Love the thumb restClutch/Paddle (sniper) thumb button piece feels GREAT to pressSide buttons are larger than viper buttons. sadly neither of the Sony earbuds have that. I love this pad! That?s the cost of a pretty nice stereo system, or at least well on your way to purchasing one. Ive had it skip songs, pause itself, and shutdown all because it got some sweat on the control face. The sandal was comfy when I had it. This case is exactly what I needed, something to protect the not-so-durable charging case the earbuds come with. Like cheap plastic. My husband got me some AirPods for my birthday and had the little skull put on by Apple. I found the charging mechanism to be a little counter intuitive; it isn?t always clear from the LED lights whether charging is taking place.
