Shure SE112-K-BT1 Wireless Sound Isolating Earphones with Bluetooth Enabled Communication Cable

My first blue-tooth headset is the Shure SE112. Sound is very good. Battery last 6 hours fully charged ( I have not used more than 2 hours at a time). Noise isolation is fairly good ( I do not want every outside sound blocked anyway). It comes with several sized ear pads and the medium one fit fairly well. Paired easily with Ipad Pro. I am not positive if this is normal but battery does continue discharging as it sits over several days. It went from 4 hours charge to 2 hours charge without using it as it sat unused over several days. I would have given 4.5 stars as it is not perfect but it was better than 4 stars. I consider it a good purchase at $99

UPDATE: I do not know how I missed this in the first place, but Shure has included a little clip which snaps on to the “dongle” at the center of the earbuds, to attach it to your shirt collar. It’s a sort of clunky solution, but it DOES solve my main complaint about them which was that darn dongle always sliding around. I’ve changed my rating from 3 to 4 stars. Glad I misplaced the earbuds and thus missed my return window on them, ha.ORIGINAL REVIEW: I really wanted to like these, as Shure is obviously known for making excellent earbuds and in-ear monitors, and these are an affordable product carrying their audio technology. However, I’m going to be returning them. You may like them; read on for why I don’t.The sound is nice, tho lacking in bass — I just adjusted my eq and was happy, but the RHA corded buds they replaced had a good deal more bass, as do the Bluetooth Elgin Ruckus Discord buds I use at work.What drove me to dislike the Shure buds, and decide to return them, is the physical design of them. On the positive side of things, they’re comfortable *in* my ears, and block out a lot of sound.The negative, obnoxious, silly part of their design is what I assume to be the Bluetooth dongle in the middle of the cable between the earpieces (not the control dongle, which is closer to the right earpiece) — it hangs at the back of the neck, and since it’s the weightiest part of the buds, it is constantly dragging the buds down. Shure’s instructions say that the cable coming off the earpieces is designed to loop over the top/back of the ears, however it doesn’t do this well (it is not structured or memory cable) and is always falling off my ears.A good design would’ve been like the Elgin product, where there is a structured bit which is curved and stiffened to hug the neck, between the Bluetooth dongle and the control dongle, thus relieving the strain on the earpieces and causing the whole thing to “sit” around your neck.I can’t say I’d recommend theseUPDATE: the design of these is still not my favorite but the inexpensive SoundMagic earbuds I got to try to replace these, while my preferred design, have Bluetooth issues that make them aggravating to use. The Shure buds have no such issues

The sound quality is good and has all the features that I need. But I bought this only last week and every time the voice says "battery more than 4 hours" it turns off and seems to run out of battery immediately after. This is after 1-2 hours of of use.

Sound quality is miserable - so tinty - like listening to music in a tin can. And the smallest ear pads are still too big for my ears so the buds dont stay in place (even when wrapped around the back of my ears).

If you want a straight up flat signal that sounds like what the music, spoken word, etc, was mastered to sound like these are the buds for you. They pretty much just sound like shure in ear monitors. They're definitely worth the dough if you're into listening to multiple genres of music and spoken word. I was definitely getting tired of switching EQ settings to listen to a podcast because some unnamed competitor's earbuds were way too dynamic and drenched in bass.So yeah. If you're an audiophile or engineer (ex sound guy myself), you'll appreciate these little guys.The buttons are easier to touch than the typical Bluetooth phones, which is nice. Another bonus is I don't think I've ever had a problem returning a Shure product ever.The only thing I would change about these is there's no indicator light that says when it's fully charged. Just a red light saying it needs charging that goes off when it's done. A green light for done would be reassuring, but it's not a deal breaker.
