ACOUS Design Purest Earbuds Covers Anti-Slip Sport Covers Compatible with Apple EarPods and AirPods (White)

This a great product! Exactly what I was looking for with my apple EarPods. I have three sets of EarPods. A lighting, USB-C and an AUX old school connector. I like my EarPods but they always felt loose compared to my Airpods. At the gym they did not block out any outside sounds when watching tv or listening to music. These little wonders do the job perfectly. They are not completely noise canceling but they fit well and don't feel like they will fall out. Easy to put on once I followed the detailed instructions. I did have issue with one of the covers out of the 6 I purchased split. I contacted customer service. I sent a picture of the split cover and I quickly received a refund. I turned around and purchased a replacement set. Very happy with my purchase and customer service this company offers to it's customers

I was excited to finally get some deep rich sound without having to hold the earpods/airpods into the proper position to get that level of richness in my music.After using them for an hour. My ears started getting aches from the hard plastic insert the covers have inside to "channel" the music into your ear.I took out the insert to see if it helped with the aches. Just a small amount. But the sound quality was still the same. I examined the plastic insert and noticed it doesn't really fit snuggly onto the earpods/airpods speaker end. The silicone edge where the little insert sits in front us provides a seal between the two but doesn't enhance the sound experience. I positioned it many times back and forth, pulling and adjusting it, but none really improved the sound other than helping me keep them in my ears and playing at a steady sound quality. (Not as deep a bass that I'm used to without any cover)I just wasn't impressed by the covers. The only thing that i was happy about was the fact they wouldn't fall out of my ear anymore, but discomfort after an hour of listening to music doesn't make for a "better experience"Most of the people reviewing these will hype them up cause they probably only use them from minutes at a time.I draw, and do design work, so listening to music while working is a must to keep the flow of creativity coming.This is my personal opinion and description of my first couple days using them after they arrived. Which totals about 7-8 hours of continuous use each day for a total of 16 hours of use.Don't let my opinion affect your choice to try them yourself. Just know, keep the packaging tear free to possibly return them after being disappointed.

I didn't really like these covers during the first few days of use. However, after I did a few things, I came to like them a lot. My take...Ear comfort:These are made specifically for people who want to channel the audio into the ear canal. If you don't like covers that have a nub that sticks into the ear canal, you won't like these, so don't buy them. My wife is one of those people, and she thinks these are very uncomfortable. Also, when they arrive, the tips have a little piece of plastic inside them (presumably to hold the shape?). These add to the discomfort, so I carefully dislodged them and threw them in the trash. The nubs that anchor the covers into the ear canal now have more "give", and they're more comfortable.Sound:Before ordering, I read in other reviews that the higher frequencies are dulled a bit. Well, it's true. Some sharpness is lost on that end of the spectrum, but it's not terrible. Without covers at all, my AirPods would only have respectable bass response if I made sure there was a good seal between the AirPods and my ear canal. With any movement, this seal would inevitably become broken, and the bass would practically disappear. These covers fix that problem. Due to the nub that goes into the ear canal, the seal stays intact, and as a result, the bass and midrange sounds stay rich.Putting them on & taking them off:When I first received them, they were stiff, which made it hard to put them on my AirPods. Since you can't charge your AirPods with them on, I wasn't looking forward to repeatedly taking them off and then struggling to put them back on. However, over the next few days, I was delighted to discover that they loosen up considerably. In fact, when I got a second set of them, the first thing I did was patiently apply the stiff covers to my AirPods, and then I didn't take them off for two or three days. After that, they were stretched enough for me to be able to remove and put back on very quickly. If you aren't willing to be without your AirPods while the covers loosen up (since you would have to take them off to charge the AirPods once the batteries drain), then they will also loosen up over the next week as you repeatedly put them on and take them off, but the process will be a little frustrating in the meantime.Customer service:I ended up with a tear on the back side of one of my covers. Since I hadn't noticed it right away, I'm honestly not certain if it was there when I received them or if I accidentally tore them while trying to apply them to my AirPods while they were still stiff (this is why I urge patience while applying them during the break-in period). I reached out to ACOUS customer service, and after sending them a picture of the tear that they requested, they had no problem sending me a new set. So, I can say that the company is responsive and stands behind the product.Bottom line: 4.5/5 stars (since you can't do half stars, I gave them the bump-up). I knocked off a little for the higher frequencies being muted somewhat. I gave this feedback to the company. They acknowledged that this was a challenge while trying to create a product that channels the audio directly into the ear canal. For me, the trade-off to preserve a good bass response is worth it. I hope at some point their testing will reveal a way to upgrade the design to bring back some of the higher frequencies. If they do, I'll be in line to buy them. I hope this was helpful to some.
