   These are a great pair of ear buds. I keep them with me whenever I have the opportunity to listen to music mobile because they keep great sound quality whenever they plug in and start playing. When using these, I do not need to turn my phone all the way up to hear them at a good volume which is a very good feature. I have had them for about a month now and my pockets have gotten wet but the ear buds still work so yes they are very reliable. This was a good price for some headphones that go beyond just getting the job done. If you are still considering, this is the best deal out of a lot of the products I found when searching. They are easily accessible, discreet, and they provide excellent comfort when inserting them into your ears. It makes the listener want to keep them in for the peacefulness. Like I said, I recommend this for earbud shoppers. Very good sound quality is what I focus on and it provides. These earbuds also have a small amount of sound canceling ability which improves the listening experience as well. Thank you Panasonic.These are a great pair of ear buds.

   Great Mazinga – January 29, 2014

   
   The janitor recently stole the pair of Skullcandies I usually left at work. I wanted a good music listening pair to replace them. I recently bought several “cheapish” ear buds, one 20 dollar set, and a set of JVC flat headphones recently. I couldn’t decide based on reviews alone, so tried several different options. I know it was silly. I should have just spent it all on one “nice” pair, but I thought it would be fun, and it actually was. Besides, why give the Janitor such a big target. ;p I also discovered different roles for the buds I bought. They nearly all have a place in my collection. :] Win win.I’m no audiophile, or sound professional. Evenso, I bet I’m like a lot of you. I want nice sounding music to accompany my day while quieting the environment. I hope these comparisons will be helpful so you don’t have to buy a bundle of buds, and can maybe zero in on a set or two that will serve your tastes best. I enjoyed comparing and contrasting, and actually noting quit a bit of difference.The buds/phones I tried areiLuv iEP322ORG [orange] in-ear Ultra Bass ~6 dollarsPanasonic RPHJE120K [black] in-ear ~6 dollarsYamaha EPH-20Bu [supposedly blue but actually purple] in- ear ~20 dollarsJVC 10HAFC earphones ~3 dollarsJVC “Flats” on ear headphones black ~12Skullycandy “Ink’d” in ear buds ~15 [already owned, but in for comparison]Sentry Wind-Ups in-ear buds ~5 dollarsiLuv:I chose the orange iLuv’s because it was the cheapest color on Amazon. I enjoyed their sound overall. They are the most bass heavy of the group. However, they leave the highs and mids a little neglected. They also reduce ambient sound decently, so you can focus on what you are listening to. So while these are not the most balanced, your teen will probably love the sound. They are also on the “loud” side. Even at minimum device volume these came in the loudest. As such, I will probably put these in with one of my DS systems’ carrying cases. It will be great for those, and be on hand so I won’t have to scrounge around for a pair, when I want to hear the game and not my wife’s TV programs. These also won’t be my work or walking pair, because they don’t look very adult [again, your teen will probably love them], and they produce the second most “cord noise” in the group from the cords rubbing on your shoulders or clothes while you are walking or exercising. If I had nothing else to compare to, I think I’d have been very happy with this set.Panasonic:The Panasonics were probably the quietest of the group. Sound is relatively balanced, with no real extremes. Bass seems light for an in ear bud. They are now my go to bed buds. I can put my device on minimum volume and easily go to sleep. The iLuvs and Skullcandy were too loud to be comfortable on both my phone media player and iPad mini’s lowest setting for sleeping. The Panasonics are also small enough, that they weren’t uncomfortable for side sleeping. These also produced the least cord noise from movement, so should be good to walk, exercise in. Noise reduction was decent and reduced my wife’s snoring several decibels. This might not be so great for outdoor exercise, where you may want to hear your environment for safety. I may even get a second set or carry mine back and forth so I can walk at lunch break in these, since I have a protected area to walk [no cars, etc.]