Apple iPod Earphones

Along with most other people in the western world, I own an iPod where the majority of my music is now stored. I like the fact that these earphones match the iPod and other Apple designs and so it makes everything look neat and streamlined. These earphones actually came as a package with my iPod but I can see that you can buy them for £26.00 - which seems quite expensive as they are basic earphones and there's nothing snazzy or unusual about them.

The earphones are white and silver - colours which complement each other nicely. They consist of the earphones, the type of in-ear earphones and so they can be worn quite unobtrusively, and also a little microphone which is incorporated on the cable near one of the earphones. Fitting them into the ears is easy as it involves putting them into the ear and then moving them around and so it feels like they are in properly and it feels like they are a good fit. Initially the earphones feel quite comfortable, but after about 30 minutes or so they start to hurt a bit - I think because there is no padding on them and so they are quite hard. They do however stay firmly in the ears without accidentally falling out, even with jogging.

The quality of the sound is fairly good and the music sounds rich and clear. In addition, it does not add any noise pollution externally unless the music is being played on full volume.

They are basic headphones, but they look decent enough and they are good quality.....but I do wish they were a little more comfortable.
