- How good is the noise cancellation?
- It is entry-level ANC. It softens fans, traffic and office chatter but won't match premium buds on planes or trains.
- Is the 49-hour battery figure realistic?
- That is total playtime with the case, and it assumes ANC off at moderate volume. Expect noticeably less with ANC on.
- Can I wear them in the rain or at the gym?
- Yes. The IPX5 rating covers sweat and light rain, but don't submerge them or rinse them under a tap.
- Do they work with iPhones and Android phones?
- Yes. They pair over standard Bluetooth with either, though you lose any brand-specific app features on the other platform.
- What comes in the box?
- The earbuds, the charging case, a short USB charging cable and extra ear tips in different sizes.
- Are they good for calls?
- Fine indoors and in quiet streets. In wind or crowds, callers say your voice sounds muffled.