. The lack of cord noise really makes the difference here.Yamaha:I was curious about what I would get by going a little upmarket. Granted it’s not much of a jump at “only” 20 dollars. The Yamahas were probably most similar in sound to the Panasonics or JVC flats. They had a good all around balance and were more full than the Panasonics. Bass is not prominent, nor is it missing. They sound best with Classical music in my experience. On the down side, they were advertised as “blue”, but Yamaha’s idea of blue is very clearly Purple. It’s not a major issue, but be aware, if you choose this color. Cord noise seemed on the loud side, compared to the JVC buds and Panasonics. I probably would not want to do anything active in them. However, if I could “only” have one bud, this might be it.JVC HAF10C earbuds:For only around 3 dollars you shouldn’t normally expect too much. Agree? Well, I already had a blue pair [ 4 dollars at retail] so knew what to expect. It’s a testament I bought another. This pair was black, and I far prefer the gorgeous blue plastic set, but would not pay a couple extra dollars on Amazon for that choice. I know it shouldn’t matter, but I REALLY like blues. Anyhow, the most unique feature of this set is the clamshell case you get. It allows you to wind your cord and protect the buds. I wish higher quality buds would do this. I’d pay a couple extra bucks for it. The case does not work well for most in-ear buds, I would guess. I am able to get the above Yamahas in one case [why I ordered an extra set], but it is not a perfect fit. Larger buds probably won’t fit. The buds themsevles have a durable hard plastic casing and should be quite durable. Sound is actually nice, for non-in ear buds. For the price I doubt you’d find better sound. They are also on the quiet side, and not being directly in ear, you could probably give these to your kids without the threat of hearing damage you might get from louder and in ear buds. I use these to walk, talk radio, and some music. Unlike most in-ear, I can wear comfortably all day if I loosely cradle them on ear. While outdoors, they allow you to hear the environment, including wind, which is a downside. Fortunately, they do not generate the cord noise that is such a pet peeve of mine. Great all around value. I don’t know that the value can be beat for the quality of plugs, and the very well designed case. Being so cheap, I also don’t have to fret too much if the Janitor decides to steal this pair also.JVC “Flats”:These are on ear headphones, so probably not fair to compare to ear buds. Still they were part of my purchase, so I am including for contrast. At only 12 dollars, I was very surprised how crisp and clean these sounded. They delivered a balanced spectrum, without sacrificing bass as I’d expected. They do not isolate noise as well as in-ear, but you do get some reduction without having to turn your music WAY up. For straight music listening or watching a video, I might choose these most of the time at home. They do not seem to generate cord noise due to movement, but are bulkier than what I want to walk in. They also fold “flat” making them a nice travel pair for people who don’t like in-ear buds. I keep mine in an inexpensive ipad mini neoprene case, for example. Would be easy to take on a plane. I have a big head [really], despite their diminuitive size, they adjusted to fit very comfortably. I can wear for long sessions, without bother. Can’t go wrong with these.Skullcandy “Ink’d”:This may not be a fair comparison either. I think these had the greatest “retail” price when they were new, but I bought them on sale at Ross stores for about 15 dollars. These are a few years old, so might be an older make than what is available now. However, I am still surprised by how good these sound to me. Of all the ear buds in my collection these are probably my favorite for music. It figures, after buying several, the one I had still sounded best to me. It has plenty of bass, without sacrificing the overall quality like the iLuvs seem to. However, it is still one of the loudest of my collection, and is uncomfortable to sleep with on my devices. My radio is more sensitive and can tune more quietly, but I rarely use that to sleep to. This set also probably produces the most cord noise of any ear buds meaning they won’t walk the beat with me. It also features metallic red and white buds, white cord, and the companies trade mark as a red skull. While I think they look “cool” the skull and colors all look a little childish. They are not as garish as the iLuvs, but they are certainly second in my comparison. That said, there are more sedate colorings available, however they all have the contrasting skull logo in some fashion or other. As such these will mostly be used privately.Sentry Wind-ups:These were my least favorite. I was drawn in by the promise of a nifty carry case again. I might have kept just for that, if they’d have worked. However, the cord winder was rather difficult to accuate, at least for my biggish hands. Also my pair of buds may have been defective. The right bud produced only half the volume of the left. I took back to Wal-mart asap. At only 5 dollars, I didn’t expect much, but I did expect balance across left and right. I would presume that was a single item issue, but I did not want to get a second pair to find out. Sound was more hollow than most I tried, not even measuring up to the 3 dollar JVC’s.There it is. I hope you’ve these comments helpful in finding your pair.

