I got these from Woot! Some time ago and I love them. Better sound than my Philips or Harmon/Kardon’s. No touch controls, but i can take out my earbud(s) during tune in commercials and wait them out rather than having them pause/resume like touch earbuds… I had some intermittent connection issues (probably from physical abuse from both my clumsiness and my cat, which they apparently can withstand), but remedied them with a factory reset… Going for sage this time… Woot! On!
Got a pair to replace my throwaway Skullcandy Sesh. Aptx support at this price point is basically gold.
The only reason this thing doesn’t cost $200+ is because it’s not designed to be stylish and it doesn’t have ANC. Otherwise sound quality is on par with Sony XM3 (but not quite as good as XM4).
Bought a pair and right side was doa. Left side works but sound quality is just ok. Nothing spectacular imo. On par with my cheap geekee set. $20-30 value imo. I don’t know where the $100 price tag comes from
Make sure you give them a full overnight charge for the first charge. That sometimes wakes up the other bud.
Yes I put them on the charger the day I got them and didn’t use them until the next day for work. Right side is doa. I still have them on the charger together but the right side doesn’t charge.
Thank you for the follow up I certainly do appreciate it. Unfortunately I tried that already also but no go. Thank you again for your diligence

Is anyone else having problems with the microphone NOT working at all? I have tried multiple devices (several Android phones, PC, laptop) and the microphone does not work on any of them. I’ve followed Yamaha’s full reset instructions, then re-paired with the devices. Still nothing.
The sound is pretty good on them and I wish I could get the microphone to work. Any hints from anyone would be appreciated, or I will have to return as Defective.
[edit] Yes. They are fully charged.
Thanks!
This headset might be Refurbished not NEW as stated and sold.
Yamaha TW-E3B headset shows up as Yamaha TW-E3B R in iOS, Yamaha app , laptop in other devices/places.
I believe the letter R, at the end, stands for Refurbished, I emailed Woot and waiting for the confirmation.
[MOD: These are new. See my post below]
Hi there. The “R” is for Right earbud, not refurbished. They 100% new, just a funny naming thing from Yamaha. Here it is in the manual:
Thank you for the clarification.
I appreciate your time taking to resolve this misunderstanding.
