Apple Earphones with Remote and Mic

Good But do fall apart eventually.

Written by DH from Bude

I have had these ear-phones for about 6 months now and I have had no problems except the rubber frame stuck around the metal speaker has fallen off. Becides that these are really good headphones.

I am even more pleased that they work with my I-pod touch 2nd genaration's Skype app and voice memo app.

These are the prefect replacement to the old ear-phones that came with the I-pod touch (or any other Ipod) and i recommend them to every I-pod user.

Thanks for reading.

Nice quality sound using them for my PSP at the moment. Trouble with falling out of my ears and my old pear fell to pieces, still very good earphones but a bit expensive for what you get

Horrible

The worst headphones that can come with such an awesome product. it won't stay in my ears, sound quality is ultra poor and everyone else can hear what i'm listening to.

Quite a few times i've been told to turn them off at libraries coz the sound leaks out!!

the remote and the mic is a neat idea though :)

awful

Written by WB from watford

25-Oct-2009

every apple product ive ever bought with the free , normal heaphones i just put back in the box and avoid like the plague.

they're not comfortable to wear.
they leak very badly.
when i'm near someone else using them on the tube or train, they leak very badly and its easy to hear what others are listening to...if i notice someone with them i usually travel to another carriage in the hope i can longer hear the tinny music leaking.

generally, i have about 3 or 4 of earphones from various apple products and they never get used .

the only positive points are they have a mic, and remote functions.

Review of Apple Earphones

Written by DH from Brighton

02-Oct-2009

After buying some new iPod earphones directly from the apple store in Brighton, i thought it would be a good idea to share my views on them.

First of all, fro £21 just for simple or-earphones it may seem like a lot of money however, for that, customers can expect apple's unique headphone style, an inline remote with microphone and slightly better sound quality than the headphones bundled with the original iPod/iPhone.

The inline remote works very well as you don't have to keep on getting out the iPod/iPhone to change the track. This defiantly saves on a lot of battery life as the screen is never lit up. With the ability to pause, play, skip, previous and increase/decrease the volume, most of the functions are on the remote. however, before you buy these: i bought these for my iPhone 2g, and the volume changer doesn't seem to have an impact on the actual volume coming through. this maybe because of a faulty product, however i have heard other people having this issue so its unlikely to be a faulty product.

Finally, i believe that these earphones give slightly better performance than the the original phones. this is only a slight increment, however it is noticeable. there is deeper bass which is defiantly a welcomed addition. this performance increase however may because of the constant use my old earphones got over a 6 month period. Either way, i would still say that they are marginally better.

So, to sum up, i personally believe that these earphones are worth the £21 price tag, however if you want alot better quality than the originals then look at shure, bose or sennheiser phones. 4*

goodly rubbish

Written by SE from newport

21-Sep-2009

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)

Amazing headphones if you take care of them

Written by DB

16-Sep-2009

I got these headphones with the ipod shuffle 3rd gen and to start off the sound quality coming out of them was amazing. until I accidentally dropped them on the floor and my dog stepped on them and one of the earphones went loose a little bit so the bass rumbled it about so it made one side sound a bit rubbish. so if you buy them take care of them.

Just Perfect

Written by OM from Lyme Regis

13-Sep-2009

I know a lot of people have given a negative review to these earphones with remote and mic, "They are too short" or "There isn't enough bass" ok let me start with the short comment... How tall are all of these people! It goes from my pocket to my ears just fine with room to spare! They are fine. Now "No Bass" put the bass booster EQ on and... Ta dah. And lastly some people complain about them being badly made and don't last a long time... Well that's not true, I've had mine over a year now and they still look as good as new, treat your products with care and they will last you forever. In conclusion a great addition for my iPod touch, no more fumbling about with changing the volume or pausing, I can use Skype and other Mic apps, in all this is a well worth product to get, it's just what every iPod Touch user should have to start off with!

terrible headphones

Written by CH from London

11-Sep-2009

they work and then they break. I am now about to buy my third pair as I can't find any other headphones that work with the new shuffle. I will thereby have spend more money (excessively) on headphones than the shuffle itself. A complete rip-off.
Apple: please fix this.

Apple store advisers need more training on products!!

Written by RA from Manor Park

09-Sep-2009

I was advised that the headphones are compatabile for all iPods and iPhones, however the volume button on the headphones does not work on iPhone 3G, I had clearly asked the adviser to make sure that the headphones would be compatible with my iPhone, but was clearly advised wrong, I feel that apple store advisers should thoroughly be trained on all products and their compatabilty before advising customers to purchase the product.
