A Good Buy for the Money
I used these for the first time at my gym yesterday. I noticed that the earbuds did not fit correctly; they were too big to fit correctly inside my ear and floated just outside my ear opening. For this reason the sound was not very good and to hear any bass what so ever I had to push them with my hand against my ear. This action defeats the purpose of wireless blue tooth -- my wired earbuds fit inside my ear and provide wonderful sound but I have to worry about the wire. I also noticed these earbuds do not alert me that I have a text message as the wired headset does.On the good side, I like that the charging cord is like my cell phone cord with a USB end and that there is a light that alerts when they are fully charged. I will continue to use them at the gym and I will try changing out the rubber earbud to see if I can get a better fit. These are still a good buy the money.

Connectivity issues
I originally ordered these for running but quickly discovered they bounce against my earrings with every step! The side with the control is also heavier than the other side causing them to become unbalanced. So I designated them for work instead but discovered they lost connection when in any pocket other than a hoodie pocket.I really wanted to love these headphones and if you are carrying your phone or just leaving your phone on a counter or something while you listen they might be great. They just don't work for me and have been collecting dust while my corded headphones get all of the love.

Easy to pair with my Nexus 4
I have been using them for my commutes on the bus. The different size ear bud tips allowed me to adjust the fit to isolate outside noises and help keep them in my ear while i am out and about. The stabilizers seem to help keep the ear buds in. The optional ear hooks are not the right fit for my ears, but so far i haven't needed them. Easy to pair with my Nexus 4. The sound is clear and the bass is solid. I haven't tried using them until the battery dies, so I cannot determine if the battery life is as stated. I also discovered that you can use these headphones as they are charging (not recommended, but you can do it).Only issues I am encountering:Left ear bud tends get pulled when I turn my head.I always end up rewinding a song or skipping the song whenever i needed to adjust the volume of the headphone.Music cuts out here and there while my phone is in my pants pocket (I believe this is normal regardless of bluetooth headphones I use)I got these for just under $30, not to shabby for tuning out the world while walking around / commuting on mass transit.P.S. I would not get these for jogging/running

Do not work for using when excercising
I bought these to use for when I was walking the dogs or walking on the treadmill. Even with the sport ear hooks they jostle about until they fall off or are too far from my eardrums to be useful. The picture of them is somewhat deceiving in that they are much more bulkier in reality. I think it may b due to the weight of the power/volume controller that they do not stay put. They work ok for hands free phone calls when driving and you are not moving your head that much. As soon as you have some motion of your head, as with some type of exercise, they become irritating and all you r doing then is constantly repositioning them to get better sound of the media u r trying to listen to. I liked that they were wireless and thought they would b great but that was not the case.

Good quality at the price point
I’ve been using the Jarv NMotion for about a month. It’s my first set of bluetooth earbuds, and I decided to go bluetooth after having had several earbud sets fail at the plug end from the fatigue of handling them in and out of pockets so often. I paid about $30 for it; list price is $70. I haven’t researched to find out if bluetooth is quite expensive to add to a device, or if I’d consider this product’s list price over-priced for the acoustic quality. I’m very satisfied with the $30 price point.A note on the acoustic quality - it’s slightly better than my previous earbuds, which were $20 Monsters (and not bluetooth). I tend toward audiophile quality for music (I’ve spend $140+ for earbuds in the past). If music was my primary use then I probably wouldn’t be delighted with these.Pros:* Good quality for podcasts and phone calls, though slightly lacking in the mid-range. In fact sometimes I use them at home for phone calls because they are easier to listen to than the iPhone speakers are. The sound is warmer and less tinny.* The tangle-free ribbon-cord is awesome.* Includes a good set of accessories to ensure it works for your needs, such as sports ear hooks.* Holds a charge for a decent amount of time. I haven’t measured it to see if it holds up to the claim that it provides 5 hours per charge, but I'm satisfied with the results.* Much less hassle to deal with the short cord compared to conventional earbuds.Cons:* None of the 3 sizes of ear tips were big enough for my ears, and the first few days were pretty disappointing as I couldn’t achieve noise isolation. I replaced them with some tips from a previous set and they work just fine, now.* Volume controls are a bit tricky. The previous/next track controls perform double duty as the volume controls. Press and release to go to the next track, press and hold to increase/decrease the volume. Once the volume control kicks in, it adjusts pretty quickly, so I find that I often skip a track when my intent is to adjust the volume just slightly. I usually just pull my phone out of my pocked to adjust the volume.* Answering the phone doesn’t seem to work as documented (for the iPhone at least), which say that you can either press the phone button on the bud’s control or use the phone’s control for answering. I’ve found that if I try to answer with the phone’s control then it switches to the phones speaker.* Sometimes it appears they struggle to keep the bluetooth connection. They will cut in and out, sounding like a CD player that is skipping. Usually I just have to reboot them to fix it, but sometimes I have to reboot both the earbuds and my bluetooth service on my phone.

Try another brand. These headphones do not last!!!!!
I ordered these thinking they were a great deal and should work fine. After 2 uses they stopped connecting to my phone and then did not turn on anymore so I returned them for a replacement. The replacement pair worked for about 3 uses. There was intermittent connection to my device, now the charging light stays on all the time and I cannot shut them off, and they will not pair with my device anymore. I am returning them for a refund (Thanks Amazon for your great customer service). Customers beware - These headphones are a waste of money.

Carefull
Received April 5th and they stopped working April 22... :( This was a second pair to replace the first pair that stopped working after 8 months. I like them because I find them comfortable but it's not logical to be replacing them every 6 months on average.

Good earphones for the price.
Good earphones. I didn't give it a 5 mainly for two reasons:1. Wearing it with the wire behind your neck makes them fit uncomfortable in the ears. Would make the earphones fall out of my ears.2. The mic doesn't seem to work at all times. It works only during calls. I tried recording using the simple sound recorder app on the phone but it would not recognize the input. It only recognized the input from the native phone microphone. And even in calls the microphone appears to be relatively softer.Overall, if listening to music is your goal then go for it. They're very light, easy to carry around and the tangle free design really helps.

good headphones
Like the headphones, good sound. Only issue I have is I find they don't quite fit right. Otherwise very happy with them.
