Good sound and super price / performance
Good sound and active noise canceling for 60.- is hard to find. The noise canceling convinced and works perfectly with all devices that I have tested. With slight EQ tuning you get really a lot of sound quality for the price!
With the noise canceling turned on, you can hear slight background noise, but it is no longer noticeable once sound is played. Unfortunately, these headphones have the same problem as virtually all wired in-ear headphones, that the cables always pull slightly on the earpieces, and these thus fall out more easily than with wireless headphones.Pro
- Good sound
- Active noise canceling
- Plug & Play
- Independently replaceable tips & wings in 3 sizes each
Contra
- Slight background noise, only audible when no sound is playing
- Hold in the ears could be better
Damage
Very happy at first with these headphones, but after a few weeks of use the interchangeable earpieces keep falling out and I lose the connection to my phone 1-2 times a day when I'm on my bike.

good workmanship sounded mediocre
thren decent overall package for the price. The workmanship looks pretty durable to me has good buttons on the cable. they hold very well in the ears. am now not an expert for sound but as I feel that voices and high tones are not as clear as with other headphones but quite ok and with the equalizer a bit customizable.

With Asus ROG Phone II Top
The sound quality is wonderful. The bass could be stronger, but with a little fine-tuning in the equalizer no problem.
The ANC works very well with the Asus ROG Phone II.
The controls all work.
The missing case, however, is really a problem, but I could solve with an old Bose case.
Price / performance I find fully in order and that the earplugs or the inserts quickly dissolve I can not confirm hold good.
The USB-C is understandable due to ANC, but I would prefer trortdem AUX.
Clearly recommended.Pro

Sound ok, missing case
For me, a good example of how manufacturers first omit the jack port, only to then sell an overpriced Zubeörteil with USB-C.

Turns your handbag into a Bermuda triangle
Actually, I was really excited about these headphones because they finally have a sturdy cable.
However, these headphones turn your handbag or backpack into a portable Bermuda Triangle in no time. After a few uses, you'll never see the rubber plugs again.
Not only the earplugs fall out, but even the whole rubber part for the ear cup. For the rather proud price of over 50 francs, you should expect a little more here. As long as only the earplugs fall off, you can still replace them to some extent, but if the other component also makes the fly, the fun is definitely over - terrible!Pro
- good sound quality
- comfortable
- nice design
- robust cable
- encourages you to clean out your handbag regularly
Contra
- earplugs fall out all the time
- ... really constantly
- expensive
- not usable without earplugs
- tedious to get replacements
Excellent
Fits my ear perfectly, after searching through the 3 sizes of ear tips and 3 shapes of horns to find out which ones fit me best. The noise reduction works well and allows for listening at lower volumes... I recommend it.

Quite good in-ears with okay ANC
It's not that easy to find in-ear wired headphones with ANC for USB-C. The whole world is going wireless, after all. From that perspective, I'm just glad Samsung (and Digitec) have something to offer.
The ANC could be better, yes, but at least it works on average.Pro
- Good sound
- I like the design
- Active noise cancelling
- High quality cable
Contra
- ANC is average
- The rubber parts are a bit too easy to remove
Quality disappointing.
The rubber parts wear out quickly and lose themselves quickly when they are pulled out of pants / pocket. They are also not easy to order after, samsung brick and mortar shop - nope, online - nope.
The headphone crashes or plays nix very often(android), sticking it out and back in solves the problem but it just happens too often.
Microphone is not really good, you have to talk directly into it and hold.Pro
- good cable
Contra
- not reorderable rubber plugs
- crashed regularly(turn it off and on again)
- microphone
very good
Pro
- good sound
- Fits well in the ears
- I can gladly recommend

ANC only mediocre
I use the headphones when traveling by train, thereby driving noise is reduced, but the conversation of fellow passengers are only barely reduced.
Pro
- Good stereo sound
- good quality of handsfree talking on the phone
- Power supply through the smartphone
Contra
- mediocre ANC
- the price is too high
My first and last experience with ANC
For me personally, the ANC is nothing. Have rather normal headphones. Otherwise super.
Pro
- Sound
- Holds in the ears
- Control buttons

Recommendable and good price / performance ratio
If the headphones are adjusted correctly and sit well in the ear the ANC is really good!
Pro
- Strong ANC when the headphones fit correctly
- Nice design
- Do not need to be charged
- Stronger ANC than e.g. Sony wf-1000xm3
Good sound, nice port
