Not as good as hoped

I bought these as a fallback for my current headphones. I'm a live radio/video broadcaster and love the look of the behind-the-ear configuration. I run the cord down the back of the shirt and the earbuds are barely visible. The set I already have that I also bought from Revain is great! Unfortunately they were sold out when I decided to buy a replacement set. That's how I ended up with these headphones. Their quality compared to my current headphones is not up to standard. It feels like the…

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Poor set

Good product for $$$ - updated

I use these for running on a treadmill and they do exactly what I was hoping for. They will NOT fall out of my ears. The sound quality is ok, but it doesn't bother me because I do sports and only need to listen to the music. For the price this is a good deal. I would recommend them. Update - 02/25/14, about 2 months after receiving the headphones, one side broken for unknown reason. I contacted Revain and got in touch with a customer service representative named Caleb. He was more than helpful…

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No performance

comfortable, durable, great sound

I have small elf ears (I know right) and have been torturing myself with all sorts of headphones for many years without finding the right ones. And when I'm running, I really need something reliable that won't slip out of my ears or bounce around. Oh, and don't make my music sound like it's coming from somewhere underwater. They fit perfectly and are very comfortable. They stay put, to the point that it becomes an ordeal when I have to adjust them. But that's fine as I don't have to fiddle with

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons

These earbuds are pretty good for sports

Firstly please note that this review is based on the price I bought in 2013 for around $12. That being said, these headphones are pretty good for working out. They stay in place and have poor sound quality. To me they are just a touch of higher notes. But if you strum them nice and low, like they should, the bass comes out pretty well. But I wouldn't use it for everyday use. I only use them for training, which I do often. Seems to be holding up well. It's been almost a year and I haven't…

Pros
  • Comfortable fit with 3 sizes of silicone earbuds
Cons
  • Requires an outlet

Good fit and decent sound

They fit me much better than other in-ear headphones I've had in the past but I have to use the plastic ear tips - Monster I Bought last month to better fit my ear. The included plastic inserts are sufficient, but I still feel like they fall out and I like the sound of the bass, but they sit loose enough in my ear that I don't get the full bass tone I like. I have weird ear canals so most headphones don't work in my ears, but they're about as close to having headphones that don't feel like…

Pros
  • Slim iPhone/iPod compatible plug
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

Great Price Great Product Great Buy

is exactly what I was looking for. Before purchasing, I read all the other reviews on this product and I must say that I am completely satisfied with my purchase. .Fit: Thanks to the interchangeable inner ear tips, I was able to find the perfect size for my ears - not too big and not too small, just right. The earhooks are incredibly comfortable and ensure they stay in place no matter what you're doing (running, lying down, even jumping or skipping rope). Sound: I found all of the sounds they…

Pros
  • iPod nano 5G Color Match
Cons
  • Expensive
