Review on Sony Extra Bass Active Sports In Ear Ear Bud Over The Ear Splashproof Premium Headphones Deep-Pink (Limited Edition) by Dana Mahendra

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Weak stuff broke right after the warranty expired.

Left channel failed after less than 100 hours of use, about a week after the warranty expired. FWIW, I take very good care of my gear. I kept them in a mint box in my backpack, never pulled them out by the string and always put them back in the box immediately after use. Putting your ear through the ear loop was figuratively painful, and wearing it for more than an hour was literally a pain. However, they stayed in place until I took them off no matter what I did.

As I walked around town, I could barely get them loud enough with the iPhone 6S to hear the talk radio over ambient traffic noise (approx. Of course, once they stopped working altogether, none of these shortcomings mattered. As I walked around town, I could I barely turn them loud enough with the iPhone 6S to hear talk radio above ambient traffic noise (about 80dB) as well as gym music that's loud enough to drown out the speakerphone music in the gym. Of course, none of these shortcomings mattered when they stopped working altogether.
