Advantages: Excellent sound Disadvantages: Very awkward to keep in ear, and wire will not straighten out
I bought these as a replacement for the iPod headphones which came with the iPod, and I cant say I regret buying them, as the bass and overall sound is far superior to the previous Apple headphones, but the one MAJOR problem I've had with these is keeping them in my ears. This actually seems a little contrary, as if they're "street" headphones, surely they'd be designed to stay put a little better? Perhaps I just have small ears...

I bought these as a replacement for the iPod headphones which came with the iPod, and I cant say I regret buying them, as the bass and overall sound is far superior to the previous Apple headphones, but the one MAJOR problem I've had with these is keeping them in my ears. This actually seems a little contrary, as if they're "street" headphones, surely they'd be designed to stay put a little better? Perhaps I just have small ears... The headphones and wire are somewhat rubbery and flexible, so if someone should decide to run up and pull them out of your ear they should suffer no damage. The downside to this is the wire seems permanently bent into a coiled position, which is a little annoying when it comes to using them.

Looks wise, they're white, so for the fashion conscious among us they go quite well as iPod earphone replacements. The rubbery plastic makes them very durable, and the jack end is an "L" shape, so its actually less likey to get damaged when compared to Apple earphones, which stick up from the iPod. As far as value for money goes, I paid £10 for my pair, which is pretty reasonable. Overall, if they fit, you're ok, if they don't its a bit of a pain.
