    VERY cheap build quality

    I've owned now 2 of these since november and in the course of 3 months they've both broken in the exact same way, the metal connector that plugs into your device is EXTREMELY WEAK and broke in half when the cable got tugged. Obviously I've seen headphone wires fray and plastic parts get bent/cent, but never the metal connector breaking in halve! TWICE!!!!!!

    And the second time the connector got stuck inside my macbooks headphone port so now I can't use any audio whatsoever. Hopefully the "geniuses" will be able to fix it. But I'm not happy at all. Apple's quality is plummeting like it's stock prices

    These are great quality earphones. They fit nicely in the ear. Also. they've been in the washing machine twice and they still work great!

    The best $29.99 I've ever spent. A dramatic improvement over the old earbuds. Not only in sound but also with the mic/volume buttons: they're slightly larger and have more positive tactile feeling. The sound is... inspiring, chills down the spine good. I did find they slipped out of my ears - actually only my right ear, so I put some Belkin foam covers on them. Now they are simply dreamy, I couldn't be happier.

    I love this product. I had gotten the Itouch 5 gen and it had came with the cheap version of these earpods which had no mic or remote. So at a price as low as this I said why not. I saw that it had gotten good reveiws and wanted to try it out myself. I really love how the bass is better, and the sound is louder then the apple ear buds.
    It fits perfectly into my ear and keeps most of the background noise out. I love havingthe remote so I can change songs without having to open my itouch, and I cant even see the mic but I know its there cause siri hears me.
    (now for the cons) There really isn't a huge con with the ear pods but there are somethings that could be changed about them. After 2 hours of listening to music my ears start to hurt that just might be a friendly reminder to do something else). The one thing I hate about it the most is that it collects ear wax. since the place where it shoots the music into your ear has a hole it will go inside it making it really hard to clean out. Usally I get it out with a cotten swab but since it dose this I don't like letting other people use my own earpods.
    So overall they are great to use but not perfect. Definently worth for $30. :)

    Great sound if they fit your ears

    These earphones have a quirky design. I typically use bud style earphones and they fit me the best. But if I wear the left earpod into the right ear and right into the left ear, they fit me quite well (not for hours use, as they start hurting a little). The previous Apple earphones were a disgrace to sound but they felt more comfortable. Not sure why they didn't keep the rubberized edges on the earpods. Alright, enough about the fit. If they fit you, then read ahead...

    The sound is phenomenal. And by phenomenal, I mean faithful and crisp. The bass isn't overpowering but punchy, mids are present and the highs are not shrieking in your ears. For someone looking for a great earphones pair (non bud style), Apple earpods should be tried!

    Just OK

    Dont expect much from this earpods, its just ok..
    Highly Disappointed........
    Apple's Itunes sound quality sucks(never liked it, no bass jut loud sound) so dont use this earpods with any of the apple device.
    I played it on my PC with windows media player, it sounds ok for 29 $ ear phone.
    My suggestion if u have options then dont buy it go for others.

    works for me

    • Written by from Temecula

    The work great for me! Super good quality and i can barely feel them in my ear! They dont keep the sound plugged that well though, so if ur sitting next to some with the volume up they will hear what your listening to.

    Listening to these is like flooring a Ferrari, pedal to the metal, down a huge open road. Amazing and comfortable.

    These headphones are much better than the old headphones. There is bass with a great sound quality. I use these more than my skullcadys. (witch by the way are not all that good.)

    Great Product!!

    • Written by from Peachtree City

    First of all, they feel GREAT in your ear. I had them in for about 3 hours and they didn't hurt at all. The sound is AMAZING too. The bass sounds like a beast. They're great for $30, but I would like to see them for $20 or $25. Great Product!!

    THE BEST YET

    Great sound. Love the noise canceling. They fit perfect in your ear for long periods of time when at work and such. Love the remote mic. Worth every penny!

    This is the best headphones i ever used because the old ones would only be used for certain amount of monthz an one side of the headphone dies. The newer ones i use is incredible and it has awesome base so i always use it for concentration and also when i ride bmx i more focused. I haven't had a problem with it an its been 4 months and haven't had no issue yet so I'm getting these from now on.. Thanks for the product..

    While allegedly giving inferior sound quality, the previous Apple earphones at least fitted my ears, admittedly with a little bit of twisting. These just fall out.

    Best 30 dollars spent on headphones

    • Written by from Orlando

    The old pair sounded like that two dollar pair u get when flying and this new pair is better than my iBeats I have which quite frankly are horrible and not worth the 100 bucks I spent . I use these for everything phone calls music listening. The only complaint I have is the cord apple uses like most cords the memory if u will in the cord remembers all the twists and always tangles when I use them and put my phone the cord tangles and some times the cord shortens an they pull from my ears other than that they're awesome

    Don't Fall Out of Ears, But Hurt

    • Written by from Woodinville

    These headphones are way better than the older ones, but after wearing them for 20 minutes or so they start to hurt, but if you take them out for about 5 seconds and put them back it won't hurt your ears anymore.
    Other than that these headphones are great, and they don't fall out of your ears.
