Digital camera reviews of V-MODA Vibe Duo Earbuds/Headset (iPhone Compatible) - Black

Digital camera Review: Won't work for more than 6 weeks of regular use despite 8/2008 re-design.
Summary: 1 Stars

***hind sight -- read only the iphone headset reviews citing at least 4 weeks of regular use. Don't read the reviews saying "I just got these..."***

Unfortunately I've been through 4 warantee replacements. V-moda did redesign the faulty plug in August 2008 (to a Y shaped plug which was supposed to be more durable) but my latest replacement broke in the same amount of time as the old design.

I like the sound and design (when it worked). They are "isolating" ear buds, so understand that option when selecting a headset.

I did follow the warantee policy and V-Moda was good at providing replacements, but doing without my headphones for 6 weeks at a time was an inconvenience especially with the $99 price tag in mind.

I decided to write off v-moda, treat my last v-moda warantee replacement VERY gingerly, and go with the native iphone headset when I need to be active. (i.e. v-moda is okay when sitting at desk -- do not use when washing the dishes, getting in and out of the car, etc.)

Until I hear about something more durable (or even better, a reliable, durable A2DP setup for iphone) I'll stick with the native iphone headset.
