Works great except I frequently work at my desk in back of my computer and the cord is still a bit short to do this.

Price: 5*
Sound: 4*
Comfort: 3*

The big external bit means that, if the cord gets snagged on something, the whole thing comes smoothly out of my ear instead of being painfully yanked out, which is a big plus

I really only care about my buds lasting since I'm not very picky about audio quality that much and would rather see the stuff I buy actually last.

These ones did pretty good on that regard. Lasted 9 months, but I'm pretty sure they only stopped working because I was a bit careless and caused damage/fatigue at the joint where the cable meets the audio jack, so the ones I had failed earlier today.

Only caveats I would pay attention to:
? If you don't already, wear this over your ear instead of having the cable go straight down. They're much more comfortable this way, plus they don't fall out as easily.
? The ones I got specifically weren't very bass heavy and I had to set up equalizer settings on my computer and my phone to make it not sound very treble-y, and the sound balance was off (the left side was weak), but neither of those are that big of an issue to deal with. Based on the other reviews I saw at the time, I think it's safe to assume that I was just the one unlucky guy who got the outlier.

If you're looking for low-cost earbuds that'll just do the job for you, these are a decent choice.

I've owned several pairs of these, and I'm hard on them! On average they last a year of daily use, through my rough handling and at least a couple cycles in the wash. They sound better than earbuds 5x the price, and they're cheap enough to use as stocking stuffers or give away to obnoxious people on the train.
The only downside is my cat likes to chew the braided cord.

These well made earphones, have great sound, a generous length of cord. They have a subdued style that might prevent the attention of someone with sticky hands. The price is good if you do lose them, you can get a replacement.

Comfortable, stay in my ear, and sound very good for the price.

Fantastic little pair of headphones for the price rance. The only thing that males me rate them 4 stars is how hot they are on the highs. Very, very high. Which for sure has its purposes, but not for my specific needs. Still, highly recommended.

Best value for the price. At that price point, you don't even have to worry about losing them.

Cheap and cheerful.

Arrived quick and performed as expected
