For the price, this is really impressive
I took a gamble on this set, after seeing other reviews of the same earbuds with the larger battery case, and after weighing up all the various 'small bud' options without the spoilers and wings and stuff that come on them.My favourite earbuds for the past 3 years have been the Bragi Dash set, which has some incredible design, but it's expensive too, and they're now coming to the end of their life. So I wanted a replacement set, and buds that are small.Earin and similar companies have had my interest for a while, but the reviews always kept me away, and some of them have been the same buds for 3 years or more, with little to no updates/upgrades.Anyway, so far, this set is really impressive for the price. The buds are slightly larger than I expected, but I guess it'll be a couple of years before they get even smaller with decent battery life.The charging case is something similar to the Airpods case, possibly a fraction smaller, and is a smart case too. The moment you close the lid it has small LED lights that give you a battery update on the case and the buds (charging or not), which is really cool.The lid magnet is also really strong, so much so that the buds sometimes pull towards the lid, rather than going in their holes.Build quality of the buds feel like a mix between metal and glossy plastic, and feels solid and heavy enough to not feel cheap.One thing about the rear ends of the buds, the glossy plastic is REALLY smooth and feels a bit slippery, especially when pulling them from the case, where the magnets are really strong too. My fingers have slipped a few times trying to pull them out, so I'd caution to be VERY careful where you take these out, lest they fall from a train platform, down steps, from a bridge, etc.Also interesting on these, is the bud speaker face (usually covered by a mesh), is larger than other buds I've used, meaning it feels like I'm getting decent sound output as well. The sound quality so far is ever so slightly lacking in base (in dialogue, for instance), but the sound is really good (music sounds good) and you can get some strong kick in the volume too, which isn't always the case with small buds.Another thing I've also noticed, which I tend not to notice, is the stereo effect. It feels quite pronounced with these buds, which is an interesting change of pace from my other buds that feel more levelled out in both buds. I get that this is usually down to the mixing of a song or audio track, but it seems to really be noticeable in these buds.Sound isolation is pretty average for buds, depending on the tightness of the tips you use. Nothing extra or special there.Sadly, I have to admit I'm watching a series on my computer (from file playback, not streaming), and there's a bit of a delay with these buds - it's not enormous but enough to be annoying. However, I've played PUBG with them too, and the delay there is somewhat negligible, at least for me, but this is subjective.The box didn't come with instructions, so you have to revert back to this purchase page to find instructions for touch control, and they're not all in the same place either. The 'pictures gallery' of the product has some instructions, but doesn't mention anything about turning the buds on or off, or repairing them with a different device (like your computer instead of your phone, while your phone is there next to it).For power instructions, you have to scroll down the page into the big description setup, and it seems to me that to pair to a new device, you have to turn the buds off and on again. I might be wrong, I'm still figuring it out :)Another thing I will see with time alone, is how the touch controls are. It seems they need a bit more effort than just a tiny touch to activate, which I quite like.My expensive Bragi Dash set was so sensitive, that if you wore a scarf in the winter and it touched the buds it could pause your music or activate the activity tracker or something annoying, so I ended up always turning off touch control in the app.Having said that, these buds don't come with complicated functions like activity tracking or sport or anything, and no app, so it's quite nice that they just work.Haven't experienced any crazy drop outs in signal, it's possible they exist but so far I've not had any.Finally, battery life seems ok to me, but I have yet to use them long term to see how far I get on bud charge and case charge. I hope the product description is right!Overall, I'm happy. It's not a dirt cheap purchase, but cheaper than some of the higher end ones, and yet I feel like it's got a ton of value for the money.

I love these, sleek and discreet. The only downside is the are not very loud. Hard to not like these though.
