Review Text: No Frills - Minimalistic. These JVC Earbuds are no frill. They don't have ear wings or foam/rubber ear tips, no sound isolation or active noise cancellation, no mobile app and very limited documentation is supplied with the earbuds. What they do have is a minimalistic design that sits or basically hangs comfortably in my ears. The audio quality is surprisingly nice for earbuds in this price range. The bass isn't the strongest but the mids and highs sounded bright and clear. You can use these earbuds singularly or as a pair. Although the supplied documentation doesn't mention it anywhere I was able to use these for answering phone calls and the audio quality and microphone worked reasonably well. Also I found that I could access Siri by tapping and holding the left earbud until I heard beep. In the fine print of the supplied documentation there is a url listing where you can access the on-line user manual which has adequate instructions on phone call control and accessing a virtual assistant. When you remove the earbuds from the case the LED on the earbud flashes rapidly showing that they are in pairing mode. You then pair them using the Bluetooth settings on your mobile device. Once paired the LED flashes at a slower rate showing they are connected. They can only pair with a single device so you need to disconnect from one device before you connect to a new one. There is also voice indicators telling you when the earbuds are turned on/off, when they are ready to pair and when they are connected/disconnected. They have an IPX4 rating so its safe to use them for exercising. The buttons on each earbud are touch sensitive and are easy to engage. Each earbud has an LED to indicate that its charging when in the case. The case has LEDs to indicate the power level and a USB-C cable is included to charge the case. It takes about two hours to fully charge the earbuds and about three hours to charge the case. The earbuds should last about 7.5 hours per charge and the case should provide two additional full charges so you can get about 22 hours of use between having the recharge the case. Overall as inexpensive true wireless earbuds these performed well but the lack of features may limit their value to some users.
