These are my absolute favorite earbuds! I have been using mine for over a year now.

[@jonathanrowan462]

I love my pair of Raycons they are great earbuds

[@rochat143]

My son has the Raycon headphones and loves them for his computer. He is not visually impaired. I am VI and have only used the Shokz bone conduction. I would like more controls on the device so I may check out the Raycon when I can afford them.

[@HansLast]

Would theese ear buds work when using navigation software, like Voice Vista or Lazarillo, or Blind Square, since theese earbuds have Aware mode?

[@joshua476]

What does the button on them do? Also do they leg when using screenreaders? I got after shocks and leg with talkback or voiceover is super bad to the point i dont wanna use them

[@motobojo2]

I listen to podcasts a lot and the sponsor spots / ads seem to be getting longer and more frequent, so the ability to easily skip forward & back is VERY important, as well as pause and play. The controls fo answer the phone and hang up are also i9mportant. What can you tells us about the controls of this sort. Physical button is nice, but what about the details of their use and usability. I went to their website and didn't find any details on that.

[@jemmabrown1988]

You need to check out the soundcore aerofit pro - incredible. I thought they would be the best earbuds for the vi community. Transparency mode on AirPods Pro have arguably the best transparency mode on the market so I’m not sure about your claims but nice review.

[@theblindlife]

I don't own air pods myself, so I wasn't able to test this out. I've just heard a lot of other reviewers who have tested it say that Raycon overall sounded better, or at least sounded just as good at half the price.

[@KennethBSmith]

I have the SoundCore Space A40 buds. I think they were recommended by NYT Wirecutter. They look very similar to these. Case, size etc. Sound is Very Good. Oddly, they do not connect to my TV. Based on Sam's review about prompts and buttons, I just order these. If they don't connect to the TV, I will return them.

[@seamarie3111]

@@theblindlifeHonestly, I wouldn't say that they sound as good as/better than Air Pods at half the price unless that's something you've personally experienced. I'm not saying that's false or anything, but a little more transparency about what brands of buds you've tried would be cool. As a VIP, I love my Air Pods because they're just nice and easy. I've paired them to more than just iOS devices too. I don't have the pros with the ANC and transparency mode, because I kind of hate silicon tips, but might try those next. I have a pair of 2nd gen AirPods that are over 4 years old and still work, though the lid's kind of busted from heavy use, the glue having sort of warn off or whatever they use to keep the lid layers together. My AirPods 3rd generation are also awesome, and my daly drivers. My left pod didn't quite survive the mighty jaws of a ten-month-old, 60-pound poodle puppy named Zeus, not that I expected it to, but other than that they've lasted great! I was just glad he didn't puncture the battery, just mangled the upper stem a bit. So glad for AppleCare, where $30 netted me a new left pod. Anyway, I'm off topic. I also got my little sister a pair of Beats studio buds, which are more of the stemless type design with a physical button though she's fully sighted. As for the voice or whatever, I think that's all up to preference. I don't mind either way, but am voice picky so kind of dislike when the voice is a certain way, like the voice in my old Bose headphones. My Sony headphones, though, have a great voice. I want to say it sounds like NeoSpeach Julie, though I could be wrong. However, I like music tones for power and battery just fine. I can see why some like the voice though. My dad prefers his pair of Sony headphones over Beats because they talk to him to say they're on and connected, while the Beats only play a tune when on/connected.

[@larrytestut4655]

That’s awesome.

[@99ddude]

wondering if they would work with a TV?

[@stuartduncan2772]

Aaaaaargghhhh! Wish I'd seen this yesterday. I've just spent £240 on a pair of replacement Apple AirPods Pro 2 because my AirPods Pro gen 1 are faulty. ds P. I might still buy a pair of Raycons once I''m over the pain of this purchase.

[@AmyJLee]

What about wearing one at a time? Does the microphone automatically switched from when one to the other?

[@edwardalonzo]

Yes. you can use just one and the mic works fine on where one you use.

[@kidsonicofficial]

I'd actually recommend the Soundcore Liberty 4 NC which are around the same price (around $100 when not on sale - $80 when on sale. Don't quote me on that though as I'm from the UK and I'm roughly estimating the prices). They're amazing for sound quality, they're noise cancelling (they do have a transparency mode), the app is really nice and easy to see (the best app I've used so far). Don't let Raycon lead you to believe they're "Industry Leaders" as this is just marketing jargon to make you believe they're worth more than they actually are. While the Soundcore Liberty 4 NC don't come in many colours, they do have predominantly bright colours apart from the Black pair.

[@InspiredInsights4U]

Hi Sam, nice for you could you explain a little bit about how the buttons work such as when you’re answering a phone call or starting and stopping your audiobooks I have some dexterity issues in my hands as well, and would like to know how these are budge function in that respect Thanks again

[@davidguymon1673]

I've never liked wireless earbuds cause they pop out of my ear and cause how easy it is for me to lose shit I'd lose these in a second. This is why I stay with bone conduction headphones.

[@glamoleyes3010]

Do you have any idea what their return policy is? I have tiny ear space and have always had a lot of problems with earbuds .

[@isabelshoemaker1327]

They’d actually probably fit you I think. They’re pretty tiny.

[@DaWurd]

I have trouble with truly wireless earbuds, as they tend to fall out of my ear and then I never see them again. I bought a pair of wireless earphones that hang around my neck so that if one should fall out it just hangs and I can get it and put it back in

[@glamoleyes3010]

@@DaWurd Do you recommend them?

