It's not exactly a fair comparison, but I'm an avid Apple user, and can't remember my tech world before my Apple AirPods. Spoiled by their tiny form factor, I was initially put off by the size of these larger earbuds. They also didn't fit nearly as easily into my pocket as the case is several times the size of my AirPods case. And, although I would never recommend sleeping in earbuds, these were too large to have in my ears while sleeping.Beyond that though, the battery life is absolutely incredible. The sound was far better than I expected. The USB-C charging was a welcome addition, as I wasn't forced to add an additional adaptor to my life. And, despite being a professional audio engineer, these are now my "go to" earbuds for listening to music AND answering voice calls.They stay firmly in my ears without that ache that can happen when I'm wearing headphones for too long. I can exercise or bike and no longer worry about them slipping out. Coupled with a price that was easy on my wallet - these are a clear winner when compared to any other earbuds I've tried.It's only been a couple of months, but I'm impressed enough with this product to purchase a second pair.

Well quite a surprise I was looking for some low cost Bluetooth ear buds to see if I could get on with them as I was so fed up with snagging my wired earphones. I saw these and thought that the price was good and the description and reviews were reasonable so I bought them and thought that if didn’t get on with them then no big loss and if I did like them I could perhaps buy some more expensive ones.I ordered and thanks to Prime they arrived the same day, I opened the box and they looked a good as they do in the photos. Instructions were simple and clear I charged up and was set to use. I got on with them really well they are comfortable easy to use with simple input press action on either side depending on what function you want. They are comfortable and secure even wearing glasses and most important of all they stay put and give me good quality sound be it from my phone or my Bluetooth mP3 player. Great for working around the house and out on my bike. So my conclusion is; I have them they are what I want and I can’t see why I would need to get any more expensive ones so I am very happy with my purchase.

I would highly recommend these. After my pair was stolen, I purchased an "upgrade" for myself, the beats studio wireless. While those are more noise canceling, there are not any other benefits. The solo threes are noise canceling to a degree, as they fit moreso tightly on my head (petite small female), but they do not go over my ear the way the studio beats do. The battery life on the wireless solo 3 is phenomenal, I usually have to charge them about once a week and I'm always wearing them. While the studio wireless only hold a 8-hour or so charge in my experience. The sound quality is amazing, only slightly less amazing than the studio beats. If you aren't familiar with beats products, I would compare these to a top of the line Bose product. My studio wireless beats charging port quit working after I had them for a year, and Apple wanted $150 to fix them. I was able to find a local repairman to do them for a lot cheaper, and they are still kicking. I have not had any functionality problems with the solo 3 wireless. Mine are a few years old, I did replace the pads by choice, cuz they were disgusting from working out in them. These are the best bang for your buck when it comes to beats headphones I think.

I live on the beach in Hawaii. I love riding my beach cruiser in the mornings. However, tourists seem to be more interested in their cellphones than the waterfalls or other beautiful aspects of the Island. I have almost been mowed down several times by these zombies looking at cellphones and not the road or most of all a bicycle! I was wearing in-ear speaker pods and could not hear anything but my music. NOW with this excellent sounding speaker system (which sounds better than my earbuds), I can HEAR the traffic, and I'm much safer as a result!Attention: While riding the bike, this would slowly spin around leaving one speaker under my chin and the other up by my left cortex. I needed to regularly adjust it back to under both ears. I was a bit disappointed at first until I thought of putting my tee-shirt on OVER the monster. IT WORKED! Now (under my teeshirt) it stays in place and I dont look as silly. Another not so good issue is that a hard pounding head banger song came on and the audio limiter chip kicked in. And out. And in. And out, over and over... Thanks be it to Betty Crocker this only happenned to one song. Ace Of Base, Nirvana, Beatles White Album, Gwen Stefani, Black Eyed Peas, and and all else had no problems. Just awesome music! Not good for Skydiving or Scuba...

