    Mehhhh (buying a "brand name")
    I bought these because I was in the market for bluetooth headphones, just to listen to music, and talk to friends while playing some console games.I didn't do a whole lot of research going into my shop as I just needed a pair fairly quickly. I decided to try out beats by dre, and overall they are a decent mediocre brand. Not much more.Sound quality is generic or low at best. The button is hard to press when wearing the ear phones. They sometimes disconnect when I take them off and walk to the bathroom (Not sure if this a "battery safety" feature, or even my phone). And people told me the mic just sounds "ok"I also use them to bike ride which is when I bought the "wired ones" I felt a little safer in case they were to fall out. They come with a little rubber casing, 3 interchangeable ear pieces sizes, and a charging cable.They apparently retail for $199 (?????) I bought them for $79.99 and I think i've seen them as low as about $60.If you can get them around $60, I think I'm ok with that investment as long as they don't break.My last flaw would be the battery. It's suppose to be 12 hours (which sounds relatively low imo) and I'm not even quite sure it getting that match (even with a full charge). Also, there's a scaling for noise cancelling (Amazon) and these aren't advertise, so no they sit snug in your ear, but don't cancel like other ear pieces can.I should possibly give it a 2/5 after all these complaints, but mine are working decently, and I basically got what I wanted, just a little disappointed by the brand name and price tag.
