No shedding got on them. Its GREAT! One small qualm I have is that there is a bit of noise coming from the right side earphone that isnt too audible when music is playing but I do notice it. The lever backs seems iffy at best and there was already some tarnish on the inside of one. It doesnt serve a purpose I just find that funny. ? When plugged in to charge, there is an LED next to the micro USB port that glows green. Only thing that user need to plug in the outlet and the USB-C cable is plug in the charger before the user need to plug in the phone. The sound quality is there, you will get your ups, mid, lows. I use mine wired or with my Bluetooth receiver. It has the perfect balance between size and weight, regardless of hand sizes and DPI references.
