Great
By Ethan Jacobs
I wear these a lot , cause I walk dogs for a living. There are three great things about this product.
1. The bass quality is superb, I compared it to my old headset, which I threw out into the highway. It's because there is more airflow allowed to the speaker via three ducts
2. The cord is nylon wound.. yeah. it is not going to strip easily and is really durable.
3. Phillips attached a piece of elastic to give some added 'give' in case of random tugs. It works, and has save me about 7 times in a week.
The design is great too, they are comfortable, but not after a LONG time.
you wouldn't want them (or any behind the head phones) on a plane.
A great buy, they're gonna last too.

The full rundown
By Steve Sanchez
I read a lot of the reviews before buying, they were helpful, but there were a few things I don't recall seeing. I always assume the more expensive the better, but these suprised me. I'v owned high end Bose, Sony, Sennheiser, not saying these are the same, but for the price they are incredibly clear. The highs and mids come through crisp.
The cord on one end is perfect, and you may not see in the pic, but it is a threaded cord, not rubber, which is great because I have had other cords chewed on by cats and even my toddle in the past.
The fit is a little tight because these are non-adjustable, the reflective part of the band in the back is flexible so that is how it adjusts, otherwise you are stuck with one size fits all. And it isn't really all that reflective.
The foam on the earpiece is so comfortable, it is like a stiff foam, it does not seem like it will start crumbling apart or peeling. I use there exclusively for exercising, and these do not make my ears sweaty at all, even when I am dripping in it.
The only reason I gave four stars is because, and I did not see this anywhere, they are open air. That means anyone around you can hear what you are listening, I mean word for word. I would not have bought these for that reason. I have guilty plessure for some music like anyone may (Lady Gaga) and I don't want people hearing what I am listeing to, but they will. You just have to consider how loud the music in the gym is, or if you are outside even better. But I figure with so many other people wearing theres, they may not hear yours. I know this open design is for increased airflow (eliminate sweat) and increse the bass (which it does) so you get to take the good with the bad.
They sound good, look good, the threaded cord on one side is perfect, the foam is very comfortable but stern, but that open air design suck, but for the price I am going to keep then. The price is just to good not to keep them, even if I look for high end models later. If these were closed ear, that would have been it for me, score. But, these are good, really good, you will be suprised because the price, but get them, they are better than the price being asked.

A great set of headphones, but with a weak headphone jack
By Amazon Customer
In the past I have had absolutely no problems with these headphones at all. In it's original form they were rugged and took all kinds of abuse, and it took me 2 1/2 years to finally wear out the last pair I had with the original type of jack (the grey version which jutted in an L-shape), which I did modify by removing a small bit of the connector in order to use it with my iPhone without a problem. The audio quality has been consistent and good and I couldn't ask more from a headphone set which cost me only around $15 on average.
However in the last ten months, I have purchased three sets of this model, and managed to break them all in some way, because of a simple change.
In order to get a "Made for iPhone" mark, Philips changed out the hardy grey L-shaped jack connector for a black one designed to fit the first-gen iPhone socket which is best described as utilitarian at best. The rubber used to create the jack is certainly not on par at all with the original model and is incredibly malleable compared to the original model. The first two sets ended up having the portion where the jack and the cord connected broken, causing the audio to stutter. The third set, the actual jack broke in half without too much pressure applied after an accidental hard pull. This is unacceptable for me as I use it in many settings, including my iPhone, my iPod, and a laptop.
Until Philips addresses the problems with the current generation model with the current jack, I cannot recommend purchasing what is otherwise a fine set of headphones. I'm really hoping as the first-gen iPhones find their way to the dustbin of history and you can now connect any set of headphones to later iPhones that Philips brings back the original connector type. I really prefer the L connector to the current cheap straight connector which has only caused me to switch brands after four years of loyal use for these headphones.
