    My son loves his WorkTunes. Thank you for making these videos so I can repair them. The speaker wires got pinched and although we were able to patch them it wasn't a perfect solution. Now I am going to replace the wire with the help of your videos.😊

    My pair worked well for about a year and then the Micro USB port came loose and was rattling around inside the earcup. It meant that I could no longer charge. I was shocked to look up reviews of the set and see that this is a widespread problem, for many people it's this Micro USB flimsy connection that gives out. I am considering buying another pair because I don't know if there's any decent alternative, but I wish there was a way they could upgrade this connection or switch to USB-C

      @@_wormlet I see, well the only problem I've heard it the speaker getting scratchy in one ear. With all that I've bought ( a lot) I've never had a problem other than that. That's weird.

      The headband, gel ear seals and the sheepskin fur added, it increased the comfort.

    I'm on my second pair of Worktunes like you're working on. The first pair the female charging connection went inside the headset. This time it's the charging cable end that has come apart. And this second one, the automatic shutoff takes a long time to shut off, if it even does at all, where the first pair it was within 5 minutes or so. And pausing the music is fine, but trying to get it restarted often takes 3-5 times pushing the button. I'm debating if I should buy another pair or if there's a more dependable model out there.

      @@ButchHolladay my headsets are black with a yellow line around the earphones. Since the Bible or iTunes is what I listen too, I've not thought I wanted one with a radio or too fancy of a headset. I do wear glasses but as yet not thought gels were necessary. I think you said you sleep with them on sometimes, I don't, I use Bose ear buds. Luckily I saved the charging cord from my first set, but for some reason it's not giving me a great connection. It's also shorter than the second pair I bought. I did hear on your video that I can use a standard Android charging cord, so that's good.

    I have had my set of WorkTunes Connect for about 2 years now and I wear them almost every day for several hours. I love them. Recently however they started shutting off anytime the headphones get bumped, or when I put one side above my ear so I can hear things if I need to. My guess is that some connection is getting jostled when this happens, but I can't find anything in support forums to figure out how to fix it. Any ideas?
