"the headphones look good quality but i was very disappointed when i plugged them in"

"can't fault them for the price really"

"i thought maybe mine were faulty but looking at the other low reviews this seems to be common so either the quality control isn't very good or there's a lot of fake reviews"

"i consider myself as someone who looked after these headphones returning them to the pouch neatly folded after every use however after less than 2 3 months one of the earphones broke"

"only problem is they really do cancel noise and he can't hear me when he has them in"

"50 these are no better than my samsung cheap ones that are 2"

"i bought these to use while travelling as i didn't want to use my huge sennheisers and risk losing them"

"at the moment it is too soon to give them 5 as that would depend on the time they last since that is the main problem with earphones"

"the biggest problem was always a tangled wire as i would often rip it off and one headphone would not work annoying if you listen to music!"

"i ordered it about 2 and a half years ago and recently the left earphone stopped working"

"bass is not that good as you think don't expect much from it your music app could do a lot better"

"now after just 4 weeks all vocals on any songs or soundtrack are barely a whisper whilst the bass booms and thumps along making listening to music with these earbuds a complete waste of time and also money"

"they do an excellent job of blocking out the noise of people typing texts on their phones with keypad tones on crying babies and even the disapproving mutterings of city workers who couldn't stretch to a first class ticket"

"additionally what i found extremely annoying was that when i was wearing them outside while walking and was trying to have a conversation with people they were complaining they could not hear me and could only hear banging and strange noises"

"i was really disappointing that these broke after 2 months of use so i could not even refund them"

"just a shame about the whole listening experience being miserable"

"it seems that nobody tested them for a start they are a bigger diameter than most not much but enough to make them uncomfortable and the worst problem is the sharp edge which hurts your ears after 10 minutes!"

"i brought these after getting disappointed after my wireless earbuds i recently purchased failed to work"

"upon receiving this product earlier today i was disappointed to see that the cables weren't in fact braided as i thought by looking at the pictures and the "powerful bass" is actually rather pathetic"

"they are unbelievably loud!"

"it’s a health and safety hazard really annoying because i have to buy a new pair now and that’s another 10 quid :"

"if you will be lucky enough you will get these earphones without any defect as mine the right ear provide more sound than left so they came unbalanced "

"on previous occasions i have paid a hefty price for good quality earphones from other manufacturers only to be disappointed with performance and durability"

"horrible mistake and would recommend purchasing a better for slightly more"

"bassy quite muddy missing some mids and average highs"

"do not bother buying"

"i bought these as a cheap stop gap for my annual dose of blocking the horrible sounds of other people out for 2 hours on a train to london"

"i don't write a lot of reviews but after what i thought would be an unmitigated disaster i had to come to rate these bad boys five stars"

"they're the worst earphones i've bought"

"the biggest problem was always a tangled wire as i would often rip it off and one headphone would not work annoying if you listen to music!"

"so after all the trial and error and using an equalizer they're sounding quite decent but would definitely say the treble is quite harsh whatever the tip"

"when i find my peace disturbed on the bus or train by a fellow passenger's leaky earphones which clearly don't work properly i shall have to restrain myself from telling them about betron b 25s and why they should get a pair"

"they get quite cold because of this so be warned when putting them into your ears on a cold day!"

"my verdict: these are cheap and if you need a replacement fast because your current pair is broken or just too crappy and don't have enough time to read reviews and ponder on which earphone to buy have these as a temporary filler"

"i havent tested them out while running but considering that my daily bus ride is extremely bumpy id say they would be fine for running if that's your style"

"these headphones earphones won’t blow you away but they easily compete with my previous purchases from klipsch and pioneer which both cost me in the region of £40 £50"

"one set was brought at christmas 2016 the other pair in jaunary 2016 and so far they have performed perfectly"

"however after wearing for some time i found these to be really uncomfortable"

"i brought them for my recent holiday as i like to watch a film on my phone trouble is because there is there constant drone of the plane engine i am usually struggling to hear the film and it's pointless however this was not a problem with these eat phones the volume was"

"i bought these headphones due to the positive reviews for myself however they are the most irritating headphones i've ever had!"

"the wire gets weirdly stiff after some use but they do have amazing sound quality and the bass is to die for edit : the wire broke today don't use them roughly the wire tubing popped out of the left bud strangely"

"at first they were terrible but then i realised had to change the size of the rubber part they provide you with a variety of sizes but even after i found the right size the sound was better but still bad"

"furthermore i didn’t need to send them the old pair of headphones that were broken back which would have been very difficult "

"within the first 100m of walking while using these yesterday just after they had arrived the intermittent crackle and hiss became permanent and was as horrible to hear as it was disappointing"

"i really cannot fault these the only person who does not like them is our dog as he is getting walked so much more as i can now enjoy my music on the move"

"furthermore i didn’t need to send them the old pair of headphones that were broken back which would have been very difficult "

"tinny uncomfortable top heavy and generally crap"

"a light nudge on the jack or line causes crackling or silence so if you are sitting down listening to an audiobook they would probably be sufficient but there are probably other earphones out there that do the same job for less money"

"however i was wrong these earphones produce a much clearer sound than the classic apple earphones that most people own the sound quality and noise cancellation is the best i've heard"

"not peaceful or restful and this was a cardiac ward not bedlam!"

