fast wireless TalkWorks QI charger review

The charger works as expected and my Nokia 9 charges quickly. This charger is QI certified. I cannot speak to its durability yet, as it is a recent purchase.

One thing to watch out for is to try to center the (rectangular) phone face up on the (square) charger surface. If properly centered, the charge level shows up briefly mid-screen and you know charging has started. I sometimes need to slide the phone around a bit to make sure. Nothing major.

The best wireless charger I've gotten so far!

And I've got a bunch of these!

So how does the TalkWorks Qi Certified Wireless Charging Pad compare to the many others we have in our house? Let's say this - we fight over who gets to use that one! It is the best, by FAR, of all of our wireless chargers. Why? First, it is larger than the others - larger in a good way. It is just big enough that the phone fits comfortably on the charging pad and you don't have to search for the sweet spot. It seems to start charging as soon as you set the phone down. With many of my other chargers, you have to move the phone around to find the perfect spot to charge - this one just works.

Second, it is "case" capable or "case enabled." That means that unless you have a stupid thick case on it, then it will still charge through the case. Some of our other chargers are persnickety about charging the phone if there is a case on the phone. This one just works.

Third, it comes with everything you need to get started. Most of our other phone charging pads only come with the pad, some have the pad and a cord. This one comes with the pad, cord and charging wart so you know that the entire package is made to work together. It just works.

Ultimately that is the summary of this phone charging pad from Talkworks - IT JUST WORKS! I would recommend this to anyone looking for a great phone charging pad and I would give this ten stars if I could - it is the best pad I own ouf of a dozen - maybe more.

Below is a little about me and my household to explain my experience with these chargers:

When My wife and I purchased the iPhone 8+ a year and a half ago when we found out that our wireless provider was offering a buy one get one free package. It was six months later that I realized that Apple had finally decided to catch up to Android with the iPhone 8 and that these phones were Qi Wireless charging enabled! LOL

When I found that out, I immediately got a couple of the wireless chargers. We love them! We have them all over our house so that wherever we are, we can set our phones down and have them charging when they are idle - that allows us to keep them charged most of the day without running out. We use our phones a LOT. My wife LIVES on her phone and without wireless chargers, she would be transported back to the 1970's and her iPhone would have a stretchy cord connected to the wall somewhere, not for the connection to the phone line, but for connection to power.

The TalkWorks Qi Certified Wireless Charging Pad is simply better than the many others we have in our house! It is the best, by FAR, of all of our wireless chargers

Dash DFAF455GBBK01 Deluxe Electric Air Fryer + Oven Cooker with Temperature Control, Non Stick Fry Basket, Recipe Guide + Auto Shut Off Feature, 6qt, Black

Healthy way to “fry”

I’ve been using a smaller version but was finding it wasn’t big enough for things I wanted to make. The size on this was perfect. I cooked a whole chicken and it came out beautiful. It took about 1 hour to cook and was tender. Easy to use, easy to clean and shipping was fast.

Absolutely love being able to have crispy foods quickly

I decided to jump on the air fryer bandwagon and try this one out. I was happy with the size of the basket to hold enough food to feed my family of 4. I started with an easy recipe of just quartered red potatoes. They cooked quickly and were crispy. My 5 year old who often complains about the food I make said I should open a restaurant. That's high praise from her. I've cooked chicken and fish from frozen in the air fryer as well as reheated pizza for a crispy crust. The fryer is super easy to clean, which is important to me. I highly recommend it as long as you have the storage space for it as it is a fairly large appliance.

Great recipes included

I have owned the Dash compact air fryer for a while. I love its small size but I did have some large air fryer envy. When I saw that Dash came out with a 6 quart, I went for it. I love being able to cook a whole chicken! The recipes that come along with this air fryer are amazing. The carnitas are a must try and have permanently upgraded my taco Tuesdays. I have heard about many air fryers having problems with peeling and smoking. I have not experienced these problems with either of my Dash air fryers.

Excellent air fryer

I have used this air fryer several times and everything I have made comes out perfect. Fully cooked on the inside and crispy on the outside. It comes apart easily and clean up is a snap.

Oster BLSTAJ-CB Blender 6-Cup Glass Jar - Black Lid

Perfect fit for my OSTER blender

I have a Oster model 6843 12-speed all metal drive blender. Worked great until the glass pitcher was accidently dropped on tile and broke. Glad to find a replacement for the pitcher without having to buy a whole new blender. This replacement part only comes with the Glass pitcher, lid and filler cap.

