Reviews for Apple EarPods with Remote and Mic

I have used the earpods for a week now and I have to say they are much better than the previous apple earphones. They fit perfectly, exellent sound quality. I surely recommend them to anyone who is thinking about buying earphones, for only 29euro they are perfect.

they're no high end headphones. I have no idea why people keep saying they're better than their high ends. What high ends are you listening to? I have the Shure SE535 and they're are arguably the best inears ever created. Also very expensive. But Apple's headphones don't even come close. So whatever "highend" you were listening to before, go get some new, real ones.

Earbuds are little bigger in size of both ends of earbuds ,and doesnt fit realy proper and sometimes fall down may be coz they are not in ear and the dont have rubber buds ,but sounds really great its sound quality is as good as i have bose ie1 for mobile.

While these are the best headphones I have ever used in terms of clarity and great bass, the fit is something to be desired. Apple advertised these as fitting a variety of ear types, but they do not fit my ears. As soon as I put them in, they fall out. I had some of my friends put them in and they had no issues. It appears as though certain people, including myself, do not have ears like those that Apple tested on. I wish Apple would develop in-ear versions of these, since those seem to be the only type that will stay in my ears.

These ear pods are so great. They are a lot better than those Apple ear pods in the past. Excellent!!!

PRO:
The new Apple EarPods are absolutely better than their predecessor. It has been a long time coming for Apple to redesign their earphones and they have done a superb job. The fit is snug and does not feel that they will fall out. The range of sound (high, mid, low) is smooth and they even produce bass. The remote buttons are larger now, including the middle pause button, which makes volume control/song control a lot more manageable. Now, these are not to be compared to high end headphones or in ear phones. These are definitely a great pair for the $29.99 price, a nice upgrade if you still use the original Apple earphones.

CON:
They are not noise cancelling. For many this may not be an issue but ambient outside noise does require a user to ensure the volume is cranked.

Have an iPhone 4s so I can't, for a bit, order the iPhone 5...but I wanted to join the party. The earpods are very comfortable in my ears. Music sound quality is the BEST I've ever heard in an ear bud. Phone quality was great.

Lost a star because the tiny clip that is on the older headsets to cinch the ear wires closer is not part of EarPod?

And I sure would like to be able to mute the microphone during a call from the remote. Will Apple >ever deliver this??

Took a star off because I felt like the bass was just too rich for my taste. But yes, the remote is really something special. I love how I can feel the click better and it fits better in my hands.

I do feel that Apple made a significant improvement compared to their other ear buds, however I do not like the feel of them in my ear. I like a more secure and snug fit on headphones and this design makes it impossible. When I was wearing them and bent down they fell right out. Still, the sounds is great, and the cable is strong and secure. I don't feel like they would break easily like other $30 ear buds would. Still searching for that perfect pair.

Got these with my new ipod touch. It is a clear improvement over the classic we were used to since the first ipod. They are the most comfortable earbuds i have ever used. They just fit in the right spot into my ears. Sound is not bad. Could definately be a lot better. There is actually some base now unlike the previous model. I am sure though that the sound could be a lot better. I expected better from a model 3 years in the works. I would not recommend spending 30 bucks for it yet, as a free pair of earbuds with your new ipod, they are very pleasant and actually much better than any free pair of earphones i ever recieved before with a music device.
