Great earphones

The service was great. Earphones arrived in no time. The best part was the price. Cant beat it. Thank you.

BlackBerry Premium Stereo Headset

User: Brenda DuMond, Mar 15, 2012

I love the sound quality from these earbuds. The tips are "spongy" which makes them "lock" inside the ear. What a great set of earbuds!

Great sound

User: Dianne Updike, Jan 12, 2012

Pros: great price great sound convenient switch
Cons: -

What a great deal for the price! Quality earphones that come with replacement tips so you can use the tip that fits your ears most comfortably. Im glad I bought these from HTC Depot as the cost from my phone service carrier was much higher for the same product.

I 3 it!!

User: Shaayah Bryant, Nov 28, 2011

I love these earbuds!!!!!!! They are comfortable and stay in my ears. These actually block out the sound from your environment so you can hear what is in your earbuds!!! Im not sure I can speak for everyone ,but I 3 them!!! :D

Does the job

User: Jeff Klipp, Oct 12, 2011

To me if your just using to answer & talk on the phone its great. Not my cup of tea when listening to music. Im not a big fan of this kind of ear buds. You cant chew gum or eat when using. I like the ipod type for music. Calls sound good & with the buds in your ears completely you get very little outside noise.

Awesome..compares well with more expensive earphones

User: king thebtman, Aug 18, 2011

Pros: Great sound quality at an awesome price
Cons: -

Whether I am listening to The Who or Ed Rush & DJ Optical, these perform really well. TIP: The tighter these are in your ear the better the base.

Super Product

User: Micah Smith, May 26, 2011

Pros: clear sound, fits ears nicely
Cons: non

I love these headsets in my opinion these are the best out there. Ive had expensive ones paying over $100.00 for a pair and these are the best, great product for a great price!!!!

Nice!!!

User: Aaron Smith, May 11, 2011

Pros: sounds great, very clear
Cons: none

This is the best headset Ive purchased EVER!!!! Ive gotten expensive ones in the past for my wife and she never likes them, she always complain about callers not being able to understand her but this one fits her ears perfect (that was a problem also headsets never fit her ears always falling out) and she loves the quality sound when she listen to her pandora on her phone. Hands down we recommend this product I bought everyone a pair in the house and no complaints. This is a GREAT deal for the price you get an awesome product for a low cost. Highly recommend.

Works Great!

User: Wes Moore, Dec 12, 2010

Pros: Great clarity and I have tennitus.
Cons: Clip breaks in a few weeks but I found that I didnt miss having it.

Since I have tennitus I found it difficult to find the right kind of headphones at a reasonable price. These filled the bill. I use these for phone calls only so I have no idea how they might work for someone that listens to music.

Great headphones

User: Shawn D, Jul 20, 2010

Pros: great sound, great fit
Cons: could do without the control button as I dont use it

I received these headphones with my bold 9000 and I cant say enough about them. They have great sound quality and I routinely use them in my BB as well as my iPod. I have not had any issues with the earbuds falling out of my ears, even when working out and I have not had issues with the gels falling off as other users have.

One of the wires is starting to pull out of the control button in the middle of the line, but that is due to me using it while wearing my motorcycle helmet and it gets stuck in the strap and where I route it through my jacket.

Awesome on BBerry (did not try on Treo)

User: Aharon G, Dec 15, 2008

Pros: Eliminate outside sound
Cons: Your voice sounds weird in your own head

This headset is awesome for the business traveler. My wife used it to talk to me from a noisy airport. I heard her fine and I even heard the guy sitting next to her. She heard me fine but she couldnt hear him because the lugs block external noise! Awesome!

The con is that your own voice sounds weird, like youre talking with your fingers in your ears. If you remove one ear plug the effect goes away and you still hear fine with the other.

Using both ear plugs would be absolutely lethal while biking or walking near traffic.

Better headset for Torch

User: AJ Franklin, Jan 24, 2011

Pros: Good sound, controls on wire, ear bud fit
Cons: battery for volume control is a throwaway after it dies

A fine headset, much better than the ones that come with the Torch..even better than the ones that came with the Bold 9000. They usually ship with a leather case. Recommended!

Good but....

User: Graham Sauser, Nov 19, 2008

Pros: Great sound, diffrent size ear gels, improved clip, ACTUALLY STAY IN EAR!
Cons: ear gels fall of easily in pocket

I hate normal earbuds aas they never fit me, these in ears are great but the ear gels fall off to easy when in your pocket, i was forced to use the bigger size than what i normally wear and it is not as comfortable

Good Headset

User: Jill Lacher, Nov 16, 2011

Ear plugs fit snug and are quite comfortable. Easy to use. Sound quality decent. I had one person tell me during our conversation that the sound was a bit muffled and he asked that I take him off while using headset. I switched over to just using my phone and he heard me much better according to listener. That being said, another listener had less trouble, but still experienced some muffled sounds, but not enough to have me use phone without headset.
Hope this helps!