You need the blade,gasket and the base to have a working blender. We simply removed those pieces from our broken one and saved them until the new glass pitcher came. If you are missing those parts they are available seperately as well.

My only complaint is that amazon didnt pkg it very well and luckily mine did not come damaged. the glass pitcher came to us in the manuf. pkg which is simply a thin store shelve box with a cardboard insert to keep the pitcher from moving around and then amazon boxed it in a slightly larger box (less than 1 inch of space on each side of the manuf. box) with one of those bubble wrap air pillows but it left 3 entire sides of the box unprotected. Honestly suprised it wasnt damaged in shipping

Great replacement for the one you just shattered!

I knocked my original glass blender jar off the counter and it shattered into a million pieces, so I needed an replacement. I researched replacement glass jars on Oster's website and spoke with one of their customer service people to figure out which one would work with my blender, since they had a ton of different ones on their site. Turns out, it was slightly cheaper to order it on Amazon, since ordering it directly from Oster was $10 plus about $8 of shipping (for a total of $18). So, I ordered this replacement from Amazon for a few bucks less.

At first I was bummed that it wasn't the exact same shape as the original (which had flat sides) since I liked the look of the original, but after using this replacement, I'm actually liking it more than the original for a few reasons:

-The rounded shape makes it MUCH easier to scrape the sides to get out what was blended (so easy now to get out the last bits of blended tomato or smoothie!)
-I'm finding the rounded shape is actually a bit easier to clean with the sponge. Not sure if this is legitimate or I'm imagining that it's easier.
-This replacement jar (which is 6 cups) is actually slightly bigger than the original (which was 5 cups). That little bit of extra makes makes such a big difference to me.
-This replacement has a MUCH BETTER spout, so it's easy to pour without making a mess.
Keep in mind, it DOESN'T come with anything at the base - no blade, rubber rings, or plastic base that screws into the blender. Make sure you keep those parts! It DOES come with a plastic lid and the clear plastic dome at the top.

Overall, I think $16 is a little much for what it is, but it definitely beats paying $70 to rebuy the whole blender. UPDATE: Looks like the price dropped quite a bit since I bought mine.

If you found this review helpful, please let me know! And if you have any questions, I'm happy to help.

Toshiba EM925A5A-BS Microwave Oven with Sound On/Off ECO Mode and LED Lighting, 0.9 Cu.ft, Black Stainless

Elegant looking microwave that does a great job

I was "secretly" glad our old microwave finally gave out. I hated that thing with its awkward and noisy pus- button door release that made such a loud sound opening and closing. Which brings me to the other thing I hated--the beeping when cooking was done. We'd stand there, ready to hit the Stop button, just to avoid the beeping. One of the main reasons I chose this microwave is you can program it NOT TO BEEP. This is the greatest option EVER! Also, with the handled door, one can quietly close and open without disturbing anyone. The important thing, if you're wondering how the oven actually works, it does cook up everything quite nicely. This oven is on the small size of the spectrum of sizes, but not too small. We needed to have it fit a built-in shelf so we're bound by the space requirement, but the power level is very good for the size. I absolutely love this microwave!

Love both the look and operation

[UPDATE at end] I've owned many microwaves, was the first person I know to buy one, in 1974. People use to come over to try it, a modern marvel. And wonder of wonders, this is the only other microwave since that original one (a Gaffers and Sattler) that explains in the manual how to make creative use of aluminum foil in the microwave! I didn't know you could still do that. The purchase was worth it for that knowledge alone (I was an old hand at using foil- on the wings of chickens, with rolls, bread, things that cook too quickly compared to other parts of the meal). No scrimping on the packaging- it arrived in a heavy-weight box within a box and encased in styrofoam, so no chance of dents or damage, yet easy to unpack.

Aesthetically I LOVE this. I fancy it has a chunky retro mid-century look to it, like what a food replicator looked like on the original Enterprise. I don't have the best eyesight and the buttons are big and clearly labeled- can see them without my glasses. Ditto with the digital display, bright green; the light inside is bright too. The handle is thick and solid in your hand, pleases me every time I use it (haven't had a microwave in years with an actual handle, SO much better, feels decisive, purposeful, kinesthetically pleasing). The operation is intuitive (for the most part) and basic, well-thought-out, satisfying. I'm coming from a fancy Panasonic unit with inverter technology that I was in love with, but as is apparently common with Panasonic microwaves it died after a few months. It's a trade-off- I much prefer the look and operation of this (for example, the Panasonic had no number pad) but it takes slightly longer to cook, but that's okay.

