These earbuds are a great value at $24, but be aware they start in Japanese. To switch to English, swipe right twice on the case screen until you see the language menu. On the main screen, the Japanese text イコライザー means 'Equalizer' and ノーマル means 'Normal' mode. Also, ignore the yellow card in the packaging offering a $20 gift card for a 5-star review—it’s an unofficial third-party offer and not necessary for an honest review. I love the sound quality and upon taking with Gemini in getting help week translation d in not that familiar or fluent in Japanese, I had help, but the sound and stuff is really, Kulz. though I'd personally watch out for the cars in the golden envelope, not sure is its a scan or not, but I'll totally check it out when able, but for now they're an awesome replacement for the ones I had prior nan upgrade is you will. -B.
