Levin True Wireless Earbuds Bluetooth 5.0 Headphones - Earbuds Earphones, Deep Bass HiFi 3D Stereo Sound with 16H Playtime, Physical Noise Reduction, Portable Charging Case and Built-in Mic

My husband takes my AirPods to work and of course lost one of them. Since we needed something for him to use until we found the lost one, I ordered these.Wow! I’m so impressed. Personally I like them better than the AirPods. Here’s why:-there’s 3 different sizes for your ear!-they are compatible with all types of devices-they paired INSTANTLY!-they are inconspicuous, they’re smaller and blend in better-my favorite.... each earbud can be synced to a different device!!!I will update my review if I have any issues, but I really don’t expect I will!Every time I purchase something online, I always check the reviews. I count on others to help me choose the best option. My reviews are always my honest opinion and I try to include photos if possible.If my review has helped you in any way, please click the "helpful" button below so that I know!

The media could not be loaded.  I have had these for a few days now and done quite a bit of testing as I and wanted to write an honest thorough review.Overall Impression:First of all let me say that the sound on these is great. I listen to a lot of melodic/vocal music at work, the dynamic range on these was impressive, and the sound was clean/clear. I have other bluetooth headphones that are not this small and the sound was easily as good. The battery life is good for a normal days work and the headphones are comfortable to wear with 3 sets of cones for different sized ears. They pair up easily with my phone and do the job they were intended for. There are a couple of oddities though that I will detail later you should be aware of.Out of the box:I have attached a video of my "unboxing" these headphones. In the package are instructions which are not all that common for this type of item, and they are intelligible. There are 3 sets of the cones that go in your ear canal of different sizes to allow for maximum comfort for most users. There are the two earbuds with the medium cone attached and the charging "pill" shaped holder. There is a USB A to micros USB cable but no wall adapter.Charging/First Use:The earbuds arrived from what I could tell mostly drained. I connected the charging cable to the case and was pleasantly surprised that they magnetically “snap” into place to charge in the container. They took a little under an hour to fully charge the first time. There is no wall unit in the package so you will have to use a standard USB wall charger with USB plug or use a computer port to charge them up.To pair them for first use simply press the “button” with the logo on both and they both power on and enter pairing mode. This can be heard via a female voice in the earbuds. On the Bluetooth controls for your device scan and connect to the “H9 Pro” devices it finds. Pairing completed automatically and once done they were ready to use. The voice tells you when each side is connected, that they are both connected and even speaks independently out of each ear what side it is so you know they are in correctly.Second and subsequent uses the charging was right at 1 hour when plugged in to the wall. It was a bit longer on the container battery at 1 hour 15 minutes.The description says up to 16 hours of use on one charge. I did not find that to be the case. I got 4 hours 20 minutes on the initial “wall charge” then 3 hours 50 minutes on the recharge from the container only. When I put them in the container, to charge a second time the charger batter ran down after about 35 minutes. This yielded just under 2 hours of run time. Overall, I got just over 10 hours of play time which was sufficient for a day’s use but not 16 hours. I got the same results two days in a row with only slight variation in times.Daily, Real World Use Results:Once paired you simply have to remove them from the case to power them on and if they are paired with a device that is present they seem to connect to the last device used quickly and automatically and are ready to go.I found the controls easy to use. They are basic and there are two mods. You have a quick press and a double press. While listening to music a quick press pauses/restarts and a double press skips to the next chapter. To answer a call you single press to answer and hang up. A double press refuses the call.During my practical use/testing I found that I could use the controls with ease but since you have to basically press the button towards your ear I could see how someone might find that uncomfortable.The range was good. I got out to 22 feet from my phone as measured and found they stayed connected and worked. I went a different direction from line of site through an open doorway and a little ways in to the room and they started dropping out. In my office I was able to leave my phone on my desk and wander out a fairly good ways with no disconnects.Practical daily use for me would consist of turning them on and putting them in first thing. I found they ran for 4 hours 20 minutes. Easily up to lunch. I put them on the charger while gone to lunch and found them fully charged when I returned an hour later. I then put them in for the rest of the day. So for a daily use set at the office they will do nicely.Finally, to the Oddities/Issues:First, I noted when I covered either the left side or right while they were in my ears, the right side would cut out. I never had it happen unless I cupped my hand over the ear but it happened every time. Not a big deal, I do not normally do that I was checking for ambient sound getting in and noticed it. I found it odd but assumed it was a function of the earbuds and thought perhaps the left is the “master”.Secondly, and a bit of a bigger deal….. They may power on when done charging. While the case is plugged in, when the earbuds are charged they just stop charging and are ready to turn on when you remove them. However, if you charge them with the internal case battery, once they reach full charge they power on and seek out the last paired device and connect if it is in range. So essentially, while they are in your pocket they power on when fully charged and you don’t know it connected. You would have to either leave the case plugged in or remove them from the case/block the charging pins to keep them off. Ultimately, I took them out and powered them down with the button and put a piece of tissue over the contact points so they stayed off while in the case. There is a video of this phenomenon attached at the end of the unboxing video at 1:56.

Update: Customer service was willing to replace the headphones to resolve my initial issues. Amazing service deserves recognition. Changed 4 Stars to 5.Short review:- Sounds are good, simple charging and connection, great Bluetooth range, 3.5 hour battery life, and comfortable to wear.Range:- These work easily 20+ feet away – didn’t test them beyond that, but honestly that is plenty for me.Battery:- From dead to full, it takes 1.5 hours to charge. Just know that if one headphone dies, both of them turn off (if you are using both at the same time). I had the left one say “low battery” then after a few more seconds both turned off. In terms of continual use (played music non-stop - YouTube @ 50% volume), they last about 3.5 hoursPackaging:- It comes with the headphones, 3 earbud tips (small, medium, large), micro-USB charging cable (does not come with a wall charger – so you will either have to plug this into a computer or a USB dock to charge), charging case, and user manual.Use:- To Charge: simply put the headphones in the case it comes with, and it will attach magnetically. As long as there is power to the case (green light indicator on the back of the case – red means it’s charging), the headphones will light up RED indicating that it is charging.- To pair: If they are being charged, you simply take them out and they are in pairing mode. If they are not in the case then you must first turn on the headphones by pressing/holding the button for 3 seconds, then once on, they will be on “auto pairing mode”. Simply look for “H9” on your Bluetooth device. If you have paired it to your phone, for example, then you have to disconnect the Bluetooth before you are able to connect to another device. If not, it will automatically re-connect to your phone.Sound quality:- These are pretty nice in terms of sound. The bass is decent (not as deep/strong as some higher end headphones – tested with some heavy bass songs) but the treble/mids are good. I do own a Bose/Sennheiser headphones so of course these do not compare in terms of crisp/clear sounds they produce nor the nice deep bass, but these are by no means a cheap sounding headphone. They will be enjoyable for most people.Issues - the only reason I gave it 4 stars: (contacted them to see what they are willing to do: will change rating accordingly)- The left side seems to not pick up charging when I put them in the case – it’s a bit loose so if you move it, it will connect/disconnect very easily. I have to wiggle it in order for it to pick up the charge… it gets pretty annoying. This is a major issue as if you have this charging in the case and carry it around, the left side will not charge most of the time so you will have a dead headphone which causes both to turn off.- The sound for the right ear keeps going in and out, as if it is having connection issues… and it sounds like a popping noise every couple minutes or so (Bluetooth device is about 2 feet away, so its not the distance, used 2 devices with updated drivers, etc. – so the Bluetooth device is not the issue)If you found this review helpful – click that “Helpful” button 😊