"i use these with an mp3 player noise rejection quite very good especially if you push them hard into the ear to get the best possible seal sound quality extremely good astonishing bass price low well worth taking a chance on overall excellent much better than you might expect for the price"

"after wasting money on various different earphones i bought these ones based on others' reviews stating how good they were for the price and also in terms of the noise cancelling quality"

"the headphones were up to basic headphone standard the noise cancelling isn’t life changing or anything but do cancel out more than average headphones"

"the headphones themselves have a very good sound and are lovely to listen to music too the only issue i can find is the bass being too loud sometimes which muffles all the other sound"

"what suprises me the most is that both ears are still working fine at their max volume 1 year and 2 months later most 10 quid earphones fall apart after a few hours ive had 7 pairs of sienheisser in ear where one ear has failed within 6 months so i have a good headset for stationary and good quality music and a cheap pair of in ears for mobility rather than waste quadrupple the price on good in ears like jbls skullcandies and sienhiessers that break immediately"

"i have had several over the years and always the wires go hard which is a massive shame"

"perhaps i've been unfortunate but at least i can vouch for the sound quality and how much sound it can block for earphones"

"99 as a second set to live in my backpack in case i forgot to bring my more expensive daily drivers out with me"

"these headphones have a fairly good sound with an obvious and somewhat overzealous emphasis on bass"

"they're still disappointing"

"my husband bought these for me because i am getting ready to start a degree and we live in noisy neighbourhood i must say they do exactly what i expect them to do"

"i guess the good reviewers for this product must have inferior ears or just haven't heard good sound quality before"

"for this reason i usually buy cheap earphones"

"feeling very mislead after spending my hard earned money on this product would highly recommend looking for a different brand with a higher level of quality as there are many better headphones at the same price point"

"they do an excellent job of blocking out the noise of people typing texts on their phones with keypad tones on crying babies and even the disapproving mutterings of city workers who couldn't stretch to a first class ticket"

"in less than 8 months i'm already at my third pair as my previous two had suffered from sound output and connection problems while another had fallen apart through use"

"the selection of earbuds provided allowed me to find the perfect fit for my ears and these headphones truly do cancel out nearly all external sound perfect when working in a noisy environment"

"just plain old rubbish don't bother"

"the sound was pretty awful initially but after much wrangling for solutions managed to find some fluff in the headphone socket of my phone and once that was removed the sound was now tolerable"

"absolute nightmare"

"even sitting or just walking along i constantly have to readjust them and put them back in my ears as the weight and rigidity of the cables have forced them out"

"perhaps i've just been very unlucky and received faulty ones in a mostly perfect batch but imo just fork out a bit more for something that can withstand more than two weeks"

"i've bought from this company before and have never been disappointed so when i needed replacement earbuds i decided to check these out"

"as well as this i assumed there were in line controls for the headphones but after opening the packaging it's apparently just a decorative lump where the two headphone cables join would've cost pennies to add a few buttons here"

"i've had cheap senheisers which were better detailed in the highs but lacked bass and were cheaper build quality so these although not perfect they are very good value overall and the cable itself seems like it will last"

"i swapped them for my usual panasonic earphones which were about the same price and they seemed much better balanced"

"on the plane these were decent at blocking out noise although one of the first annoyances was the cable noise"

"edit sept 2019 four years on and i am still buying these headphones every time they break"

"you will hear deep bass much clearer without crackle or ringing sounds and high pitched tones are gentle there were parts of songs i never even noticed existed until i had truly heard them with these earphones and i used the apple iphone earphones beforehand"

"i bought these as a replacement for a pair of sony earphones that eventually fell apart after a decade of faithful service"

"i thought maybe mine were faulty but looking at the other low reviews this seems to be common so either the quality control isn't very good or there's a lot of fake reviews"

"i have not attempted working out with them because it would be impossible!"

"hi i lost my very expensive ear phones"

"also they don't leak noise like some headphones so you keep your music to yourself"

"i was then asked to write a review of the product i don't like leaving negative reviews so i wasn't so sure"

"these betron were to be for connecting to an mp3 player whilst walking through the noisy city"

"good quality sound comfortable and nice wiring until it gets stiff later down the line"

"the rubber ear plugs effectively seal out most extraneous noise"

"no such problem with betron honestly!"

"still i'd highly recommend to make good use of the pouch for transporting in your pocket the plastic covers for the ears don't retract compress so easily unlike others i've used so they'll happily stick into your thighs if you have tight pockets"

"actually i was wrong water did not make any damage or any difference within sound quality and that made me so surprised even though there was no information about product being waterproof which means it never was!"

"the metal shell started coming apart and it used to give me static electric shock in my ear when i would insert them sometimes which makes me think these are really cheaply made"

"it's a big sound thick note presentation and deep bass which will do well for edm style music but i fund it overbearing and slow"

"also the metal feels cold when first put in your ear but warms up with the heat of your body and soon feels little hot"

"i bought them about 4 or 5 months ago and they still have the quality in them that they did when i first opened the packet despite my admittedly rough way of storing them i"

"these looked great at first but after only 5 uses the sound quality started getting worse and after onky a couole more uses on of the sides stopped working completely"

"niggles: head units are a little large heavy i'm talking relatively here "

"one major problem is that on average the product has a lifespan of 3 4 months before either one or both insert earphones stop working"

"to be fair it did do a decent job of blocking out 2 lawnmowers and i know i was expecting a lot for £10 but some of the photos do make it look like the outside of the earphone contains a microphone when it's just a bit of plastic that looks like a mic"

"i previously purchased earphones from then and kept having problems"

"they didn't disappoint at all from the moment i got the packaging and would definitely repurchase them really isolated other noises around me gym airport flights cafe "

"i have really small ears so those 'sporty' type styles with the part that hooks over your ear to hold them in place just doesn't work they always fall off and i end up having to force the in ear part further into my ear just to keep them on very uncomfortable!"

