Overview
Rediscover your music.
Put on the Apple In-Ear Headphones, select your favorite track, and hear musical details you never knew existed. It's almost like you're experiencing your music for the first time.
Two drivers in each earpiece.
Each earpiece contains two separate high-performance drivers — a woofer and a tweeter — resulting in rich, detailed, and accurate sound reproduction and amazing bass response for all types of music.
Impressive sound isolation.
Choose from three sizes of soft, silicone ear tips for a comfortable, stable fit. When inserted in your ear, they create a seal that blocks outside noise so you can get the most from your music.
Control your iPod.
The control capsule located on the cable of the right earpiece includes a microphone and three buttons. Here's what you can do with this convenient remote:*
- Adjust volume by pressing the + and - buttons.
- Control music and video playback — including play/pause and next/previous — by pressing the center button.
- Record voice memos on supported iPod models.
Steel mesh caps for protection.
Stainless steel mesh caps protect the precision acoustic components from dust and debris. You can remove the caps for cleaning or replace them with an extra set that's included in the box.
This accessory is compatible with the following:
-
iPod classic 120GB
-
iPod nano 4th generation (video)
-
iPod touch 2nd generation
-
iPod shuffle 3rd generation

not good
Written by LT from LONDON
11-Mar-2009
How come people here are saying the sound quality is good? These phones are appallingly tinny and nothing like the old Sennhessie…Read morers I had for half the price. Despite what other people are saying, if you have an iPhone 3G the remote will ONLY pause tracks - so no skipping or volume control, which makes them useless. Don't do it.

Disappointment
Written by CJ from WARWICK
09-Mar-2009
Hello,
As all mac fans, I jumped on the opportunity to buy this product as soon as it came out.
For the first time with Appl…Read moree, I had to go back to the shop only a couple of hours back (as soon as I could come out of the office) to return it.
Don't get me wrong, it blocks outside noise and the sound definition is much better than the original iPhone headphones but for me the problem was that I could hear my steps while walking and hear the rubbing of the cable against my scarf (please do not see anything sexual there ;-)) and I found it really annoying.
I am not sure it was a defect maybe just because of the fact that it blocks the outside noise so well...
I don't know but I thought I'd share my experience of it with you.

Handsfree flawed, doesn't stay in-ear.
Written by BV from Stadhampton

I've tried all three size settings, but the rubber appears to be too flimsy, and shortly after wedging them in my ears, they becom…Read moree loose. I don't think I've got weird ears, as my seinheiser headphones stay in fine.
The handsfree is flawed, because as I've discovered it's very difficult to have a conversation wearing what might as well be ear plugs. I can hear the other person and they can hear me, but it's just very off putting, as you can't hear your own voice properly. Try talking with your fingers in your ears.
The volume doesn't work with the iPhone, why not? What other apple product would you need a mic and a remote for? I had been warned about this from another review, so not too bothered, but just annoying on top of everything else.
Oh but the packaging was great! Whoopee! Yes I like good packaging, and normally with apple products the fancy packaging is the icing on the cake. But the when the product doesn't work, the packaging which you might as well throw away but don't because it's so pretty, is a big kick in the teeth, because you become very aware that you've paid for it.(26 of 32 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 ;)(366 of 416 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.(210 of 253 people found this review useful)
