I was skeptical but these sound great
You will not believe the sound that comes out of these small things. Amazing.

Not comfortable....too much wind noise
The sound in the headphones is fine and I really liked the fact they were light and fit over the head but the earbuds never really seemed to fit and they were slightly hard and uncomfortable. Maybe it is by design that they do not fit snug in the ear but while I was walking and jogging the wind kept whistling around the earbuds and I couldn't tune it out. (this wasn't a windy day either, just the normal air that would pass by you while walking or jogging.) The fact that they kept slipping coupled with the wind noise issue kept me distracted and aggitated to the point where I couldn't enjoy my work out. I'm going to go ahead and keep them and use them for a back up in case my headphones at work go out but these will not be used with my mp3 player as intended.

Great for sports - don't be deceived by the price!
These headphones are far and away the best I have ever had. As a runner, I look for headphones that are lightweight and will stay in place while delivering top quality sound. These definitely deliver. I have had several pairs over the years and have always sought them out. They have carried me through 5 marathons and countless training runs.
Some reviewers have complained about the rough edge that can be on the earpiece. I admit I had one pair that had that problem and it was irritating, but I sanded it down with a nail file and had no further problems. I do buy new ones periodically, as I have just today because the left earpiece cracked and broke today, but bear in mind that I have had and used this pair for the past 4 years. For a $10 headset, I'd say that's pretty good.
As for sound quality, I am very picky about my music. I can't stand muffled sound or sound that has so much bass that the mid and high-range notes are lost. With these headphones, I hear nuances in familiar music that I'd never heard before. If you don't mind the in-the-ear aspect of these headphones, the quality is amazing! I recommend them highly.

Quality Headphones for a very low price!
I have used this exact headphone for several years because the hole in my ears are so tiny that any other headphone style is painful to wear. This particular headphone fits any ear size and the sound quality is excellent (especially for the price).

Great headphones at a great cost
I purchased these headphones at Wal-Mart about 7 years ago. It took 7 years for them to short out. Wal-Mart no longer sells these headphones, so I was so happy to find them on Amazon (especially after trying out 2 other pairs, both of which were in the $20-$50 range). These headphones are great, especially for the price.
