I've had the sport version before and wanted to try this since I often have only one earbud in while gardening and the earbud that's out pulls on the other one. I was hoping the neck piece in these would prevent that, which it does. The earbuds themselves do not stay in very well and I have fairly small ears. I tried the smaller ear cushions but they just fell right out, the medium size is just a bit small, which almost never happens. Without the extra curve to help hold it in my ear conch they keep falling out. Battery life seems fine, audio quality is not as good since they don't seal in my ears. Not the worst pair I've had but probably wouldn't get them again
