Advantages: Free, answer calls, good sound

Disadvantages: not comfortable

The only reason I use these headphones are that they come free when you get a new iphone or ipod. I have both and in the few years that I have been using them I have been through a few pairs.

The headphones are white in ear buds with a white wire. They arent comfortable to go running with as they dont stay in well, there is no squishy plastic bit that usually keeps headphones in place.

They are fine for just sitting still and listening, the sound that comes out is quite good but not too bassy. If the channels split they go into either headphone so you get a good stereo sound experience.

The only problem I have had recently has been that if the headphone jack is pulled out slightly from the socket in the iphone it suddenly becomes unbearably loud in your ears and actually made me scream in the middle of a shopping centre as it was so painful.

These are useful if you have an iphone as it has a button to answer calls without unplugging the headphones. You can also control the volumes of the calls and act as a voice control if you hold down the button until you hear a beep. You can turn music on and off and finish calls.

I would never actually buy a pair of these as they are a bit useless, however as they are free I will use them until they stop working.

Summary: Worth it for free