"i've had much better quality sound from samsung earphones which they supply with their phones or can be bought for around £3 i'm almost inclined to believe these are faulty as the sound from them is that underwhelming"

"have been using these earphones for years now because they are in my opinion the best value for money and amazing quality i've spent double this and got half the quality and duration these earphones are honestly the best money can buy without spending £40+"

"as for wear and tear they have took some punishment far more than most of the earphones i have bought and i have spent more than double on higher end models"

"terrible headphones i'm so sorry i've missed the opportunity to return them"

"on the plane these were decent at blocking out noise although one of the first annoyances was the cable noise"

"they're also quite heavy and bulky and the weight makes them fall out easily unless you jam them right into the ear canal"

"i bought these by mistake as i got myself somewhat lost clicking link after link looking for the right noise cancellation earphones"

"i brought them for my recent holiday as i like to watch a film on my phone trouble is because there is there constant drone of the plane engine i am usually struggling to hear the film and it's pointless however this was not a problem with these eat phones the volume was"

"the sound of the tv programme is not completely eliminated at low volume levels"

"* the noise isolation is pretty decent as to be expected from most in ear headphones they let louder sources through just as well but do a pretty good job of cutting conversational levels of background chatter"

"found my old earphones were lacking clarity"

"unfortunately i've had 2 sets develop a fault after about 6 months use both due to the same design flaw"

"dumped th first pair as i thought it was faulty but th second pair is doing the same thing"

"although because there is no microphone it’s more difficult but not impossible obviously to know which is left or right"

"build quality: they lose points here"

"contact customer service about it because the product has a one year warranty and they may send you a replacement if you return the defective ones"

"duration is not good"

"as many people do i bought these on the strength of other reviews but am sadly disappointed"

"the only issue is that it wont last very long if you're a constant user"

"however sadly due to the lack of covering around wire near the earpiece area ive found it isn't long before the plastic comes out exposing the actual wire and causing the earpiece to stop working"

"most minor or problems and hardly noticeable disappears when something is playing 11 10"

"is nice they come with a carrring pouch and spare earbuds for larger ears or smaller ones"

"i suspect a slight manufacturing issue with my pair"

"the sealing between the jack and the wire tends to become weak after 3 weeks i've had a few of these models "

"given i paid under a tenner for them and the only more effective alternative is bulky extremely expensive noise cancelling headphones they are a great choice"

"these headphones would better suit audio books as the base and wack ass lows would make the talker a little more defined but nothing aside from that and for heavens sake dont use these for any professional manner"

"the sound was pretty awful initially but after much wrangling for solutions managed to find some fluff in the headphone socket of my phone and once that was removed the sound was now tolerable"

"ok first of all after 2 years of my bose true sounds earphones serving me great unfortunately they gave up on me!"

"cant move head too much at lower volume as they are so flimsy that you can hear them folding moving in you ear"

"just a quick review regarding these little earbuds yep do a good job with my i pad sending me off to sleep in no time i do go thru a lot of these ear buds in a year though no fault of any particular seller or make just me turning over in my sleep sometimes drags the i pad off it's desk and the easiest"

"tried these little beauties and even whilst mowing the lawn or vacuuming i only use 75% volume and its crystal clear"

"i initially wrote a poor review of these but having spent more time with them i need to correct this slightly and explain the good bad better in my opinion "

"used the earphones for less than a week and the one ear is already broken"

"also the back is slightly bent which seems like it's unstable as i've been super careful with them"

"overall apart from some minor gripes it is a solid quality budget set of in ear headphones"

"just a shame about the whole listening experience being miserable"

"the packaging threw me off course as i didn't expect a cheap headphone will be well packaged"

"i've had cheap senheisers which were better detailed in the highs but lacked bass and were cheaper build quality so these although not perfect they are very good value overall and the cable itself seems like it will last"

"good over noise quality and they stayed in ear even through some hard snowboarding"

"these fall out easily when you're moving about"

"it says noise isolating"

"most frail part of the connection is normally the bud end which after a few twangs of strain will disconnect from soldered end of mini speaker solution: headphones or sod the neighbours lol!"

