Digital camera reviews of Sony MDR-EX81LP Bud-Style Stereo Earphones (White)

Digital camera Review: Absolutely wonderful!
Summary: 3 Stars

These headphones are exceptional. The different size buds make it a snug fit for anyone. However, the thing that goes behind your ear is rather annoying so before purchasing these check out the Sony Headphone w/out the weird back thingy.

Digital camera Review: Almost great headphones
Summary: 4 Stars

I bought these headphones for my ipod because the bud type headphones always come out of my ears and are terribly uncomfortable. The ear hook design is a fabulous improvement. The customizable earbud fittings also ensured these headphones have a very comfortable fit.

The sound is great from these headphones although the volume the headphones produce is lesser than what my iPod earbuds produce. For the most part this is OK. The only time this is an issue for me is when I am on an airplane - announcements from flight attendants and from the cockpit drown out the volume even when my iPod is at the highest levels.

The only thing I do not like about these headphones is the earpieces have different length cords before reaching the single cord that goes to the mp3 player (or whatever you are listening to). This is picky I know but it makes it difficult to wrap up the headphones and requires that I strap my iPod Nano on my left arm when I run.

If I need another pair of headphones in the near future and want to stay in this price range, I would probably buy these again.

Digital camera Review: An utter waste of $30.
Summary: 1 Stars

I really like the ear buds that come included with Apple's iPods, but wanted something that would sound better and be more durable. These failed on both counts! On a long flight last week I decided to break these ear buds out. They kept falling out of my ears, regardless of how far I jammed them in. I tried using the two smaller sized nubs, which made exactly no difference; same with wrapping the cord behind or in front of my head. They just kept falling off, which would jerk me awake as I was drifting off to sleep. Since they slipped off after five or so minutes when I was sleeping, I cannot imagine how awful they would be if used during physical activity. I found the sound quality to be fairly abysmal as well; there was an omnipresent tinny sound that I constantly heard over the three days that I used them. They did a terrible job of blocking out airplane noise, despite advertisements to the contrary. These were a waste of the $30+ MSRP. I will never use them again. Meanwhile, my search continues for a replacement to Apple's ear buds.

Digital camera Review: Awesome Earbuds!
Summary: 5 Stars

After trying several different kinds of earbuds, I decided to go ahead and give these a shot. They are noticeably better than any other earbuds I have tried (sennheiser, koss & panasonic). They have good bass and excellent clarity. I use these at the gym and they fit very comfortably and don't move. They also work really well for running. I would recommend these to any MP3 owner.

Digital camera Review: Awesome Headphones!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

At first the headphones didnt seem to fit right...but that was before I discovered the different size of earbuds..Once I switched to another size, the headphones worked great!!! They dont fall out like other headphones and thats great since I use them when I workout...I give these headphones A+++++++.
