    great earphones - TERRIBLE CASE

    • Written by from toronto

    43 of 46 people found this useful

    don't get me wrong - i LOVE the headphones, for the price - the are great. but why provide a case if its completely irritating to put back in???

    i travel a lot and always put away my earphones in a case - i was actually excited that these new earpods came with their own - but unfortunately it takes a good couple minutes of finagling to squeeze them back in.

    not the best design. not trying to be picky - but hey, if you're gonna provide a nice little case - make it so i can put it back in easily and efficiently.

    They fit as if they were part of the human body. Finally I can wear earphones that fit with total stability, don't cause pain and give engulfing sound. Absolut confort sound!

    Too big

    Well made earbuds would give 5 stars if they were smaller or came in multiple sizes. They are too big to fit well into my ears comfortably.

    I've just got these earphones, and I can tell that sound is much better than the previous generation of Apple earphones, bass leves are enhanced and they are more confortable to wear.

    These headphones are a huge step up from the previous headphones Apple made. They fit comfortably in you ear while creating a beautiful bass sound. I would argue that they are the same quality as bose in ear headphones. Definitely worth the 30 bucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Simply amazing. The microphone is honestly my favorite feature, everyone I've talked to says they hear me perfectly, and I don't have to actually hold anything up to my ears; freeing my hands up for other things like homework or eating

    Sound Great, but not in the gym.

    • Written by from San Jose

    First off, audio quality is a 5 (I am an audio engineer by education). Keep in mind that the low end has good thump, but there is no sustained low end like a bass (You can't really expect this from in/on ear headphones anyway.) I actually listened to a few old favorites with huge grin on my face as it was a very good listening experience.

    No on to why I rated these headphones only a 3. I was excited to take these to the gym and put them to the real test. Instant fail. These are the first pair of headphones I have owned that actually fell out of my ear. The problem for me was the right ear. The reason the right ear only is (I believe) the volume dongle. The weight of this is just enough to pull the earpod out of my ear. The other problem is that since the audio comes out of the side of the earpod, when it gets even slightly dislodged, there is a big drop in volume. Every 20 seconds I was pushing the right ear back in and adjusting it to try to even it out.

    Overall I am very sad, because I love the sound quality and overall comfort of the earpods, but I primarily wanted them for the gym and they just didn't work for me. I think a fix for this would be if they had a tackier materiel on the earpod or maybe a cover that can go overtop to fit more snug into ears.

    If this problem doesn't happen to you, then you have yourself an amazing pair of $30 headphones.

    The ergonomic new feel is amazing! Feel like no other headphones I've worn. I'm not very picky on sound quality but these headphones provide beyond what I would expect out of $30. The remote and mic is also a great addition that I use frequently. Thanks for revolutionizing the way I listen to music!

    Can't Beat the Value of these Ear Buds

    Fit and finish is every bit Apple excellence. Sound is right up there too. The price may be what's moving my opinion but I feel like I got something for almost nothing.

    These EarPods are the most comfortable and acoustic headphones I have ever tried! The old Apple earphones never worked for me, neither did the in-ear earphones. These have the best of both providing the best sound with no seal like the in-ear ones. They don't hurt my ears and the sound it provides is amazing! Perfect for the price to (30$)

    For the past 3 years, I have been under the impression that the old earphones were halfway decent. I thought that only super expensive headphones like Beats could deliver on crisp high performance sound. I just wanted to say that the Earpods blew away my expectations. The sound is crisper and the bass is unbelievable. Now really great sound can come with a $30 price tags.

    Pros: Wonderful Bass
    Larger volume control
    Volume control feels more durable
    Dont hurt after long period of wearing

    Cons- Even though the new design is very comfortable. It can be yanked out easier. They stay in well with regular use. But a sharp tug on the cord will pull them out of your ears. Not a big problem
