Reviews for Apple EarPods with Remote and Mic

they broke within the first week the 3mm jack snapped well bent and is not fixable but before that they were great just how i expected but they broke really quick where as the old ones went through a washing machine a survived

I really like the sound quality, but it kinda hurts my ears

The Ipod that most need the remote is the 3rd Generation Ipod Shuffle and it doesnt work! Even the paper manual states that it will work, but it doesn't. The sound is incredible though.

These headphones are amazing! I can't listen to music without them anymore. I got a pair with my New Ipod Touch and I simply could not be happier. But then again, i could. After about a week of ownership, the left one started making a buzzing sound. Distorting music and vocals coming out of it. If i take it out and just kind of tap it a bit on the sides it goes away. But i feel as if its affecting performance. 3 out of 5 for faulty pod, but it doesn't happen very often.

If cupping your hands over your ears while running wasn't both awkward to see and difficult to master, then these headphones would be perfect. The sound quality rivals anything I've ever put in my ears, but they just don't stay in my ears long enough to enjoy the beautiful sound. I suppose couch potatoes will benefit greatly while those with slightly more active lifestyles will need to buy those little spongy earpod covers to help these headphones stay in their heads.

I run and Earpods keeps falling out of my ear. Also they bounce and hit my small earrings and make clicking sounds. I prefer the old earphones that came with iPod except that they don't have the remote control and mic.

These may be good for everyday traveling, but definitely not for running. They tend to pop out of the ears and within a month of purchasing them the right ear bud goes in and out. This is probably because I used them while running on treadmill. They aren't everything that they were advertised to be. However, I did enjoy listening to music through when traveling.

A lot of bass... Really, A LOT. Seriously, where are all other frequencies? Had to turn on treble booster to hear some high-pitched guitar solos. Mids are also poor. Well, for $29,00 you can't expect more, I suppose, but in-ear headphones were better. They fit good in my ears though. Better than in-ear headphones. This gives them 3 stars.

The sound that comes out of these phone is pretty good, certainly not as good as the professional phones I used on my job but my audio monitoring earphones cost ten times more. My big complaint is comfort and retention. The Apple EarPods are uncomfortable and fall out of my ears with the slightest head movement. A true audiophile will scrap these phones immediately, or better yet, give them to a friend with an old iPod. Then get a pair of mid priced over the ear headphones. They will sound better, block external noise better, and will stay put. The earphones Sony used to supply with the old Walkman are an adequate substitute for the EarPods.

The old iphone/ipod ear buds BARELY fit in my ears. I could only use them for about 30 minutes before my ears started throbbing. ugh. but these are like TWICE as big/thick. I can't even fit them in my ear so they kinda just rest right there. I have to have the volume turned way up because they don't fit right. The sound quality is much better from the old ones. I'm just annoyed that I can still hear noises around me with these. I can tell that ergonomically they would be amazing if I could put them in my ear properly. I just wish they made multiple sizes as these are literally jumbo sized.
