" ... I'm very happy, now I can answer my phone/WhatsApp calls or music seamlessly!!! ... "
" ... The Mic quality is so good that my wife thought I was still using my old Bluetooth, the Plantronics legend, which was good, but this Otium is better, because not only do people hear me perfectly well, but I can also hear a caller much better, being that the sound is coming to both ears. ... "

" ... Durability and Quality - ... Quality - they are okay, they feel cheaply made, but for the money are not bad. ... "
" ... For the price it feels very durable and like it could last for a very long time. ... The soft rubberized finish on the case is also a nice touch and makes it feel more premium. ... "
" ... They snap into the case with magnets. ... Overall feels like an Apple product at 1/3 the cost. ... "
" ... The set includes a nice carrying case and many seperate inserts to change out the rubber pieces for comfort. ... "

" ... Good quality, these feel like they would really last for a good few years at the least. ... The case is also great quality with a nice feel to the soft outside. ... "
