Headphones > 20 GBP to 29 GBP Headphones > Panasonic

Panasonic RP-HX70E

Advantages: Design is nice, but probably part of the durability problem
Disadvantages: Breaks easily! Don't buy it, unless you are really really gently.

Sound is A-OK! But (in my opinion) the headphone breaks too easy. Bought it, broke it within a week. Got the same product, broke it again within 2 weaks. Now I have troubles getting my money back, or getting them to repair it for free. They could surely say I was too rough with the product and they probably would be right. The problem is they say what you should and should not do with the product. When they say you'll have to be really really gently ...

Review of Panasonic RP-HX70E

Quiet listening in noisy places at a bargain price

Advantages: Clear sound, light, fold nicely - great for travel
Disadvantages: Intentionally exaggerated bass!

The Panasonic RP-DJ100 headphones aren't exactly what you'd call professional-level kit, but I like them. I picked mine up in Argos of all places, because I'd broken my cheap-and-nasty headphones for the third time, and the sellotape bills were beginning to mount up, but I can't do without music at work. I like to try to concentrate, and I have some fairly noisy co-workers, so closed headphones sounded like a good plan. For those new to the topic, ...
...are: they're headphones which completely seal the ear off, meaning that very little outside noise gets through. Even when nothing is playing through the headphones, the mere fact of having them placed over the ears means that the world for you gets a little quieter, making them great for concentrating on music in noisy environments (one reason for the DJ monicker) - and as a bonus, they're just a little bit more socially acceptable than putting on ...

Review of Panasonic RP-DJ100E-S

iLove My Music

Advantages: Stylish, durable, easy to use
Disadvantages: Sound quality not as good as more expensive products, length of chord could be longer

...and that’s all down to Apple and their range of computers, coupled with the iPod in which then came iTunes; a place where anyone can download music to their computers to sync with their iPod, to CD’s or simply to listen to on their computer. It’s safe to say that Apple have achieved the best gadget of the decade in the iPod. But what good is an iPod or indeed any portable music player without headphones? I doubt I have to answer that for you but ...
...you? This is where Apple have come up with a winner with their classic set of headphones. Apple headphones have always been pretty much the same over the years and I think they’re all the better for it. You can go out and buy all the latest £100 pairs of headphones that you like, but you’ll look just as stylish with these because they have become synonymous with iPods, therefore as long as iPods continue to be seen not only as revolutionary music ...

Review of Apple iPod Earphones

Decent enough but could be better!

Advantages: Decent fit, good sound quality, free with Ipods
Disadvantages: Expensive if bought without Ipod, breaks quite easily

Apple Ipod Earphones Review Apple Ipod Earphones are probably the most used and also the most recognizable earphones available. You will walk down the street and nearly always see someone wearing these or on the tube. Everyone has them because nearly everyone has an Ipod. However the earphones are actually not that great and although free with an Ipod cost about £15-20 if you want them new and I definitely would not recommend them if you are ...
...look quite nice like all Apple products. I do like the look of the earphones compared to most others around. ***Fitting and Comfort*** The earphones are quite comfortable and fit reasonably well. Mine used to often fall out of my left ear for some reason but that does not really happen now! They are basically quite nice fitting but nothing special. ***Sound Quality*** People sometimes criticize the Ipod sound quality but in these earphones the sound ...

Review of Apple iPod Earphones

Better than your average pair, but not without flaws

Advantages: Great sound quality, Isolates noise, Great bass
Disadvantages: Poor treble, Poor packaging

There are a few reasons why you might want noise-isolating earphones. The obvious is, of course, the "noise isolating" (although to be more accurate it should be noise-cancelling). Earphones like this sit in the ear canal and expand so that extraneous noise is blocked out (other types of noise-cancelling headphones use a microphone on the outside powered by batteries and, if you're interested in listening to music on the train or plane, that sort ...
...The other reason to use this type of earphone would be because they don't tend to fall out as much as traditional earbuds of the sort you get with an iPod. I for one can only use that sort of earphone with the small foam "sock" or something similar as I seem to have very strange ears! So if you find yourself constantly having to push earphones back in, or find the falling out while at the gym or on the bike, then this type might be worth looking ...
