The movements are also very very smooth like VERY SMOOTH
Recharging is fast

premium materials and has a beautiful finish
everything sounds great
Earset is both gorgeous and highly-functional
sound quality is as elegant as the physical design
perfect
smooth surfaces and gorgeous arrangement

industrial functioning focuses on form that adapts to your ear
The rubber itself feels beautiful against your skin
elegant design and premium sound
small
lightweight
and connect quickly
The articulating arm feels solid
made of beautiful aluminium
noise cancelling also works fantastically well
sound quality is awesome
noise cancelling mode is genuinely useful for indoor training

sound relatively thin
noticeably muffled
and lacking in detail
the buttons are relatively small and a bit hard to distinguish
The response throughout the range is a bit uneven
No cherry-picked units sent by brands
their cable is thin and a bit fragile
isolation introverts and hip-hop fans
these are not the true in-ear experience
blinking blue and then they should connect quickly
Earset also are not the best friends of glasses
the glasses were over the loop
a bit strange
not quite as adjustable as I'd like
lacks the clarity I desire
sounding a bit like listening from behind a woollen blanket
mildly tricky to discern buttons by touch alone
lack the rigidity which so often causes other people to feel pain in their outer ear
Self-Balancing Skateboards
wind noise is excessive in Transparency mode
not big fans on the controls placement on the cord
the size of each tip is intentionally kept large so you
The 90s are ingrained in our souls
earbud tips fit inside your ear canal
the earbud design is not to everyone's liking
are relatively big and heavy at 8g per bud
sound quality is not as good
no automatic pause when you remove one or both earphones
earphones have a decidely retro look
the earphones seem particularly susceptible to water-be careful wearing these in heavy rain
a lack of crispness to the overall sound
lack of high-mid presence less than ideal
The price is not cheap at about 300 euros
wide earpieces and the deliberately open construction are a matter of taste

In-Depth Review of the Bang & Olufsen Earset - Nerd Techy

Britney Spears reigned supreme and Bill Clinton led the United States with a clenched, liberal fist. It was a simpler time, rife with innocence and purity of heart. The 90s were also a time of transformative consumer electronic design. Rotary phones were all the rage and
