Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)For months, I've been looking for a good alternative to the Apple headphones. This was one of the first alternatives available (and only 10 months after the iPhone was released!), so I ordered a pair. I was looking for slightly better sound quality than the Apple ear buds(in particular, better bass response), and headphones that would stick in my ears (so I could wear them in the gym).Currently, this is a unique product: there isn't any other pair of earphones for the iPhone available for $40. I'm happy with my purchase.
The audio quality is acceptable. There is more bass than the Apple ear buds, though they are not very balanced or detailed. (I had to set the EQ to "bass reducer" and they were still a little too bassy for my taste.) The cables are made of a woven material, which makes them a little less slippery than standard wires. Finally, the microphone/button seems functional (no one has complained about the quality when I spoke to them through the headset). The replaceable silicone ear pads are a nice touch; they're comfortable, easy to clean, and do a good job blocking out ambient noise.
In short, I'd recommend these headphones to anyone looking for better audio than the stock apple ear buds, needs a built-in microphone, and doesn't want to spend a lot of money.
[Updated 11/3/2008: Since writing that review, the microphone and button on the headphones have stopped working. I have contacted Griffin about getting them repaired/replaced, and they have refused to help me. I guess that you get what you pay for.]
