 cables to each trip now, not 3* It has 4K60fps now but that fps does not allow image stabilization* Power button in front. That a good thing for me as i can't confuse it now when wearing gloves.vs GoPro 7 (i have rented a GoPro 7 in the past for a trip so have experience using it)* Still requires a case to be water proof. This can be a good thing when wearing motorcycle gloves. It was very hard for me to locate buttons on goPro 7 in the gloves* One of my biggest annoyances with Akaso is that the sound to start/stop video shooting is the same. When the camera is mounted on the helmet there is no way to be 100% sure if i started shooting or stopped. Also no sound when you turn the camera off* Akaso comes with a remote control which means the total expense is a quater of what GoPro would cost.I still think it's an amazing price and worth the sacrifice of GoPro camera if you only need it once or twice a year. As for me I am not sure if it's worth keeping it as Akaso V50 Pro was pretty good.
