    I have had several LGs, 2 Beats Studio, 1 SkullCandy, and 1 powerbeats headphones. These are decent headphones for the money. The bass is heavy and avoids the "tin can" sound the low end LG HBS's have. I'm a heavy user. Wearing the set all day during commute, work, and gym. The build quality is my biggest complaint. The power button fell off of the first pair within 30 days. I was able to take them back and Best Buy was good about letting me swap them for another pair. This pair I have had for about 10 weeks and the volume/track button has fallen off and the power button. I guess I'm going to have to go up on my price point for something that will at least last me a year

    I bought 2 pairs for my son's for Christmas. I should've spent more on better ones. They didn't want to stay in there ears when working out or just walking. They break easy and I bought the warranty and they still didn't replace them!

    The quality of the headphones is good. However, if you want to only have one earphone in, it hangs and pulls the other one out. I dropped them at work and they completely broke though.

    They don't stay in the ear all too well and barely connect to any of my electronics. I eventually upgraded to more expensive headphones

    I'm all about that bass

    I’ve had many sports-oriented headphones over the years. Typically the mid and high tones are good but bass is usually lacking, sometimes virtually nonexistent. Since “Extra Bass” is in the name of this product I was expecting good things from these headphones, and they definitely delivered!! Hands down the best bass I’ve ever heard from a wireless sport headphone. Most of the workout-type headphones I’ve had in the past have clips behind the ears but these are different in that there is an “arc supporter” that acts as a brace for the earpiece. Although different I must say they fit surprising well, they are comfortable and non-irritating over long periods of use. I’ve only had these headphones for 5 days so my testing is limited, but during 2 workouts lifting weights the headphones stayed in place well and did not require readjusting, same results with an 18-mile mountain bike ride. I also did a 7 mile run with these headphones, the outside temperature was 31 degrees, so I was wearing a knit cap. When running with the cap on the headphones again stayed in place very well and required no adjusting or pushing them back into my ears. I also did a test without wearing the knit cap where I found the headphones did start to work themselves out of my ears after a few minutes. I’m 6’2” 205 pounds and not the smoothest runner so this probably had something to do with that, plus the fact that these headphones have a little more size and weight to them than others I’ve had in the past, no doubt due to the construction that produces all that bass. I also like the fact that these headphones are water resistant, a bonus since it snowed during my run and had no effect on the headphones. The package also included 3 extra sets of ear buds, different sizes and color-coded, plus 2 extra sets/sizes of arc supporters. They worked for me straight out of the box but nice to know they can be modified. So overall, I give the Sony MDR-XB50BS Extra Bass Sports Wireless In-Ear Headphones 5 stars for sound quality, 5 stars for use during workouts and bike rides, and 4 stars for running. If you are looking for wireless headphones for working out and want to actually hear some bass, you will love these headphones.
