Works great... for a while

 

The headphones were comfortable and the folding feature was nice. However, the felt covers are not removable (to wash), so sweat buildup happens. Then, after four months of almost daily use, the right speaker suddenly lost about 50% volume. In short,...

Sound great, VERY comfortable!!

 

Well worth the money. Cord could be a little longer, but not bad. The cheaper SHS5200's have a much longer cord with a reinforced connection point on the left side. But they take more power to drive to the same volume level. I'll get a second pair of...

Thought these sounded good until...

 

I tried the JVC Flats and JVC cushion earbuds which are cheaper. These do fit comfortably and are secure when working out hard, I've even played basketball with these on.

Not Durable enough

 

Good sound, comfortable soft mesh padding, folding design, cool looks, but unfortunately so so quality. My left ear went out in about 2 months. I have a fairly active job and I use it while I'm working. It seems that the point at which the wires...

Best headphones yet

 

These headphones work great for the price. They're comfortable, the bass in them sounds awesome (even better than my actual computer speakers), and I love how they fold up to store easier. I would definitely buy a second pair if these ever break.

Consumer review by:

Beautiful

 

They're really great. Slipped them on and loved them instantly. Fits perfectly, sounds great, and feels so comfy. Love 'em

Consumer review by:

pinch my ears

 

These things have pretty good sound and are inexpensive, but they pinch my ears after I use them for 30 minutes or so. I'm still searching for a replacement for some old Phillips SBC HS386 -- please let me know if you find something good.

Consumer review by:

Decent, but quiet and slightly uncomfortable

 

The design is pretty good for someone who's working out and wants headphones that stay in place. I like the Skullcandy ear buds, but they always fall out of my ears, which is excruciatingly irritating during a high-intensity workout. I don't have that...

Consumer review by:

Hurts My Head

 

Cons: I regret this purchase. The main reason was that they are uncomfortable. I attribute this to the fact that they are foldable. This makes the default position for the ear pieces sideways, as opposed to vertical (seen in the stock photo). When you...

The large 32mm speaker drivers and bass beat vents create a spectacular big bass beat sound, while the ultra-flat foldable neckband is easy to store and carry.