I have the USB-A at home and USB-C at the office - same headset, different adapters.I bought my home one at the beginning of the plague when working from home became my mainstay (I was using my wireless Voyager headset before, for my 2x week working from home). I could not be happier with the purchase.I had a couple calls at the office, I took, passing through. I used my old headset; the foam was disintegrating, it wasn't comfortable, there were no on-wire controls (mute/volume), and: it just wasn't comfortable. I ordered the C3225 (USB-C) for the office and haven't looked back, there, either.The sound quality for voice calls is great. The ability to use the headset (proper) anywhere that supports the 2-lead audio plug (left/right/mic) is nice. It's comfortable for wearing for endless conference calls, where you sit pondering the meaning of life. It won't fall off when you slam your head against a desk, multiple times a day. You can mute yourself, easily, before cursing out the endless stream of incompetency on the other end (remember, webcams should be covered as well, folks!).Overall, another stupendous Plantronics product. I recommend this headset every chance I get.

I ordered these because I want a backup set of wireless earbuds. In my experience, wireless earbuds work just fine for a long time then suddenly they’ll start constantly losing the connection. I use them primarily to connect to an ancient iPod touch so maybe that’s part of the problem.These connected very easily. They’re light, comfortable, and the over-ear pieces didn’t bother my ears. For my purposes, they stay in place well. I can’t say if they stay on when I work out because I don’t. But I do move around and haven’t had a problem.I haven’t tested to see if they’re waterproof yet and I won’t, at least not intentionally. This might be important to you if you’re wearing them while sweating. I also haven’t tested play time. I don’t use them that long ordinarily and always charge them at night.The sound quality is ok. Not great. It’s fine for audiobooks which is what I use them for. For music, they’re a little tinny and bright sounding. One annoying thing is the distortion in the voice prompts when I turn them on.I need to mention the case. It has a zipper and feels sturdy. Love the case! For the price point, these are decent earbuds but won’t please an audiophile.

Update 2/16/22:Took off 1 star for the annoying auto shutoff "feature". There's no way to disable it. Otherwise it would be perfect for office/Teams calls use. Mic volume is not as loud as a dedicated headset with a boom mic but speech is still understandable. It's still more comfortable than wearing a headset all day.To get around the auto shutoff, I have music or some other white noise playing in the background just so something is going through it.Original 7/25/21 review:Speakers sound great. Bass is decent for small speakers. Ambient soundwise, people around me can still hear it but it's more tolerable than if I were to play sound through my phone speakers.Buttons can be finicky and you have to press hard but I guess it's good thing rather than being too sensitive. However, it can make it difficult to skip tracks or go back and I end up raising or lowering the volume.Bluetooth connectivity works well. Haven't experienced any drops and I can go into another room and it will remain connected.Calls on it are okay. Callers can understand me but they say i don't sound as loud and it's a little muffled. However I don't plan on making calls on it anyway and have the phone function disconnected.Overall, very happy with purchase.

I started using this a few months into the pandemic, when I started breaking out badly from wearing masks and face shields at work. Immediate improvement not just in the beyond-normal acne, but it got rid of even my routine, hormonal acne. I rarely break out now! I apply 1-2 times/day with a reusable bamboo round. A 4 oz bottle lasts a few months. I’m on my 4th bottle in 18 months. Worth every penny.I was a teenager the last time I used BHA, and it was only known as salicylic acid, and only sold in a gel form (Clean & Clear), which would pill up when I would apply lotion over it. The liquid form Paula’s Choice uses doesn’t irritate my skin and does not pill or leave any residue.All that said, even though I’ve had a great outcome, my friend, who had her thyroid gland removed and started breaking out badly after her surgery, did not see any benefit from using this product. She used the whole bottle and did not repurchase. I was surprised it didn’t work for her, but she has a health condition I don’t have, which may explain the difference. So if your acne is related to acquired hypothyroidism, this may not work wonders.
