Excellent fit and sound. The only problem is the microphone is too close to the earpiece. The angle of the earpiece looks too far off perpendicular but it's actually perfect.

These are great!
Overall
These headphones stay in place remarkably well for subway commuting AND running. I've mainly used them for podcasts so far, but the sound seems high quality. Looking forward to having these for a while!
I do wish they came with a case so they wouldn't end up a tangled mess in my purse post-commute.

Comfortably and stay put!!
Overall
Of all the headphones I've tried for use at the gym, biking, and running, these are the ONLY pair that comfortably stay around my ears and deliver fantastic sound. I've got particularly small ears so I've always had difficulty finding a pair that don't hurt and that don't fall off. These are perfect, just ordered a second pair!

Good Sound, but...
Overall
This headset sounds good for a pair of earbuds/earclips. They block out external sound and allow me to hear only what I want. They fit well, but after long periods of use (over 30 minutes), I get an ache at the top of the earlobe, and have to take them off. There is no adjustment or forming.
My biggest complaint is the microphone (which is not my primary use), but I've used this head to head with a set of OEM Samsung earbuds and the microphone response is much,much better on the OEM buds. The microphone has very poor voice response, and little (if any) noise cancellation.
I was also disappointed with the lack of a volume control. There is a call answer button, but it is very difficult to press.
When push comes to shove, I would end up choosing my OEM buds over these for comfort, function, and microphone clarity. These do have the benefit of not falling out while I'm exercising, but end up being uncomfortable after a mere half hour.

One of the best headphones I have ever owned.
Overall
I was in the market for a pair of inexpensive headphones for when I'm at the gym working out or out running, so I picked these up online. They're sleek and attractive, very soft and lightweight, and so comfortable that you forget they're on. They sit well and secure on your ears that they don't move or fall out even during the most active of workouts.
I bought these expecting so-so sound that's just good enough for the gym, but I soon learned the sound quality, however, is absolutely outstanding. These headphones render the entire spectrum with incredible clarity; from deep, rumbling bass that never drowns out the sound, pronounced yet crystal clear mids, and crisp highs with no hint of distortion. I hear details in some of my favorite songs that would otherwise be drowned out and muddied by other headphones of lesser quality. The soft earpieces are made to sit just on the outside of the ear canal, and do an impressive job of sealing out ambient noise. That being said, you can enjoy the amazing sound quality of these headphones even at lower volumes.
I'm an hobbyist recording mixer, drummer, and an audiophile, and I am so impressed that I may very well buy several pairs of these for general music listening and for recording purposes. I have used many headphones over the years, including noise-cancelling Bose, reference AKGs, and studio IEMs, and quite frankly I personally find it hard to hear the difference between these and more expensive models. If you’re looking for an amazing pair of headphones at an unbeatable price, these are the ones for you.
