QC lacks when it comes to stitching I found if you pushed up from the opening in the bottom of the Spigen case you could ease out the AirPod case. However, this was not an issue. My son liked the simple design and wears these every day. They exist so you can have a cheap pair that you dont feel bad about throwing away because it *will* stop working in one ear less than year after buying it. I would absolutely recommend this speaker! This was a smoking good deal! I am beyond happy with my laundry rack! Paul Now, for the price, Id personally have preferred to (based on this headset) maybe pay a little bit less, but at the end of the day, it still beat out the other options (either for durability, features, or price).
