WILL THESE PLUG DIRECTLY INTO AN IPHONE OR DO YOU NEED A CONNECTOR?
A shopper
on Aug 2, 2019
BEST ANSWER: These earbuds can be use with any device which utilized a 3.5mm headphone jack. Older iPhones have a 3.5mm jack, while the newer iPhones don’t, so you will need a lightning to 3.5mm adapter for the newer iPhones.

You'll need an adapter as they come with a headphone jack.

The description makes me ask if these produce sound that others can hear. In other words, do they work in a way similar to open-back headphones that allow others nearby to hear what you are listening to? When I use earbuds in public, I want privacy and do not want sound to leak out for others to hear.

BEST ANSWER: No, They do not work like open-air headphones. While I don't really blast my music, when wearing them, I do wear them to sleep, sometimes, and my partner does not hear what I'm listening to. They are actually pretty good, and having a nice sound to them…

These earbuds do NOT leak sound to others (hard to be sure, because I'm wearing them, not listening to someone else without mine inserted, but no one has ever mentioned hearing what I am). But they are basically like any other earbud with a foam piece that smooshes tightly into the ear canal. You don't hear outside noise unless it is loud (phone ringing, doorbell, car horn). The construction is supposed to bounce the sound off the back wall and then direct it back toward your eardrum. The actual distance is tiny, but apparently enough to gain some advantage. They work well, have decent bass, and will eventually die (one side stops working), but are cheap enough to repurchase. While they work, they are a very good value-for-money earbud--easy to insert, long-enough cord, tangle free, attractive, and the sound is surprisingly good--more than you would expect from such a reasonable price point.

They are awesome earbuds and no one else can hear to what you are listening to. Everyone in our family loves these ear buds. I am sure you will be happy with them.

What is the length of the cord of these headphones?
Merry P
on Jun 30, 2017
BEST ANSWER: 49" according to my ruler.
I've been REALLY happy with these. I used them for my old iPhone but stopped using them with my iPhone 7, but only because I bought a pair of wireless Bluetooth 'phones for that since the iPhone plug changed. I use the 'phones you asked about when playing my guitars, keyboards, bass, etc. and get GREAT SOUND, none of which comes from my wife complaining it's too loud. :)
Can't beat the price, either!

Are there details on what the button does while these headphones operate in different modes?
A shopper
on Feb 6, 2017
BEST ANSWER: Hello, thank you for your question. Device control will depend on the device being controlled. Typically The button will start and stop music or video when using media, and answer or hangup calls when used for communication. I hope this helps, and of course if you have any more questions feel free to contact us!

Is it possible to order replacement ear tips for these?

BEST ANSWER: I have not seen where Monoprice offers replacement tips. However, I have used tips from both Radio Shack and Comply Foam and both fit. (The Comply Foam ones are more expensive but vastly superior.)

Seriously Impressive
I have been in the business of selling high-end audio for over 20 years. People speak of the law of diminishing returns in audio products, and I suspect you would have to spend much more to hear a slight improvement over these inexpensive earbuds. These are my second pair of Monoprice earbuds (I lost the others), and I am seriously impressed with the quality of Monoprice earbuds, especially these.

3rd pair. I run sound at our church. Have a decent ear for sound quality. These little guys really pull through. For the price, havent seen a better quality for money match. This is my third pair. 1st lasted for years. 2nd I lost.

Well worth the price
I like these earbuds; they have better fidelity than my old ones, and are significantly more efficient (putting out more loudness--I don't need to set my phone's sound level as high with these).

These sound fantastic. They also seem to stay in place better than other earbuds. Unfortunately I seem to have lost my second pair. Probably should buy more before posting this review?

Amazing for the price!
This is my 2nd set. The left ear stopped working after about a year of infrequent use. Never mishandled or abused--just died one day. I ordered these again--at a much better price--because when the did work, they sounded comparable to much more expensive ear buds. So, as long as they last, they are very good. And if they do die, they're not painful to replace. Knowing that in advance, there is not reason not to get these, and maybe replace now and then.

Sound great, amazing for the money!
I have tried many different earbuds over the years, from very cheap ($5) to fairly expensive ($100), and these sound as good as any of them. They may not sound quite as good as some Sennheiser wired earbuds I had a few years ago but pretty close. These sound better than all of the Bluetooth earbuds I have tried. They are a bit bass heavy so if you like a strong low end you will be quite pleased. Cymbals and and high hats come through nicely as well.. There is something about these that is not fatiguing, which is great. Maybe that's the reflective technology. Anyone know of any Bluetooth earbuds that sound like these?
