Customers consistently note the superb sound quality, deep bass, and comfortable fit of these earbud headphones. Many appreciate their lightweight design and reasonable price. A common suggestion is the addition of volume control on the cord. The tangle-free cord is also a frequently praised feature.

Overall excellent in ear headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Little background - I own many sets of headphones from dirt cheap to very expensive. Headphones including the Audio Technica ATH-M50, Grado SR-80, V-Moda Crossfade M-100, HiFiMan HE-500, etc. I mention that just to say I sort of know what good audio/headphones sound like. I've had these for a little over a month now and the primary reason I purchased them was to have a set of headphones in my vehicle so when I was out and about I'd have something I could listen to podcasts or spotify with AND have a microphone so I could take calls without having to unplug. I prefer wired headphones because I've found bluetooth to just be too finicky in almost every set I've ever had. So, in my experience with these headphones, here's my thoughts: Pros: - Sound quality is very good, especially for the $30 I paid - Bass is strong, but not boomy - Vocals / Mids still very clear and sound natural - Highs are detailed but not sparkly - Microphone is excellent - people taking calls from me say the audio is great unlike so many other headphones with inline microphones - Ear tips are very comfortable and seal well - Seem durable - They isolate sound well - the seal from the ear tips lock out external noise very well - they are NOT noise cancelling headphones, they just do a very good job of sealing your ear and blocking noise Cons: - Wish the cable was less tangle prone - they're not as bad as simple rubber/plastic coated wires, but not quite as good as cables that have some sort of fabric wrap - small gripe - A little "wide" - so while they fit well and are comfortable, the stick out from your ears quite a bit - they're on the chunky side for in ear headphones - they're not heavy or anything, just large - Wish it had volume up / down buttons on the control - would have been great - instead has a single button for starting/stopping, answering and hanging up calls (I'm on Android) With the information above, it's easy to recommend these as they check all the boxes. They sound great - no they're not audiophile in terms of hearing every little detail like headphones costing 20x as much, but they're very good and most certainly an upgrade for people coming from earbuds or cheapo sets bought off Amazon. They work well as a headset for taking calls. They feel well made, and they are inexpensive. If you're looking for a set of headphones you can leave plugged into your phone to take calls, listen to music, podcasts, audiobooks, etc - these the best I've come across at this price point or lower.

It worked fine
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphones were fine but I returned them. I just couldn't get used to them in my ears. I'm in my late sixties and have never liked ear plugs. But for those that are used to them these worked very good and for a good price.

Awesome earbuds for bass heads!!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These earbuds are durable, and easily can improve the listening experience even if the source device has mediocre output. Even if you listen to a wide variety of genres, it adds just enough oomph to make it better! Highly recommended!!!

Great Headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Headphones are great and have a really good sound to them. Nice base as wel. My only gripe is that they are a little heavy compared to other earnuds so if they are in your ears for hours they start to feel a little uncomfortable.

Great headphone
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It has a very good quality sound and mic. The decent base is not too over and in a range which regular people will accept. The only cons is when I wear it for a long time, my ears will hurt due to its size. Still I believe the quality of the sound satisfy for most of us.
