I was expecting more range but my experience has been actually less range than the XR500s. Overall a decent find but still not convinced the price point is competitive. My dad loved them, they were a tad on the small side for him but they definitely seem like they will stretch to each individual foot upon wear. Returning these and have reordered in an 11. I do not believe this is actual Gucci Flora Gorgeous Gardenia. Heres a video test and review. We are using to store work clothes, which are quite heavy. The battery life and comfort were disappointing. Due to working in a noisy factory I have the volume set at its highest, I get 2 full days before I charge them and even then it reports the battery level as medium so I would say that 20 hours at max volume is easily achievable. 5 (if it was an option might have been a better choice)They look and feel heavy duty.
