4 out of 5 stars Good sound, great price   October 3, 2008

I never liked the sound quality of the iPhone 3g supplied earbuds. Plus I too had issues with earbuds falling out when doing any sort of activity. But I didn't want to give up the microphone and music control feature. So I started shopping around. Other options like the Optimo were at least $50 and had some issues. I don't really want to pay $100 on a set of V-Modas either. So I took a chance on these Coby earbuds despite some negative reviews figuring that $20 is not alot to pay for earbuds.

Am I glad I did. These Coby sound way better than the Apple earbuds. Bass response is very good without overpowering. Hip Hop sounds great. The drums on many of the Alternative rock I listen to have good punch. Highs are a little sharp for my taste, but not overly so. Overall I enjoy using these much more than the Apple buds.

The music controls work great with my iPhone 3g and the size of the mic/control piece is almost the same size as the Apple earbuds. Only thing is the button is only on one side as opposed to basically two sided on the Apple buds. Also the mic is on the left earbud as opposed to the right on the Apple buds, but that is neither a pro nor a con. Plus the white with silver trim matches my white iPhone 3g perfectly as if it was made together.

Only reason I gave them 4 stars instead of 5 is because sometimes when I am on the phone I have to repeat what I say to have the person understand me (but that happened sometimes with my Apple buds too). Also the fish idea is kinda dumb. Who wants that big thing dangling from your phone? Otherwise I disagree about the length of the cord as one person stated. I think the length is just right.

Now the only question is how long they will last. I have had them for about 2 weeks now and so far so good. I will update if that changes.



1 out of 5 stars Junk; broke within 10 days of use!   September 27, 2008

JUNK! I purchased 2 sets of these headphones from Amazon, and the ear bud on one set fell apart after only 10 days of use. I called Coby for warranty replacement, and they want me to pay a $6 warranty fee to replace their piece of junk headphones. Poor quality product and weak warranty policy.

I have gotten two of these from one of the sellers and both of them had one earpiece die on me within two weeks.

Was so excited to find a cheap pair of iPhone headphones...

The good:
- Cheap
Considering the price, from someone who is not a headphone connoisseur-->
- Pretty decent noise canceling
- Good sound
- Great microphone/button placement & usability

The bad:

- On the packaging of this product it warns that after touching the wires you should wash your hands because they contain lead. And that lead could cause cancer. Now, how do they propose using headphones without touching the wires? I knew I wouldn't be able to find another pair of iPhone headphones for so cheap, so I took matters into my own hands and covered the wires with electrical tape. Sure, it's not so aesthetically pleasing, but they still work.

- Despite coming with 3 sizes of earbuds, all 3 are too big for my ears, maybe I just have abnormally small ears, but it get slightly uncomfortable after a while of listening.

i tried to buy this item and when it got into my cart it was listed as having $302.99 in shipping charges added! NO THANK YOU! What a ripoff. All I wanted to do was buy a few pairs of headphones, but this seller has lost me as a customer forever.
