The Audio-Technica ATH-CKR7TW sound neat, are well crafted, and have a good look. But the lack of touch controls or the looping of external noise through the internal microphone (Hear-Through Technology) makes the in-ears look a bit old-fashioned.

Airbuds are one of the preferred items when it comes to listening devices today, but it does receive a certain level of ridicule from some. Despite the reactions they've been receiving, Airbuds are still a big hit, leaving the premium audio to respond.
Audio-Technica built the CKR7TW earbuds for sound, but forgot about usability
Open; detailed sound; Impressive low-bass response; Six-hour battery life; aptX and AAC support
Chunky design; Markedly short on features; Terrible video sync issues over aptX
Overall, I think the ATH-CKR7TW is a great first entry for Audio Technica in high-end true wireless scenes. There isn't many of products in this class, with the greatest competitor being the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless and Master & Dynamic MW07, both offer their own take for audiophile market.
Great build quality and is a well polished product
Limited functionality compared to other TWE
The Audio-Technica ATH-CKR7TW are a decent stab at what is a burgeoning area for earphones. The touch controls are responsive and there's a big battery life available, especially compared to rivals.
Comfortable; Great charging case; Intuitive design
Slightly chunky; No voice control