[@AirsoftTipsandReviews]

Too bad I just saw this review now. A few months back I boght Sony LinkBuds S. They have very simmular features, but now I would probably get Raycons (going on your review and features set)

[@theblindlife]

Oh man, sorry I didn’t come out with it sooner!

[@blindsurvival8570]

Is the model called Everyday Earbuds or are you just saying that as a general term? Is there a model number?

[@theblindlife]

Yes they are called everyday earbuds. If you go through the link in the description, you should be able to find them. And be sure to use the discount code BLINDLIFE to get 15% off.

[@blindsurvival8570]

@@theblindlife Thank you!

[@tizmehere492]

I wish they had earbuds that you could force to emit a tone in case you dropped them and could not find them.

[@seamarie3111]

You mean like automatically play a tone if they sense they're out of your ears and out of their case? Yes, that would be nice. I like the FindMy app for my 3rd-gen air pods fine, but the sounds aren't always super loud and its near/far feature is imprecise. Once, I had misplaced my Air Pods and it kept showing they were in the laundry room, so I was terrified they'd fallen into the washer or dryer. However, turns out they were on a table down in my room one story below that.

[@caldwell5078]

These earbuds have tens of thousands of negative reviews! Then they change the Amazon store and pay for positive reviews I know because they paid for mine

[@dmac5472]

I like the product and sent in an honest review. But I do know that they do have the paid sponsorships. I bought my earbuds after buying their over the ear headphones. I'm not an audiophile but I was in need of some headphones after my Beats Solo 2 wired headphones started to wear out at the earcups. It was right before vacay in July 2022 and I was on a lil budget so I picked em up using a promo sales code for 20%. The positive experience led me to get the earbuds in sept. They've both served me well for almost 2 yrs. So much to where I got their speaker and would consider their newer products. The over the ear headphone cups holding up good w no real sign of wear. Now the earbuds..I have been clumsy with them lol. I have dropped them on these hard NYC sidewalks alot. Sound quality the same but the case has some scratching. Still intact structurally tho.

[@isabelshoemaker1327]

I actually really hate these buds. Bought them a while ago. Terrible sound. Easy to lose. Very tiny. I vastly prefer my Anker buds or my Bose.

[@douglaslawlor622]

Do these have a mute function?

[@theblindlife]

Yes, single pressing the button will play or pause the playback.

[@douglaslawlor622]

I was looking for a mute function while on a call.

[@edwardalonzo]

I have to double tap the button to pause or play, but I don’t know if it supports a mute or the calling feature. I have to give that a try.

[@MarksMusicCollection]

Turning off Noise cancellation, or tuen on your microphones and play them back though your ear pieces? What it means its giving the opertunity to have where you are, what your doing, and everything round you be recorded of which that data is then sold on. It is far better to just not have noise cancelling earbuds in the first place. That is how i see it anyway.

[@khanhhm5762]

Interesting. Can you explain in detail how the data would be recorded?

[@MarksMusicCollection]

@@khanhhm5762 the same as it's always has been. We all know Apple and Samsung etc record what is said in earshot of phones. You mention for example a pet and then you get adds for pet products in our feed. Now with people using wireless earbuds phones are often out of voice range. In a bag etc. So now the microphones in earbuds are used to pick up on what is missed with the phone potential muffled, to continue that same data collection.

[@seamarie3111]

⁠Sure, great logic ... unless you're using the things with something that DOESN't have an internet connection, or even can't get on the internet at all, such as a bluetooth-enabled stereo, MP3 player, or bluetooth transmitter hooked up to a device that doesn't support BlueTooth natively. Also, I'd figure that the mics used for ANC and transparency aren't sending audio through to your phone, just a direct connection to the headphones speakers, though I could be wrong on that last point. I'm not going to not buy ANC/transparency mode headphones just because my phone could be a peeping Tom, ... or Eavesdropping Edie, as the case may be. I might as well not have a phone at all in that case... 🙄 The headphones I use aren't going to have much impact on whatever my phone is programmed to do.

[@khanhhm5762]

@@MarksMusicCollection Thanks for your response; I'm sorry I just saw this now. I don't quite agree with your logic but I do appreciate that you responded.

[@christopherreilly5339]

Raycon is absolute shit for customer support. All those entertainment folks were paid to endorse them, just like you. How about do me a solid and get me a part number for the fitness Earbuds batteries so I can find a replacement since the right bud starts sucking azz after about 6 months.

[@Not-A-Woke-Liberal]

These are trash and cheap can’t believe you fell for it

[@seamarie3111]

It's a sponsored video, so ... take with an ocean of salt? Not trying to be harsh on the guy, and I've never used them, but I'll stick to my AirPods, which yes have a rep of their own but work for me.

[@theblindlife]

I am 100% honest in my videos, even if they are sponsored. The media kit I sent out to companies clearly states that so there’s no misunderstanding from the start. I was telling the truth in this video, these really are the best earbuds that I have tried. I don’t own Apple AirPods so can’t compare them together. However, as I stated in the video, I’ve heard a lot of people say that they are on par and maybe even have better audio quality. Perhaps the first commenter just got a bad set.

[@seamarie3111]

@@theblindlifeWhoa, I'm sorry that came out wrong, and perhaps "ocean of salt" was not the most tactful phrasing. For that, I apologize. I suppose I need to put into prospective that to put up a sponsored video, and to allow them to sponsor you in the first place, you must have confidence in the product. I enjoy your videos, and didn't mean to tar you as someone who misleads people. I do feel like kind of a donkey's backside for my harsh phrasing -- not meaning to be harsh is not the same as not being harsh in the first place. I look forward to more great content from you in the future, with no further harsh contents on my end. I am sorry for any hard feelings, and hope you have a lovely weekend.
