I bought what appears to be the ācousinsā of these last week on Woot. Here is my early review of those, and a link to otherās comments. So far, Iāve been really happy with them. I see that these charge via USB - C, which is great! The buds I purchased (same price), are Micro USB, which I am not a fan of. Also, donāt depend on these to charge your phones!
"Iāve had three cases on chargers for @ 2hr, chargingā¦ 99%, red lights on ear buds off. send pair at 97%, no red lights on buds, third pair at 71%, ear buds red lights onā¦
Will update as evening progressesā¦
After fully charged, did as instructions noted, placed in ears, they each activated, and showed up in my M1 MacBook Air Bluetooth settings (one turned off when I touched it a second time, but came on again when touched. Successfully paired.
Sound from both buds.
Slight lag when watching YouTube videoā¦ but the sound is good!"
Note, others have noted that the Micro USB version of these that I linked, appear not to immediately light up as charging for quite some time on first charge, possibly hours!
Iām in for there of these.
Mine also came with microUSB charging and not USB-C. Ugh. But they arrived with 85% charge, paired perfectly and the controls work fine. Sound quality is pretty meh, but listenable for sure. Canāt beat them for the price for a pair of āi donāt care what happens to them earbudsā.
Mine are not USB C and I am very disappointed. Initial charging and pairing was a real PITA. They sound whatever, which is fine if they were USB-C.

These are not at all as advertised. I guess woot doesnāt care to validate anything about products anymore before putting a listing up, even on their main ādeal of the dayā slots?
- Micro USB, with bad offsets, not USB-C.
- Playtime is about 2 hours, max, not 5.
- No user manual, or QR code. No usage guide to be found.
- Iāve had dollar store headsets with better sound quality.
- Touch surface constantly misregisters. Canāt put them in, out, or adjust them without it flinging the audio all over the place. But if you try to use them skip, or answer, or what not? Almost never works.
They came with such a low charge that it took over 4 minutes plugged in before the LED display came on, very dimly. It then sat at 0% for a solid 15 minutes, and took over 8 hours to charge to 100%. That means they 100% self-discharged sitting on a shelf. Bad design, and really bad for the batteries. I got 2 hours of play before they cut out, then case recharge took over an hour and sucked 60% out. So you get a recharge and a half at best. (Oh, hey, thatās 5 hours? OR really 2+2+1, with an hour between each use.)
If Iād paid more than a few dollars, Iād be returning them. As it is, itās not worth the hassle. Theyāll due as a junk pair to throw in a to-go bag, or use at the gym, not caring if they get wet and self-destruct eventually.
Iāll likely be avoiding woot for a while after this. If Iām going to gamble throwing money at possibly junk items, there are far better sites. Looking now I see this exact model on some of those sites, for half the price, with lots of 2-star reviews.
Hi there. This is inventory from Amazon. Unfortunately, we donāt have eyes on the products so we have to go by whatās on Amazon.
If youāre unhappy with them, reach out to customer service as noted above.
Do you know if this can connect to 2 devices at the same time?
Not possible, At least not simultaneously.
I got these on a whim to go with some other stuff I bought that day. These are a disappointment. The product description, as others here have noted, is not on par what we received. Itās a shame, because they are actually very comfortable to wear ā as long s you arenāt listening to anything.
