SONY Lightweight Ear Phones July 27, 2010 Palomo (Oceanport, NJ) I just received the headphones and so far I am pleased with the sound quality. I use them for running with my SONY armband radio. They are comfortable to wear. I hope they will last, however I bought 2 pair so I have one as a back up since the price is low.
Won't use anything else July 26, 2010 Sally G. Rubinstein (Boston, MA) I have had several pairs of these headphones over the years. I have small ears, so the earbud headphones hurt my ears and don't stay in. These fit perfectly, and they have great sound. The only complaint I have is that they are harder and harder to find as the ear buds become more popular. I hope Sony continues to make these. They don't last that long if you pull on them a lot, so I now keep them in a pencil pouch in my backpack so that they don't get caught on all my other stuff.
Long time user, love these headphones July 24, 2010 Sue I have been using these sony head phones for 5-10 years and love them. I am happy to see them on Amazon, the only other place I know that sells them is Target, for the same price (about $10). I use them for running 3-4 times a week. Throughout the years, I have tried other kinds, earbuds, the kind that wrap behind the ears, but these are the only headphones that stay on my ears when I run. My only complaint is that I wish they were more durable, I have to replace mine every 3-4 months because one of the ears goes out. I would pay more for a more durable pair. But for the price, you can't beat them! If you intend to be a heavy user, I would recommend having an extra pair on hand. There is nothing worse than struggling through a workout and one side goes out!
Great but breaks too soon! July 23, 2010 Jessica I am an avid fan of these headphone and have been using them for YEARS! They are cheap, small, light and fit my ears perfectly. I wear them when training, running marathons, racing triathlons, traveling, etc.
My ONLY complaint, and this is a big one, is the durability. After a few months (3-9) months one of the headphones will stop working. I will move the wire around that connects to the earpiece and sometimes it'll come to life but then, just as quickly, is dead again. There's no warning that one of the wires is about to bite the dust. Next thing you know, after strapping on your running shoes and prepping for a 2-hour run you are only hearing music from one ear.
Since these headphone are cheap and comfortable I buy 2-3 paid each time I purchase them and while buying multiple pairs may be more expensive in the long run versus buying a more expensive set of headphones, I just can't find anything as comfortable.
Very good July 20, 2010 robocop_cinci This headphone is as expected. It is very comfortable and the sound is clear almost all the time. Sometimes there is static when I am on the treadmill.