Fair headphones

User: S AE, Aug 31, 2011

Pros: fit better than stock hear buds
Cons: -

These are nice headphones, not the best but are great for working out or out where you may have headphones get damaged. The sound is definitely better than the stock earbuds and they fit better but not nearly as good as my Apple (not referring to the stock earbuds of course), Kiplisch, or Sennheiser, but very useable especially for the price.

not thrilled

User: Keith Mathers, Jun 4, 2011

Pros: great for phone
Cons: not good for music

The phone audio is better than the set that came with my phone but the music sounds tinny.

Is not comfortable

User: Eduardo Vieira, May 26, 2011

Pros: Beautiful
Cons: not have a good volume

The problem is that this headset is not comfortable to use, but it is beautiful, his volume is low even on maximum.

pretty good for the price but

User: Frank Wertheim, Mar 18, 2011

Pros: good price, decent sound maybe a tad tinny
Cons: ear buds pads do fall off and can get lost, sound a bit tinny

for the price these are nice, the cord is short and easy to hook up without getting tangled, a big plus IMO. The sound is decent but a bit tinny, this is my second pair and the first pair the ear bud covers started to fall off and I finally lost one. Do they sell just the ear bud covers?

Great With Issues

User: John Duff, Feb 24, 2010

Pros: Great Sounds, Great Fit
Cons: Gels fall of too easy and cannot find replacements.

After trying several after market headsets , Ive found these to provide the best sounds and fit. The big problem is the ease at which the gels tend to fall off and disappear. Ive tried gluing on, but they still fall off and I cannot find replacements. Useless without the gels. Hopefully the manufacture will resolve the fall off issue soon or at least offer optional replacement gels...

Lots of counterfeit models out there.

User: TMS TMS, May 17, 2012

Pros: OK sound for price, answers phone
Cons: Not ok sound for "premium".

I wonder why the price has dropped so much. Even quality sellers like Amazon are now decreasing price to $5.22. I had read that these used to be close to $100. Not this one. Someone else warned that the ones you get in little ziplock bags are the counterfeit ones. These came in mini ziplocks. Hard for me to know for sure if counterfeit. Had I not read the good earlier reviews, I would have gone higher price and got something better. Cost/benefit of returning is low considering shipping. Not horrible sound, but surely not premium, by any means. Functionality--windows phones remote/mics dont have the controls like iphone does. I phone earbuds are much better in sound--and they arent premium either--iphone buds controls/mic dont work on the Windows phone as the att sales person said they did. Will windows phones have remote functions like iphone? I wasted $21.

Underwhelmed

User: Joe Elsaesser, Oct 19, 2010

I cannot hear myself talk through the ear buds.

Wost headphones ever. DO NOT BUY!!!

User: Thu Doan, Feb 23, 2012

Pros: Price
Cons: Design

DO NOT BUY!!! I got these for $3 on eBay and they are horrible! They dont even fit in my ears. The length of the driver barrel (? for lack of a better term) is too short, which does not allow it to fit and stay in the ears. When I tested making calls from it by holding the ear pieces in place, there was a lot of static and the calls got dropped.

the worst.

User: valerie martinez, Jan 26, 2012

these headphones were the worst. As soon as i put them in my ears i realized how uncomfortable they are - the plastic squares were digging into my outer ears. Once i started listening with them, it sealed the deal. the music sounded like it was in a tunnel and after about 5 minutes, the right bud stopped working. i tried finagling the plug but all i got was crackling noises. the search continues..

One ear bud not working

User: G Aaronson, Nov 26, 2011

Pros: -
Cons: One ear bud not working

one earbud stopped working after about 2 months.

stopped working

User: Lydia Z, Apr 1, 2010

It worked for about two weeks, but I wasnt very satisfied with the sound. I expected something better quality. I used it while at the gym and the plastic coverings were very uncomfortable, I would constantly have to adjust them and they would get very wet and slippery from my sweat. Then one side stopped working altogether!

fantastic while it works

User: Aidan Gould, Dec 2, 2009

Pros: sounds good
Cons: ear-gels fall off, clips falls off, wires break

*I lost the medium size ear-gels in a matter of days just taking the headphones off. When I superglued the large ear-gels they stayed on.
*The clip never stayed on, so I taped it to the wire. This worked for a month until the plastic pegs holding the two parts of the clip together broke.
*After 6 weeks the wires inside the cable separated from the plug, but the outer plastic layer stayed attached. For a while pushing the cable worked, but now all I get is a high-pitched buzz.
Bottom line: dont think of these as headphones. think of them as a headphone kit with some assembly required and one that costs $4 a week.
