FYI, There is a 50% off coupon on Amazon for the true wireless ones making it $25 which is about the same price as just buying it on Meh if you don’t have free shipping. Plus you have the option to return it.
@teddycyclops And the one review is five stars! And in German! No idea what this means!
Bass!
Ich bin ein absoluter Bass Liebhaber und bin daher mit diesen Kopfhörern sehr zufrieden. Für alle die Bässe nicht so mögen oder nicht so ausgeprägt sollten definitiv zu anderen Kopfhörern greifen. Haptik ist gut und die Kopfhörer sitzen gut in meinen Ohren.

Bass!
I am an absolute bass lover and am therefore very satisfied with these headphones. For those who don’t like bass that much or not so pronounced, you should definitely use other headphones. The feel is good and the headphones sit well in my ears.
Hey Everyone. We had an error on the 2-packs that was preventing them from being purchased. It appears to have been fixed, and you should be able to add them now.
I already regret my purchase (not really). A few review I read said these were a decent purchased for $50+. So I caved. My first pair of true wireless.
Bought half-asleep without reading much. 10 hours play time is better than the others I’ve considered so I’m good with my zombie-buy /giphy creative-overwrought-platypus
@canuk Schrödinger’s delivery: you won’t know if you got standard (free) or standard (+$1.99) until delivery. Right now it’s both. I’m cracking myself up here.
@kevbo9000 Same here. Got mine yesterday, tried to charge them and got the 5 red blinking lights. Took them off and put them back on the charger for at least 3 seconds, about 7 times total. Then they started charging. Both pairs I ordered needed this.
@kevbo9000 thank you. i was about to ragequit on this product 15mins after opening it yesterday. after 7 or 8 lifts and resets they started charging. What a crap design! But now that I know theres a workaround, hopefully not a big deal.
@kevbo9000 came here to post this same link. Thanks for sharing. This happened to me too. 5 quick red flashes means they can’t charge. 2 quick red flashes followed by slow “breathing” glow means charging. Took 10-15 attempts before it would charge for me.
Jesus the support for these is trash… If anyone is having problems with the true wireless buds, I can solve two of them so far.
Since I’m sure this is why these are on meh, hopefully these don’t just did entirely stop working in a few weeks. The fact that the battery problem happens suggest their rechargeable batteries are already very bad (falling below charging voltage).
Problem 1- earbud doesn’t turn on, flashes red when put in case but doesn’t charge. (as someone else already posted I’m just restating this one) the battery is too low to charge so you have to try to “jump” start it by putting it into the case, wait a few seconds (until the case lights turn off) then take it out and put back in again. Each time the charger will feed it current for a few seconds then give up, eventually it will have enough to keep going.
Problem 2- cannot pair both earbud simultaneously. This was super annoying. To fix this problem I figured out there’s a full reset of the buds… Forget the buds on your Bluetooth so they don’t try to reconnect. Now for each bud do this:
turn off (hold button for 5 seconds) and see the quick red light flash
reset by holding the button for about ten to twenty seconds. The light will go through these phases: solid white, red/white flashing (pair mode), white flashing, red flashing, off
After they’re both reset and off, turn on the right earbud only (hold 3sec until the white light turns on, release before the red/white flashing pair mode).
The light should flash quickly white.
Turn on the left one now, again don’t go into pair mode. This one should start flashing white quickly too.
Wait a few seconds, they will connect to each other. When that happens the right earbud will switch to pair mode (red/white flash), the left will continue to flash white but at about half the rate. That indicates they are linked.
Finally, connect your Bluetooth.
Also, in case they sell these again and anyone checks back here for reviews/information… The description meh has up is STILL WRONG - the true wireless earbuds are NOT IPX7. They’re clearly labeled IPX5 on the packaging. Really sucks because I have plenty of IPX5 headphones and they don’t last with how much I sweat that was a huge part of why I bought them.
Additionally, they don’t show what these come with - they come with a USB cable of course, and some rubber adapter things of two types
the typical ear-hole sealing dome shaped rubber things (so these earbuds don’t let sound leak in very well, not great for running if you want to be aware of surroundings)
an extra set of the little wing things. these are identical for me, so I don’t know why they included a second set since they’re not different sizes. And I wish they DID include different sizes.
These are stable when worn with the right ear-hole size rubber things, because that kinda holds it up to your ear and the wing keeps it from twisting its way out. I tried to use the smaller ear-hole ones on purpose to let sound through, this lead to them falling out… Especially when looking down, like when you’re looking at your phone. Or…other things. Suffice to say one of them missed the toilet by a few inches.
@bobthenormal thank you. I couldn’t figure out why they wouldn’t turn on. I guess that’s why the ones I purchased from mono price had covers over the charge contacts.
@bobthenormal Thank you!! I charged the case, assumed the earbuds were charging, but they won’t pair, won’t reset, won’t force-pair… fingers crossed this will work!
@bobthenormal Thank you! Yes, 3 years later and I’m finally using these. This thread solved the problem. Took me 18 times flicking them on the contact points to get them to start charging.
Love these deals but bummed MEH does not deliver pizza , i would lose like 20 LBS due to how incredibly SLOW they are to processing and delivery times !
@ztirffritz Nope. Tried multiple devices, tried too many times to count, followed instructions, tried manually, enlisted my 8yr old and teenagers for help. They said “Sorry mom, you got ripped off. Get Raycon like us.” First dud I ever got from MEH.
@jfalciano@username I did manage to get these to turn on an pair finally. It turns out that the battery in the earbuds is likely too discharged to register. Connecting the earbuds repeatedly causes them to take a tiny charge until eventually they have enough charge to register and begin proper charging.
These did not work. They will not pair to anything. Followed instructions exactly. Tried to pair manually. So disappointed. First did I ever hit from MEH. Sadly was a waste of money.
Very pleased with Meh.com. I had a minor problem, and they took care of my problem very quickly. I feel customer service is the most important with any company. Thanks Meh.com