   Before you read this review I can save you a lot of time. Buy these. However if you want more info than that you can read on, but keep in mind this is not an in depth review on how these buds are technically. I could get into frequency range before and after break in with pink noise and all kinds of other crazy crap, but I’m not going to bore you with that. You might be able to find that type of review in one of the other 1900 five star reviews. I’m just going to give you, what I hear, aside from the voices. But seriously, you can save yourself a lot of time by just buying them. C’MON THEY’RE ONLY $6. Okay, waste your time if you want. Read on if you must. But you’ll probably be disappointed.I normally don’t write reviews because English is not my first language… bad English is, but on these I just had too. Let me start out by saying before these I had an awesome pair of Bose In Ear Headphones, the old ones. They cost about $100. I did not pay for them. Someone else who is dumb did, and then further proved their lack of intelligence by giving them to me. Actually, they were a, very generous, Christmas gift I got a few years back from the company I work for. Those ear buds were awesome, but like everything else I love, they died. I did manage to get several years of good use out of them, and I treated them like a red headed step child. The fact they lasted as long as they did only goes to show that Bose makes quality stuff. Well, now that I think about it, for $100 maybe they should have been impervious to damage by human means, or possibly even mythical means. I’m going to say it, they should have been Centaur proof.So after what I refer to as the “Great Loss of 2010.” I then went on a search for a decent pair of replacement buds, in the $20 range; because as is proof by how I treated the Bose ear buds, I shouldn’t be allowed to have nice things. I tried many different types of replacement buds from different manufacturers. I’m not going to list them all because I don’t have that kind of time. I will say through all my testing that 50% were just okay, and the other 50%… well I would rather have listened to the final death rattle of a puppy. A really cute and sweet looking puppy. You know, the ones you see on the TV that make you feel guilty for not donating to the ASPCA.Well, after losing yet another pair of the okay ones, how I had those Bose for so long I have no idea, I needed a replacement and decided to try a different brand. I went again to the internet and performed the search, “good cheap headphones for someone who should not have good things.” I hit enter, the search results came up, and clicked on a link that appeared to be a tech review site and let me tell you… they are really good at disguising porn sites to look like normal sites in search results these days. So after seeing something that I will never be able to unsee, I came across the Panasonic RPHJE120S and figured for $6 on Amazon I’ll give them a shot. I’ve wasted $6 on far worse.They arrived the day before I ordered them, as Amazon has awesome shipping, especially if you are a Prime Member. I grabbed my Zune, no I don’t have an IPOD because I believe Apple, and the late Bea Arthur, are trying to kill me. I put in the buds and selected a track to play, expecting either okay sound or sound so bad that I would black out and wake up naked in a quarry with a dead rodent in my mouth. The latter has only ever happened to me twice in my life… three times tops… four at the most… possibly every Friday. Once my selected track started playing I was just amazed, to find my neighbor on his roof trying to fix his satellite dish in a t-shirt, pair of boxers, rubber rain boots, and a tool belt, with no tools in it, unless you count him. The sound out of the ear buds was awesome too! Clear highs, nice bass, just great frigging sound. It sounded like the puppy was right in the room with me. Then I turned on some music and was further impressed. Initially the highs in certain songs seemed a bit, too high, but over time the buds broke in to be just pure awesome. A $6 dollar pair of headphones that competed with those $100 Bose buds I had. Don’t get me wrong, Bose is Bose, but to even approach sound quality on par with those Bose buds in a $6 pair of Panasonic’s is damned amazing. But be warned, these buds ARE NOT Centaur proof. I checked. They are fairy resistant though.I have also found them pretty comfortable, and they stay in my ears pretty well. I have fallen asleep with these things in. I did an experiment in which I tried to give myself night terrors using audio. It worked, I have never felt the same since. I may have also released something that can only be described as pure evil into the world. But like I said they were real comfortable and stayed in my ears even when I woke up screaming and thrashing about.Maybe if you are insane, or a complete audiophile, or both, because they usually go hand in hand, you can pick apart these headphones. I have friends who are audiophiles/insane/schizophrenic and they can find issues with even the best audio gear. If you are looking for a good set of buds to use in everyday use that have great sound you really can’t beat these. My first pair of these I had for about year, and then I lost them. I actually think I know where I left them but promised I would never go back… DAMN YOU NEBRASKA! I just bought 2 more