Being able to turn the sound off is a blessing. I'm living in my vintage travel trailer at the moment and have two little finches that don't need to be awakened at all hours (they answer the beeps with chirps). Relatedly the door makes a rather loud but not unpleasant thunk when closed normally, but it can also be closed gently, more quietly when desired- after a week it's already second nature to me. The microwave when running is quieter than most. Also wanted to say I nearly sent this back because the power level button didn't work. What an idiot- when all else fails read the manual. You change the power level AFTER you enter the cooking time.

So far I love this thing, and like the many other Toshiba products I've owned over the years, hope it lasts a good long time. (After my experience with the short-lived Panasonic I got the three-year warranty- a bargain at $6.) But if it dies or malfunctions I'll update this review. Thank-you Toshiba!

UPDATE: I had a senior moment and forgot to put the frozen lasagna in the microwave. I manually set it for seven minutes and pressed start. I was doing other things in the kitchen and about five minutes in the microwave went dead. No display, no power, nothing. It was HOT inside. Oh great, I blew a fuse or WORSE, I thought. I couldn't find the owner's manual. I tried unplugging it, plugging it back in, nothing. No re-set button on the back. SO disgusted with myself. Thought I was going to have to have it serviced or replaced. About 15 minutes later it came back to life, after it cooled off, good as new. Thank-you Toshiba!!

Great microwave! Heats stuff fast

Great microwave! Heats stuff fast. Others love that you can turn the beep off. Personally I need the beeping because I tend to wander off. I love that you can turn the idle power off. The only thing that I'm not crazy about is that you have to pull the handle to open the door, rather than a button to push that releases and pops the door open. The latch is secure, so when you pull it would not be hard for it to slide enough to drop off the edge of the counter. But that's minor compared to everything else, including the price.

TOZO T10 Bluetooth 5.0 Wireless Earbuds with 【Wireless Charging Case】 IPX8 Waterproof TWS Stereo Headphones in-Ear Built-in Mic Headset Premium Sound with Deep Bass for Sport [Gray]

Best Bang For Your Buck!

I absolutely love these earbuds! I was looking at Samsung's offering since I just upgraded to a Note 9. However, the Tozo earbuds had much better reviews and are $100 cheaper.

In the box:
Very good packaging

2 wireless earbuds clearly labeled for left and right.

1 charging case

1 pair of the smaller rubber covers and a pair of larger ones in addition to the ones included on the earbuds themselves.

A 1 year extended warranty card (must activate within 14 days of receipt) - easy process using the provided car code!

Detailed instructions

The earbuds pair quickly and easily to each other and to my Note 9 with voice prompts letting you know when each is paired. You also get a voice notification for incoming calls and when hanging up a call.

The buttons are pretty tactile, however you do have to give them a bit of force. This does help in mitigating erroneous button presses though.

The earbuds fit my ears out of the box but come with various sizes so you can get the perfect fit for you.

I haven't done a complete workout with these but I have worn them for hours during moderate activity and they haven't fallen out of my ears.

The battery life is amazing! I've used these for hours and they only got down to 80%. The case conveniently charges the earbuds when they're not in use and I've only had to charge the case once after a few days use.

The case itself is a little on the large side but I'll take that trade off for the amazing battery life it delivers! Although I can comfortably carry these in my pocket (I'm 6'3 and have deep Jean pockets), most might opt to carry these in a gym or laptop bag.

The sound quality is decent given the price with lots of bass although I usually prefer a "flat" signal. However, I use the PI music app from the Play store which has a decent EQ so I just flatten out the signal there. You'll definitely want to be careful not to listen to these with the volume cranked all the way up as they can get pretty loud.

The range is top notch! I think I read these are supposed to work up to 10 meters away from the paired device but I've gone further without any drop in reception.

These earbuds are rated IPX8 which means they can get wet but you don't want to submerge them in water. I've had these on in the rain with no issues.

Overall, you won't be disappointed with your purchase! These are high quality wireless earbuds! Enjoy your music and your savings!

ITS A MIRACLE!!

