Creative have consistently provided the market with cheap, good quality in- ear headphones. This pair is good- looking in my opinion and, at the price, pretty standard audio quality. As with all speakers, I tested them over five tracks of varying audio: classical, spoken word, pop, metal and electronic- these provide a good range of pitch types and dynamic changes. These headphones didn't do too well with the classical track, the bass was a little weak and there was not much depth at all, just seemingly flat. The same went for the rest of the tracks- nothing much in terms of audio range, no deep bass notes and not enough decently high ...  Read the complete review

Having bought these for £25, the highest I have ever paid for a in-ear sound experience, I was pleased with the sound quality (keeping in mind that I could only compare them to stock apple headphones which came with my Ipod touch). Not exceptional maybe, but with a good cosmetic look and a relatively decent price compared to the rest of the market, I was satisfied. But this satisfaction lasted 2 or 3 mere months, at least 2 years short of the lifetime I had in mind. I have used Creative before, with the Creative EP-630 the last plunge I took into those budget restricted waters and was reasonably impressed. After calling for replacements 2 times, I realized I had to move .  Read the complete review

These headphones are fab - far better than the run-of-the-mill cheap dross provided free with your generic mp3 player! The audio quality is superb, and, even if you choose to have your music at extreme levels, those who are sitting near you need not have your tunes inflicted on them due to their "in-ear"ness. They come with 3 fittings so you can personalise them to custom-fit your ear so they are as comfy as possible - or you may even prefer to remove the silicone completely if you have particularly small ears. They take some getting used to, but once you have you won't be able to imagine regressing back to your old earphones. The cord is of an adequate length .  Read the complete review

The Creative EP-830s are badly designed. It is as simple as that. The sound reproduction can be forgiven. Definitely weak on bass but the mid range is clear and highs dont screech. What cant be forgiven is the form factor. I have previously owned the Creative EP-630s and its obvious that Creative tried to evolve the design and solve some of the EP-630s flaws. And they succeeded, on one count. The connection from the bulbs to the wire has been reinforced and will not break or tear the wires as the EP-630 was prone to do. However in the process they caused new problems. I think the main flaw is that the housing is too large. It is weak and prone to splitting ...  Read the complete review
