Saw these while browsing around for different types of headphones to replace the stock ones which came with my iPhone 4 and decided to bite and give them a try. I've been having problems with my other headphones being not sweat resistant and basically dying while I do my morning runs. I needed headphones that were comfortable, sweat resistant, and had great sound.
These were exactly the headphones I needed! Take note that these are actually headsets, which have a mic, volume control +/- and a center button (click once for pause/play, twice for next song, three times for previous song) on the right earphone cord. You can also activate the iPhone's voice control by holding the center button until you hear two beeps. They are excellent replacements for the iPhone headsets.
Sound quality is exceptional, with a deeper bass than the white iPhone headphones.
If you don't need headset functionality and just want basic headphones, get the ones in the link...Read more

Not what I expected,

These headphones were far from what I expected. I was looking for headphones that would fit in my ear canal and not fall out; I was looking for something that sounded good associated with a $30-$50 price range. These headphones didn't sound good, or rather, they didn't sound better then a $5 pair of headphones. I had a hard time getting them in my ears, they were angled in a way that was very specific. If you didn't have that type of ear canal then they didn't fit and there was no way to adjust the angle because of the component that kept them on your ear. It felt like I was shoving a hard piece of plastic in my ear and it hurt!
The design of it wasn't smart either. They made the headphone extended (you can see it in the picture) so they could make it sound more powerful, yet it wasn't and the pointed piece hits your ear - horrible with a hat.
The controls work fine, but you have to press them hard to make sure it works because there is no distinct "click"...Read more

pros: I bought these to able to use my iPhone while jogging. I have kind of small ear canals and the ear buds that come from apple usually don't stay in my ears very well. This is especially true when running or doing any strenuous activity. So I was glad these come with different size options. And the over the ear design keeps them firmly placed.
cons: The voice control works alright, but I've had people tell me they cannot hear me well when using the phone. I suspect this has more to do with where the mic is on the wire. I never had to think about it with the standard apple set. So I'd probably still use my apple ones for handsfree phone calls.
neutral: The sound quality is fine for this price level. I wasn't expecting anything fabulous and they are perfectly adequate. If you're an audiophile go listen to your turntable. MP3's are MP3's.
