Do these block out noise?

No. The open-ear design sits outside the ear canal and has no noise cancellation, so you hear your surroundings. That suits running and commuting but not loud trains or gyms.

How long does the battery last?

About 5 hours at 100% volume and up to 6.5 hours at 50% volume. Standby is around 180 hours, and a full recharge takes about 120 minutes over USB-C.

Are they good for running?

Yes. They are sweatproof and stay aware of traffic, and the over-ear hook holds them in place. They are not waterproof for swimming.

Can I take calls with them?

Yes. They have an integrated microphone and Bluetooth 5.3, so you can take calls from a paired phone.

How far can I walk from my phone?

About 26 feet of wireless range. Walls and bodies cut that, so keep the phone nearby.

Do they work with any phone?

They pair over standard Bluetooth with smartphones and other Bluetooth devices, including iOS and Android.

About the iLive Open Ear True Wireless Earbuds

These are open-ear true wireless earbuds that hook over the ear and rest outside the ear canal, so you hear your music and your surroundings at once. A 16 mm driver delivers full stereo sound over Bluetooth 5.3, and the sweatproof build suits workouts and commutes. Battery life runs about 5 hours at full volume and up to 6.5 hours at half volume, with a 2-hour recharge over USB-C. Against in-ear rivals they trade noise isolation for comfort and awareness, and they lack active noise cancellation.
