I ordered the Gemini in early October. And Devialet charged my card at that time. Usually, items aren’t charged until they ship. Particularly, when it takes 3 months to ship. I received them last week. The setup was not smooth. They neglected to tell you to remove the little plastic cover over the charging areas of the earbuds before setup. Even with those removed, pairing with my iPhone 12 Pro was hit or miss. Finally it paired. Then there was a software update. After the update, sounded great. The noise cancellation in “plane” mode is superior to Apple AirPods Pro. Unfortunately, the buds failed to keep charged eve when in the case of hours with the case connected to power source. Buds would run out of battery after a few minutes of use. Bluetooth connection was unreliable. Case felt flimsy and excessively large. Placing the buds in your ear makes you accidentally press the large buttons on the buds inadvertently. Contacted Devialet via email support. After a week with these expensive, useless earbuds that sound great- but don’t reliably work, I requested a full refund. I have two gold phantoms that sound great but drop out all the time. I was not going to be fooled twice. Save your money and skip these. They are not ready for use.
When a company charges a premium for electronics, the items must be rock solid in use and of good build quality. Gemini will tarnish Devialet’s reputation, if that has not occurred already. That is my one week experience with Gemini. What a shame for them.
