Raycon Fitness Bluetooth True Wireless Earbuds With Built in Mic 54 Hours of Battery IPX 7 Waterproof and Charging Case With Talk, Text, and Play

After having the raycon fitness earbuds for 2 months, I believe they are good quality earphones for their price. The sound quality is great, comparable to that of airpods, and I like how you can change the sound profile to match your taste.The functions of the raycons are easy to use and easy to remember, so skipping songs and switching between awareness and noise cancelling mode is easy. The raycons have a fantastic battery life which far exceeds the playtime of the airpods, and the raycons have always stayed in my ears wherever I am, however they often fall out when I am sleeping but that is to be expected if you toss and turn in your sleep. The only issue I have with the raycons is the noise cancelling mode.

The raycons have a fantastic battery life which far exceeds the playtime of the airpods, and the raycons have always stayed in my ears wherever I am, however they often fall out when I am sleeping but that is to be expected if you toss and turn in your sleep. The only issue I have with the raycons is the noise cancelling mode. While it is effective in quieter environments such as at home when someone is hoovering in the other room, I have found that in louder environments, such as a dog groomers with loud dryers (I use this example as I have used them while working) they are not quite as effective, and I find myself turning the volume of my music up to the max to be able to hear. This is to be expected however, as they are a far more cost effective alternative to other more expensive earbuds. Overall, the Fitness Earbuds are suitable and excell in everyday environments such as at home, in the gym and on the street. I got the green earbuds, and the colour is beautiful, however I would like if raycon produced a larger variety of protective cases for the earbuds, as the current selection is not very diverse.TLDR: if you want these earbuds for everyday use, they are great quality, but noise cancelling only goes so far and there aren't any protective cases out there other than the two on the website. Would recommend for anyone looking for a cheaper alternative and honestly I would buy these over airpods.

My "love affair" with Raycon may be over

I have been a fan of Raycon's earbuds for about 6 years now, having owned 4 different pairs, usually upgrading when the proverbial "latest and greatest" earbuds are released. However, I've become increasingly frustrated and annoyed with Raycon's advertising strategies recently, and in particular, I find myself very disappointed with my recent purchase of "The Fitness In-Ear" earbuds, to such a degree that I wish I hadn't bought them at all.To explain: I have a pair of E55 Pro earbuds, an earlier make and model which I've thoroughly enjoyed since I bought them over a year ago - the sound quality is excellent and well worth the consistent challenge I had with getting them to stay in my ears. Recently, however, my E55 Pro earbuds have started to look very "worn", with ... MoreI have been a fan of Raycon's earbuds for about 6 years now, having owned 4 different pairs, usually upgrading when the proverbial "latest and greatest" earbuds are released.

Recently, however, my E55 Pro earbuds have started to look very "worn", with the colour flaking off of them in several places, something that's never happened with the two earlier sets I had owned, and given that they've never seen hard use of any kind, I started to wonder about the quality of the hardware and if Raycon's manufacturing standards had fallen. I was even starting to consider other earbuds on the market, but then I got an advertising e-mail for the latest release, the Fitness In-Ear ear-buds, which promised better fit and better sound, They certainly made it sound like they were a definite improvement on my E55 Pros...ao I took the bait and bought them, only to discover (to my ears anyway) that:- the sound is less dynamic with more treble and less bass, to such a degree that it actually seems to be a step backward in quality from the earlier pair I own, which had beautiful rich sound without any need to resort go equalizer adjustments. Along with the "volume" issue (below), this was a major disappointment.- I have exactly the same issue as before getting them to stay in my ears, since the fit hasn't been improved at all as far as I can tell. Unfortunately, as with earlier purchases, the "fitting guide" leaves a lot to be desired, because aside from a few diagrams, it really doesn't "guide" you on the best way to fit the earbuds at all. Raycon definitely needs to improve this guide so that their customers get the best fit they can achieve because in my experience, the fit is absolutely integral to getting the best sound quality.- the so-called "maximum volume" is much lower than with my earlier ear-buds, annoyingly so in fact, and when you DO reach it, there is now a vaguely irritated-sounding voice that admonishes you "Maximuim volume reached"...and unfortunately, whenever I've had to adjust the ear-buds in my ears because they're at risk of falling out, simply touching them causes that voice to repeat...several times...over and over if your fingers happen to contact the wrong surface. Suffice it to say that this is extremely irritating when working out, and is a major complaint I have about this latest model.- finally, Raycon needs to do something about the model numbers it assigns to their products. Every new generation seems to have a different name and/or numbering standard, making it difficult to know whether or not you're buying an improvement on a model you already own. For example, the E55 Pros were released AFTER the E100's, and with the latest series, model numbers seem to have disappeared. Some kind of metric-based indicator needs to be used, since it seems that relying solely on Raycon's description of purported improvements doesn't help...at least not with my recent purchase.In summary, if you're looking to upgrade from an earlier version with the latest Raycon releases, I'd save your money. I sure wish I had.
