Digital camera reviews of Sony MDR-A35G Headphones
Digital camera Review: 3 Stars for Sound/5 Stars for Staying Power
Summary: 4 Stars
This is my 3rd pair of headphones for my Ipod shuffle, and I'm sticking with them. After reading the other reviews, I realized keeping my headphones staying in my ears is more important than sound quality for the 30 or so minutes I'm on the treadmill. These DO NOT MOVE OFF MY HEAD. My boyfriend mentioned that they looked uncomfortable, but they're not. The headband is adjustable, and the ear pieces sit right against the inside of your ear. It's so nice to not have to worry about them slipping out from sweat, which I do profusely. As for the sound? Ug. Bass is pretty bad. BUT I'll sacrifice sound quality for staying power this go round. Save the ear buds that came with the ipod for the plane trips.Digital camera Review: 4 for sound, 0 for durability
Summary: 1 Stars
I've had four pairs of these headphones; each pair has snapped at the earpiece. The first two pairs lasted a good long while before breaking but recently I broke two pairs in two weeks. (Fortunately I had a replacement plan so the second was free.) The foldability isn't worth it. Go for the much cheaper and far more durable ones that don't fold.Digital camera Review: 7 Pairs Broken
Summary: 2 Stars
I like these headphones because they are water resistant, and they fold up nicely. They have fair sound quality, but more than adequate for using at the gym.
The bad news is because they fold up there are 3 different hinges on them which I have managed to break 7-10 different times. My record life span for a pair of these headphones is 6 months. Typically they break within about 3 months.
The reason I keep buying them is because they are cheap, and for the 13 bucks you can beat on them for 3 months until they break, but I am tired of replacing them now.
If you are looking for something that lasts and is durable, steer clear of these headphones. If you are doing anything other than using them to work out, they are junk.
Digital camera Review: A must have for the active person
Summary: 5 Stars
Disregard any negative reviews on this product. These headphones are supposed to be used for those who are frequent runners/joggers/walkers and/or those who weight-train. I constantly do both on a day to day basis, and let me say this is a superb product. I sweat more than the average person and have always had problems with headphones because of this. The Sony MDR-A35G's sweat guard is amazing. I can't stress this enough, due to the fact that I've ruined past headphones in two weeks tops due to my excess amount of sweat. There hasn't been any breakup or interference in the sound of these headphones for the past 3 weeks that I've owned them. They are very comfortable and never get in the way of any of my workout regimen. Whether you're doing bicep curls, shoulder press, or bench press, the headphones are a great fit and won't interfer with your workout. I have nothing but good things to say about these headphones. Like I said in my topic, this product is a must have for the active person.Digital camera Review: ALL PLASTIC
Summary: 2 Stars
I liked these headphones, but they were all plastic. The adjustable part broke after three weeks. I super glued them several times then tossed the over-the-head band. I still have the speaker parts; a baseball cap will hold them in place while I am searching for new headphones. I would not buy them again.
