Great headphones. I enjoyed the quality of the headphones and the mic when attached to my iPhone to listen to music and also to have conversations. I also enjoyed the quality while listening to a NetFlix movie while attached to my MacBook. Great product from a quality company.

So I've been using these headphones for a few weeks now and the best feature of these headphones that I've noticed has been the outside noise reduction. When properly inserted, it feels as if they reduce outside ambient noise by around 75%. I use these in the car for hours a day, and it's a very dramatic reduction in noise. Because of the difference in shape, these never bother or hurt my ear when they are pulled out or even just sit in there for hours.
So these are definitely more complicated than your standard set of earphones you get with any new mp3 players, but they are definitely worth it as well.

My primary use for the HS-730i was as a replacement for my existing Apple iPhone earbuds, so this review will mostly focus on a direct comparison between the two. I have used these headphones at the gym, at work, and walking around town.
The first thing I noticed was that there is a big difference between the Apple earbuds and these Creative in-ear headphones in terms of being able to hear outside sound. I definitely had to have only one bud in while listening to music walking around town as to not fall prey to LA drivers. I don't recommend these for someone who wants both buds in with music at a reasonable volume that still wants to hear people talking to them.
The sound quality is noticeably better than that of the Apple earbuds. There is much more depth of sound and immersion. Less tinny and better bass. I'm not an audiophile (I have been using Apple earbuds almost exclusively since 2006), but it is very clear that these have a bit more thought put in them...Read more
