Sony Deep Bass Wired Earphones with Smartphone Control and Mic - Metallic Black

These are my favorite pair of earbuds hands down. I loose earbuds semi-frequently, so I’ve had at least 5+ of these over the past 4 ish years. I don’t think I’ve ever had a pair break on me, with the exception of the protective rubber connecting the earbud head to the cord on my last pair, which I had for close to a year. Never affected the sound, I just taped it and it was fine. I should mention that pair also went through the laundry multiple times and remained totally fine after drying out. They’re very comfortable to wear, and I can wear them while lying on my side without any discomfort.What made me suddenly remember to finally write a review is the sound quality, which imo is very good for the money. I recently decided to try true wireless earbuds again (i don’t trust myself with them RE: me loosing 5 pairs of these earbuds that aren’t in 3 separate pieces I could loose any one of) and picked up the beats fit pro for 160$. I know with true wireless earbuds you’re mainly paying for the convenience of Bluetooth + other misc quality of life features, and comparing wired to Bluetooth earbuds isn’t really a fair fight, but these earbuds outperform the beats fit pro in terms of sound quality to a degree that is embarrassing for a 160$ pair of earbuds.The mic isn’t the greatest, and I usually unplug the earbuds to make calls, but microphone quality isn’t really a feature I care about at all in a 20-30$ pair of earbuds beyond just “it’s there,” so I’m not taking off a star for that.Overall a solid pair of earbuds with good fit, sound quality, and durability. As an added bonus, sometime over the period I’ve been getting them the packing has been redesigned to be almost entirely recyclable, which I appreciate.

Best corded earbuds I have ever owned! I have had two pairs of these earbuds, the first ones I found on the bottom of a lake. It looked like they had been there for a little bit, but I for some reason I did not throw them away right away and after forgetting about them in my bag for a few days I decided to see if they worked. To my surprise they worked and sounded great!! I continued to use them for FIVE MORE YEARS. These earbuds made it through 4 years of Engineering school in which I used them EVERY SINGLE DAY. When the speaker in one of the buds did start to die the rubber and plastic parts were still in great condition. I have high hopes that my new ones will last even longer, as long as I keep them out of the lake.

These earphones offer a compact and stylish audio experience. Here's a quick rundown of the pros and cons:Pro'sDeep Bass and Clear Sound: These earphones deliver impressive audio with powerful bass, allowing you to enjoy your favorite music genres to the fullest.Smartphone Control: The in-line remote control allows you to manage your music playback, adjust volume, and answer calls without having to reach for your phone, offering convenient hands-free operation.Built-in Microphone: The integrated microphone in convenient for phone calls or can be used for gaming if plugged directly in to the controller.Comfortable Fit: With multiple sizes of ear tips included, you can find the perfect fit for your ears. I have troubles finding earphones that are comfortable to wear and these are one of the more comfortable one's I've used.Con'sWired Connection: These earphones use a wired connection, which may limit mobility compared to wireless options. However, this ensures consistent audio quality and eliminates concerns about battery life.Limited Noise Isolation: While the ear tips provide some noise isolation, it may not be as effective in blocking out loud external sounds in busy environments.Although the wired connection may restrict mobility and the noise isolation could be more effective, these earphones are an excellent choice for those seeking a compact and reliable audio companion on the go.

Great sounds and very good fit in the ears. Fair price for a quality item

I've used Sony's MDRXB series of wired earbuds for several years now. The bass has been consistently deep without being muddy. If by noise cancellation you mean "loud enough to drown out the subway," yeah, they've been good at that, and held up daily for 2-3 years per set.At the time of purchase the ones that I would normally get (for around $50) weren't available, so I took a chance on these. The sound and call quality is decent for the price range but the build quality just isn't the same. These are the thinnest wires I've ever seen on headphones/earbuds in this price range and I don't expect them to hold up more than 3-6 months.The earbuds themselves are tiny. Wired Apple earbuds look chunky in comparison. They certainly are light and the only discomfort I have from wearing them is wondering if they're going to fall deeper into and not out of my ears. If other earbuds at this price point have seemed bulky to you, you may want to consider these or go with the Skullcandy Ink'd series?

Excellent sound quality and comfortable. The downside is the puppy thinks they are very tasty.

Great Sound!

don't waste your money! this Earbuds by Sony are absolutely a waste of money, they sound terrible and have absolutelyno "BASS" and they were advertised on AMAZON as have extra "BASS" talk about truth in Advertising, all lies!I do not recommend these SONY EARBUDS TO ANYONE!