@cranky1950 U certainly did!
@cranky1950 you could move to west coast its only 9pm here lol
meh.
That’s not my bud, no matter how braven it is.

@teddycyclops And the one review is five stars! And in German! No idea what this means!
Spoilers:
Guess I did have some idea after all.
@teddycyclops The ones on Amazon are IPX5, the ones here on Meh are IPX7. That’s a big difference, at least in theory. In real life, Idk.
@stinks @teddycyclops All your bass are belong to us.
@stinks @teddycyclops @tweezak What does fish have to do with headphones? And why do I care if the German guy likes it?
Oh. Never mind. It’s not bass. It’s bass. Got it.
@stinks @teddycyclops @tweezak A throwback to the earliest of the internet tubes.
50% coupon on Amazon. For 5 bucks I don’t have to wait a month for delivery in a bashed-up Meh box. Still looks crappy, tho.
Well… Send hope for me mehers… Hope that these don’t end up in the pile of meh headphones that were junk and yet I continue to take chances trying…
@bobthenormal actually decent reviews! See my link below for review at Android Central
These true wireless ones actually get decent reviews…surprisingly for Meh:
https://www.androidcentral.com/braven-flye-sport-rush-review
Darn - I would have gone for the wired because I’m tired of my true wireless ones slipping out of my ear when I get sweaty doing yard work.
@bwiderski the wired is working now.
Hey Everyone. We had an error on the 2-packs that was preventing them from being purchased. It appears to have been fixed, and you should be able to add them now.
Sorry about the inconvenience.
Nowhere can you find the playing time listed for either style. Guess that says something.
@illumin8r It’s 10 hours on a charge, but I can’t find how many charges for the huge charging case.
@illumin8r @y0himba
The charging case provides 26 additional hours for 36 hours of total play time.

