I would buy them again, no doubt. You pick between voice pass through, ambient aware or noise canceling. What are the downsides. I don?t know if these are genuine Reeboks, but if they are these are a cheaper version of this sneaker. This headset adapter accomplished so much so easily. Not professional quality, but stellar for the home mechanic. Since I?ve never had any waist beads before I can?t honestly say that the elastic that was used is cheap or not, but I?m definitely either going to make my own or purchase some the African shop the next time. I could not return the ear bud back to Amazon because I was out of town for 2 months. Easy to pair and they sound great and last pretty long on a single charge. Used for a 20? bike.
