Pros

These are the same exact earbuds as the sony mdr-xb55 which i had for years. I have $200 over ear noise canceling audio technica's and they’re amazing… and honestly these little wired sony’s are comparable. I’d recommend getting foam tips asap.

These are now my #1 earphones. These headphones are exceptional. Great for running and the gym. This is by far the best pair of earphones i'd ever purchased.



Cons

I was terribly dissappointed to listen to the sound quality of the headphone. My panasonic $11 headphones sound better than this. Does not work with the iphone.

Quality


The overall sound quality is very good.


Sound quality is the best for the price range, clear vocals and clarity.


Sony's mdr- line of headphones goes way back, and they could always reproduce quality bass levels.


Been to many years since i got to listen to something w quality sound.

Price


In this price range, i doubt you'll hear anything better!


Good value if you catch them at discounted price.


Definitely not worth it for list price.

Competitiveness


I don't pay for high dollar brands, so i can not speak for them.