pairs and just got done making sure the they worked and thought to myself; “I have to review these, they deserve it. Also, I need to teach Amazon a lesson for giving me an outlet to share my opinions.” I believe this is the first product I have ever reviewed on Amazon and if you have read this far you can probably see why. I’m an idiot.If you need ear buds… get these. If you don’t need ear buds get them. Hell, if you don’t like them you are only out $6. With almost two-thousand 5 star reviews, including this one, it’s a pretty good sign that these are in fact good buds. If you don’t buy these it’s a pretty good sign that you are in fact an idiot. I would know, we can spot our own.Yes, I have read the bad reviews, that’s what I do. I research a product to death and then look only at the bad reviews to see if the complaints really seem valid or sane. This may sometimes scare me away from perfectly good products like the Nokia N-Gage, HD-DVD, and reusable toilet paper. But sometimes, especially with bigger purchases, I really want to feel sure after ordering the product, that I have made a huge disastrous mistake. However, that being said, I have no idea what happened to some of the people that left bad reviews for these. Maybe they got defective buds, or they are really picky audiophiles, but having heard them myself I can’t agree with those reviews. I also don’t agree with the law of gravity or that 9/10 of the law involves possession.I have also beat the hell out of my first pair of these buds. I used them for everything, airplane, car rides, while I was cleaning around the house, and in the gym. Occasionally I have used these as a leash for my dog, and in two instances these saved my life from demons, that live in my head. Apparently head demons hate death metal, but absolutely love smooth jazz. Strange, I know. Seriously though, in the gym these things got ripped out of my ears a whole lot of times and they still kept working. Like I said, in the end I lost the first pair, but they still worked great when I lost them.I’ll finish on a serious note and stop joking around for just a bit by saying this, at the end of the day everyone’s hearing and preferences are different. You can hate something that I love and vice versa. That’s just how it is. So in the end there is no guarantee, but if you do the math and you even count the 3 star reviews as bad, only 19% of everyone that bought these did not like them. The other 81% like me… nothing but love baby. These things sound great, fit in my ear comfortably, they stay in my ear pretty good, even when I am at the gym, and seem pretty durable.See, I told you could have saved a whole lot time if you would have just bought them, but you needed to keep reading.

   I love these earbuds over the rest. Sure, I have Apple earbuds pro, high-end noise reducing earcups, and a slew of other listening devices, but they serve specific use cases. If I want to hear stereo spectral sound, that’s what l’ll use. These also serve a specific purpose: they are the ONLY earbuds I found (at a reasonable price) that I can wear to bed, and fall asleep with them on.Pros:1) Sleep-Friendly. These are designed to NOT protrude from your ear. I can sleep with my head sideways on the pillow and these do not bind or hurt, as I have found with all others. For me, this is the single most important factor.2) Comfortable. I can wear for hours / overnight without discomfort.3) Lightweight. Cord doesn’t sag, and is easy to wind into a good earbuds holder.4) Inexpensive. I have ordered these numerous times, and I will buy no others.Keep in mind, these are simply for listening.-No microphone.-Good fidelity – Not superb.In no way do these rival higher end buds, but they are highly reliable, and I will always have at least two pairs on hand at any given time.

   Samuel – November 26, 2012

   
   In just the past several years the difference between the least expensive IEM headphones (in-ear-monitor, or “earbud”) and the “high-end,” premium-priced models (some costing as much as $1000.00 and requiring special fitting by an audiologist) has been reduced to a degree sufficient to “fool” the most discerning listeners in a blind-fold test. Of course, any failure to differentiate the “cheap” from the ultra-high end brand would immediately be blamed on numerous variables, which are likely to affect a listener’s judgments about an “earbud”-sized phone more than is the case with full-sized headphones. With IEM phones there are always questions about the size and materials of the ear-tips, and the particular “seal” that is achieved while listening. Moreover, the judgment is always necessarily highly “subjective” and relative to listeners’ personal tastes. If it’s not a blindfold test, the preference may come down to listeners’ susceptibility to makers’ promotional material, the added “designer-quality” features (including packaging), and lots of elitist hype supported by technological jargon based on physics and acoustic principles.Oddly, listeners tend to disregard the source material and its limitations, regardless of the technology of the transducers (i.e. phones or speakers) used to reproduce the frequencies of the source material. Yet, more often than not, the source material is compressed to the size of an mp3 file with a bit rate of 128 kbps as compared to a non-compressed WAV or AIFF file of 1411 kbps. So unlike