Love them when in Arizona. Add H2O and stay away! IPX Rating 5? NOT EVEN CLOSE!
Pros: Mostly everything only when completely still and must be dry.
Cons: Horrible for activities if any possibility of sweating
I generally am a very positive person, often getting more excitable about audiophile related anything. I was so excited to buy the IFI GO Pods, that I purchased 2 sets of them, one for my home, walking, chillaxing as Im not a fan of wires, and the other for the gym.
I’ve reached out to Ifi a few occasions and though very friendly and polite are without a solution to deal with a very big problem they have. They market as IPX5 rating and that gym activity be promoted. Noooooooooo! Not even close.
after a huglet frustrating experience trying to update both of my ipod sets on Gaia, I finally updated what was to be the fix in the newest firmware update in I believe 1.54. I began my excitement looking forward to my workout the next day. The fix, quick tap 4 times to disengage the already far too sensitive touch buttons from being active. That was a bust,! Within 2 minutes of me sweating both ipods were seeming possesed! Having a mind all of their own, turning up, down , off, you name it it acted the function out. I’m also now without a left pod being operational in any state. Won’t turn on, indicate a charge, notta! I’m super bummed out as totally frustrated and now have 1 set inoperable and the other great for 80 year olds who at the very worst glisten in dry climates. Please help! At $700 CDN taxes in, I’m $1400 in and super pissed.

Grrrrrrrrrrr, I literally just went to try an updated firrmware downgrade if that makes sense. After a completely full charge I open the case and notta, all power depleted, the left bud still have no operable use as far as I can tell. I’m about ready to throw these things out

IFI…PLEASE GET YOUR POOP STRAIGHT! I’m embarrassed for you! THIS OR advertise accordingly and stop misleading people. Who likes wires? if portable use to you means sitting in an arid part of the word on a cosier all day then I suppose you nailed it!

You may need to start a claim and have them send you a new set. I downloaded thr latest gaia from the website, disconnected the go pods, and after several tries, was able to connect both and roll back the firmware. I spent hours doing it though. Just file the claim on the broken set. If the other set isn't broken, then make sure you download the latest gaia to install, and then download the older firmware from there and your other set should be fine. It's either 1.49 or 1.42.
