Great pear of earbuds for $15, but build quality could be much betterSeptember 4, 2010 Dennis Hood(New York) I got my pair of earbuds in late January of 2010. These were bought to supplement my pair of $100 Sennheiser headphones, as it is not practical to carry those everywhere I go. I let them break in for 1-2 days before I used them, as JLabs themselves recommended. The sound quality and range are pretty impressive for $15 earbuds, although the sound is a bit muddy or muffled. They also do a pretty good job at blocking out sound. Great for people who want to ditch their Apple earbuds, as these are far superior and half the price. However, after about 7 months of use (these haven't really been in heavy use since June), the connection between the cable and the connector is starting to fail. As a result, the audio will either cut out completely or mostly/completely go to one channel if the cord isn't positioned correctly; not impressive after less than a year of use. I never registered my product with them, that's my fault, so it looks like I'll be buying a replacement pair soon.
My verdict: Good. Better than my $100 Sennheiser headphones? No, but they make a good pair of headphones for jogging, working out at the gym, etc.; I still will use my Sennheisers whenever they are practical. The cord design could use improvement, so the cord doesn't get separated from the connector under normal use.
Worth RepurchasingSeptember 3, 2010 Felicity Like many users, I am hard on my earphones. I use them everyday with my laptop, dvd player, ipod, phone, etc. I sleep in them and abuse them more than they deserve. Thus, it has become a necessity to buy and re-buy cheap headphones as they fail. These earphones have so far been the best I've found after trying out the many options at Walgreens and Walmart. While these have broken as well, they have not broken as quickly as others and are much more comfortable than most. I have continued to buy these from Amazon based on their comfort alone. I am not in pain after sleeping in them, which is remarkable for any pair of earphones.
Pros: Last somewhat longer than other earphones, supremely comfortable for sensitive ears, adequate sound quality, available in many appealing colors, cheap
Cons: Cheap earphones still break quickly after much use
Meh.September 1, 2010 The guy Pros: Sounds ok for the price
Cons: Flimsy and will likely break in short period of time. Kind of ugly. Came in a bag.
This item is ok. The sound quality is less than spectacular, but adequate. I'm 5'8" and the wire is definitely long enough to use with a mp3 player while walking. I can tell by the quality of the wiring and the reinforcement at the juncture of the ear bud and wire that the sound will probably drop out of one of the earbuds before I would like, but I suppose you get what you pay for. The earbuds also cause my ear canal to itch; this has never happened to me before. I wouldn't discourage or encourage anyone to buy this product. It's not a terrible buy, but I'll spend my money on another product when I need a new headphones.
Excellent for the priceAugust 31, 2010 Sarah(Morton, PA, US) These headphones are a great buy for this price! The sound is great, a huge improvement over my last earphones, they look cool and they are much more comfortable than the Ipod headphones. The only thing of concern for me is that the jack is straight so it might be easier to pull it out by accident, although this has not happened to me yet.
Excellent earphones, excellent serviceAugust 31, 2010 Xiang Ji(Madison, WI United States) I've experienced many headphones, including some high-end Sony's and a pair of Shure studio earphones. All my previous relatively inexpensive earphones couldn't compete with the higher end ones, but this one can, and that's an understatement. I do not want to babble on since it's very inexpensive and you should give it a try.
Another plus is that they provide a good level of sound-proofing - I traveled with these during a recent trip overseas and they gave me so much peace over a total of 30+ hrs of flight. I plugged them into my ears just to block out the noise.
About two months into my ownership the right side stopped producing sound, a quick word with Jlab and a replacement pair was sent to me in a few days. Now that's service. I don't know about you but to me that's a *very* important part of me buying a product, thus the five-stars.
