TREBLAB XR700

Finally! I’ve found a pair of Bluetooth wireless (ok yeah there’s a wire in between them, whatever) headphones that crank when I play music and have good call quality - like they can hear me and vice versa - without the other sounding like they are sinking into mud. I’ve literally been ordering,trying and sending back Bluetooth headphones if this and other styles for the last month and maybe more - and I was getting at the end of my rope.But I took one last shot at these babies and man am I glad they did. Right out of the box, they cranked on the music (Van Haley’s “Tattoo” and a few other rockers I tried to make sure I liked the headphones) and felt comfortable. And I love that the hooks aren’t weak, rubbery and flimsy (hear that Beats?) and can be adjusted to work with my ears. I made a test call and all was good on that front as well. I’m writing this review as I’m watching “Empire Strikes Back” on my iPad and there’s no lag on the dialogue and the battles are epically loud as they are supposed to be. No issues getting two devices to connect at the same time, so it’s nice to see someone offer and actually deliver on multipoint connectivity. And yeah, I’ve been lied to on that front way too many times. The noice cancellation/reduction seems great so far and I’m hoping the battery life will be as promised. But they came with an 80% charge out of the box so I’ll worry about that later. I really wanted a pair of “true wireless” head phones but NONE offer multipoint connection which for me is a must have. So I’ll get used to the wire because these are the headphones I’ve been looking for. And at a great price, so yes I paid for these and am getting nothing for posting my thoughts today. So well played, Treblab! Hoping these last, but I’ll certainly be watching for and considering purchase of future products by these folks!

12/21/20 UPDATE: Raising my original 3-star review to 4 stars!Not long after posting my original review (see below) I was contacted by Marina, a Senior Customer Care Agent, and she was a pleasure to work with. I essentially restated to her what I'd written below, and she immediately offered to replace my defective pair of earbuds with a brand new pair. Her communications were clear and quick, she followed up when necessary, and I received the replacement earbuds soon after her initial contact with me. So far the replacements are working perfectly well, and they'll be my go-to pair for personal listening.I was very impressed with how well Marina treated me as a customer, and it was a reminder of how rare good customer service can be these days. I'm grateful to her for being to easy to work with!These earbuds are really a great value for the price, and knowing that they have the backing of quality customer service makes them a very strong contender in a crowded marketplace.__________________________________Original review:Decent sound and fit, just don’t expect them to last too long.When these headphones were working correctly I enjoyed them quite a bit; the ear loops kept them in place and the sound was decent enough for what they are. I also had very few connection problems over the Bluetooth, and initially I was pleased with my purchase. I only wore these while working on projects around the house or cleaning my car, so they were never put through any rigorous workouts or extremely sweaty activities. They were also never exposed to the elements, such as rain or prolonged sun exposure.It wasn’t until they were about four months old that they began acting up. Sometimes right after being fully charged they would connect to my phone and then immediately disconnect and appear to power down, and the only way I could get them to turn on again was to charge them for some additional time. On several occasions they would disconnect from my phone but the power indicator light would still be on, and while holding down the power button I was unable to turn them off or put them into discovery mode to reestablish a connection with my phone. Also, when I wasn’t able to turn them off no matter how long I held down the power button, I would just have to set them aside and let the battery drain, then recharge them again. These events did not happen constantly, but certainly often enough to become an inconvenience and make me wonder if they are even going to turn on again the next time I need them.Had I gotten at least a year’s worth of use out of these I wouldn’t have been so disappointed, and I most likely would’ve bought them again. However, since I’ve only had them for about five months and they’re already failing I will be looking to replace them with something from another brand.

Much better than my old headphones. They are Bluetooth, the sound is OK for this style of headphone. They fit well, there are a few different size inserts for your ear. Not bad for the price. They are a little bulky.

Ordered a pair, they shipped out the same day, and arrived two days ahead of schedule, which is good.Pretty comfortable. After a few hours of wearing them (if you're prone to forgetting you are wearing them) the ears sometimes start to ache, but hard to hold that against them since it takes hours for that to even happen. After finding the right fit, they fit securely on the ear and can take a lot of motion without falling off coming loose. And I can loop the little connector cable around the back of my neck, which I like for boxing and strength/conditioning workouts.Was a little sceptical because a lot of earbuds - even ones that claim "waterproof" and "made for sports" - have been shorted out when I'd sweat. These have held up to the sweat test.Great sound quality. Not quite the same clarity as you'll get from some other high-end pairs of sports headphones (e.g. Yurbuds), but these are also notably cheaper, wireless, and the difference in sound isn't that much ESPECIALLY when accounting for that price difference. Really good bass on these, but the bass isn't so excessive that it drowns out everything else. It doesn't come at the cost of clarity.Update: Just under two months since the replacement pair arrived. It does appear that some of my sweat has entered delicate areas and the left ear is now almost completely inaudible. Solid pair for the most part; however, this is a common issue I've had even in most earphones designated "sport" earphones, and these were no exception.
