Sound quality is exceptional on these buds, I'm sold on hybrid dynamic and balanced armature set ups now, bass is deep, warm and un muddied, mids and treble are clear, crisp and bright without being wearing. Volume is ample for my ears and the equaliser settings make a difference, however the app equaliser is basic at best. Just 3 options - classic which is fairly flat, dynamic which opens out the sound a little and manual - the manual setting offers up 4 frequencies, each customisable and easy to choose, also an ability to scan in other peoples settings - however compared to the closest rival (soundcore liberty pro 3's ) the app is somewhat lacking. A firmware upgrade could easily sort this if Edifier made the effort.
Controls are also behind the rivals - only double and triple taps on offer so you are limited to 4 controls - I chose track forward, track back, pause and mode (anc/transparency) - this left no room for volume up and down - this also could be an easy firmware upgrade - come on Edifier !
Comfort - superb - I can barely feel them in - no complaints there. Also fine for sports/jogging etc - much like any earbuds this shape, they are fairly secure unless you are violently shaking your head ?!
ANC is also very good. As good as anything else I've tried with the exception of Sony who are in a whole other league - make sure you get a good fit on the earbud tips to ensure it works correctly. Transparency mode is one of the best I've heard.
Battery life is pretty much on a par with other rival buds, way behind the likes of cambridge audio but not far off Anker, Sony, Technics etc.
Connectivity is stable and set up was simple and quick.
Overall a very good set of earbuds which could be up there with the best with a few firmware and app upgrades.

Excellent buds, great sound
First off a note to say I fitted comply tips to these, and my experience is based on those tips fitted.These are very good TWS headphones, with only a couple of minor issues.Fit with the comply buds is excellent. They feel secure and isolate ambient found well.The charging case is a reasonable size, and I like the "Knight Rider"esque red led strip.Sounds quality is excellent, especially when I tested with LDAC and Amazon Music UltraHD tracks. Well balanced, with a decent bass umph. Perhaps not as detailed and revealing as some, bit very good. Soundstage pleasantly wide.Noise cancellation is good, not excellent, though I think some of this is down to the comply tips giving naturally good isolation.The pass through mode works well for train announcements etc.Slight annoyances and readons for not being 5*:Battery life ok. And the quick charge helps. Bit with LDAC and Noise reduction on, it was around 3.5-4 hours.No autopause. I know it is just a convenience, but I do like that feature.Would like better multi-point support.