the high fidelity systems of the 1970s–AR3 vs. KLH “sealed” speakers vs. McIntosh and JBL combinations of woofers, mid-range drivers, and tweeters in a single gigantic cabinet–all designed to transmit the “non-compressed” signal embedded in the grooves of a long-playing record–the “stakes” in today’s audio comparison/shoot-outs are far lower and less significant. Instead of “which system can reproduce the full frequency spectrum?”, the question has been reduced, merely, to which system sounds best while translating the limited information of an MP3 file into sound that is most pleasing to the perception of the listener?With practice and with certain types of music that has been recorded by certain engineers, I’m now able to distinguish between Apple Lossless compression (files of 768 kbps) and common MP3 files (128 Kbps), but the perceived difference is neither habit-forming nor behavior- changing. I’m still inclined to go with whatever “sounds best” to my ears. Invariably, I’m impressed by the phones or speakers that, to my sensibilities, best represent the “sounds in nature,” ie., the actual, pure and non-distorted, non-altered sounds of instruments recorded individually and in ensemble contexts as well as the complete range of the male and female human singing voice. But when listening to an engineer like Rudy Van Gelder, who distorts the sound of the piano and enhances the sound of horns to offer the listener clearest access to all of the instruments being recorded, the headphones or speakers can do little to rectify the imbalances found in the source material. It’s when listening to the engineers who recorded “Kind of Blue” at Columbia Records or to the recordings of Roy Dunann for Contemporary Records that my ears perceive the truest, most “natural,” deepest and most complex sound of an instrument, or instruments, or the human voice–IN SPACE. Without regard to “context” (or what some listeners refer to as “ambiance”) there is no longer a standard of reference, or a “sound in nature,” which necessarily will have 3-dimensional realism, or depth. Instead, the sound is manufactured and altered long before being picked up by various amplifying speakers in earphones, headphones, or elaborate speaker systems.In the case of these Panasonic phones (costing $5) and the Sony phones (costing $10–though there are times when the prices are reversed, depending upon matters such as color and supply-demand), the consumer can be prepared to hear full-fidelity music, with clear reproduction of textures and pitches, from the double bass through the piano (and its overtones) through a percussion kit (including bass drum, snares, crash and ride cymbals, and the hi-hat’s “chic chic” sound on the off-beats), to the human voice itself (in this instance, Roberta Gambarini’s).I compared the two phones with each other as well as with phones in the $50-$100 area (Sony MDR-EX300LP, Altec Titanium Backbeat UHP326) and phones in the $200 area (Sony MDR-EX700LP). I suspect that the latter phones not only “wear longer” (due to better construction, thicker cords, etc.) but “wear better” (I can listen to music for several hours without any sense of discomfort or mounting pressure in the ear). But as far as initial impressions go, the sonic differences are too small (and subjective) to be worthy of mention. The Sony phones are very slightly smaller and more lightweight, which may account for my sense that the music I was hearing from the Panasonics had fuller textures and more body, especially in the mid-range. To put it differently: with the Sony phones I was hearing music played with stunning, pristine clarity while standing at the BACK of the music room; with the Pansonic phones, I was down front, practically a hostage to the crack of the drummer’s sticks, the pedaled overtones of the piano, the bassist’s articulation of the strings (not merely the bass’s tones). Very likely, the same effect could be achieved with the Sony phones by using smaller ear tips (for a tighter seal) and turning up the gain (the Panasonic earphones are a trifle more “efficient”–i.e. sensitive–than the Sony phones, which require turning up the volume to reproduce the same resonating textures. The Panasonics use a special, “ergonomic” angle along with an “angular” tip that ensures deeper insertion of the tip into the ear canal, thus accounting for some of the added “body” I was hearing in the sounds of the instruments and vocals. Some listeners many prefer the more conventional ear tips of the Sony phones. (Both phones provide two additional sets of tips, which are, in both cases, constructed with a stiff center, along the lines of Sony’s acclaimed “hybrid silicone ear-tips”).I’d recommend ordering these Panasonic phones for $5-6. If you like them, order another set before they wear out and the price goes up. If you don’t, order the Sony phones and keep the Panasonics on hand for the inevitable day that they fail (providing you don’t accidentally step on them first).[Ignore the aficionados’ advice to “burn in” the phones, even before wearing them. Even with high-end, costly phones, that’s merely reducing the average lifetime of the phones for listening. Moreover, either of these ultra low-priced Panasonic or Sony phones is ready to go into action from the moment you extract a pair from the box. (Feel free to ignore the crumpled up instructions and warranty.)]