I'm one of the very, very few people who cannot use the apple air pods. No matter how hard I try, they fall out of my ear in less than a minute. I thought I would try a different brand, and when I put these in my ear, they fell out within seconds. I was about to give up, pack up the box, and send it back, but I decided to check out the instruction manual in case i was doing something wrong. I’m so happy I did. Turns out there were 4 sizes of plastic ear caps included with the earbuds. On my third try, the second smallest ones, I felt how i imagine Cinderella felt when she tried on the glass slipper. They were perfect and no matter how much I jumped up and down or shook my head, they stayed in place!
The quality of sound is impeccable, nice highs and lows, with a decent amount of bass. Once I found the right match, the fit was extremely comfortable.
I love these headphones, they have already changed my life for the better!

Cuisinart DFP-14BCNY 14-Cup Food Processor, Brushed Stainless Steel - Silver

Efficient & Enjoyable Food Processor

 I just received this machine as a gift about a week ago. It is has already been put to good use in my home kitchen! Today alone I diced mushrooms & onions, shredded cheese, and sliced strawberries, apples, & tomatoes. They were all done beautifully without damaging the food in process. This gave perfectly shredded cheese, beautifully sliced fruits & vegetables, and the mushrooms & onions were diced just right for my homemade "cream of soup". I am surprised at the speed at which it processes and still has smooth clean cuts without mashing the food. It is also very quiet!

The bowl was large enough to hold the whole 2 lb block of shredded cheese. The 2 openings, large & small, were both used today. Having the smaller feed tube, I was able to stack my strawberries in and keep them from tumbling around which helped provide more uniform slices. Having the larger, I was able to cut my 2 lb block of cheese into 4ths and have the entire block shredded in no time. The larger would not hold my whole tomato set in right side up, but I was able to turn my tomatoes sideways and get beautiful slices anyway.

I did take some pictures/video along the way to show processes and comparisons on the different blade thicknesses. I did purchase some extra discs alongside my gift that included the thin slicing blade as well as the thick. I used the shredding disc & slicing disc that came with the machine for the cheese & tomatoes.

I am finding this machine easy to handle and a joy to have in my kitchen. It's easy to operate. I now have a feel for how to insert & change the discs, so it really has been an simple yet very efficient machine. I highly recommend

America's Test Kitchen recommends this model (DFP-14BCNY) and I have to say I agree with them!

Solid product that works very well. Easy to clean - I just pop everything (except the blades which are quick and easy to hand wash) in my dishwasher and I'm set. Very small gap between the blade and the bowl which makes for a more even dice/chop.
Make sure you get the newer model (DFP-14BCNY) with the improved blade. If you get the older model contact Cuisinart for a free replacement. Overall, this is an outstanding product that outperforms others I have used in the past. America's Test Kitchen recommends this model and I have to say I agree with them!

Way better than expected!

We cook a LOT and had bought the Cuisinart custom prep 11 at Costco several years ago and liked it. Recently the pusher broke and the bowl was cracked. Of course trying to find parts for an old machine is hard. I was pretty irritated that they stop making parts when the motor is quality. America Test Kitchen TV show recommended this food processor so after a couple of months we broke down and bought the DFP and we're so impressed! When the blade is inside the bowl it's so close to the edge of the bowl when spinning that the food get processed well, and the 14 cup bowl is great! I decided to buy an extra bowl and pusher allowing for future breakage and decided to hand wash them so they will last longer but unfortunately it's not fun to clean all the small areas in the pusher. My only complaint is that the cord is too short, they could have added 2 or 3 more inches. We use it on our island and I have to have it very close to the edge of the counter to plug it in.

AmazonBasics Over-Ear Bluetooth Wireless Headset with Micro-USB and 3.5 Audio Cable - Black

Not really studio monitors

Disclosure: I was an audio professional for many years and have numerous local and regional radio and TV credits, and did both location and studio recording.

These inexpensive headphones purport to be 'studio monitor' headphones and I have evaluated them as such. My gold standard is the Sony MDR-V6, which 30 years ago sold for almost four times the price; today's Sony professional headphones, the best in the business, sell for the expected higher prices.

A studio headphone is definitely NOT a headphone made for 'listening' per se. Most consumer headphones for listening have frequency responses tailored to the intended audience. For instance the Beats headphones put out a strong bass (as do many others). Studio headphones must tell the truth; that is, they must have a flat, wide range response with no colorations, no phase distortions, and no intentional emphases. The engineer needs to hear exactly what's going on, exactly as it sounds.

