Avanca Minim True Wireless Bluetooth Stereo Mini In-Ear Headphone with Microphone - Metallic Black

Poor battery life and poor quality connection. If using both earbuds, one will continuously disconnect and reconnect.

Good sound, easy to use, and a stylish storage case/charger

Were very good - but stopped working after 6 months. Contact with the supplier has not resulted in any reply at all. Poor show.

I have to say I really wanted to love love love this product but other reviewers have reported a flaw in that connectivity between the two ear buds drops out sporadically in stereo mode. It could happen once every 20 minutes or 4 times in quick succession. Effectively as part of pairing one of the buds becomes the 'Master' bud and this links to your iOS device, the other bud becomes the 'Slave' . The signal from the iphone / ipad /PC / Android device to the Master bud is never lost but the signal between Master and Slave periodically drops out. It is momentary but it definitely distracts from your listening pleasure. I too have experienced this issue and I was almost putting these away and then I thought I will give them a proper overnight charge. Since doing this they have worked properly and I do love this product.Other reviewers have indicated issues pairing the buds with each other (Pairing with a device is easy) - I too found this issue. However I found it 100% reliable following this method:1. Switch on Primary earbud (you will hear it 'Pair' to its paired iOS/Android device2. Switch on Slave earbud - it will say 'Connected' to the Primary earbud3. Switch on the music on the iOS deviceIf I switched Music on after stage 1 then the slave earbud had problems finding the Master earbud.Other than that I absolutely love this product. The charging case is a thing of beauty which neatly allows the buds to be stored and charged discreetly. The buds locate themselves on the charging pins magnetically which is very neat. Coupled with some discreet LEDs - it is a finely engineered product.Answering the phone whilst music is simple and the microphone despite being stuck in my ear still works perfectly. The buds themselves remained firmly lodged in my ear --- this is impressive intself as the apple buds did not seem to fit my ear. If these do not fit then there are two alternative sizes in the case.I do not see the point in marking this product down because the buds may fall out and get lost -- this is something you have to accept with any of these type buds. If that is a concern buy ones that have the strings that wrap around the back of your necks. All I can say is that these stayed lodged in my ear as I walked around the house and down to the shops and back again.Audio quality is excellent with nice crisp sounds although low-mid range was not quite as deep and full as I might like - but still amazing for such a small device. I compared to the standard Apple supplied buds and these more than matched them with better bass. Only when I compared them to my AKG 240's which are over ear wired headphones did I begin to notice that the clarity was somewhat muted. .... but then I wouldnt walk outside with my AKG's :) Noise leakage from the earbuds was minimal.For me this is so near to a five star product but falls just short because of the performance of the slave bud when battery drops off maximum.

Long battery life as promissed by the manufacturer.Lightweight and I don't feel them in my ears.Audio is surprisingly excellent. It is not the best compared to wired but it is top notch for Bluetooth devices, it's great to listen to music without cables.Simple pairing with my iphone.The case and earbuds feel solid. Good build quality.

Tested with iPad II running iOS 11.2 and also Lumia 950 using Windows 10, the units and charging capsule left on charge for several hours.Sadly, I found these units had problems maintaining a stereo signal; it seems the "main" earbud requires a stronger linking signal with its "partner" to avoid disconnects. Passing your hand close to a unit, moving your head etc. was enough to cause the drop out and the "partner" would blink blue to reconnect. This happened frequently enough to make using them in stereo mode impossibly frustrating. The problem was identical with the iPad and the Lumia, suggesting the Minim's were not quite right.It's a huge shame as the units and the charging capsule are beautifully finished and the sound quality is very good; it was easy to hear the huge difference between 320Kbps MP3 I'd ripped and the same on a compressed Amazon stream.Bass extension is good; I found with the largest size of the three silicon tips fit and comfort was excellent. Would I wear while commuting and risk losing one onto the track? Perhaps not...which does beg the question when would you use them. Maybe at the gym?The software to skip tracks, answer a call etc. all works fine which is a surprise for Bluetooth.A real shame the stereo mode just wasn't reliable in my experience as there's clearly little point in buying for just a mono unit.

Only been using these for a week. So far I completely love them. Set up was very easy. They come with a charging capsule...plug that into a usb power supply with the supplied cable and pop ear buds in. Charges within a few hours. The ear buds have a light that glows red whilst charging... visible through a slot in the capsule... love the design!Pairing to android phone couldn't be easier. I haven't had the disconnection issues others have mentioned. Obviously it's not a wired connection but I have no problems so far.Very comfortable in the ear. Light. They come with 3 ear bud tips for sizing and fit my ears well. So far they have not fallen out. I like that you can use both for stereo, or just one in mono mode... useful if you need to keep one ear free.The sound is great. You can adjust the volume and rewind or forward the song with a press of the button. Can also answer or reject caĺls with a touch.Price makes these a bit of an investment for lots of us... but I think the quality and design explains the cost. If I compare these to headband style wireless bins from major labels (mine are Sony, my husband has Senheisers), these actually seem very affordable at less than 25% of the price. The sound quality stands up well in comparison also.I am not technical but I am a music lover with several decades experience of buying and using headphones and I would buy these at the drop of a hat. I think they're fabulous.