   UPDATE July 2 2017:At some point, I ended up using these as my primary headphones. After adjusting to them, they are actually very comfortable. The first several times I wore them (see my original review, below) they weren’t that comfortable but I evidently didn’t give them enough of a chance.1. They are very comfortable to wear even over long periods of time. I use them as my headphones for all day at work and they don’t bother my ears.2. They stay in just fine working, walking, etc. I haven’t tried them while jogging but I’ve yet to have much issue with them falling out or coming too loose.3. The sound is great for the price. It’s not “Bose” or anything obviously, but the sound is much better than my Coby earbuds and roughly equivalent to my SoundBot. In short, it’s balanced and clear without sounding super bass-y nor tinny.4. I’ve just learned today that they are very durable! I was looking all over for them and couldn’t find them so I just used some other headphones and what do you know – I had tucked them in a shirt pocket and accidentally washed (and dried) them! I thought for sure they were done for. The cable even felt a little bit softer, but nope! I plugged them into my laptop and started up a video and they still worked. They didn’t sound any different than before I washed(!) them. They were very tangled but I can live with that.Overall, I would highly recommend these headphones now after giving them more of a chance myself. And, if you’re like I was initially, try giving your ears a little more time to adjust.ORIGINAL REVIEW (November 2015):I read several reviews before buying these and got intrigued. My ears are small or shaped weird – especially my left one. I don’t know what it is but I have never found ear buds comfortable. The original kind that have a Hershey Kiss speaker shape that goes in your ear – those are the worst. The soft in-ear kind are significantly better, but still not comfortable to me and they have a tendency to fall out. I prefer regular over the ear headphones but those aren’t so acceptable at work.I bought a pair of SoundBot headphones that were super comfy, but after awhile the left side broke. It still works, but jiggling the wire pauses songs, skips songs, and even turns the volume up or down (which there isn’t actually a control on the headphones for). Wanting to find a replacement (and not be locked in to one specific brand of style), I tried these.For starters, they are cute. I mean, for ear buds. The blue is a pretty blue, it is a bit brighter than say, royal/Superman blue.Also, they do actually stay in my ears pretty well. The ear piece sort of hooks into the shape of your ear in a similar manner as the SoundBot ones, locking it in place. It isn’t stuck in there however, and still relies a bit on the shove-it-in-your-ear factor.The cord is decently long, a comfortable length in my opinion. However, it is thin. I feel like it could easily have a similar problem within a few months if I don’t take extra good care of them. That said, there is no control for anything on these headphones so hopefully if it started getting damaged, it would have no effect.The sound is very good, especially for the price. I have a pair of cheap, Coby ear buds and the sound quality on those is noticeably lower than any others I have tried – so these are better than that, at least. These I would say are a notch below my SoundBot headphones and a few notches above the Coby. I would say my SoundBot headphones are about on par with my original Galaxy S5 headphones for sound quality, if that helps.One thing I dislike is that I can easily hear background noise through these headphones. It isn’t crystal clear, but in a noisy office, I find myself having to turn the volume up further. It isn’t to say that they are SUPPOSED to have noise-cancel, but I got used to it with my Galaxy S5 headphones and especially with my SoundBot ones. Galaxy S5 headphones block out the majority of background noise, and the SoundBot ones block out all but the loudest. Even without anything playing, they have a noise-cancel effect.OK, now for my primary complaint. All other factors the same, I would be very satisfied with these headphones if they were only more comfortable. It’s strange, too, because on the right ear it’s perfect. On the left ear, painful. I have avoided using my Galaxy S5 headphones because they aren’t so comfortable to me, but I actually practically retired these ones in favor of those. I don’t know what it is about my left ear. I tried switching the medium/default tip for the smallest and I might say that’s even less comfortable? I can’t quite put my finger on it. The speaker hole is narrower – it’s an oval, not a circle, giving almost an appearance like the latest iPhone headphones. I thought that would have been perfect, and it is on my right ear. My right ear could probably wear it all day, but my left ear can’t stand it.So, I know I have talked most this review about my broken SoundBot headphones, but that’s only because they are the most comfortable ear buds I have ever found. For me, comfort takes precedence over pretty much all other features (save for price) because I just can’t stand wearing most ear buds. That said, here is the fib ranking:Sound Quality:1st/2nd: Galaxy S5 and SoundBot (tie)3rd: These Panasonic headphones4th: CobyComfort:1st: SoundBot2nd: Galaxy S53rd: These Panasonic headphones4th: CobyAppearance:1st: These Panasonic headphones2nd: Galaxy S53rd: Coby4th: SoundBotPrice:1st: These Panasonic headphones2nd: SoundBot (by a few dollars)(I can’t rank the Galaxy S5 because they can with my phone and the Coby came as part of a set with other headphones)Features/Functionality:1st: Galaxy S5 (play/pause/skip/phone and volume)2nd: SoundBot (play/pause/skip/phone)3rd/4th: These Panasonic headphones and Coby (tie – no controls)Overall, if my left ear wasn’t so sensitive I would probably love these. Because it is so sensitive, I find them almost unusable. Otherwise, for the price and general quality, I would recommend them for less finicky ears.

