As you can see above, my precious Pi8s are displayed. All looks fine and normal at first glance. But the context of this picture that is missing is that this image is the data off the earphones after not being used in the case for two days. As you can see…my battery percent for the earphones are only 87% . 87% on earphones that have been charging in the case and should have been fully charged to 100% for the last two days, and yet still I don’t have full battery. Mind you, these earphones are $399. It’s a lot of money to have something this commonly managed by even the smallest and lowest cost earphones elsewhere. On top of that, the earphone case even shows that the earphones are fully charged by the light on the case, but they aren’t. And even when you do use them, they take forever to claim that they are charged(amongst the slowest charging earbuds I’ve ever had). And again…this is one of the most expensive earphones in the world. These are three things that make me doubt choices and look to others. Even if these cost $70, I would not accept this. So at $399, I just can’t accept this, but I’m not sure what I can do but warn you.

So be warned, folks, there are issues. This, again, is what makes the Az80, which is the only perfect earphone I’ve ever had that has never failed at anything they claimed, so needed. It’s also the highest bit of any bluetooth earphones I’ve even turned to Bose as an option these last few weeks, which has better reliability than the Pi8’s. Just when I think things are truly amazing and the best… things like this happen to remind me again, just how special it is to do exactly what you claim without compromise, and very few companies fulfill this. It’s too late for me to return them, but if I could… I would. I can’t truly recommend these earphones anymore to others until it’s fixed , especially at this price.
