RadioShack Live Sound Wireless Bluetooth Earbuds with Noise Cancellation, IPX5 Waterproof (Black)

Interestingly they smell reminiscent of patchouli when you open them. If you are not a fan of the scent... do not worry, it does not last long. By the time I took them out of the plastic it had dissipated.If you're looking for them to have a large distance between the color of the dark blue and black, you will be disappointed. It's a very subtle difference, which will likely be missed in a lot of lighting. I have a reference photo with a black case behind the ear buds to show this.The lid is translucent, and only the right one has the light colored R on it.Although the box says they are waterproof, the booklet says not immerse "the battery" in water. As there are batteries in each piece, I imagine that means they're more water resistant, as in you can wear them when it's raining, rather than when you are swimming. Comes with a full battery. Writing is pretty small in the booklet.Unfortunately I had chosen them because I thought the "Live Sound" was equivalent to the "Live Listen" feature, which it is not. These are regular earbuds.I find them a bit uncomfortable in my ears, although they look to be the same shape design as some expensive brands. There are no covers you can pop on them. They say "connected" when you put them in your ears.The touch points are too easy to press, being something you touch every time you attempt to reposition them in your ears as they're on the body itself instead of the stems.Since they are too large for my ears, they don't quite sit right, but if I press them in as though they fit well, the sound quality is pretty good. Without them fitting well, they're a bit high pitched, but don't sound terrible.If you do not have small, oddly shaped ears, or if you've experienced the ones that are similar on the market and the shape and size work for you, I would say these are a decent alternative to the expensive versions. For me, however, they just won't work for the intended use or even my own personal use. In the end, I gave 3 stars due to the touch issue and discomfort for myself, along with the decrease in sound quality due to poor fit.

Love these headphones. They are comfortable enough to wear for hours. They have a great sound. I didn't read instructions before connecting them to my phone, so only one connected. Troubleshooting was easy and solved the problem on the first try. Calling is also convenient and the sound is clear and crisp on both ends. I also like the tap option to switch songs. The battery lasts for weeks. Very pleased with these.

I’ve regularly used noise-cancelling headphones and earbuds since I was a student, especially for flights, trains, etc., so I’m always looking out for new options. These earbuds looked promising, so I ordered them, but the results are mediocre.On the positive side, the earbuds are small, and so is the case. They’re easy to use and pairing is straightforward. The sound quality is also okay.There are, unfortunately, some negatives. The first is that I simply don’t find them to be very comfortable. I’m used to either earbuds with silicone tips of different sized that fit the ears well and provide a good seal, or bone-conduction for scenarios where attention to external sounds is necessary, and without noise cancelling. These, however, are simply plastic, and they don’t provide a seal that reduces external noise.As for noise cancelling, the product page and the box say the earbuds have noise cancelling, but I found nothing in the instruction booklet about how to turn it on or off, and if it was on, it made very little difference. As far as I’m concerned, if there is noise cancelling, it might as well not exist. Without good noise isolation via a tight seal, I’m not sure how noise cancelling could work well anyway.These earbuds are inexpensive, so the value seems okay, provided good noise cancelling isn’t required.Overall, I can’t recommend these earbuds for those who want good noise cancelling. They might be okay for those who simply want inexpensive earbuds of this style.

I've lost count how many wireless ear buds I've tried and can say that this style is not for me due to fitment issues. Unless I'm lying still listening to music or an audio book, these do not stay in place in my ears. This is not the fault of the design, I do believe that since all of us have different shaped ear lobes and canals, proper fitment is hit or miss.In regards to sound quality for music, these are on the low end based on others I've tried. The sound is very thin with very little bass, however I find these sound just fine for audio books. In regards to size, these are the smallest buds as well as charging case I've ever seen which is great for dropping them easily into your pocket when not in use.For the asking price, I think these are a very budget friendly pair that may suit your needs so long as you're not looking for a $100 sound

Great fit, sound is good. Bluetooth connection easy and doesn't drop (as of yet). Wish they were trackable but added stick on airtag to located. Case is on smaller size so easily misplaced. Fast charging.

I'm giving these 3 starts because they work and were easy to set up. My radio shack stuff in the past has been decent. These, are not. The sound quality is definitely sub-par. I think they are more like $15 head phones. I'd rather pay more for other ones than get these for $15 though.For a kid who needs something, they can be good. For someone who really wants to hear good music, not so much.

sound quality is mid.. i didnt pay close attention when i ordered and just ordered because i liked the previous over ear recent Radioshack offerings. this style* of earbud will not stay in your ear (at least for me) which makes them useless. basically have to hold in place with my fingers in order to test the sound.

Charge holds for hours and they work great! Would highly recommend