   EasyTiger – April 24, 2012

   
   If you’ve been wondering how such a highly-rated product like this can also have one-star reviews stating these earbuds have “absolutely no bass whatsoever” and sound “horribly tinny”, I’d like to offer an explanation.These Panasonics are not designed to be placed in the ears and worn like classic earbuds. If that’s how you wear them, you’ll get nothing but tinny sound at relatively low volume (think 1960’s pocket transistor radio.) These earbuds are specifically designed to fit snugly into the ear, forming an airtight seal. If you choose too small of an earpad and/or don’t push them in far enough, you won’t hear any low-end frequencies. It’s only when you get an airtight seal that the earbuds will instantly come alive with full-range sound and volume.Here’s a quick analogy: Tightly plug both ears with your fingers, close your mouth, and hum the lowest note you can. Now take your fingers away, and notice how almost all of the low end and volume drops out. That’s the difference between a proper fit and an improper fit with these earbuds. Although the acoustic principles are different, these earbuds must literally plug your ears in order to give you the full frequency spectrum. Otherwise they’ll sound horrendous.Unfortunately, Panasonic wasn’t very forthcoming on their product’s packaging about how to wear the earbuds, and I’m certain some unwitting consumers are throwing away perfectly good pairs.As an audio engineer, I can assure you these earbuds, when properly fitted, sound excellent for the price. They’re not audiophile-quality earbuds with the sonic transparency of a $200 pair of studio-reference headphones, and they’re not as ergonomic as a $150 pair of Westones, but for the price, they are an exceptionally fantastic bargain. Do they have a lot of bass? They’re not deficient in any of the low frequencies, but they’re not bass-enhanced earbuds, either, which some of you may be used to. They have a relatively nice, flat bass response as is, but if you want extra bottom end on your music, you’ll want to boost the low end of your MP3 player’s EQ. Fortunately, boosted lows, even the deepest of lows, are handled very well by these Panasonics.As a result of how these earbuds are designed to be worn, they could be uncomfortable for some people to wear for extended periods of time. The earpads are very soft and pliable, though, and I personally don’t experience any discomfort wearing them. Since these earbuds are designed to be wedged into your ear, there are two unique, negative issues to point out:1. Be very careful not to drop your MP3 player, because having earbuds ripped out of your ear canal is not a pleasant experience.2. These earbuds may amplify the sound of your heartbeat when it’s racing during an intense workout. The incessant “tick tick tick” is loud enough that it becomes extremely annoying during quiet passages in the music you’re listening to.In summary, the audio quality of these earbuds, when properly fitted, will satisfy 99.9% of the general population. I would not recommend them for bike riding or street running since they block out ambient noise, and if you’re an audio engineer, you may find them a touch brittle on the high end, but if you need some quality earbuds to tune out the world for a while, these Panasonics are an excellent choice and a phenomenal value.

   These sound so good if my phone used 3.5mm I would carry these to use as a back up for my bluetooth buds.I did purchase them to use with my Roku remote for private listening specifically because they have a 90° jack and because I will forget them plugged in and my cat will kill them and they are fairly inexpensive. I was excited that they were purple to match but also I just like purple. Unfortunately, of the 3 purples used the one used for the cord and inner part of the bud is hideous.One awesome suprise is how small the smallest cushions are. These fit in my tiny ears and STAY PUT.I would rate them a solid 5 stars if it weren’t for the truly ugly color.
