Not really very good structure ed fit for the ear placement

These headphones sounded nice enough, though you won't be wowed by them. I like the fit well enough, though it would cause my ears to grow soar the first couple of weeks after extended use. I'm dissapointed in the longevity of the product though, as after only 6 months the left side has gone out (low volume, high noise) without any externally visible damage. Addiitonally, the cable is shoft for desk use, though more than long enough for fitness purposes. The mic was an unexpected plus, but not something I was looking for. I just don't feel I got enough out of them to justify the cost.

This Monster iSport Strive Earbud Headphones is not good.

The product was fine. I would definitely recommended to a friend.

Absolutely hated these most uncomfortable hard phones I have ever worn.

I bought these on a whim after ruining my ipod headphones; the Best Buy employee said these are the best band for your buck. Earbuds never seem to fit my ears, they always are falling out and breaking. I would normally not spend this much money on a pair of headphones, but MAN are they worth it! I even accidentally put these THROUGH THE WASHING MACHINE and they survived and still have a great sound. The cord is also flatter, so no more tangled cords like with regular headphones. No regrets here!

Pros: 1. Different sized ear bud covers. This came in handy since apparently one of my ears is larger than the other... 2. Mic so you can blab on the phone in your car. 3. They don't tangle as easily as iPhone ear buds (and they come with a case). 4. I can imagine these would be great if you're are a biker/skier/snowboarder that likes to listen to music but needs to be aware of your surroundings. Cons: 1. It took me a few tries to get the size right (first time they hurt, smaller ones kept falling out of one ear the second time). 2. They only partially block sound (they don't actually go into your ear like a regular bud). For running near busy roads, this isn't great. Overall, I'm pretty happy with them. If you want to block out more sound, get the iSport Victory buds instead.

Ordered these headphones thinking they would sound half way decent since monster and Beats are sister companies. I wasn't expecting to have the same quality as my Beats Studios (which honestly aren't that great) but to at least be enjoyable. It took half a song to realize that these headphones suck, the $30 Apple headphones that come with the iPhone are 10x better than these. The only good thing about these headphones is the fitment, I can honestly say they are the best fitting headphones I've ever used.

The fit is great, and they seem like they would be durable if I were to keep them. I also love the design. However, the sound is mediocre at best. My biggest quarrel is that these are listed as having in-line controls, but it turns out these are the basic iSport Strive headphones that have only a mic. These are model number 128946-00, but the specs listed by Best Buy are for model number 128954-00. I'll be returning these and looking for something else. The sound quality just isn't there.

Decent sound but if you have small ear canals avoid!!!!! I was originally going to by the Klipsch r6 buds but trying not to spend to much I bought these instead and I should've known better given the design they would hurt my ears.......

I absolutely loved the sound quality but the fit was terrible. I tried all 3 sizes multiple times and none would stay in my ear. The big size wouldn't even think about fitting in my ear and the medium and small sizes would fall right out. All three sizes were painful too as the speaker sticks out too far to fit properly. I ended up returning them a week after I bought them.

I broke my set of Isport Victory's, they were out of stock and was talked into the intensity's... spend the extra money and go with the Victory's.

2 days of use: one at the gym and one just doing normal things. On the second day blew a speaker in the left earbud. If you like your music loud these aren't the buds for you please pick another.

These headphones are perfect for running. I don't like headphone's in my ears so they awesome. They are light and sound great!

I was excited about them but when I started listening, I was unimpressed. If you listen to a wide range of music on your device, you will not like the lack of bass, and the ear aching high's. If the music was acapella, these would be exceptional.

Sound is good for a $50 product - stays in ear without feeling like it is in your ear drum. Sweat proof, water resistant, and easily cleaned. Lets in just enough outside noise so you are aware of what is going on around you while providing crisp clean sound. The bass could be a bit better but overall a great product for the price.

I did a lot of research before buying the Monster Isports. They worked great the first few hours I used them. the following day I was wearing them and listening to music while I was walking to class, I heard a pop in the right ear bud and heard nothing out of that side. I returned them the next day for new ones. The new ones also had problems right out of the box. Only the left ear bud worked and the right one didn't work at all.

The sound quality is only so so. The bigger issue for me was the fit. I'm returning after only 1 day. The headphones come with three different sized ear pieces. I'm a 5'10" male, but even with the smallest ear pieces on the headphones, these things are still incredibly big and painful for me to wear.

I don't know how they sound, can't get them to stay in my ear long enough to find out. I tried all size selections to no avail. Apparently I'm not the only one. Can I return them?

Tried the headphones as soon as I got them home, of course. Changed from medium to small inserts, and the right headphones went out...
