What colour did you get? Assuming its the model with the charging case?

Mind providing a short review from your personal use? What are your usage scenarios?

Cool, no problem. I'll re-post my "impressions/review" message below from the MyBB site that I did a few weeks ago.
P.S. Yes, it is the wireless charging case model (I'm not aware of any other models).
Also, I don't like shiny stuff really so from all the colors available I opted for the Dark Coffee colour which looks more "stylish" and less cheap in my opinion. I wasn't disappointed.

Review:

The reviews on these are spot on, but I didn't expect them to truly compete with my daily drivers and my main over ear phones at work (Sennheiser HD555's driven by Sony amp & Audio Technica ATH-M50x's on an Asus Xonar U7)... but I'd be lying if I said I don't actually enjoy the buds more in some circumstances (especially when moving around, at the office, or doing dishes and drinking a beer at home etc.) They very much have an enjoyable "clubbing" audio signature to them.

About the only thing lacking compared to my high end headsets would be the mid range clarity and the brightness characteristics of very high frequencies, but you'd only know that if you actually used higher end cans often.
(Of course soundstage(s) also differ but these are earbuds, not open backs, you're supposed to get that "in your head" sound which I like since I almost never use a "headphone" mode on amps, soundcards etc.)

The noise levels and separation is really good, and the bass is excellent, literally some of the best I've heard given the fact that I listen to a lot of electronic, post-rock, alt-electronic, futurepop , synthpop and industrial music, and the included rubber earbuds make a huge difference in finding the right "tune" and fit. They remind me a lot of a pair of wired Bose On Ears I had years ago, those were also very bassy with a "U" shaped sound curve, but I absolutely loved them because they were so fun to listen to, these have better, tighter bass and more clarity than the Bose though.

Volume wise there's nothing to say really. I haven't pushed them all the way and neither will I, anything over 80% would be way too loud for me or I'd need to be really drunk and looking for a fight with tinnitus.

The coolest thing though is the "futuristic" feel, and that probably goes for most decent wireless earbuds, but still. I almost never touch my phone when using them. Just open the case, pop in the buds and tap on of them and you're good to go. When you're done you just pop them in the case. Rinse, repeat. It's a cool feeling and just as convenient as it needs to be, any less convenient and I'd probably have used them less since I've never really used my phone as an audio source, except maybe in the car on long trips.

I bought them mostly just as a curiosity and not expecting much, but I will definitely be keeping mine around all the time.

My BT headset didn't want to work on Saturday. I figured it was flat. Put it on charge, saw the red light, cool. Didn't want to go on tonight at gym...
Battery just stopped working. Works when plugged into charger... Sad panda. Hope the new owners enjoys
