Conclusion: We like it
These lightweight in-ear headphones offer great sound, good noise-isolation, and a snug fit, all at under $100. They also include an inline remote/mic that will work with current iOS devices. If you don't need the mic/remote, consider the S4, which has similar sound quality, but no mic, and is available for about $30 less — or you can opt for the black version of the S4i, which is often marked down to a lower price than the more Apple-esque white model.

At just $20 more than Apple's In-Ear headset, the Klipsch Image S4i is a no-brainer, assuming Voice Control and VoiceOver are priorities to you. If they don't matter, or if you've got an older iPhone or non-Apple handset, the choice is less clear.

A stunning pair of earphones. They don't look the premium which they are, and for the price they offer super sound quality. These are really competitive, comfortable, and all round brilliant. They could do with being a little more durable, to tip them up the scale.

I purchased these headphones last September and never really used them, the ear buds they come with suck. Then about two weeks ago my old and trusted Shure's broke. So I took off the nice Shure foam ear buds and put them on the S4i's WOW! They sound great, stay in the ear, and isolate so...

Although I don't have the model with the built-in mic and volume controls, I can comment on the sound quality: They're better than my $200 Beats Tours (Never buying Beats again, btw) and MUCH MUCH better than my $80 Apple in-ear models (lacks any sort of bass what-so-ever). They may not be as...

These are fantastic in-ear headphones. They don't get better then this for this price, especially if you are an iPhone user. If you are not look into the s4 headphones by Klipsch. Everything works well, they are comfortable and sound excellent. Deep lows and crisp highs. The only drawback I...

This is a comfortable set of earbuds with strong bass response, which is good for some types of music. The midrage sound is not as good as I would expect for the price.
