Customers are saying
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.

Great value
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you're looking for affordable quality, these guys are it. Like most people I am on a budget. I try to buy the best product for the most affordable price. I bought the Skullcandy Ink'd 2 Earbud (Black/Red) a few years back in an effort to get quality for a price. I was disappointed. At first they seemed to be pretty good, but as I listened more and more, I found the treble was incredibly saturated. If you listen to rock, the cymbal work can come through sounding like shattering glass and distorted. The bass also seemed impressive at first, but over prolonged use I noticed it was just a false and under powered bass sound. I finally decided to grab some earbuds that would give me what I wanted, a balanced sound stage with crisp mids, clear highs and punchy bass. If that's what you're looking for, then these earbuds are the way to go. For 30 bucks, they are double the price of most 'okay' earbuds, but quadruple the quality. The bass is dynamic, able to deliver big sound without drowning everything else out on more electronic driven songs(2NE1 I Am The Best intro for example) while delivering punchy bass on rock and metal. The mid and high range comes through clearly without distortion and doesn't hurt your ears at higher volume. The design is cool, though the way they go into your ears is a bit weird at first. The microphone for phone calls comes through clearly as well. If you can only afford 10 dollar earphones, by all means, buy what you can. However, if you can afford a bit of a higher price, buy these, you will not regret it. Update 7-24-18 : I see some reviews about these breaking easily. That is unfortunate for those that has happened too, but that has not been my experience and I use these in all kinds of environments. Listening to music at my desk, mowing the grass in 100 degree weather up and down hills for 3 hours. They've fallen out of my ear while washing dishes into water(never totally submerged), used while pumping iron, they've been ripped out of my ears or from the headphone jack numerous times for different reasons

best earbuds i've tried so far
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am not a great fan of Sony but these earbuds sound great, I listen to music everyday and these have not disappointed. The ratings and reviews is why I bought these. They are not expensive, so I won't be freaked out if I lose them. They sound so clear, not a whole lot of bass, but it's there when needed. I have JBL's that don't sound this good, and I paid much more than I did these. They don't tangle, the cord is good, you could always want the cord to be longer but it's good. The microphone works well on my Android phone. It does not have an up & down volume. it's kind of a bummer. I'll get over it. It's just a work around. Your not losing anything if you were to buy these, you might be surprised and like them. I have enjoyed them a lot.

Great...but not perfect.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For just audio these headphones these are a great pair of headphones. Excellent sound and range. However thenmic is placed a little far down, not enough to a nuisance but further than most. The real downfall is the lack of built in volume control. Having the smart button allow me to jump through tracks is great but seems half baked with no volume input available.

Good balance.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I read good things about these earphones and I decided to give them a try. I've been using them for a few months now and have not been disappointed. The sound quality is very good. I like it. I wish the ear buds (the rubber pieces) were a little more comfortable, but overall it's been an acceptable compromise. A good balance between price and performance.

High Grade sound for good price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In the 90s Sony was the premier headphone maker. but with time other brands took the forefront . When I bought these headphones I didnt expect them to have the great sound quality and bass. I would recommend these over JBL and Skull Candy in ears. One of the best in ear headphones I have purchased.

Good product for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got these to take with me when I travel. They sound great to my ears, although I find sound quality tends to be a matter of personal preference. They are a bit bulky for ear buds, but they fit pretty tight in my ears so I haven't had any problems. They might not be the best for someone using them while running or doing vigorous workouts because it seems they could come loose fairly easily.

Can never go wrong with anything Sony!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These usually only last about a year and a half...good thing I keep getting the warranty which is only another 8-10 dollars. Other than that, they've got great quality. Would be nice if they made these exact model but with an added volume button on the already pause/play button area.

Great sound quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These aren't my go-to set of earphones (I use these when I'm traveling, and use Bose headphones when I'm at home), but I can tell you they are a very good set of earphones, regardless if they are on sale or not. They don't sound as great as my Bose headphones, but overall they output good sound quality (for what they are and the price you pay), and they have great bass. Other users mentioned that they are uncomfortable, and would go as far to say that they are painful; from my experience, I didn't find that they were painful in any way. They aren't even uncomfortable. They are great earphones.

I LOVE THESE!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I returned a WAAAAY more expensive set because they just didn't sound or feel right. I got these on sale and I am glad I switched. *For starters, they fit my small ears. *They sound great for their price point! (I also downloaded an eq app on my phone and the bass really comes thru!) *The cord is longer than typical wired headphones. (About 2 in. longer.) *I have used them everyday for about a month now and they still look, feel, and sound like new. My teen also got a pair and I can honestly say that we both highly recommend them!!!

Provides a Enjoyable Listening Experience
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have not paid more than $100 for headphones for portable devices previously, so I was skeptical. After making the purchase, I really enjoy the sound and comfort of this headset. The sound is clear and the cord provides ample room for me to move the device around, if necessary.

BASS!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are great, loud bass and great sound quality. The pause button is very useful since you will not be able to hear anything with the volume up. My only grip on these are comfort there are time where these seem to want to fall out more than stay put and daily ear cleaning helps grip, other than that be careful with going deaf!

Best Headphones I've ever used
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use these daily and after 6 months, they are still going strong. I have had no issues with these losing sound quality or breaking. I used to buy cheap $10 pairs that I would have to replace monthly. I am glad that I bought these and I recommend them to anyone that wants great quality headphones with great quality sound.

Great Headphones! Especially for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are probably the best in-ear earphones that I've used. When I look for a pair of quality earphones, I pay attention to price for the quality and these hit the mark perfectly for me. The sound quality is amazing and it not only had a good base, but the sound is super clear. Plus these are definitely noise cancelling.