"only small criticism is that whilst it states compatible with iphone you do need an adapter and this isn’t very clear"

"as to the sound it's fine for the reason i chose them which is to exercise in the gym and being able to listen to my choice of music not the incessant techno rubbish they put out over the gym's speakers"

"don't waste your money on headphones that cost £100+ when these are a million times better"

"not sure why they didnt use a rubber sleeve so you can move it up so the ear pieces are kept together when rolling the cable up after use"

"last 5 years i've bought an almost endless supply of cheap chinese imitation apple earphones"

"they just lack the punch"

"sound quality was tinny and always sounded way too high"

"i like these earphones a lot they do exactly what they claim to noise cancelling in an ever busy noisy world are a godsend to someone like me who loves peace and quiet"

"however sadly due to the lack of covering around wire near the earpiece area ive found it isn't long before the plastic comes out exposing the actual wire and causing the earpiece to stop working"

"but the truth is these come nowhere as close as the sound quality of basic apple earphones"

"like every two minutes one would come loose or fall out"

"i don't believe these do have noise cancellation though as background noise is only reduced as much as you'd expect from shoving rubber earbuds in your ears"

"i have tried all the different rubber attachments to see which make them fit my ears the best and i must say none of them do"

"99 they were unlikely to be any kind of decent quality but i keep breaking and losing my headphones as i use them for cycling etc alot"

"while not completely noise cancelling they are as advertised "noise isolating " blocking out much of the sound around you aside from loud music or conversations"

"my son has a habit of breaking earphones with alarming regularity they don't make them like they used to i suppose mine lasted for 3 years with me just a weekend when i lent them to him not this brand "

"sound is impressive for the price but at full volume i did hear a loud car exhaust over my music recently"

"only couple minor criticisms e"

"the metal shell is very heavy so it is difficult to get them to stay in"

"sadly the left side broke after 3 months"

"terrible packaging that looks ancient"

"i've had a few pairs in time including really expensive ones and these are as good if not better than all of them they look good with a metal effect wire and solid looking ear pieces sound quality is excellent and probably better than my old expensive pair"

"and then they fell out"

"also i was in a bay with other ladies including snorers and ones who needed attention during the night regularly along with people yelling in other bays because he was in with a snorer too"

"if you're like me and you just want a second pair of headphones that doesn't break the bag in case of emergencies then really you can't fault these little in ears"

"so i won't be using these down the gym again maybe just at home when i can sit still and not risk them falling out all the time"

"the item i purchased also falls out of the ears quite easily too sound clarity is not great and i just can't seem to get on with them"

"i brought these after getting disappointed after my wireless earbuds i recently purchased failed to work"

"i’ve been buying sennhieser for about 10 years now & these are just as good for a quarter of the price"

"however i probably won't be buying betrons again"

"bought these before a long haul flight and although the dreamliner is quieter than other planes still couldn't hear any external noise actually missed the pilot's announcement!"

"while not really 'noise isolating' as they are simply in ear and more like ear plugs rather than active noise cancelling they are pretty decent for the cheap price"

"i brought them for my recent holiday as i like to watch a film on my phone trouble is because there is there constant drone of the plane engine i am usually struggling to hear the film and it's pointless however this was not a problem with these eat phones the volume was"

"i genuinely only think these survived so long thanks to the metallic construction"

"so far these have made it through spring downfalls which is where others gave up the ghost"

"however immediately testing them for first time i could tell they weren't up to scratch and were simply cheapo quality but given a fairly fancy looking exterior or at least looks good in product photos "

"the sound quality is a little lacking in bass but i think this is a universal issue in this price range"

"also the small speaker is incredible value "

"feeling very mislead after spending my hard earned money on this product would highly recommend looking for a different brand with a higher level of quality as there are many better headphones at the same price point"

"finding good quality but cheap headphones can be difficult however these certainly tick the box"

"my samsung earphones that came with my phone we're dreadful at isolating noise so i could hardly hear anything on my phone or tablet when flying"

"the connecting cable is tougher than anything else apart from my syncwire charging cables and the design of the back of the earbud is less prone to damage or wera and tear"

"had several failed deliveries including a recent order which was recorded as being delivered and was nowhere to be found with no response from amazon when i reported that the product was not delivered "

"they are easy to break and very fragile"

"not dubstep tho never dubstep"

"despite this it is not ideal to have to request one every 4 months due to a failing product time and again"

"5 years of using them in bed pretty much every night falling asleep and mangling them running in the rain generally abusing them"

"sound quality is ok but the pieces are just slotted together and made of cheap plastic so it falls apart"

"to avoid this i have to balance the headphone just infront of my ear cannel which negates the whole point of the “ear plug” design of the headphones"

"however if you want a decent pair of earphones that will last you and you appreciate a well balanced sound don't touch this with a mile long jack"

"for the price of the headphones i was not expecting too much so i put a drop of superglue on the plastic and glued the metal cover back"

"but after a couple of months you will probably replace them during that time you will enjoy some really good sound"

"maybe a little too weighted on the low end but given 5 stars because i’m taking into account the price"

"in addition one pair we bought is no longer usable as the wire is now exposed where it comes out of the plug so the sound quality and level is drastically reduced"

"i use headphones every day: music to and from work gym weekends long walks on the phone "

"only downside is they dont have a microphone but for this price i really cant complain"

"i can't complain for the price but based on the 3 000+ positive i guess i had higher expectations"

"at first they were terrible but then i realised had to change the size of the rubber part they provide you with a variety of sizes but even after i found the right size the sound was better but still bad"

"unfortunately after thirteen months of me falling asleep and getting tangled up in them my b25's have finally expired "

"i only need to listen to them on 1 or 2 volume to get the volume i like which isn't really really loud as i'm a bit sensitive to sounds but instead it's enough to get rid of the outside sounds and enjoy my music "

"the headphones are completely sealed so when you insert the headphone into your ear you can hear the speaker pop and crackle as the vacuum pressure inside your ear pushes back on the speaker"

"they are very comfortable and come with a selection of sizes in a bag along with them that you can then use to store your earphones if you choose to which i only do when i am storing them somewhere in my room or somewhere over night "

"absolutely no base treble and mid is way to high and it says that they cancel out noise but it sounds as if you aren’t wearing headphones at all"

"what suprises me the most is that both ears are still working fine at their max volume 1 year and 2 months later most 10 quid earphones fall apart after a few hours ive had 7 pairs of sienheisser in ear where one ear has failed within 6 months so i have a good headset for stationary and good quality music and a cheap pair of in ears for mobility rather than waste quadrupple the price on good in ears like jbls skullcandies and sienhiessers that break immediately"

"don't wrap the cable round the mp3 when not in use as it will eventually damage the inner wiring!"

