TLDR: great pair of earbuds for phone calls and casual gaming. Great sound and good mic quality. Don't buy it to replace an over-the-ears headphone, they aren't a replacement for those. The sound quality of these earbuds is great. It doesn't compete with high-grade over-the-ear headphones, and it shouldn't. This is a different category. These earbuds provide great bass (for an earbud) and is well-balanced on the mids and lows. It fits well in the ears and the tips are quite comfortable. They feel a bit weird in the beginning but, once you get used to it, they keep the earbuds in place really well, without putting a lot of pressure in the ears. They don't “seal” inside your ears as some other earbuds, so using them in noise environments might require higher volume. I quite like this design option though. The microphone quality is ok. It won't trump a boom microphone for “serious” gaming or a"studio-grade" microphone for podcast, etc. But I have been using it for Zoom calls and for party-chat while gaming on my PS4 and it has worked great.
