I'm not really forcing you to get a replacement (another brand), but if you can, get it. Why? It's easily breaks, catches static from almost everything (place it near cable/hard disk/another electronics/gadgets and use it. You'll know what I mean.), and the bass are too... Read the full review →
These headphones came with my iPod (5th gen) and my iPod Touch (2nd gen). They are quite possibly the worst earbuds you can get for a media player. No bass at all, muddy overall sound. The rubber rings that connect the speaker grill to the main assembly starts to come off after a couple months. I do... Read the full review →

Bought a Philips model for a quarter of it's price and it has the same sound quality, it's more comfortable and resistant. My iPod shuffle and the three iPhones i've bought since then...

Apple has come a long way in their included headphones since the days of iPod minis. I got used to using these boys all the time while I had an original iPhone for a year and a half. They fit (my ear at least) well and sound loud and clear for sub $50 ear buds. I've actually sent a set or two... Read the full review →
