Offers a rugged, utilitarian design that seems very durable, cord is wrapped in cloth and available in a choice of four colors

Not a good value when measured against its virtues: no mic, no iPod controls, bass can be overpowering, subpar fit, and a lack of high-end detail

There's not much to set these Zagg Z.Buds apart from the earbud herd. The version with the integrated mic and iPod controls is a more compelling option.
