Customer Reviews

Very good but does not last long with heavy use
A very good set of headphones that was also conformtable to wear, be that walking around town or down the gym. My only gripe is after just over a year the retractable cord mechanism has failed and it now constanty tries to retract the cord.

Mind you, this is after over a year of heavy daily use so I will happily buy another pair. Once you've experienced having this cord mechanism is hard to contemplate going back to a nomral pair of heaphones and faffing around with excess cable. Just be aware that they may not last too long which could be an issue for some

I love these headphones. First of all, the retractable wires is the most ingenious design ever! i wow my friends by pressing a button and having the wires shoot back into the headphones. It saves SO much time untangling wires. They are worth the money for this alone.

The sound quality is pretty amazing as well, i would say extreme value for money in this department.

If you hate tangled wires, BUY THESE!!!!!!

awesome headphones....but...
I have regularly listened to my walkman/minidisc player/mp3 player over the years, listening often up to an hour a day at times, jogging or on the tube, in the gym etc and have gone through a vast number of headphones...and there have been a number of issues i find important when considering a set of headphones:

Positioning: often some headphones hurt the back of your ears and ache after a while, this is definately not the case with these headphones. They felt a bit floppy at first when i went jogging with them, but after a few days id hardly remember they were there (apart from the fact that music was being played into my ears of course!).

Stability: when walking, jogging etc, often a problem for me is that headphones or earphones (particularly) fall out of position or off completely. Again not the case with these headphones...an awesome fit.

Soundquality. They deliver awesome sound. Only truly appreciated when you try another set of headphones afterwards. Great, clear and a great volume too.

Looks: Its nice to own a piece of kit with which you dont look silly....its nice looking isnt it? Although i have been told it does make my ears look big, but who really cares when the product is that good?

Durability, This is my main fault with the product which only really lasted me 6 months. The connecting port, obviously couldnt handle the strains of my jogging, and eventually i lost all sound in one ear, a definate con for the retractable cord feature (a loss in cord strength) but then saying that, thats happened before with earphones.

Anyways, straight after this review, i will be buying another pair. They are great headphones, with the main fault being their durability, but maybe thats because i ask a lot of it i dont know. But compared to the other headphones on the market, they are great for the active user.

I hope this review is of help to you, i find the whole search for headphones thing rather tedious myself!
