No fix for worst Bluetooth ever

Touch earbuds are trash - like so many others have noted, they constantly lose connection, & need to be re-paired. Connecting one earbud causes other to drop connection. Can’t update firmware because app requires both to be connected- but previous updates did not improve worst Bluetooth connectivity ever.

Melomania

Love the app it’s so easy to navigate and comes with pre made options for different types of music also I really like the melomania touch earbuds that I own

Great sound IF they stay connected

The Melomania 1+ were a birthday present and once I’d connected them (after numerous attempts) to my iPhone I was extremely happy with the sound. That was until they started randomly disconnecting or cutting out. Tried everything (even keeping my phone in my breast pocket for a signal) and just gave in and purchased a different brand. A friend has the same disconnecting issues with them as well, and it seems to be a common problem. Shame really as their sound is pretty good

Helpful

This app is always helpful for earbuds. Normally Cambridge Audio earbuds have a problem with connectivity, but with this app if you install framework updates many of them will be solved.

Atrocious software

Headphones are very good, excellent sound. The functionality and connectivity is a completely different issue. Wish I bought apple product, it would actually work properly

I am close to being 100% satisfied (Melomania 1+)

I am in love with just about everything about these earbuds. The fit is comfortable for me, the sound is great, the noise cancellation is good, the phone calls are always more than successful.. there’s just one thing that gets my goat, and it’s that the headphones like to randomly not only unpair, but make a loud feedback noise (depending on how much they’re turned up of course) for at least 3 seconds. This I would like to see resolved, it didn’t start happening until later on. I think it may have to do with me using one pair at a time, either with one in the case and one in my ear, or just both out and have one sitting outside the case nearby. I have noticed they even trip up when I for instance block an ear with my hand. So, there’s no doubt these earbuds are touchy when it comes to connectivity. But having said all that, I still am very happy with my purchase and I am happy to keep using them, I just would be even happier with a solution to the one issue I’ve noticed.

Only one is charging

Hi, my left earphone is not charging. The case is and the right earphone is but no matter how many times I plug the case in my left earphone has stayed at 0% for months now. I’ve cleaned it out and there’s nothing blocking it charging.

Close to perfection

The only gripe I have with the app is that it always asks for location upon opening, even though A: I have enabled it ‘When Using’, and B: Why does it need to? But these are minor gripes, for me the sound quality is what matters, and I’m very happy with what Cambridge Audio deliver.

Intermittent good sound

I’ve had these earbuds for probably at least 6 months. They sound pretty good and I can have different settings through the app for music or speech which is nice. I do have an issue with them staying connected however. I take a walk for an hour or two most days and when both are on they will disconnect from bluetooth. I finally counted the number of times and it was 14x within a 1.5 hour walk which is pretty typical. No matter if my phone was in my back pocket or shirt pocket or my hand or whether I was in a mall or outside. That is frustrating. The earbuds also don’t keep a charge much more than an hour anymore so I will put the weakest one in the case to charge for 10-15 minutes then switch. While using only one it doesn’t disconnect so I think it’s something in how they work together.

Hi bonniec.1. Thanks for your review. Please contact customer support via the in-app Technical Support page, as you may know, what you are experiencing isn't how the earphones are supposed to behave. We are here to help. Regards, The Melomania Team

Lots of control, so far no problems.

I’m still fairly new to the Melomania 1+ earbuds, but so far I am glad I bought them. The Melomania app gives a lot of control, with a 5 channel equaliser that allows you to save your own presets, and a user interface that seems sensible and uncluttered. All the control I need but no feature overload.

The ear buds are epic

Putting the app on one side I just wanted to say that I think the ear buds are epic. Crystal clear and good bass. The app seems to do the job fine too but most of all I love the product.

Son de haute qualité

Un son non coloré fidèle à la source, compatible AAC et autres; vraiment de la très haute qualité pour ce prix

Best in class

Lost my first pair of Melomanias and after trying other buds costing 4x as much - went and bought the new 1+ for £50 as they sounded better than all the others. Never had any pairing or software issues with either of my Melomanias. Software is logical and works well.
As they are built by an audiophile company you can expect the sound quality to be impressive and it is. Amazing for the price point. The app is an added bonus, equaliser works very well. Just awesome…

Rubbish App!

Lots of headphone dropout. Battery level indicator stuck on 95 & 100% Finder intermittent & unreliable. Very poor UI !!
Good ideas, poorly executed. What a shame…..in turn shattering the notion of a quality brand!

App is awful

Buds themselves are 4 stars but the app is just unusable, it won’t even recognize my Melomania’s.

Melomania Touch need firmware update asap

My Melomania touch’s are currently riddled with issues. They constantly disconnect from my phone and I have to re-pair them each time this happens. The app keeps resetting which touch controls I want on and off. A firmware update would surely fix these issues. Whenever a friend asks if I would recommend these headphones I always reply with a firm no.

Great sounds from earbuds and brilliant app to match

Been using these for around a year now and both the app and Melomania 1+ earbuds are superb. Just ordered a second pair so that I always have a pair with me.

Terrible earphones

Melomania + are the worst most unreliable earphones I’ve ever owned. Constantly disconnecting and eventually failing to work at all. I am now on my fourth pair in less than a year. They don’t offer a refund after 30 days and just send another pair of their useless faulty earphones, I’ll be sending this pair back asap. Oh and before tech support replies to this comment I’ve updated the firmware, fully charged the earphones etc etc .

Superb!

Just needs a balance control to get 5* from me!
