    They were easy to wear, but have already worn out, and needed to be replaced.

    It is a nice MP3, the only negative thing I can think of is that it doesn't stay fit when you are running.

    I would encourage others to use this same item. I like to use this to listen to music but also to have conversations on the phone. It works very well.

    no bluetooth

    the earphone has no problem but the reason why I bought it is to use it to listen to music from phone while swimming and answer my phone call hand free. since it doesn't have bluetooth option, I can listen only after downloading music in earphone which I found frustrated. so the earphone is fine but it doesn't have bluetooth.

    Nice to have the monotony of swimming laps broken by a little Nirvana or Metric. Worth the money!

    I bought this mp3 player to use while I was working out. Unfortunately, this mp3 player did not take care of my needs. The earbuds kept coming out very easily and was very annoying when you are doing cardio on treadmill or eliptical machine and having to re-adjust the earbuds after they fall out.

    It would not connect correctly to my brand new high function computer. I returned it and had the same problem with the second one, too. If someone can get it to work I think it would be great!
