Apple In-Ear Headphones with Remote and Mic
stunning!!
Written by MH from moseley
14-Dec-2008
Just picked these up from the applestore in Brum today.
To clear things up, ALL features EXCEPT VOLUME CONTROL work fine with the original Iphone, pause, skip tracks, answer calls, microphone etc all work great, but you can;t control mic or headphone volume.
Fantastic clarity for receiving and talking during calls, a lot better than most bluetooth sets.
Real comfortable and secure fit, much more comfortable than any other phones I've used, and I've used about 10 different sets of phones over the last two years trying to find something that is comfortable and sounds great... and we have a winner!
The sound is fantastic, given that I usually listen on in-ear single driver phones that cost me £120, I really do love the sound from these. Great soundstaging, and the clarity of the top end mixed with the warm and rolling bottom end is great, the 5hz claim I think is pushing it! THESE ARE NOT BASS HEAVY!
I listen mostly to electronic and DNB, and although the bottom end is not that low and thumping, it is still very rich and warm, and very punchy with no distortion, but the level of clarity and detail you hear is amazing, you really can hear so much more detail in tracks than I was used too. Each element is very well defined, unlike the sharpness of some phones, or the mushiness of bass heavy sets, all elements are crystal clear here. I guess the dual drivers really work, hopefully the bottom end will pick up a bit once they're broken in.
Basically for the money, you simply can't beat these phones. Amazing sound quality, loving the extra hands free use, the controls are as simple as you can get and they are very well made. You'll be paying at LEAST double if not treble for the next cheapest dual driver phones on the market. So you really can't go wrong... just a shame they're still white, silver or black would have looked much nicer, especially considering the lack of any white in the current apple product range!!
Looks like Apple finally made a good set of earphones... shocking ;) …More600 of 693 people found this useful

Apple In-Ear Headphones with Remote and Mic
Starting to Appreciate
Written by CT from Bearsden
15-Dec-2008
Took a bit of getting used too, my ears had been conditioned to the Sennheiser CX300 in-ears, the Apple by comparison are noticeably flatter but more natural and very detailed. CX300s are bottom heavy, the Apple unit feels smooth up to the vocal presence range where it comes to life and towards the top end remains pretty sharp. I noticed overall good detail and separation, this should happen with two individual drivers handling different frequency ranges.
Earphones will always be subjective, people have different music tastes but Im really starting to appreciate these earphones and getting away from the artificial sound I had become accustomed too. The fact you have playback control and a mic built in and its barely visible is another winner. …More382 of 470 people found this useful

Superb headphones. High Quality, separation, clarity, taut bass, detailed treble. Excellent and well worth the money. Mic works well on iPhone 2G and 3G models.
Innovative case and ear plug holder.
5 Stars because they beat all the earphones at this price level and some above. …More372 of 459 people found this useful

Apple In-Ear Headphones with Remote and Mic
Good but not the best...
Written by JH from Købenahvn, Frederiksberg

You know that the sound is brilliant and good isolation for sound out comming.
But the "silicone" things that you put on the top of them, you know, they can fall off very easy, and here comes the problem: YOU CAN'T BUY NEW OF THEM!
It's very bad of Apple to not sell them separately if you loose them, and if you need to clean them, you've got a problem :-(
But worth to buy if you can keep those white things on :-) …More1 of 1 people found this useful

Apple In-Ear Headphones with Remote and Mic
very good set
Written by PV from London
13-Nov-2009
Don't be put off by comments about bass frequencies. it's not true, it's just the fact that the most of the people are used to cheap headphones which as we all know have beefed up bottom and bit on top. In-ears on the other hand are quite flat with very sweet mids and highs.
In fact, bass goes very deep, deeper than on Senn's MM50ip, is very accurate and detailed so if your recording has huge amount of bass frequencies in it, in-ears will reproduce them, if they're not there they simply won't 'add' them as cheaper alternatives do (and not only cheaper alternatives but quite a few of more expensive ones).
Will see how they perform after few weeks, after they burn-in. So far i'm quite impressed, didn't expect them to be as good. …More11 of 12 people found this useful

Are you able to stop/pause songs and use the mic for handsfree on the 3G iPhone?
- Asked by CP from Calgary
- 06-Oct-2009
Best Answer
Yes you can, when a call comes in it will automatically pause your music and allow you to press the middle grey button on the remote to answer the call, this will then activate the mic and allow you to take the call, once the call has ended, or you disconnect from the call your music will start playing where it left off, It's great! You can also pause your music at anytime by pressing the middle grey button on the remote. Hope this helped :) …More
