Apple In-Ear Headphones with Remote and Mic
iPhone 3g and these...

Overall they perform well, nice and loud, crisp and perfect fitting using the mediums for me. For the iPhone, I can confirm the re…Read moremote pauses, skips forward and back, answers/ends calls and the mic works but does not control the volume.
I have been using the Sennheiser CX 300 in-ear buds which are just as comfortable and loud but deliver much more bass.
I compared the same song (Bloc Party's "Better than heaven") using the CX 300's and then the Apple ones, EQ was set to OFF and they both went as loud as each other, the bass was better on the CX 300's but I would say the top end was better on the Apple ones. After adjusting the EQ settings the Apple ones struggled with the bass at high volume.
If it had full functionality with the iPhone (I didn't expect it too) then 4*, then if it delivered more bass without EQ settings, 5*.
Your opinion will vary depending on the type of music you listen too but ultimately these are a good price for twin drive unit in-ear headphones.(17 of 20 people found this review useful)

stunning!!

Just picked these up from the applestore in Brum today.
To clear things up, ALL features EXCEPT VOLUME CONTROL work fine with …Read morethe original Iphone, pause, skip tracks, answer calls, microphone etc all work great, but you can;t control mic or headphone volume.
Fantastic clarity for receiving and talking during calls, a lot better than most bluetooth sets.
Real comfortable and secure fit, much more comfortable than any other phones I've used, and I've used about 10 different sets of phones over the last two years trying to find something that is comfortable and sounds great... and we have a winner!
The sound is fantastic, given that I usually listen on in-ear single driver phones that cost me £120, I really do love the sound from these. Great soundstaging, and the clarity of the top end mixed with the warm and rolling bottom end is great, the 5hz claim I think is pushing it! THESE ARE NOT BASS HEAVY!
I listen mostly to electronic and DNB, and although the bottom end is not that low and thumping, it is still very rich and warm, and very punchy with no distortion, but the level of clarity and detail you hear is amazing, you really can hear so much more detail in tracks than I was used too. Each element is very well defined, unlike the sharpness of some phones, or the mushiness of bass heavy sets, all elements are crystal clear here. I guess the dual drivers really work, hopefully the bottom end will pick up a bit once they're broken in.
Basically for the money, you simply can't beat these phones. Amazing sound quality, loving the extra hands free use, the controls are as simple as you can get and they are very well made. You'll be paying at LEAST double if not treble for the next cheapest dual driver phones on the market. So you really can't go wrong... just a shame they're still white, silver or black would have looked much nicer, especially considering the lack of any white in the current apple product range!!
Looks like Apple finally made a good set of earphones... shocking ;)(289 of 318 people found this review useful)

Starting to Appreciate
Written by CT from Bearsden

Took a bit of getting used too, my ears had been conditioned to the Sennheiser CX300 in-ears, the Apple by comparison are noticeab…Read morely flatter but more natural and very detailed. CX300s are bottom heavy, the Apple unit feels smooth up to the vocal presence range where it comes to life and towards the top end remains pretty sharp. I noticed overall good detail and separation, this should happen with two individual drivers handling different frequency ranges.
Earphones will always be subjective, people have different music tastes but Im really starting to appreciate these earphones and getting away from the artificial sound I had become accustomed too. The fact you have playback control and a mic built in and its barely visible is another winner.(168 of 194 people found this review useful)
