Product Description
Got an iPod or an iPhone? Use an Apple earphone to make a perfect match. The Apple In-ear Headphones with remote and mic allows you to select your favorite track or video, adjust volume, and record voice memos (on selected Ipods). 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. 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. The control capsule located on the cable of the right earpiece includes a microphone and three buttons. It lets you control the volume, music, video playbacks and record voice memos on supported Ipod models. So put on a pair of Apple In-ear Headphones and rediscover your music. Cable length - 3.5 ft (1065 mm) from audio jack to splitter; 1.08 ft (330 mm) to earpiece Weight - 0.4 ounce (10.2 grams) Four-conductor 3.5 mm audio jack The remote and mic are supported only by iPod nano (4th generation), iPod classic (120GB), and iPod touch (2nd generation).

 Not the Apple earphones July 29, 2010
Samuel Litman (Elko, Nevada)
I have already written to the seller, and I hope to get my money back or the correct pair of earphones. I did not receive the correct pair of Apple earphones, as they were a knockoff of them. The remote was not the correct kind, the sound was hollow, with no bass. Unless the seller fulfills my request, I would never order from them again.
 WHOA! July 10, 2010

Initially: To those who believe these earphones are truly incapable of producing adequate bass, "I am with you to a certain extent". The problem regarding this "bad" quality in these phones lays not within the product, but within the audio source. To further explain myself, I am drawing an example in relation to the iPod. Yes, these are Apple earphones intended for listening to exclusively iPods, but that's the problem: iPods are definitely not capable of producing bass; therefore, reflecting that imperfection onto these phones. After switching to the Zune HD, I retained my utilization of these phones, and I instantly noticed the improvement in bass response. Furthermore, I am currently viewing "The Dark Knight" on Blu-Ray with my new HP Dv7t, and let me tell y'all. THE BASS IS AMAZING. So, I now rest my case. As I have proven my hypotheses twice, these are a great product.
If you plan to use these more than 4 days/week...DO NOT BUY July 8, 2010

I was tired of burning through $20 earbuds every 6 months so I paid a little more for these hoping they would last a little longer... maybe a year. I drive a lot for my job so I need to have hands-free headset - and I use them 6 or 7 days/week - but no hard use... just riding in the car. They're not getting abused or anything.
First pair -- mic stopped working after about 3 months. Apple replaced for free... great.
Second pair -- mic stopped working after 3 weeks. Apple replaced for free... ok.. cool
THIRD pair -- after about 2 weeks mic was filled with static. Customers could barely hear me between static. Apple replaced for free... yeah.
FOURTH PAIR -- no joke... after 2 weeks mic failed. People couldn't hear me.. period. Called Apple just to let them know what a poor product. They offered to replace for free but I refused. Like everyone else in the real world, I'm busy working and spending time with my family... I don't have time to spend 40-50 minutes on the phone every 2 weeks going through their phone tree to get replacement earbuds.
If you plan on using these more than 4 days/week DO NOT BUY. DO NOT BUY. DO NOT BUY. You will be sorry. I promise.
Superb value for money...Audiophile quality sound July 4, 2010
Nicholas Stock (San Diego, CA United States)
I'm not sure why some people are being so critical of these earphones? I've used a fair number of brand name earphones (Shure, VModa etc) all around the same price point as these Apple headphones and the difference in sound quality is like night and day. The Apple's dual armature set-up gives by far a superior sound reproduction, from crisp highs to excellent low-range response. People often forget that with any in-ear earphone, you must use the correct size ear-bud to seal the headphone into the ear canal, otherwise the bass-repsonse will be severely attenuated....these headphones also take a while to get used to the way they fit in your ears, but that's really no different from the other types I've tried. Coupled with the excellent sound reproduction is the ability to remotely control the volume, pause, play and a microphone, so if you use an iPod/iPhone compatible with these, then seriously, try these out if you can, you won't be disappointed.
$20 and all worth it!! July 4, 2010

I've always liked Apple earphones and I'm glad that they improved on the in ear headphones that they had before. These are a great option and for $20, i'll say, it was a steal and absolutely fantastic.
