Customer Review: A great fit...
Summary: 5 Stars
I just received my pair of these very functional headphones. I had been using the standard apple ear buds that came with my iPhone and during my walks I would end up batty from constantly having to push them back into my ears. I selected this set for obvious reasons, and I am happy to say that I am very pleased.
The sound quality is very good, but like any non-plug type ear buds you are not going to get eardrum shattering bass, or even the complete set of mid-range tones, without constant pressure. By testing and exchanging of the different adapters I was able to find a satisfactory quality, which delivers a solid range of sound, and will probably save me from too much hearing loss in the future.
I was not blessed with large ears like my father, however I am an adult male, and found that I still needed to up-size to the larger adapters all around. The ear buds were firmly fixed using the default set, but switching improved the audio quality by providing a tighter fit and somewhat more pressure on the ear bud. I also added the included soft covers which further helped improve audio quality, and provided a more comfortable experience overall. The key here is to experiment and find the right solution for your ears.
At first I was a bit perplexed by the longer right side wire, until I tried them on and quickly realized it should go around back of the neck. Once fitted and clipped, I almost forgot the wire was there. I have probably been living in the stone age as this was a first for me.
I am a bit concerned about construction/durability. The wire is soft and thin, which while aesthetically nice may break easily. The jack seems to be a bit ill-fitting, and generates significant static when moved. The rest of the components seem good.
The included case is made of soft durable rubber which I expect will last a long time. It is clipped with a low power magnet.
If you need an ear bud that will stay firmly and comfortably in your ear while exercising or even just walking, I think you too will find this a great fit.
