CleerAudio Ally Plus II True Wireless Noise Canceling Earbuds, 33 Hours of Playtime, IPX4 Sweat Resistant, Crystal Clear Voice with Echo and Noise Canceling Mic, for iPhone & Android, Midnight Blue

First of all, I work in a manufacturing facility, I have tried 3 other earbuds before I happened across the cleer brand. After reading a bit about the products and company I decided to purchase yet another pair of earbuds. I work around heavy machinery, air tools, impact wrenches and robots. These are far and away the best at canceling all the background noise out. The only thing they struggle with is hissing air hoses. Also the ambient adjustability through the app allows you to clearly hear and interact with employees, and listen to the machines when needed with just a couple touches to the earbud. I'm so happy I found these! The sound quality is great as well! I'm a Cleer customer. Keep up the great work, I'll recommend you to anyone.

The media could not be loaded. Overall good, but disappointing. I started having issues with the touch feature after 3 months. Unfortunately one of them came apart and I’m assuming that was the cause of the issues. I purchased in October and used almost daily.

Excellent natural sound. Long battery life. Eight pairs of ear cushions supplied. Better instructions on selecting best fit would be useful.

Pros: I love the design for these. They are sleek and cool. They might be a LITTLE too flat but I love the concept. Overall they have good sound quality. The highs aren’t too screechy and the mids are pretty strong, right out of the box at least.Cons: unfortunately a lot more here. The first is the case, it’s weak and flimsy. And it looks like it too. The second is the earbuds don’t always connect to the case. Sometimes you have to work on adjusting the bud to fit right so it charges and disconnects from your phone. You also sometimes have to put it back in the case to get it to connect to your phone, as it doesn’t always turn on and connect after being taken out. Fourth, the app is lackluster. You have to connect your earbuds every time and what you can do in the app is limited. It’s also the only way you can activate ANC and ambient. Fifth. The bass is extremely weak. Not only that, but using the weak EQ in the app to boost the bass makes the mids and highs weaker, without touching higher frequencies. So once you get the bass right, the mids and highs aren’t good, and EQing up the mids and highs definitely lowers the sound quality for these. Overall with most settings the sound just felt super hollow. If you don’t like bass it should be just fine. If you do STAY AWAY. Sixth, there’s virtually no difference between the ANC and ambient (which they’re both fairly decent, not great but they’re okay) except one thing. When I turned on ANC, shortly after I had to adjust my right bud, and as soon as I touched it it screamed in my ear (like when a mic experiences feedback, which probably was the problem, but it was only the right earbud). Ambient and normal didn’t do this, only ANC.Overall these are fine. But there are way better earbuds out there within this price point that do pretty much everything better. I would not recommend these.

Earbuds sound good, only problem is I can’t use them much because one side constantly disconnects from my phone.I wrote the company regarding this issue requesting either a replacement pair and they never wrote back to me. Spend elsewhereUPDATED: I was eventually contacted and refunded

These earbuds have a very classy, unique design, and they sound great for a mid-range priced pair of earbuds. I test out a lot of different earbuds and headphones; if there's one type of item I'm most interested in, it's audio products. These were my first from the brand Cleer, and I've come away mostly impressed, and even better, hopeful for the future of these earbuds.The buds have a distinct round look with a small protrusion on the bottom front as the earbuds face outward, which seems to orient the mic towards your mouth for calls. My ears are average sized for an adult male, and the buds sit basically flush with my ears. The included tips (M) fit me perfectly, so I didn't change them out for either of the other options.The sound quality is very nice. It's a little on the warm, bassy side, which is good for most modern music, but it's pretty neutral overall and seems to reproduce music pretty faithfully. There's nothing bad I can say about the sound. They're maybe not quite as detailed and nuanced as my Sony over-the-ears, but they're also 1/3 the price and earbuds. They sound really good to me, so on that level, I'm happy with them.The features are where things are a bit more of a mixed bag. These advertise ANC, and they also have a pass-through mode to allow ambient sounds in. When I first got them, the ANC was laughably bad. I could literally discern no difference between ANC on and off except for the major frustration that ANC on would produce terrible wind interference when I wore these while exercising. The pass-through mode works pretty well in a static environment. If I'm working at home at my desk, I can use pass-through so I can hear if my wife or kid is calling out to me. If I'm out exercising, pass-through just means terrible wind interference, just like ANC.These have a dedicated smartphone app that allows you to turn on or off the ANC and pass-through mode as well as make some EQ changes. The EQ changes are helpful as you can tweak the already good sound to fit your preferences. It's frustrating that the app has to be used to modify ANC. It's also frustrating that ANC is on by default. You can change the touch settings to be able to use an earbud to turn ANC/pass-through on or off, but that sacrifices other touch functionality (skipping tracks). So more options for touch controls would be a big benefit. Luckily, the touch functionality is neither overly sensitive nor non-functional. It does what you set it to do in the app.The last paragraphs probably sounds fairly negative, and to be clear, there are some problems with the features and usability on these, but there has already been one firmware update to the earbuds (delivered again through the app - don't buy these if you won't install the app on your smartphone), and I've noticed improved ANC. It's still not class-leading (and probably still not even middle of the pack for this price point), but it's better than before. That gives me hope that further improvements may come. Hopefully they may also use future firmware updates to improve the touch functionality.Frustrations aside, these are great looking and sounding, so they're not a bad choice if you don't care that much about the ANC. If you want ANC in a similar price range with similarly good sound quality, consider trying the 1More ComfoBuds. Those have jaw-droppingly good ANC for the price. Again, if ANC isn't that important and you're willing to keep updating these via the app, you'll get nice and attractive headphones that offer more good than bad in my opinion.

The sound is amazing don’t get me wrong. But audio from certain apps sound lower. More more audio power.

Brand New item straight out of the box and totally defective. It doesn't charge and it doesn't matter how long you keep it plugged in. Here is the real kicker,... I ordered a replacement thinking it was probably a rare defect. The replacement had the same problem.
