The product I never knew I needed (or existed). These are so cool!! I've not used them for snowboarding, but their application is so much more versatile than that!! My car was stolen, so I walk or bike pretty much everywhere when I'm by myself. These slip right into hats, or even into fuzzy headbands which is... amazing! My primary bike helmet already has Bluetooth, but sometimes I don't feel like fussing with it... so putting these into my headband, I can put the headband on & then put the basic helmet over it, or I can just throw the headband on while I'm walking. Either which way, it's great. Obviously, they do have to be removed to charge, but that's what I'd expect.
I wish I had known such a thing existed, but I'm happy to own these. I was previously using my air pods for walking, but I felt like... even if I'm not biking, I still want to be able to kind of hear what's going on around me... these work much nicer, I feel safer and more aware of traffic & other people which, where I live, is really important.
Easy to connect. No fuss. Great battery life for the way that I use them. Have not had them give out on me on any of my roundtrips thus far. I think the sound is wonderful. Haven't had any droppage issues with my phone unless the service drops but that has nothing to do with the headphones.
For my application, these are wonderful. And for my pleb ears, they sound great. I am not one to really recognize a big... what I am saying is, I am not a harsh critic about sound layers or whatever. Things sound good to me, or they do not sound good. Something is easy to use, or it's a pain & I won't use it. These sound good and are easy for me to use. I feel no need to try and upgrade - these are wonderful, and I'll continue using them for as long as they will work!