Studio headphones also need to be comfortable. If you're sitting offstage recording three hours of opera, the headphones had better not pinch, give headaches, cause sweating, or otherwise irritate and detract attention from a demanding job requiring constant focus.

The Amazon studio headphones fail, as studio headphones, on most every count.

The bass, while tight and solid, is over-emphasized. The lower mids are murky and the frequency response rolls off so there is no transparency and the barest of high end response. This in turn makes the sound stage narrow and constricted. Fortunately there is no phasiness. But overall the sound is unacceptably inaccurate, and not even especially pleasant, over a wide variety of source material.

Comfort is not good, either. The headphones are way too tight and give an instant headache. The top bar is not padded on the underside and feels like a hard object pressing into the top of your head, which is exactly what it is. THe headphones are also hot. I couldn't imagine using these over the course of a multi-hour performance. I will say that the acoustic isolation is excellent.

The headphones are supplied with a coiled cord that extends nicely, and a quarter inch adapter for the eighth inch plug.

But for the price, would you really expect to get good studio monitor headphones? I certainly wouldn't. And in fact, you don't. These might not be bad for listening to some music on a casual basis, but if you use them in a professional setting, you're risking your reputation and maybe your career.

Affordable Headphones With Fair Audio

I really like these headphones for the sound and quality build. But, two things that bother
me. 1. I am using these headphones for field
news coverage. I think that these phones should be enhanced for heavy field use (stronger head adjustment/ear cushions-muffs). 2. vinyl carrying case for protection!

Apple iPad Air 2, 64 GB, Space Gray, (Renewed)

It’s a hit or miss

I had previously purchased a refurbished iPad and it looked as good as new, no scratches, no dents, everything ran great. I decided to purchase another iPad for my daughter and it had a deep scratch on the screen, I returned it, then placed a second order. The second iPad had deep scratches and sticker residue on the back but the front screen seemed ok. It’s a hit or miss. I don’t have time to be mailing the item back and forth. You’re rolling the dice with these guys. They’re SELLER refurbished quality, definitely not factory refurbished quality which would probably hold a higher standard.

So happy! Took a chance and won!

Ok I took a chance despite the mixed reviews. We won!. The iPad Air 2 arrived today in perfect condition and not a single scratch. It looks like it has never been used. It came with a 95% charged battery. Set up was automatic as it told us to put it next to an iPhone and it automatically signed in and transferred all contacts and signed on to our iTunes account. It took less than 5 minutes. All we had to do was download a few apps from the cloud. Very excited to finally have an iPad to go with the phone. I will update if anything goes wrong. Thanks for the opportunity to get a great product at a fantastic price. I may order another one. I bought this for my husband to use for work. Now I want one. The screen on this thing is so sharp. I haven’t weighed in on battery life yet. Only had it for one day.

iPad works well! Very pleased

I bought this iPad looking for something that has space for tons of games and pictures as well as lighter to carry to my college classes instead of my big, old and heavy laptop. I have had the tablet for just about a week now and so far, so very good! Like everyone has the right to be, I was very hesitant on buying a 200 dollar iPad online but I just simply wanted the best deal. I didn’t want to have to pay a lot of money for something I could have possibly got for cheaper. I waited a while and did a lot of research and reading comments before I bought this one. The comments here are very split when it comes to buying an iPad on here. I talked it over with my boyfriend and he thought it was a good idea so I went with his gut and I’m pretty happy I did. The iPad works very nicely! Powered on well as soon as I got it. Now I will say, the packaging was not apple packaging and the charger base is not apple as well. The iPad also charges a bit slow, but! The battery life lasts a very long time and the iPad came in good condition. You can tell by the back that it’s refurbished or this is something the previous owner did but it doesn’t bother me a bit. I’ve bought a case and don’t plan on taking it off anytime soon! Buying an iPad on here might just be a hit or miss type of thing, if you decide to buy one I hope yours works just as well as mine does!

Samsung Chromebook 3, 11.6in, 4GB RAM, 16GB eMMC, Chromebook

So pleased, does all I needed and more!

