Some people say yes. For me it is a no because the depth of my right ear is shallow, so I am unable to insert it more than what is necessary for the bud to keep still even when walking. It's not like as if the bud will drop out, it will not. It moves with the motion of walking to jogging i.e. up and down and I can feel it.

Thanks for your feedback! :)

I have noticed that my blue leds continue to flash despite having switched auto-off off. Anyone experienced the same?

Oh. Didn't realise that's how it works.

BTW, I feel like the treble of these are far too harsh. The high range seems to be quite a mess.

The flashing blue LEDs before you put them on shows you that the earbuds are searching for a device to connect.

Yup, it uses the proximity sensor to detect. You can try to eq down the right few bars in the equalizer to lower the treble energy.

Try changing to Priority on Sound Quality in the app. This uses AAC. The default is Priority on Stable Connection which uses SBC.

Thanks! will try this. Priortizing sound quality on my app doesnt switch it to aac though. Have tried to repair and stuff, but always goes back to sbc.

Challenger Jurong Point has a few units going for $299 as well. Saw a couple of black and gold units.

A quick question, is there quick device switching like Apple AirPods. I have an China TWS, I must manually disconnect the set from phone before I can connect from my iPad and vice versa. AirPods just need to go into the BT menu and click on the device and the connection will switch.