"i don't know if i recieved a faulty pair but after about a week only one side was making any sound"

"you will hear deep bass much clearer without crackle or ringing sounds and high pitched tones are gentle there were parts of songs i never even noticed existed until i had truly heard them with these earphones and i used the apple iphone earphones beforehand"

"hopefully this set of earphones will be of a higher standard since the last pair may have been abnormal"

"🤣🤣 so i know the noise cancellation works and the volume control"

"sadly the left side broke after 3 months"

"falls out from ears"

"this is the 5th pair bought within 3 months for my daughter i never asked questions when she keeps asking for a new pair as they stopped working again"

"my verdict: these are cheap and if you need a replacement fast because your current pair is broken or just too crappy and don't have enough time to read reviews and ponder on which earphone to buy have these as a temporary filler"

"comfort if it's simply comfortable to wear or if it could hurt your ears after a certain amount of time while wearing them different types of volume high low 4"

"but once i had received the product i soon found out that they definitely did not live up to these claims at least most of them the sound quality definitely reflects the price of these headphones with a heavy lean on treble and lacking in bass and mids"

"edit: these headphones finally failed after 1"

"ps only con i can think of is that there’s is a slight buzz when plugged in and nothing is playing"

"these headphones have been a disappointment for me"

"the sound especially noticeable in the bus and train was louder than my previous earphones at the same volume indicator"

"after reading a lot of good reviews and also bad reviews i thought i would try these"

"these headphones would better suit audio books as the base and wack ass lows would make the talker a little more defined but nothing aside from that and for heavens sake dont use these for any professional manner"

"the base is poor the sound feels distant and muted there is no sound isolation and they are uncomfortable"

"they don't sound cheap or particularly nasty"

"i used to go through earphones at the rate of one a month"

"so i decided to pay more hoping they would last sometime"

"strong cable doesn’t get tangled"

"got 2 pairs and here is my honest and similar review for both pairs metal part of earphones are not insulated and hence it gives me shock due to static charge in the ears when walking or jogging"

"no volume adjust but that is advertised so can’t fault it on that but it would be nice"

"not awful mind and i imagine that if you didn't have an ear for audio mix downs you wouldn't care but for me it just sounds bad"

"i bought these as a replacement for a pair of sony earphones that eventually fell apart after a decade of faithful service"

"the base is poor the sound feels distant and muted there is no sound isolation and they are uncomfortable"

"i have a range of headphones ranging from mega cheap 99p ones to branded expensive ones £200+ which i use for different things"

"i'd suggest just go for some basic sony in ears for the same price and don't bother with this brand update: after three weeks now the left headphone has started intermittently cutting out curious about when it finally dies"

"also these feel weird in the ear: most of the weight seems to be angled outwards towards the rear of the earphone"

"had several failed deliveries including a recent order which was recorded as being delivered and was nowhere to be found with no response from amazon when i reported that the product was not delivered "

"nevertheless it was enjoyable to use on a day to day basis however its biggest downfall the durability is so poor it only lasted me three months improvements need to be made in quality testing and material choice by the manufacturer as a good seller i hope you take this feedback and provide this information to the manufacturing and improve your quality"

"i've had these earphones before the only negative thing i can say is that the wires get a bit stiff after a lot of use"

"however i won't buy them again"

"one major problem is that on average the product has a lifespan of 3 4 months before either one or both insert earphones stop working"

"i've been buying betron headphones earphones for a number of years but this is around the point where i'm probably going to start shopping around for alternative brands as this pair have lasted me around three months in total before getting sound dropping issues when the right side cable isn't in a certain position"

"i wear these for commuting and i am usually pretty careful however the plastic inside the gold trim yes i got the gold ones cracked which means that the jack itself is crooked something i have never had happen on any jack before usually its the wires that go first"

"they make the treble and all the high frequency sounds way louder than everything else songs i normally like hurt my ears even on very quiet volume"

"i bought these by mistake as i got myself somewhat lost clicking link after link looking for the right noise cancellation earphones"

"the first pair i lost"

"what suprises me the most is that both ears are still working fine at their max volume 1 year and 2 months later most 10 quid earphones fall apart after a few hours ive had 7 pairs of sienheisser in ear where one ear has failed within 6 months so i have a good headset for stationary and good quality music and a cheap pair of in ears for mobility rather than waste quadrupple the price on good in ears like jbls skullcandies and sienhiessers that break immediately"

"i've paid a lot more for earphones that have been far inferior to these so i'm very pleased with them"

"l and r could be more visible but not a lot of people care about those kind of things"

"my only downside is in order to maximise the bass you need to push the earphones deep into your ears but by doing this the bud seems to create a suction within your ear canal which is quite uncomfortable"

"cons: * the cable is not long enough"

"it has not moved since"

"they have lots of ear bud sizes and they come in a lovely little bag but other than that i wouldn't buy again"

"very disappointed"

"my boy loves them can't fault them really good bargain at the time of the purchase"

"million times better than all the fake airpods on amazon with fake reviews"

"right now im in the process of returning them"

"only problem i have with them is that they don’t cancel much noise unless you turn them up loud"

"they don't actually block out extraneous sound anymore than the cheap ones that come with an iphone but the sound quality and weight of the sound is such that it mostly overcomes this you can hear through it so to speak!"