I am so glad that I went ahead an bought this. I needed a small portable computer that I could take to a number of places to work on ongoing projects. I wanted something that would be smaller, lightweight, have an attached keyboard, functioning USB ports and enough memory to be able to use multiple internet pages at the same time while utilizing OneDrive to create documents. I bought this hoping for the best, I mean given the price tag I was almost certain that I would be handing it off to my sister for my little nephew to play games on, but nope! Mine all mine!!! I waited to review until I had used in all of the capacities that I required and it has done all that I needed and then some! Super lightweight and handy, I can have it on my leg while balancing papers to review on theother while waiting for appointments. It quickly accesses the internet and has worked wonderfully in tandem with OneDrive and other internet functions. I could not be happier. BTW because of the extra USB ports (3) I was able to attach a remote mouse and it works seamlessly also. Did I saw that I am Happy? 

I've really enjoyed this device

As an academic and a Google Head, I've really enjoyed this device. It is lightweight, does not have a fan under the bottom, and doesn't generate a lot of heat. I've been impressed with the battery life and the charging rate. The processor isn't the most powerful in the world, so complicated software like TD Ameritrade's Trade Architect tends to stall. If you areworking on the web, answering emails, and creating Google Docs, it works flawlessly

Pinch me

Let's skip the part where we acknowledge the fact that Chromebooks, in general, are incredibly awesome...fast, reliable, can do basically everything you need to do unless you're a recording engineer or you work for Dreamworks...or if you insist on using one of the few remaining proprietary software programs that hasn't migrated online yet (hint: it's 2019...stop fighting it). Anyway, let's skip that part because you already know this and that's why you're looking at Chromebooks.

We are now a 6-Chromebook family. Everyone has one now. 4 of them are Samsungs. I just purchased my 2nd of these little Samsung dudes, both from this seller, factory refurbs. Here's why you should pull the trigger on this right now:

1. It may be "refurb", but they look brand new. And because of Chromebooks "powerwash" feature, they are fully wiped just like a brand new from-the-factory job.

2. There's no such thing as a 100% never-fail piece of electronic equipment. So you want to get yours from a place that will have your back if it's not right. The first one we ordered had a problem with the keyboard. Keys would stick. I called the number on the box, got a native English-speaking dude from Connecticut, and he happily overnighted another one to me immediately, along with a prepaid return tag for the faulty one. The replacement worked perfectly and has been working for many months so far.

3. As a laptop, this one is pretty great. It's fast, the screen is bright and clear, it's super light, the battery lasts forever, the build quality is high...and it just FEELS like a nice laptop.

4. DID YOU SEE THE PRICE??

There are down sides to everything. It's not as cool as MY Samsung Chromebook (the touch-screen Pro). But I could buy 3-4 of these for the cost of one of mine. I'm sure that if you want to burst this little laptop's bubble, you can open a million windows and see if it can edit video and print and browse cat videos at the same time. But don't be that guy. You wanna get silly with your laptop, buy a Chromebook Pro like mine. I'm still waiting for that one to bog down after 2.5 years of daily use and lots (and lots and lots) of international travel. For normal people who use web apps and email and edit video on WeVideo and knock out accounting on QBO and...for the love of all things holy, consider getting over the hump and using Google Office (and thank me in 6 months) this laptop is all you probably need. If it'll make you feel better, buy two of them and pretend it costs twice as much. Then you'll have a backup in case you forget and go swimming with the first one.

A great set of wireless headphones

Great product, great price

 I want to purchase a earphone like this but the leading brand is too expensive and is something that I cannot afford. I am so glad that I found this one, it works the same as the popular brand for a quarter of the price. Sound quality is great and connecting it to my device only took 3seconds. Battery life, I cant complain about as it lasts for about 5 days before charging it. It is very handy and I carry it with me all the time. I highly recommend it to those people that needs an 4 for a cheaper price.                           

Very impressed!

These buds come in packaging reminiscent of iPhone boxes, very nice! First of all, the product looks great and feels great. The quality of the polymers is just like the I-Pen, top notch. The charging pod is small and can fit into any pocket. I also like that one can use just one earpiece instead of two. My husband and I can watch a movie when we travel and each use one ear piece, very cool! And even with one, the sound is good.
I also like that one can see at a glance how much the buds have been charged: one blink means 25%, two means 50%, three equals 75 and four blinks means charging is complete. I used it for a phone call right away, and that, too, went very well in conjunction with Siri. My husband has a little trouble putting the bud into his ear and make it stay, but I think that is rather du to the fact that he is not used to wearing ear buds at all.
So all in all, I am happy with this product. If anything comes up after longer use and experience with them, I’ll update!
If you found my review helpful, please, let me know. Thanks!
