    These are lightweight and very comfortable. I would highly suggest you check them out and decide for yourself.

    These have great sound and are very comfortable.they come at a very reasonable price, and it is very worth the few extra dollars for the Best Buy protection plan, since they wear out like everything else when you use them for several hours each day.

    These are great for the price. Way better than the cheap ones as far as sound & durability. These are a great buy if you are looking for some headphones that are better than the cheap stuff, but not outrageously expensive like the $200 ones!

    I purchased these headphones as a replacement for a (more expensive) Sony pair since my dog decided to chew my Sonys into multiple pieces. I was going to pick up another Sony pair because I was generally happy with them. I stopped by the Best Buy store and one of the associates recommended this set as an alternative. I was a little doubtful. But he literally told me to try them out and if I disagreed with him to bring them back. So I took him up on it and I am SO GLAD I TRIED THEM! They have significantly better sound quality, better volume, better clarity of sound. They are equally comfortable and I am a big fan. All I can say is that if my dog eats this pair I will go out and buy another set of the exact same ones! If you are in the market for headphones in this price range, BUY THESE!!! You won't regret it!

    I use these headphones everyday at work to listen to podcasts and music. They're durable, come with a convenient carrying case, and I haven't had any issues with the sound quality. I'm not sure they're much better than the options around $20, but I've also had no complaints.

    Mic could be better

    These earbuds are very comfortable. I'm able to keep them in for hours at a time without any slipping. Cleaning them is easy too. My one complaint when using them for phone calls is that the microphone picks up every little bit of background noise. The other person can hear it, but I can also hear it through the earbuds. It's very sensitive, and picks up when clothes are rustling near it. I don't like the disconnect button on the mic either. Many times I have accidentally disconnected a call when trying to simply grab the mic to adjust its position. For me, the cord is excessively long, and has a tendency to get caught on cabinet knobs and door handles. Thankfully the earbuds are soft so it doesn't hurt that much when they get yanked out of my ears in those cases. :) Overall, I do get a lot of good use from this product but am finding I use it more often for listening to music rather than using with a phone.

    They come with different sized buds for comfort and sizeing. The sound quality is good. They work well for just lounging or working out. They have fun colors. Also nice that you can leave them in your ears to answer incoming calls or to make calls.

    Sounds good. Filters out all the real world noise which is nice. But almost any movement over moderate will fall out quickly. But to be clear. Flying on a plane or sitting at work they are prefect.

    Love these earphones overall. Great for music, good for phone calls. The earbud separates from the base too easily though. I run a lot and these weren't great for running.

    Skullcandy - Smokin' Buds Mic'd Earbud Headphones are great for people who lost or mistakenly broke their headphones for their smartphones. Its sleek, stylish and quite durable. I use to buy the cheap kind of mic/earbuds to save money but they would beak and the amount of money I spent on buying a few of those cheap ones is the same as buying ONE skull candy and so far it has outlasted all of those other earbuds. Its a fantastic product with a reasonable price. Great sound quality too.

    I got these because normal plastic ear buds always fall out of my ears. The salesperson recommended these to stay put and said they would have a volume control like my last inexpensive pair that broke. They may have a volume control with a smart phone or other option but do not with normal PC use. I returned the Skull Candy and got Yurbuds that are all one piece and do stay in my ear. These new Yurbuds even have an option to custom fit which I am going to do to make them even more comfortable. Without music playing you can hear a low "air" type noise with both pair.

    Quality is great for the price. The sound is good although the bass is a little weak. This is my second pair. Skating gives lots of wear and tear.

    Great for blocking out ambient noise, which is a plus in NYC. Unfortunately, the buds slide out of my ear so I'm constantly pushing them back in.
