Advantages: Good deep base, good sound

Disadvantages: Get clogged with dirt, die within a year.

I have bought these numerous times, and I both love and hate them.

If you have an i-pod you will NEED to get some other headphones other than those white ones, because they are horrendously bad!

I think the sound is great, the bass is very deep on these, but some people may not like that because it can get a little bit fuzzy. But I find it great.

The fit is comfy and the material feels ok in the ear, these don't fit snugly in the ear, they are not designed to, so they are more comfortable than the true in ear buds, and also keep the sound in more, and also keep the buds in your ear!

However two things I have found, the first is a small thing, these do tend to get clogged with dirt etc, so clean them out every few months! Especially if they're rolling around in your bag!

The second is why I may not buy these again. Every time they have died, a week before or after the warranty is up (1 year) I have never seen such perfect planned obsolescence! I think I will stick with my creative earphones from now on! The warranty is very hard to use, I'm not sure how you go through with getting a new pair still!

Summary: Don't expect them to last for more than a year, but comfatable with good sound.
