Compare to quality is lil bit pricey but cool ! For my use I found the battery life to be sufficient as I use it mostly to talk and listen to music when my hands are busy. Got a size 5, and was big for my kid. Pretty good sturdy case. Some were broken. I generally wear these while working around the house or doing errands around town and over the course of a week I still have not had to charge them. This fit the bill perfectly. Bottom hanging section is useless unless hanging shorts. Really enjoying this. if you just need something quick and dirty that sounds really good, get the Bose.
