    Bad design

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Not only did Sony not take into account that some people have earrings and putting these on is a chore with them, but they seem lower quality than the old design. I hate them. I had my pair for only a few months and the left speaker is already dying. I had my older over-ear hook design for YEARS before they died. I expected these to be as reliable as their previous design, but I was mistaken and now I'm without headphones.

    3 strikes and these headphones were out!

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I live in hot, humid Florida and like to run while listening to my iPod shuffle. The over-the-ear headphones I had were on their last leg and I picked these up as their replacement. After a little over a month of using them the left ear started to lose its sound. With the Best Buy warranty up I just lived with mono for the next month or so until I couldn't take it anymore. I bought another pair because I really liked the way they fit. Well, it was summer now and the same thing happened except it only took a few weeks. I exchanged them at Best Buy for a new pair and it was deja vu all over again. So same problem with the left ear on three pairs of headphones and $40. I eventually went with a cheap $10 JVC pair which have been fine.

    Great sound for ear buds

    I needed new ear buds for my workouts that wouldn't keep falling out. I love these because I can place it over my ear and it remains. My workouts have benefited because I can stay motivated thru my music and not having to constantly fix the ear buds. Best purchase.

    Defective design

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    My second pair failed in the left channel. First pair worked for about 30 days and left output very weak. Sony replaced under warranty. Replacement unit lasted about 9 months, left channel abruptly quit working. Some sweat got in my ear and that was all it took.

    Zero bass response

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    After reading some decent reviews, I decide to buy these. Unfortunately, mine were horrible. There was literally zero bass response. It just crackled. The other thing was that the fit was secure, but still loose. It was not a tight fit. Good price, but you get what you pay for.

    Side goes out

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I use these for the gym and within one week one side went out. I returned them and the same thing happened again after another week. I've still not returned the second pair but if I do I will get a different brand.

    Horrible Product

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    These are the worst running headphones. The moment you start sweating the sound gets muffle. If they get any sweat on them you will loose about 95% of sound. It totally ruin my runs for two days.

    Went to local Best Buy in search of Sony's behind-the-neck headphones, no luck. Decided to try these. Fit is terrible, found them awkward to put on/handle, ear buds wouldn't stay put and were painful, besides. Sound good, when they stayed in ear, but I'd need to keep my hands to the side of my head for that to work consistently. Found and am buying the behind-the-neck headphones on Amazon (they're not available on Best Buy.com).

    Nice Design, but...

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    These earphones are not of good quality (I should have known for only $20 dollars; but I figured, since they are name brand-Sony, then why not?). They are not water proof as advertised. I use them at the gym (I do mainlyou cardio) and after the 2nd use, the audio started to decrease in volume, even with the volume turned all the way up. I most likely will take them back and look for another pair. Like I said, I like the design, due to I use them to workout, but other than that...no bueno.

    Decent sound quality, terrible sweat resistance.

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Some of the least sweat-resistant sports headphones I've used. The headphones don't break, but the right earbud first drops volume and then goes silent after a few minutes of running or in the gym. They recover once dry, but that's not really the measure of what is wanted in "sports headphones."

    These headphones are terrible!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I wish I could give these a tubs up, but the sound quality is really BAD. They sound very tinny, and even staticy (not a word, I know, but it is the only way to describe the sound). It is doubly disappointing because I had another pair that happened to be fabulous. I am returning these without a doubt!
