I own the AirPods Pro and as such my review of these Beben earbuds will use the AirPods for comparison even though arguably it's not a fair comparison among many things the main being price.
The Beben earbuds paired very easily to my iPhone with very little set up effort other than making sure they were in pairing mode and selecting them in bluetooth settings on my phone. It is as painless as connecting most other bluetooth headphones but without the cool animation of AirPods. After pairing the Beben earbuds the seem to connect every bit as quickly as the AirPods Pro on my iPhone XS. Short of using an actually timer to verify the connection speed I detected no noticeable difference in the time it takes to connect these vs the AirPods. As with the AirPods, as soon as you open the lid of the earbuds case and take either one or both out they pair with your phone. The only slight negative is that there is a message for each headphone that says "primary" and "secondary" each time you put them in your ears. Both earbuds can function independently for both music and calls and like the AirPods you can take off either earbud and place it back in the case and still listen on the other one. Swapping back and forth between using only one or both earbuds is seamless and about the same as using AirPods. Unlike AirPods these don't automatically pause music when you take one earbud out only if you take both out and put them back in the case. This is because they don't have an in ear sensor like AirPods do. I would say when it comes to connection these are as good as AirPods except that AirPods are tied to your iCloud account so it's easier to seamlessly switch between Apple devices with AirPods.
Now for the biggest discrepancy in reviews on here, the sound quality. First off, remember what these cost and adjust your expectations accordingly. I purchased these for around $32 and for that price they are excellent. These are not $250 AirPods Pros or $400 Beats headphones. As some reviewers have noticed they are a little heavy in bass although I would not say obnoxiously so but it is noticeable to some degree. I much prefer a little bit much bass vs having nothing but treble like the headphones of the early 90s. Actually, in the area of sound quality I don't feel the AirPods Pro are leaps and bounds above these and only surpass the Beben earbuds in noise cancellation and transparency mode. These are only noise cancelling based on the fact that they go into your ear and create a seal vs the AirPods Pro which use technology to actively cancel noise. Yes the AirPods Pro are better sounding and balanced but the Beben earbuds don't sound horrible and are reasonable for the price range.
I didn't experiment with the different eartips that come with the Beben earbuds because the size that comes on them fits my ear comfortably, however, there are several sizes in the box for various ear sizes. I can comfortably wear these for several hours like my AirPods without any ear discomfort and in fact am surprised about how comfortable they are in comparison to the inexpensive earbuds I have owned.
In the area of call quality these are actually no better or worse than the AirPods Pro. I am on the phone for several hours a day and use a Plantronics Voyager Legend as my primary device which is excellent for noise cancelling. When I have talked to the same people using both these earbuds and my AirPods they have told me that both sound the same, meaning they work but don't cancel out the noise, and that the Plantronics is still the most clear. Neither the AirPods nor these earbuds were better or worse than the other but not as good as a dedicated noise cancelling bluetooth.
Battery life seems to be very good both with the charging case and earbuds although I haven't used them for enough hours to totally run them dead so I won't speak to exact battery life. Finally, in terms of water resistance this is something I am not actively seeking to test but even if they prove not to be so water resistant they are not expensive enough for me to worry about.
So, my final verdict is that if you keep in mind the price for which these cost, then you won't be disappointed. If you're expected AirPods, go buy AirPods.

Update April 2024 -Amazing for price, Good overall, Works with iPhone, Decent Airpods replacement
Update April 2024Let it be known I have treated these poorly on purpose. I have dropped them an uncountable time; both the individual earbuds and the case, gotten them wet, drained the battery to nothing, used them for 8 hours at a stretch. I did things to these earbuds that I would never, ever, do to my Airpods. That being said, the left earpiece is working at about 1/2 the volume capacity and I lost the little screen insert on the right one (not in my ear). Volume on Right still strong and the battery just won't quit. Hope that helps.All the best, Just BenjaminOriginal December 2023The good, bad, ugly, and thoughts.GOOD: These work, I mean, really work. I can walk 40' from phone and still have connection. I have used them with non-stop music & video streaming for upwards of 6 hours without recharging the buds and they never quit. Base also holds a great charge. Sound is good (not fabulous), but solidly good and people on other side of calls also say it sounds good. Finally, the Price is Crazy Good. I paid over $100 for my airpods (lasted 3 years), and only 20% of that for these.BAD: When not actively listening to something the ear buds have a low constant static noise until they shut-down and are also loud when they are pairing. Trying to remove the ear buds from the case is difficult but not crazy difficult, especially during the winter when your hands are dry.Ugly: What a Pain to Pair. I switch between devices and these things just don't like it. They will stay connected to a previous device and must be manually disconnected in settings before they will pair with new device. Then, sometimes, they don't pair. I'm trying different ways to try and overcome this. We'll see.Thoughts: Worth the price as an inexpensive way to replace my old worn-out airpods. Time will tell, but so far I really like them and would buy them again. All the best.
