    I purchased the wired earbuds for me to use with my cellphone as a senior citizen. I love them because they are lightweight and slender, Being black in color, they seem to disappear. Plugs fit snuggly and don't fall out. The sound is awesome.

    For phones and devices with USB-C (like my new iPhone 17) these wired headphones are an inexpensive way to upgrade your layering experience above the standard wired AirPods (which don’t even come with the new phones anyway.) Comfortable in-ear buds that drown out external noise pretty well once you find the right size of foam tip. Really great sound quality with surprisingly strong low end (bass) and deep soundstage. I’ve used the mic for phone calls and the person on the other end said the sound quality was identical to wired AirPods. The cable is flat and surprisingly not stiff (a complaint I’ve had about the Beats wired earbuds.)

    Solid Wired USB‑C Earbuds with Good Noise Isolatio

    The Sony USB‑C Wired In‑Ear Headphones offer surprisingly decent sound quality for their price. The audio is clear and balanced, making them great for everyday listening, calls, and podcasts. One thing they do well is blocking out ambient noise. Even without active noise cancellation, the in‑ear seal reduces outside sounds enough to stay focused while commuting or working. The built‑in microphone works fine overall, but it does pick up some background noise while driving or in louder environments. It’s still usable — just not perfect if you make a lot of calls on the go. Aside from that, I’ve had no major issues. They’re simple, reliable, and convenient if you need USB‑C wired earbuds. Overall: A solid and hassle‑free pair of wired headphones with good sound and decent passive noise isolation.

      Thank you for the detailed and thoughtful review, Carlos!

      We are so glad to hear that your IER-EX15C headphones are serving you well as a reliable, everyday companion. It’s great to know that the passive noise isolation from the in-ear seal is helping you stay focused during your commutes!

      We also appreciate your honest feedback regarding the microphone performance in louder environments. While we aim for clear voice pickup, we understand that background noise can occasionally sneak in when you're on the go. We’ll certainly share those observations with our product team. There really is something to be said for the "plug-and-play" convenience of a solid USB-C wired connection!

      Thank you for choosing Sony!

      Best regards,

      Gus, Sony Social Media Team Sony_US

    The bud part does not stay as secure as the older lightning model for some reason. It does what it needs to do but Sony should not mess with what works. Will recommend for home use only. If you are out, it will come out of your ears as it is not very secure.

    I bought these so I can listen to music on my s24u, and it does the job well except it's just not worth the $30 + tax price tag. These earphones focus on vocal clarity, so the bass is non-existent and it does not block any outside noise at all. The cheaper $10 sony earphones (MDREX15LP) can block outside noise, has good bass, and is a bit more durable as well so get that if you have a 3.5mm jack on your phone or other device and want something even cheaper, but better. Bought these because I got tired of waiting for the Sony wf-1000xm6 to drop, but in the mean time these earphones do their job and I'll be using them until the wf-1000xm6 release next year.

    Cable quality is great, what I expect from Sony. Sound is good and connection is solid. Personally wish it was a right angle not not a straight connector since this it meant for devices that go into a pocket. A little pricey at $30, wait for a sale.
