Immpressive device regardless of the issues I found
The sound is great, very clean and clear, whether you're streaming audio or from a call. Stays in my ear secure and even when it's not snug in my ear it still stays in thankfully. I am having issues with callers not being able to hear me clearly. They say I sound muffled or can't make out the words or hear me very low. I'm guessing this could be the placement of this device in my ear canal. Unfortunately I can't figure out a good placement so that my voice comes across clearly. My options are very limited and doesn't make a difference as to which ear I use. Another issue I just started having after 2 months with this device is that it doesn't charge properly. I'm not sure if this is because I always let it completely run out of juice before charging it again. When I try to use it again it dies within 10 minutes if not immediately and this is after leaving it to charge at least 2 hours. I noticed while it's charging it constantly connects and drops off my Galaxy S5. I also have it paired with my mini iPad but I always disable one of the Bluetooth so that the Rowkin Mini only connects to one device at a time. Even though this is not necessary, there are some earpieces that will continuously chop up audio until you disable one of multiple devices you have it paired to. That's just a Bluetooth thing that I've learned to overlook. The Rowkin Mini does this chopping sometimes and I have several older earpieces that do the same; Jawbone, Plantronic, BlueAnt, some generics. I'll have to check if there is a firmware I can apply to resolve this issue of constantly connecting and dropping off my phone while it's charging. And it is indeed sweat proof which made me love this device despite the issues.

Did not work for 10hrs total before it stopped working completely!!! Beware
I bought this earbud around April and it worked about 2 weeks, then the charger no longer charged my earbud and it stopped working completely. I did contact the company and let them know, they said it needed to be reset, we tried to no avail, & seemed hesitant with their customer service, I only wanted a new earbud, but then told me they could only refund me or even exchange my defective earbud if I returned the manual and all. I had everything (including proof of purchase) but, My 4 yr old tore my manual to pieces right after it arrived via Amazon. Needless to say I spent $72+ only to get about 10 hours total use of my Rowkin, DEFINITELY NOT WORTH THE PRICE AND NO ASSURANCE YOU WILL GET YOUR $$$ WORTH IN USING THIS PRODUCT!

Great headset if the phone is less than 2 feet ...
Great headset if the phone is less than 2 feet away (at the office phone is next to keyboard). Music and voice were clear. When the phone is in pants pocket, connection drops in and out. Battery life is as advertised, 60 minutes of usage and it takes about 60 minutes to fully charged as well.Headset connected to Gear S2 Classic Only (no phone)Walked the dog around the neighborhood and no issue when headset is on the same side as the watch (left). Switch headset to right ear, transmission faded in and out.

READ ME! It's great.
I am incredibly happy with this headphone. I use it mainly for music, even though it does have a mic. The mic sounds very tinny like you're far away from it but it's still audible, but you really can't get upset over that because it's so small and compact. It works. The sound quality is wonderful even at max volume (I listen to r&b). As for the Bluetooth distance, I have been very surprised. It has a hard time with the signal traveling through your body sometimes ( as in if it were in your back pocket ) or other bodies if you leave it on the table and walk away and brick walls. Otherwise I can walk a good 15 feet away with few obstructions. Once it cuts out you have to walk all the way back to your phone though. It never falls out of your ear unless your ear is wet. I read that the battery life is an hour and a half. Mine goes a little over two hours before I plug it into the awesome portable battery. Just plug it in and put it into your pocket like a lipstick and wait 30/45 minutes and it'll have a good charge in it again. On my phone it tells me the battery level of the piece ! Very cool. Extremely happy and definitely surprised at the sound quality. With the button you can pause music or call the last person you called and hang up with it too. I love it! Give it a shot. But like I said not so great for talking on the phone.

Reasonable product, but expected more for the price.
The earpiece is comfortable, has a reasonable battery life (what it lacks in its own battery is made up for with the inclusion of a portable charging reserve), and has a decent range by comparison to other products. BUT, it is very lacking in the sound quality department. All music sounds tinny and has 0 depth (no distinguished bass). I would have been ok with this if I had not also purchased a cheaper earpiece for comparison, the tan plastic hearing aid looking earpiece has much better sound quality, if it were not for the discomfort of the hard plastic tip It would be the outright winner in this comparison. For $60 I would have expected at least reasonable sound quality. If you plan on using this for calls and hands free utility I would highly recommend, but if, like myself, you are looking for a discrete wireless earbud for more recreational purposes I would recommend looking someplace else.

i like the design
i like the design, its small size, and that you can connect to 2 devices at the same time. but I couldn't care less about that portable charger though, instead I wish the talk time was longer than 1 hour.t's not a bad device, but for that prize? I got it for $59. I also own a ATOM Bluetooth Earbud by Handstands ($25), its a bit larger but the charge lasts 4 hours. You basically get two of those and you're set with an all day bluetooth earbud, and its still cheaper than the Rowkin.

Great sound quality, some Bluetooth wrinkles to iron out
I mainly use this for listening to podcasts while commuting. Amazing form factor and great sound quality. Battery lasts me about 1 hour at a time. My only complaint is that Bluetooth link is delicate. I need to have it in a pocket on same side of body as my phone, and if I turn my head, there's static. It's a significant flaw in an otherwise amazing product.This is a pioneering product and no doubt future generations (or future manufacturers) will have better battery life and connectivity. But for what's available on the market right now, it's pretty great.

Worst Experience
It has not meet the expectations, It's my 4th day of using the product and a big disappointment. I have used other Bluetooth headsets and never experienced any disconnecting, even from 0.5 MTR distance. It keeps disconnecting frequently, secondly the one time charging battery did not lasted more than 40 mins. According to given features, figures and price, it has not fulfilled any and a complete waste of money.

Avoid! Bad range, signal drops repeatedly & poor battery life.
Short battery life (1/2hr of use between charges).Doesn't automatically connect with phone when switched on.Charging unit doesn't hold a charge for more than a few days.Appalling range! Need to keep phone in top shirt pocket to prevent signal drop outs when walking, even then the signal drops if you turn your head slightly.All in all avoid. I've since bought a similar item made by Safvy & although it also has a few similar faults and is about £10.00 more expensive it is still far and away a better product.My advice would be to spend a little more & get alot better.

Poor quality and very limited range.
The connection drops if the smartphone is in my back pocket. It works only if I hold my p9 in front of me. The working range is very limited and the audio quality very poor. I'm used to brands like Plantronics, Senheiser and Sony. The bluetooth headsets of these brands are a thousand times better.

Extremely poor range.
Worked fine for a couple of days then the Bluetooth range reduced to the point to make the product useless, no or very poor/intermittent sound when more than 6 inches from the device.

Do not buy!
Absolute rubbish lasts like 20 minutes and then forever running out of battery, says 2 hour...not a chance what so ever...absolute waste of money
