Yes, simply remove one earbud from the charging case while the other is charging.
If the earbud has not previously been connected to your device, manually select the earbud from the list of available devices to pair.
When connecting to a mobile device for the first time, the right side is the primary earbud by default, and the left side is the secondary earbud. The primary earbud connects with your device and transfers signals to the secondary earbud (including after resetting).
Ways to switch:
1. Place either earbud into the charging case. You can keep using the other one.
2. If either one of the earbuds is out of battery and powered off, then you can still use the other earbud.
3. If you want to switch back to stereo mode, just take the other earbud out of the charging case to automatically enter stereo mode. If this fails, forget the Bluetooth pairing record on your device, reset the earbuds (see "How do I reset Life A1?" ), and try again.

The way that you wear your earbuds and the seal of the earbuds you use can affect the bass. Also, if the input audio doesn't have much bass, it will also affect the bass performance.
If the bass is not strong enough for you, test out the different sizes of EarTips and AirWings that come with the earbuds to ensure you're using the best size for your ears. You can also test different types of music to see if it helps.
Operation
Yes, you can adjust the volume via the earbuds. Press the right earbud once to turn up the volume and press the left earbud once to turn the volume down.

I love using my Soundcore Life A1 earbuds as my daily driver for working remote from home. While there is not a mic in them, they easily replace wearing a headset all day.
Despite how much I enjoy using them, apparently my ADHD forgetful self forgot to remove them from my pants today. In trying to stay on top of my household tasks I ran the pants that still had my earbuds in them through not only the wash, but also a complete drying cycle.
To my utter shock, they still work as though absolutely nothing happened. I don't know what Soundcore is builing their electronics out of, but wow. Where so many other earbuds would have been damaged by my forgetfulness, Soundcore Life A1 took it like a champion and kept going. Suffice to say, I will be doing to Soundcore if I need any other audio peripherals since they can stand the test of time and my own failings.
Well done guys.
