After being annoyed by the hassle of packing and carrying larger sets of headphones around, I noticed these at the local department store and decided to give them a try.
What I noted immediately was that the phones must be used while still attached to the case. Though portable, the container is of a good enough size so that the weight is noticed while the headphone are in use. If you work at a desk or on a laptop, this should not be much of a problem.

I bought these ear buds awhile back and quickly decided that I didn't liek the retractable feature. Although handy, the case has a nice amount of weight to it especially when on the go. So I ended up breaking the case open to just use the ear buds and found that they are very light weight, have nice rubber grips on the ear bud part so it stays in my ears. They also have good noise canceling abilities. As concerned for tuning anyone out around you since they fit in your ear so snug.
Not what I expected.,

The flashlight isn't a flashlight. It might be good for others to see where you are but it won't help you to see anything. Don't get it if it's the light that interests you.
