ABRAMTEK E8 Wireless Earbuds for Small Ears, Mini Bluetooth Headphones, IPX7 Waterproof Earphones for Sports Workout, Black

I started looking for a new pair of earbuds after I lost my last pair of Tranya T3s and found that they are discontinued and can't be bought anywhere anymore. I have owned many pairs of Tranyas, including T1s, T3s, and M10Bs. I've also owned other brands of earbuds. Here are things I like and don't like about these ABRAMTEKs:Ways the ABRAMTEK's are as good as the TRANYA's:-Button control: These ABRAMTEKs have nice, big, easy-to-press physical buttons. Most of the new models of earbuds from different brands have capacitive touch control. I have owned some like this, but I never wear them because I am always accidentally triggering the touch control, just by moving them between my pockets and my ears. It is getting increasingly hard to find earbuds with physical buttons.-Bulletproof connection: My Tranya M10B's, specifically, have a problem where the audio cuts in and out when I am moving around, or put my phone in my pocket. These ABRAMTEKs don't have that problem. Audio is smooth and uninterrupted.Ways the ABRAMTEKs are Better than the Tranyas:-Small case: I think the importance of this feature cannot be overstated. Even though all earbuds cases are small, this one is actually small enough to go in my pocket without being uncomfortable or stretching out my pants. Specifically, this case is thinner than other cases. Because of this, I can actually take the case with me when I am out hiking, etc. All the different earbuds manufacturers advertise the amount of charge held in the case. Well, if the case is too big to be comfortable in my pocket, then I leave the case behind and its battery life is irrelevant. Since I can actually take this case with me, the earbuds really do last as long as I am out, which might be 12 or more hours a day.Ways the ABRAMTEKs are worse than the Tranyas:-Volume control: in the Tranyas, double-pressing on the right button turns volume up, and double-pressing on the left button turns the volume down. In the ABRAMTEKs, a double-press opens Google Assistant. That's not good for me, because I almost never use Google Assistant, and now I can't control the volume from the buds. For me, this isn't a deal-breaker, though, because I always have my phone in my pocket, anyways, and I can adjust the volume there without turning the screen on-Audio signal when skipping tracks: With the Tranya's, when you do a long-press of the right or left button, there is a little "pling" noise to let you know when you've held the button long enough to skip the track forward or backward. The ABRAMTEKs don't have this audio signal, so you just have to guess when you've held the button long enough. If you didn't hold the button long enough, it will pause the track instead of skipping

When looking for earbuds I had a short list of required and nice to have features. A requirement was for both ear buds to be identical in shape so they could go in either ear and for them to connect to my phone independently. My nice to have features were wireless charging, simultaneous connection to multiple devices, a physical button, and small case size. I narrowed my search to three choices. The Tozo T10, Abramtek E8, and Zingbird T62.I initially chose the Tozo T10 because it was the only one to support wireless charging. The Tozo earbuds worked well though I didn't like the size of the case and I couldn't get used to the capacitive button. It was 50/50 on whether it would respond to my touch.I decided to try the Abramtek E8 because it was the only one that had a physical button. When I opened the box I was shocked to see how small the case was. It's smaller than a ring box. The web site listed the dimensions but I hadn't believed it because it didn't seem realistic and I've seen other product dimensions be incorrect. I've had the E8's about a week and I'm happy with the purchase. The ear buds are smaller than most but they fit me fine and stay in my ear. If you're someone that always chooses the largest ear pieces you may not like it but if you're like me and usually chose the medium size it will be fine.I expect the E8's case will need to be charged more frequently than earbuds with larger cases but the battery life has been fine so I think the tradeoff for a small case will be worth it.

Like other people mentioned, these are in fact about the smallest wireless earbuds you can find. No bells and whistles but an ok price point for decent true-wireless earbuds. I have very small ears and the smallest silicone tips for once are not still too big for my ear canal. Sound quality is good, and I like that they have real buttons you have to push opposed to touch buttons you can activate by accident. I use an iPhone and pairing was simple.One thing that really drives me crazy and I DO NOT LIKE AT ALL is once they are fully charged they act like they are no longer in the case, and instead of staying turned off until I remove them they automatically turn on while still nestled in the charging cavities to pair with my phone if I happen to have Bluetooth on and the earbud case is in the vicinity. This is quite obnoxious and took me forever to figure out because I thought it was something wrong with my phone and didn't realize the sound suddenly cut out because it was diverted to another device. I was turning my phone off and on every time this happened, trying to "reset" it, which technically worked because the Bluetooth disconnected with the phone turned off. I typically turn off Bluetooth if I'm not directly using it for security, and only realized the earbuds were stealing the signal when I purposely turned off Bluetooth while leaving the phone on, and the sound suddenly came back. The next time it happened I checked my earbuds and found I could faintly hear the audio of the YouTube video I'd been watching from inside the case. This also annoys me because it eats up battery life if they automatically turn on in the case and I don't realize. This sucks especially considering these have some of the lowest battery run times of any wireless earbuds on the market. If I had been aware of this problem with automatically turning on while still in the case before I purchased I probly wouldn't have bought them.
