    10/10 100% buy recommendation

    Very comfortable. Extremely good quality -> no compression despite BT,
    The sound is very similar to the Sennheiser Momentum IE, which means that there is a certain bassiness, but the mids and highs are not drowned out.
    I
    am very satisfied and would buy them again.
    the "go to" choice when it comes to IE BT headphones.
    The design is also very good.

    No recommendation to buy

    The Byron BT look good, have bluetooth, are well made but they fail in the things that are important for headphones.
    The headphones fall out of my ears all the time, I've tried all the ear moulds. I also find the audio quality
    of the Byron BT not nearly as good as Sennheiser in-ears in the same price range.

    Also, one of the earpieces broke when I changed it.

    I've only had good experiences with Beyerdynamic, but the Byron BT have disappointed me.

    Therefore only 2 stars

    Too bad - could have been good headphones. Nerves though...

    Good sound, easy to connect two devices. Unfortunately two problems: the BT connection is very susceptible to interference... super annoying when the music is always interrupted. (I have E8 in the meantime - without any interruptions) Second problem: when the battery is low, you are warned about it every 5 seconds. All in all, only conditionally recommendable.

    Doesn't last very long...

    Shortly before the warranty expired (fortunately), the left earpiece broke. When checking whether it was clogged, the rubber cap of the earplug broke off.

    The money for the Beyerdynamic Byron BT is better saved for decent headphones!!!!

    Absolute junk!!!

    Never buy them, they break extremely quickly. In my case within 3 days.

    I used them once for sports and the second time the right headphone stopped working.

    That is an absolute no-go for me in
    this price range.

    My cheap headphones lasted 2 years.

    In my eyes, this is clearly a fault in the workmanship of the Byron BT.

    And after I reported this to Galaxus customer service, the answer was that I should send them back and they would credit my money.

    I'm sorry, send it back at my own expense????

    Customer service and friendliness looks different.

    I am very disappointed with the product and Galaxus customer service.

    Exaggerating the bass does not make good headphones...

    Solid workmanship, everything fits. But no automatic switch-off when there is no more sound or the BT connection is gone, the battery simply runs out. And the most important thing for headphones: bass yes, plenty of it, the rest very undifferentiated to spongy, no wide stage. All in all very disappointing, price-performance is not right. I'm switching back to wired Final Audio, unfortunately they don't have anything with BT...

    • a little bass-heavy but still very good

    Used the headphones alongside my wired headphones... for fitness and public transport.
    On the whole, I find the BT earphones very good. What annoys me, however, is the fuzzy indication of the battery level and the "seductive"
    voice that appears when switching on/off.

    It's not very good as it is. With other tips it is much better.

    Not bad... but can do much better :)

    (+) magnet holding the two earphones together
    (+) simple design (although a bit too much out of the ears... but easy to handle)
    (+) discreet
    (+) construction
    (+) 8hrs of listening
    time :)

    (+/-) sound -> I'm not a fan. The sound is quite flat (no big bass), which suits me fine. No brilliance either... but very 'bright' sound (I don't know if they say that in FR). It gives an impression of clarity, which is good for anything vocal, but in the long run it's tiring (for example on a song with a lot of instruments or with a lot of highs).

    (-) (-) (-) (-) (-) (-) Yes, those are 6 (-)! The earpieces are a big mess. I can't believe Beyerdynamic supplied something of such poor quality. For any buyer: change immediately.
    How do you know if a mouthpiece is of good quality? (1) no insulation (2) very bad plastic comfort (3) even worse sound reproduction.

    I bought these earmolds: [Comply Comfort Plus Tsx-100 (3 Paar, Black, S)](https://www.digitec.ch/fr/s1/product/comply-comfort-plus-tsx-100-3-paar-noir-s-oreillettes-embouts-6073685)

    After that: really excellent isolation, good comfort, less treble and more bass (but still not for bass heads)

    (-) the size of the mic makes it pull to one side when you run... I put it on my ear and we don't talk about it anymore.

    Good sound, good mic & beautiful design

    I can't agree with the other reviews that give the headphones a bad rating.

    The headphones fit perfectly in my ear. I tested them a little at the beginning with the different attachments.

    The control with the buttons
    takes some getting used to. Above all, you still have different functions like mute etc.. I would have to refer to the instructions to find out how to do this.

    The workmanship is very good. I really like the feature with the magnets on the back of the headphones. You can wear them around your neck without any problems and don't have to worry about losing them.

    One thing that bothers me about the headphones is that you can't charge and use them.

    Avoid these.

    Where to start:

    These can apparently connected to two devices at once. However if one of those devices goes out of range, the headphones will beep and beep every few seconds until it reconnects. If it doesnt reconnect
    the beeping does not stop until you shut off the device.

    I also find it hard to get the device to connect reliably. I've previously owned Jaybirds X1 and X2 which never have a problem reconnecting. More often than not, I have to restart bluetooth on my phone and on the device to get it to connect.
     

    Pro

    • Can connect to 2 devices at once
    • Good design - magnets to hold buds together is nice
    • Smaller than Jaybirds X1/2 with similar battery life
    • microUSB charging, does not require additional dongle

    Contra

    • Can't connect to two devices at once properly.
    • Bluetooth is unreliable to connect to phone
    • Unable to trigger google now by long pressing middle button, or change button actions

    Sound Top, Processing Meh

    I am super happy with my new headphones.
    I've been using them for 4 weeks now, have changed the attachments (4 are included) and am super happy.

    Sound quality is great for a layman like me :)

    The only minus is that
    I only get a runtime of about 4 hours :(

    Update: After 3 months of daily use, I am now on a runtime of only 2.5 hours (always almost complete discharge and recharge).

    Good Bluetooth headphones at a fair price

    I bought the Byron BT as a replacement for my Sennheiser MM70i and I am positively surprised. Price-performance ratio is absolutely TOP for Bluetooth headphones. The sound is very good, although the bass could be a little better. The workmanship is convincing so far, only the earpieces are of very low quality and tear very quickly as soon as you want to change them. The battery life is quite sufficient if you don't listen to music all day. The remote control is very simply designed and easy to use. The only drawback is that the volume control only controls the volume on the headphones and not on the iPhone directly.

    Nice to Have

    I bought the headphones as an alternative to the normal headphones with a 3.5 mm jack plug. The price-performance ratio for these Bluetooth headphones is very satisfactory. The headphones are made of bronze aluminium and very comfortable to wear, but they sometimes slip a little out of the ear, which is not too bad. The battery lasts a good 1 day if you don't listen to music at full volume.

    Scrap ! A pity for every centime, would not be worth the money even for Fr. 10.

    For me, the part is absolute junk!
    All the inserts were painstakingly mounted one after the other, tried them, none of them hold in my ears, without the headband (summer!) they keep falling off. Operation is absolutely
    complicated, it remains unclear how I switch off this headset.
    The sound is far better than that of the cheap wired headphones.
    Only solution: dispose of it.

    Puny battery

    The headphones would get 5 stars from me if it weren't for the following negative points:

    After 1.5 years, the battery lasts 3 hours, if at all.

    And especially annoying and worthy of a design price. *drum roll
    You
    can't use the last half hour of the already puny battery because the device kindly reminds you every 30 seconds that the battery level is low! *facepalm

    Not recommended

    Would not buy them again. The sound is not bad, especially if you listen to classical or jazz. However, they sound quite flat. The battery is not very good and the headphones are big so they fall out of your ear easily.
