Used these for about a year before accidentally putting them through the wash with some clothes. They actually still worked for a bit after that but the sound in the left speaker began cutting out after a few days. I ended up replacing them with Jaybird X3 Sport, which fit a little more soundly for working out. I do like the controls and the weight distribution on the Mee Audio X7 Plus's better than the Jaybird's though. All in all they are a good value for the price and while they won't blow you away, they do have decent sound and reasonable battery life.
