Apple Earphone - Review #002

It was the day when I bought my first ever iPod. It was a silver iPod shuffle that I had purchased for around £32.00. I took my iPod shuffle out of it's packaging. I looked at the iPod and I was quite impressed. I took out everything, but the last thing I took out of the packaging were the small, white apple iPod earphones which you have to have equipped with your iPod to listen to your favorite music...
I carefully studied the earphones after taking them out of the box that they came in with my iPod, and the small clear packet that they came in as well. I couldn't believe that there is much more to just a pair of earphones than I had previously thought...

There were some aspects of the earphones that I studied and realized that they were some of the best earphones I have ever gotten. I was really pleased with the iPod earphones but I just didn't want them to break. I've had lots of earphones and headphones in the past, but I can honestly say that these are some of the best...
Although I got a pair free with my iPod shuffle, I had lost my white Apple iPod earphones when I had been traveling on holiday as I assumed, so I had to buy a single pair from amazon, and they were just as good although they did cost a little more to replace...

Sound Quality

Of course, the sound quality is the most important thing about a pair of earphones. If there was no good sound quality at all then no one would buy any earphones would they?...

Now some people might say that the sound quality that we get from the Apple iPod earphones isn't very good for some reason, but I was extremely pleased with the sound quality I received from these earphones...

The earphones are rubbery which makes them stick into your ears much more easily than the normal and cheap earphones I had bought in previous years. I hate it when you are at the gym or busy doing some work and your earphones fall out of your ear, but these earphones are much more secure in your ears than the usual average pair...

This is the sort of thing that is attracting the younger generations to buy these earphones because the don't fall out and younger people don't have to keep fiddling with them to put them back in during school times which can often make teachers angry, causing iPods to be banned as I have been told...
As for the sound itself, I have noticed that the sound is very clear to your ears and not like any usual pair. These earphones don't have any volume controls on them like some cheaper MP3 earphones do, but you can control the sound on your iPod or your computer...

I always use these small earphones while I am using my iPod as the sound quality is just superb. I always look for a bass sort of sound coming from earphones and that is what made me impressed more than anything, as these earphones really did give me some great bass sounds...
I also find that these earphones block out some other sounds in the room you are in, which again I think is very important because at the end of the day, you just want to listen to your favorite music in the best possible way you can!!!...

The Appearance

When I first took these earphones out of the packet and the small box they came in, I noticed that their wire was a bright white color. The actual earphones themselves which is the part that brings you the sound are white with little Grey bits on them. These earphones are easy to get dirty with finger marks and if you don't look after them properly and they are rubbed against things and they wear them away and they just don't look good anymore, so make sure you clean your earphones regularly because appearance is important to some of you and it is nice to keep things clean, especially if you plan to keep these earphones for a while....

These earphones also have a little pointed metal part at the other end which enables you to plug into your iPod or your computer. This metal part isn't so big and is safely tucked in with a white covering, but the pointed part of them is completely covered when they are entered into your iPod...

These earphones also have a " L " and an " R " sign to direct you to which ear to put the earphones in, L being for left and R being for right. These can come in quite handy when you have your earphones tangled up in a not which is very annoying and uncomfortable, but beware of getting them dirty or of these little directions getting rubbed against things because they can easily disappear after being worn away....

Apple Earphone - Review #001

One of, if not the most recognizable types of earphones available. The white headphones immediately identify them as being iPod earphones, although there seems to be more other brand white ones appearing nowadays.

~~~ Appearance ~~~

Apart from being white with a little touch of grey there isn't anything special or fancy about these. This is enough for me though, as I find them much better looking than normal black earphones.

~~~ Fit & Comfort ~~~

I find them very comfortable in my ears. Some other headphones can be quite scratchy and rough, especially those older ones with the removable padding, but these are nice and smooth.

They fit great as well. I rarely ever find myself having to re-adjust them and even while jogging with them they don't fall out.

The cable running from the earphones to the adapter is also a good length so your ears aren't being pulled downwards.

~~~ Sound ~~~

I'm definitely no expert in this area, but there is absolutely no problem for me. As long as I can hear the music nice and clearly then I'm happy.

If you're looking for them to produce perfect bass as well then you'll probably be disappointed, but I'm not looking for my ears to be thudding so I'm happy.

~~~ Overall ~~~

I'm sure they're not the best on the market, that's why you get them free with your iPod, but for me they do exactly what I want them to: fit comfortably, don't fall out and play music clearly. I've had mines for almost a year now and have no problems with drop in quality or comfort.