$129 on Braven’s website. https://braven.com.au/collections/headphones/products/braven-earbuds-flye-sport-rush
Dammit, lets add another pair of earbuds to my collection… spongy-parasitic-silk
I already regret my purchase (not really). A few review I read said these were a decent purchased for $50+. So I caved. My first pair of true wireless.
/giphy burly-tropical-sloth
I’ve decided to get a membership to see how many things I actually buy. If it makes a difference. So far I’m two purchases in.
Bought half-asleep without reading much. 10 hours play time is better than the others I’ve considered so I’m good with my zombie-buy /giphy creative-overwrought-platypus
![Choices, choices][1]
Did the engineers take the weekend off?
[1]:
@canuk the question remains: will I get this by Christmas?
@canuk Schrödinger’s delivery: you won’t know if you got standard (free) or standard (+$1.99) until delivery. Right now it’s both.
I’m cracking myself up here.
@canuk That happened to me too. Weird. If you actually program a radio button right, there’s no possible way to have both highlighted.
Ok, so my current wireless headphones last 20 hours of continuous use. It doesn’t even say how long these ones last on a single charge.
I’ve never seen an order stay in processing this long - anyone else seeing it stuck in processing?
@banksnld same here.
@banksnld yeah me as well
@banksnld My son just asked me to check on them…he gets anxious when he spends his own money
I’ll let him know others are asking the same question…
@dajmom03 Mine went from processing to basically saying they were in Indiana two days ago. Looks like another PB screwup.
If you get the true wireless and pairing doesn’t work, you may need to take them on and off the charger a few times because the batteries are so low that the charger doesn’t yet recognize them. https://support.zagg.com/hc/en-us/articles/360040766672-My-BRAVEN-FLYE-SPORT-RUSH-earbuds-won-t-charge-in-their-case
@kevbo9000 Same here. Got mine yesterday, tried to charge them and got the 5 red blinking lights. Took them off and put them back on the charger for at least 3 seconds, about 7 times total. Then they started charging. Both pairs I ordered needed this.
@EffinMojo @kevbo9000 Damn, mine haven’t even shipped yet. Meh always takes forever for me.
@kevbo9000 thank you. i was about to ragequit on this product 15mins after opening it yesterday. after 7 or 8 lifts and resets they started charging. What a crap design! But now that I know theres a workaround, hopefully not a big deal.
@dalex No problem! I really wanted them to work out, so I guess that gave me some patience. It took some time to figure out.
@EffinMojo @kevbo9000 EDIT Never mind… also had to add/remove a bunch of times (at least 7). They’re charging when the red light slowly dims on/off.
@kevbo9000 came here to post this same link. Thanks for sharing. This happened to me too. 5 quick red flashes means they can’t charge. 2 quick red flashes followed by slow “breathing” glow means charging. Took 10-15 attempts before it would charge for me.

Overall… It’s meh.
@bobthenormal thank you. I couldn’t figure out why they wouldn’t turn on. I guess that’s why the ones I purchased from mono price had covers over the charge contacts.
@bobthenormal It’s literally impossible for me to thank you enough.
The fact that they don’t just have this exact comment in their instruction manual OR support site is a travesty.
I had both issues… If I didn’t see this comment there is no way I would be using these things right now.
Thanks again for the help, it is very much appreciated.
@bobthenormal Thank you!! I charged the case, assumed the earbuds were charging, but they won’t pair, won’t reset, won’t force-pair… fingers crossed this will work!

meh, you gotta stop selling half-assed gadgets where its known a certain % of it just won’t work. it’s tedious.
or disclose it’s like a FUKU, it might work, it might not up front.
Love these deals but bummed MEH does not deliver pizza , i would lose like 20 LBS due to how incredibly SLOW they are to processing and delivery times !
Anyone actually get these to pair?
@ztirffritz Nope. Tried multiple devices, tried too many times to count, followed instructions, tried manually, enlisted my 8yr old and teenagers for help. They said “Sorry mom, you got ripped off. Get Raycon like us.” First dud I ever got from MEH.
What is the deal with the charging? Mine have been plugged in all day long and still not turning on?!?
@jfalciano check the comments above, for mine i had to seat/re-seat multiple times to kick start the charging
@jfalciano @username I did manage to get these to turn on an pair finally. It turns out that the battery in the earbuds is likely too discharged to register. Connecting the earbuds repeatedly causes them to take a tiny charge until eventually they have enough charge to register and begin proper charging.
Have you received yours yet? Mine supposedly has arrived in NJ already but magically resurfaced back in TX. Geez.
These did not work. They will not pair to anything. Followed instructions exactly. Tried to pair manually. So disappointed. First did I ever hit from MEH. Sadly was a waste of money.
Very pleased with Meh.com. I had a minor problem, and they took care of my problem very quickly. I feel customer service is the most important with any company. Thanks Meh.com
Finally figured them out.
it’d be nice if i could use just one, since the other stopped working…
