" ... With how inexpensive the headphones are you will still be way ahead of the game with the case. ... "

" ... Love the fact that the battery level shows in iPhone SE and iPad 4 (Bluetooth 4.0) so I can see when it needs charge. ... "
" ... Like Bluetooth connecting, battery low, charging, etc. ... "
" ... Go ahead and get the Vectron hardcase (should be listed as what most people bought with them) with them, they will hold the headphones, charging wire, the extra audio plug (which you shouldn't need unless you are breaking your old school Walkman because this baby is Bluetooth) and I even put in my charging brick and phone charging wire inside. ...

" ... As my first cord free headphones, they are great. ... "