"i am scared of losing them though!"

"the main problem is the poor connection with my android phone"

"the sound is a bit too low but the biggest problem is the microphone is unusable"

"then the left one stopped working"

"the sound quality is not that good"

"one of the worst investments i have made"

"battery seems to last for ever and you always have extra charge in the case"

"bluetooth connectivity is disappointing as well: my phone detected the airpods but once disconnected i didn't managed to pair them again"

"shame about the slight imperfection"

"siri voice activation works fine for me too the music volume dips and you just speak"

"i have a small issue with them falling out of my ears but i think it must be something about my ears because other family members who have them never have problems with them falling out"

"however neither of these are massive problems certainly not given the positives and the price tag"

"i had the same issue with another pair hat i had"

"but that’s the apple issue so not rating the sender down :"

"million times better than all the fake airpods on amazon with fake reviews"

"only small gripe is they do tend to slip out of the ears a little bit and i do mean a little bit there's no danger of them falling out but pushing them back in does up the volume a little bit"

"when i spoke with apple they were fairly dismissive of the issue and put it down to user error!"

"i've never felt the need to push the volume to full even when travelling on public transport or when using in a reasonably noisy office"

"but despite this if you crank them up even in noisy environs like the gym train etc they still sound very good"

"they don't actually block out extraneous sound anymore than the cheap ones that come with an iphone but the sound quality and weight of the sound is such that it mostly overcomes this you can hear through it so to speak!"

"i tried these on classical music with mahler's second symphony and they sounded epic making the finale of the piece really full and meaty i also tried the with some brass band black dyke band playing metropolis 1927 and they made the band sound full and fruity and today at work i've had on some rush a show of hands peter gabriel so!"

"they all have one thing in common they either break fail to pair etc or they are a pain to get synched to your phone if you lose connection"

"i’ll admit this was some of the most expensive tech i’ve purchased"

"i dislike full noise cancellation products but these earpods have just enough while not blocking out everything around me important as i use them most when out and about commenting etc so gentle awareness of my environment is important"

"'hey siri' works well but the double tap required to pause playing or answer a phone call is rather more fiddly than the single press on the control of the wired buds"

"i bought this product few months ago and hardly used it now regretting already one of the airpod has stopped working checked charging but it wouldn't work"

"if you like apple don't buy a cheap alternative save up and get these"

"the only slightly weaker issue is that the microphone is not a brilliant standard meaning that when taking or making calls i have had a couple of instances where people have struggled to make me out"

"whilst to me there are somewhat expensive for my 16 year old niece they are the bee's knees & could not be better"

"the sound quality if you’re an extreme audiophile these may not be the best headphones for you"

"gutted and disappointed as wasted my money"

"dont order!"

"noice cancellation is perfect but they aren’t in ear headphones so expected"

"it was left out in the open for anyone to see but it's not the company fault"

"i resisted getting these as frankly the beats earbuds are junk and break and awful service from apple"

"i’ve had many earphones to use with my iphone and ipad nothing of them come close to the apple air buds crystal clear sound can walk around the house without losing the sound and connected to the bluetooth straight away on my iphone and ipad i would recommend rhe apple air buds to anyone who wants continue music"

"the main problem is the poor connection with my android phone"

"ridiculous connection issues needing hard resets"

"i dislike full noise cancellation products but these earpods have just enough while not blocking out everything around me important as i use them most when out and about commenting etc so gentle awareness of my environment is important"

"so far so good the only thing that was bad was that i paid £6 for delivery to only have them deliver to the wrong house and they didn’t leave a card or anything and stated that they were delivered to my house luckily it was my neighbour but delivery wasn’t even attempted at my house but this isn’t apples"

"present for my daughter’s birthday and her main present does not work"

"these little fellas were bought for christmas for my son"

"then discovered that you can get the iphone to play a lost sound!"

"this makes it uncomfortable slightly"

"by end of january the were not working anymore"

"i’ve used just a couple times and unfortunately amazon said i missed the return window"

"ridiculous connection issues needing hard resets"

"the only aspect i've found less helpful than having wired earbuds is the controls"

"my advice if you have an iphone only buy apple"

"total night and day compared to some of the many cheaper "true wireless" devices and their tinny thin sounding poor audio"

"the top of the charging box was very loose and the airpods had a sharp edge around them"

"once opened the airpods case and airpods were missing"

"the benefit of having wireless headphones is they will hopefully last longer as there are no cables to get tangled and break"

"usually they start flickering and the left one stops working"

"they are comfortable and good sound quality only reason i gave it 2 stars is that there is some sort of problem internally as everytime i pause my music or watch a video while my music is playing the sound volume goes to max giving me headaches and sore ears which is a shame for a expensive pair of earphones"

"the case wobbles side to side and the hands free siri activation don’t work"

"i purchased a set of apple airpods as an alternative to using my excellent but somewhat bulky b&o headphones when i travel on the train into london for regular everyday use if you will"

"i will of course return it again and ask for refund or try with the apple support but my advice do not buy apple airpod on amazon !"

