goodly rubbish

in my oppinion these are brilliant for the quality and the design looks ultra sweet, although they have a very short life excpectancy im on my fourth pair of headphones this year as i got my iphone on christmas.
but next time they break im never buying apple headphones, if you think about it thats alot of money spent where as you could just buy some senhiser ones or some ones that dont break as often, apple should really think about this so many of my freinds headphones are breaking and were all fed up :(
its the same with the iphone charging cable thats broken aswell, so has my freinds its rediculous and the price they charge...
to top it all of.. if you have an ipod shuffle (1st gen) and headphones and the dock happens to break, use common sence buy a new shuffle, youll save about £1 and get a free shuffle :)

like ive said, quality 5*
reliability 1*

im sorry about my whining but im sick and tired of apples weak cables
(p.s i do take care of my gadgets and cables)

Why dont they just last!?

Just like all apple headphones before them, these are great until they break. And that doesn't take long. I've taken good care of mine. Not used them too much. Kept them dry. In a case. But it's been not even two months and they've already got problems. On certain low base notes, one of the ear buds crackles ...Apple, I love your products and all, but take a hint! People like stuff to last more than a week!!! PLEASE DO SOMETHING! FOR THE LOVE OF CUSTARD, PLEASE!

I have bought 3 pairs of Headphones and they keep giving me distorted sound and I don't know why, they seem to be faulty at the bottom.

Good sound poor build

I think my pair lasted about three months before the sound completely cut out. So I bought some standard apple headphones which also sounded good, but now the rubber has come off them completely. Apart from that, they're fine. Too expensive though, so I think I'll buy some Sony ones for £9.99 instead. The last pair of those I had lasted about three years, and they sounded good!

Aaarrgh!!!!!

Sound quality very good. My remote doesn't control the volume! Busted - I bought it in Melbourne and was in Sydney by the time I used it.
It doesn't work with Apple remote/radio cuts out audio track. Doesn't work with slightly older iPods - I have the 160 Classic - also sound issues.
Not a very well thought thru product, why does Apple keep doing this?
