Summary: It hurts so bad
Review: First of all, these earphones are not THAT easy to put on. It takes quite a bit of adjusting, especially if you wear any earrings. After you fit them in your ears securely, they are great for about 40 min. After 40 minutes, my ears just start to hurt and it definitely wasn't because the volume was too high. Maybe my ears have weird shape. But I get the feeling that "one-size-fits-all" doesn't quite apply in this case.

Summary: these things [stink]
Review: I bought these headphones and after the first time using them it fell abart in my ear, I was sitting on my bed doing homework, was that to much to ask Philips? the whole ear piece is held together by a little rubber band, and if that falls off it is the biggest pain to try to get it back on. If you want good, long lasting head phones that are held together by plastic then check out the sony products!

Summary: Surprisingly good sound and stays put!
Review: I like to listen to music on the move, so it's always an irritation when my headphones fall off constantly (and boy do those earbud ones ever!). Well, these are my favorite headphones so far. They STAY PUT, whether I'm cruising through rush hour crowds or jogging. More importantly, they don't suffocate your ears like the traditional over the head headphones. What really draws me to these phones, however, are the sound quality. The sound is actually a lot better than some of the more expensive low-end phones you can find (I compared them, believe you me). The bass on this, for one, is much better than a pair of Aiwa earbud ones I bought which cost twice as much. All in all, these are good headphones for active people who also want their music sounding like music.

Summary: The Worst Audio Experience I've Endured
Review: I'd always wondered what people felt like when putting a hearing aid on, thinking that the slip-on appeal of those items wasn't really something I'd want to own. Well, when these things were given to me and I tried to use them, hoping to enjoy myself, I got to feel firsthand how uncomfortable something of this nature could be. I'll NEVER go back. While these things are actually pretty in the package, saying that you want to buy them and that they would make your days out on the town entertaining, I feel that they were lying to me. From the beginning I had trouble getting them to sit correctly, with them not really wanting to wrap around the ear that smoothly. I suppose its in the design of the ear, with some people swearing by this design and some people loathing them, but I can say that these beast were burdensome when I first slipped them on and they made my ear sore. Second, the pair I had weren't made well and I actually was a little surprised by it. They actually had a jagged spot in the design, like the flash on the plastic trim hadn't been pushed back all that well, and they proceeded to assail the back of my ear with unrelenting efficiency. Personally I was angry, finding that a defect in wiring or in the speaker can be forgive but that this is totally unacceptable. I personally don't think the over-the-ear style is one that delivers in many ways. The sound isn't at optimal peak, the fit isn't always good, and taking them on and off isn't the simplest task ever. Added to this is the fact that I personally had a problem with them and poor quality, making me wonder if there are other pieces out there that deliver the same ear-slicing wonder.

Summary: Great for Exercising
Review: These headphones are lightweight, inexpensive and perfect for people who workout on a regular basis. The ear pieces are clearly labeled for the right and left ear...and the ear pieces move to adjust to your chosen listening position. The headphones are not clunky and stiff like usual plastic models. Additionally, the rubber coating is great for battling sweaty sessions! For earphones that wont make a dent in your wallet- these are truly perfect!

Summary: Good Value For The Price
Review: Well...joggers are picky. I admit I got a lot more sound out of these little guys than I expected. I came back looking for a different type of looped over ear headphones that would not wiggle around. But with all the adjustment options on this product that are never available on the fixed ones I used before...who could resist tinkering?These are actually perfect for the non-fidgety people out there and I am definitely keeping mine. Many for 15.00 - 20.00 were inferior to these by miles. I like the color, although basically invisible on you...will not mess up your hair (!) are a great bass sound, good mid-range, no fuzz. I give these a 5 star on sound, and from a fidgety runner the best advice I can give is: let yourself get used to the wrapped around style first... Then go out and hit the trail!

Review: When I first got these headphones I had the same complaints that another reviewer had. However, I did get used to them and learned how to adjust them so that they are fairly comforable. After some time you can get them on in just a few seconds even though at first it seems to take forever. The payoff is not really great sound but it is like these earphones are glued to your ear. This is priority number one for me during vigorous exercise. If that is not your top priority then I'd look elsewhere.

Summary: Decent quality, Irritating to put on.
Review: While the sound quality on these earbuds is more than satisfactory, they are difficult seat properly on the ear. They look quite cool in the package, but when you're wearing them the headphones look more on the strange side. The bass response could be better, but what's to be expected from tiny little speakers such as the drivers inside these. I reccomend a Sony band-behind-the-head pair. The larger drivers will provide improved bass response, improved sound quality, and the comfort and ease of wear will more than make up for the small increase in price, if any.