"the left airpod runs out of battery within minutes while the right one has full charge sent off to get repaired and they send back saying they couldn’t find anything wrong with it clearly they didn’t even bother looking!"

"i narrowed it down to being a problem with oneplus 6t and the airpods 2nd gen not being compatible after an update i assume"

"battery status of the case and pods show up on the screen of your phone and even give them a name which you can change via phone settings"

"they worked great until after two weeks they would fail to connect"

"quality is generally poor and you owe it to your ears to give them what they deserve"

"when i conect them with my iphone the sound is really good but the microphone is just okay as several people have complained of noise when they talk to me"

"can’t go wrong with apple"

"poor show really !"

"couldn’t complain especially with the special price offers at the time of £125!"

"previously deemed airpods unnecessary saw them as an overpriced accessory to flaunt wealth however after my previous bluetooth headphones broken i took the plunge on airpods as they fit so well with the apple ecosystem and now"

"i was worried that as they don't contain rubber buds to fit into your ear that they might feel loose or in danger of falling out but the shape means that they are perfectly stable and can be work while running and never feel like they might pop out"

"all in all i wouldn't be so disappointed in them had they have not been so expensive not on par with usual apple quality"

"he was extremely disappointed on christmas day to find that he was not able to connect the airpods to his iphone"

"the only slightly weaker issue is that the microphone is not a brilliant standard meaning that when taking or making calls i have had a couple of instances where people have struggled to make me out"

"just sometimes it falls off from my ear"

"i was dubious about these even though the world seems to be wearing them"

"i got these for the gf personally i wouldn't have gone for them as they are ridiculously overpriced and i wouldn't want to look like one of those gormless fools that walks around with them in all day"

"total night and day compared to some of the many cheaper "true wireless" devices and their tinny thin sounding poor audio"

"the case is a charger so you can get away for long periods without charge"

"i read the reviews prior to purchase so was a little anxious after some of them"

"when i spoke with apple they were fairly dismissive of the issue and put it down to user error!"

"so i cancelled the exchange"

"previously i went through 1 pair of earphones every 2 months as the cables wires would weaken with everyday use while walking etc"

"apple says there is nothing wrong with them"

"usually they start flickering and the left one stops working"

"i think i’m fairly average but these feel like they are going to fall out at any moment"

"bought these after all other ear phones kept falling out when i ran"

"disappointed with product based on cost"

"but despite this if you crank them up even in noisy environs like the gym train etc they still sound very good"

"walking around i don't feel as though they're going to fall out either"

"you need some kind of hooks to retain them in your ear"

"i’ve only used them once for a workout and they kept falling out but bought some silicone covers for them"

"the sound is a bit too low but the biggest problem is the microphone is unusable"

"like most apple products these are designed to just ‘work’ without any unnecessary fuss"

"i will of course return it again and ask for refund or try with the apple support but my advice do not buy apple airpod on amazon !"

"they all have one thing in common they either break fail to pair etc or they are a pain to get synched to your phone if you lose connection"

"with all their fancy user experience babble surely apple could enable swipe to change volume?"

"not cheap but then it’s a typical well designed and made apple product"

"with all their fancy user experience babble surely apple could enable swipe to change volume?"

"does what i expected arrived within a week not noise cancelling at all a bit expensive for what you are getting but i have hardly taken them out since buying them"

"was scared they might be fake"

"i’m really sorry but this product isn’t good at all for me"

"it keeps giving me static noises that i can't change"

"i’ve had many earphones to use with my iphone and ipad nothing of them come close to the apple air buds crystal clear sound can walk around the house without losing the sound and connected to the bluetooth straight away on my iphone and ipad i would recommend rhe apple air buds to anyone who wants continue music"

"i have never seen the airpods till now and once i opened the always classy box i was met with this little gem of a case which held the airpods and once opened i was amazed by the little earphones and how clever the case was"

"they all seem to be the ones that go right in your ears and i can't wear those i have quite sensitive ears and have never got on with them"

"bought for my daughter i was surprised at the amazing sound generated from such a small headphone"

"i initially wrote a bad review as i thought i'd been sent a charging case that didn't work"

"not much to say here other than if you like airpods then these are for you i'm not sure the additional gen 2 features are all that much to sing about so if buying for the first time you may at least get these gen 2 pair rather than gen 1"

"my personality not enough bass"

"whilst to me there are somewhat expensive for my 16 year old niece they are the bee's knees & could not be better"

"as it’s slow and not worth it"

"i think my ears are not the best shape for these ear buds as they can fall out"

"so if these hold up and do not break these are the ones to go for"

"my right airpod broke for no reason after four months of owning this item"

"they are very pricey for what they are but i had some birthday money so i treated myself but i was so hesitant at first but i deffo recommend!"

"no reasons or excuses"

"as good as other apple earphones but without the wires"

"when i spoke with apple they were fairly dismissive of the issue and put it down to user error!"

