    Samsung Gear IconX 2016 Cordfree Fitness Earbuds with Activity Tracker - Black - Discontinued by Manufacturer

    • It's a good idea, but honestly wait 1 year for the tech to keep up with the product.
    • Good idea
    • Initial impressions - Nice packaging, novel idea, easily integrates with my S7 Edge
    • Well, a great idea also needs great execution, and in this case, Samsung missed the mark
    • The usall Samsung pattern(great idea great price bad quality and functionality )
    • Great idea, great controls,
    • Amazing idea, give it a few years and it'll be a great product
    • This product is a great idea.
    • Great idea but really poor execution on the part of Samsung.
    • It's such a wonderful idea.
    • The idea is great
    • Controls are handled by touchpads on the sides of the earbuds through swipes and jesters are a great idea and well executed.
    • Ultimately, for all its great ideas, the Icon X feels like it was rushed out without being adequately tested in a bid to beat the competition to the punch
    • Love the idea but needs work
    • I think this is an amazing idea and could be absolutely perfect for anyone, whether it be a person who loves to exercise or just a music junkie
    • The idea is very good.
    • Well, a great idea also needs great execution, and in this case, Samsung missed the mark
    • The Icon X are packed with great ideas; the charging case, the ambient sound mode are just two
    • Love the idea though
    • Again, another nice idea, but it’s far too easy to accidentally operate the skip or pause function when simply trying to fit the things back inside your ear
    • Its a great idea, fits nice, but needs better battery.
    • And sometimes the touch pad doesn't work as well as I like
    • So, as much as I like them and appreciate the long list of well-conceived features, without iOS compatibility I'm left with a lot of expensive features that I can't access.
    • And sometimes the touch pad doesn't work as well as I like
    • Samsung needs to do a better R&D on these.
    • Surprisingly easy to set up as well as in their use; intuitive, consistent controls, with useful feedback; well laid out - much better (simpler) approach than any similar buds.2
    • this is very important, the tips that these headphones come with suck, they are horrible, so look into foam tips and trust me, you will be shocked as to how good these sound, because they
    • However, as mentioned above they are not meant to be headphone replacements for extended time as they died in 1 hour 45 minutes just streaming music
    • There are bluetooth headphones with longer battery life that sit on the back of your neck or have ear pieces connected by a cord - Ive tried and dislike both as they are uncomfortable and even short cords can still get in the way
