Abstract: Wireless earbuds are a popular item among the countless brands in consumer technology. Phones are no longer selling in record-breaking fashion, and smartwatches have completely fallen flat. Now these companies are seeking to introduce new accessories for...
Small and light enough that you forget you're wearing them. Fully wireless with decent sound quality. Battery life hovers around 4 hours while streaming. Charging clamshell case provides an extra two charges. Includes a voice coach with fitness tracking a

Abstract: Far and away the question I get asked the most when I'm wearing a pair of AirPods is: do they stay in? It's a fair question, and for the answer is, yes, but probably not for everyone. I like the wireless earbuds quite a bit, but they suffer the same issue...
Automatically tracks running, Built-in coaching feature, 8GB of onboard storage, Relatively long battery life

Battery case is chunkier than AirPods' case, Heart rate sensor has been sacrificed, Local music storage of limited use

The short answer to this is Yes. If you are in the market for a new set of headphones and consider $199 a doable price to pay, then these are very good earphones. Gym and fitness-focused users will certainly get more out of them than other users but gener...
Battery life and charging process improved, Pairing and connections work well, Media transfers and updates now handled by phone
Still expensive for "secondary" headphones, Not everyone will value the fitness features, Battery life less than typical neckbud-style headphones, Sound quality isn't great
With the second generation IconX headphones, Samsung has fixed two of the biggest issues with the buds: they now last longer (and charge faster), and the software experience has improved markedly. That means you don't have anxiety about battery life every...