"negatives are that they do let external sounds in unless you turn the volume all the way up"

"went to bluewater outlet in kent only to be told they did not have time and i would have to return 3 days later and wait in a queue"

"earphones life more than a day on a single charge"

"apple replaced this foc"

"good for telephone calls they are okay at eliminating backougrd noise when you are speaking but when you are not speaking some sometimes is caught and is heard by the person on the other end"

"i came home and my my package only had the airpod case and the charger i didn't actually have the airpods that was supposedly coming with it"

"they would not reset i tried everything"

"high chances of loosing it as it can drop from the ear anytime"

"you can't go wrong with an apple product but i do feel that this is overpriced"

"upgrade case to wireless if that’s your cup of tea mine uses a plug i’m not that fussy 🥰 i haven’t shown them because i’m currently listening to them 😂 genuine apple product don’t be shy ☺️ these airpods 2 are life changing let wherever you walk be your runway for free thinking 💭 waist turning hip dipping music but just look out for cars cause the bass on these bad boys are meaty like a sunday roast i have to look 4 times when crossing traffic 🤣😂 peace & love 💕"

"one of the headphone didn’t work properly unfortunately so had to send back for a refund"

"they do not connect or reset"

"i have to clean these nearly everyday otherwise the grill gets all clogged up and you can’t hear it i’ve had them for 3 months and already had to take a trip to apple "

"just as advertised"

"also when this happens the l r earphones will go out of sync"

"the two halfs on one pod are no quite matched smooth but honestly they are still pretty good and not worth me returning"

"i went through cheap ear buds huawei rip offs of airpods and nothing is matching overall feeling that i get while using these airpods"

"the left airpod runs out of battery within minutes while the right one has full charge sent off to get repaired and they send back saying they couldn’t find anything wrong with it clearly they didn’t even bother looking!"

"sent them back so disappointed i love apple but these were so disappointing"

"they are very good i heard details in the music i hadn’t heard before"

"a small led on the outside or a permanent view on your phone would not go amiss"

"great product but please note they are not the latest model"

"they hold connection never heard a dropout"

"i’ve had many earphones to use with my iphone and ipad nothing of them come close to the apple air buds crystal clear sound can walk around the house without losing the sound and connected to the bluetooth straight away on my iphone and ipad i would recommend rhe apple air buds to anyone who wants continue music"

"whilst to me there are somewhat expensive for my 16 year old niece they are the bee's knees & could not be better"

"i have to admit that the little apple eco system works amazingly although i am not convinced the entry price into the eco system is actually worth the jump"

"the sound from the airpods is the same from the wired apple earphones personally can’t hear difference"

"one of the pods does not charge consistently meaning i often return to them to find one is flat whereas the other is fully charged"

"with an iphone and ipad they connected immediately although i do sometimes get a red exclamation mark on one of them which doesnt seem to stop it connecting"

"i have a small issue with them falling out of my ears but i think it must be something about my ears because other family members who have them never have problems with them falling out"

"i was very sceptical about wireless headphones due to the issues of brain fry but i guess i can't keep my tinfoil hat on all the time"

"the only slightly weaker issue is that the microphone is not a brilliant standard meaning that when taking or making calls i have had a couple of instances where people have struggled to make me out"

"then again this is apple not expecting anything other than an overpriced price tag"

"don’t often write reviews but these headphones warrant it"

"i just received the 2nd airpod and still the same !"

"save yourself the panic and religiously put them away"

"everyone will be different won’t they!"

"but received a completely different cheap pair of earphones"

"they replaced the earpod for us"

"sent them back so disappointed i love apple but these were so disappointing"

"put off buying these for a while thinking other expensive models would be better however after sending 2 versions back decided to go with pods and never looked back"

"it keeps giving me static noises that i can't change"

"quality is generally poor and you owe it to your ears to give them what they deserve"

"well worth the money in the past i had bought the cheaper version they were a waste of money much better to pay extra for better quality"

"almost no bass like urbeats 3 which is disappointing considering the amount of money you pay for them"

"the worst part about airpods is cleaning you eventually give up trying to maintain it due how easily they catch dirt"

"if there is a downside to them it’s just like most apple products the price!"

"still not resolved"

"so i thought i'd try a cheaper version of airpods from ebay they were not offical apple ones and i thought how bad could they be?"

"very bad sound insulation as even if the earphones are on low people around you can hear alot"

"i tried many different types beats soundcore libery jabra and others"

"i bought these to use with my pixel android phone as there isn't a proper android manufacturer alternative some features don't work on adnoird but overall it works great and the quality is apple"

"lost one of last pair and could get another pair for not much more than replacing the lost one"

"you can switch what the double tapping each airpod does but the thing i particularly miss is being able to change volume at a touch it can now only be done with 'hey siri' or by taking the phone out which is a shame"

"pretty good at connecting to iphone however on occasion takes a few tries"

"they were so badly build that i have my doubts if they are originals"

"please take note of this before purchasing"

"previously deemed airpods unnecessary saw them as an overpriced accessory to flaunt wealth however after my previous bluetooth headphones broken i took the plunge on airpods as they fit so well with the apple ecosystem and now"

"first of all before you read anymore of this review i have spent over £100 on over ear headphones and they have been pleasurable but the second i played my first song through a pair or airpods i was blown away by the sound quality + comfort!"
