So I have an iPhone 3G. And I’d like better headphones. But I love the mic on the packaged earbuds, so it was music to my ears (groan) when Apple said they’d launched these. Despite not being officially supported by Apple, it does work with the 3G.
But they had a fatal flaw: you could hear every sound the cable makes as it hits you while walking (possibly because it uses that odd new rubbery material). So, great sound, except I could hear myself sing and breathe. And the bouncy bouncy of the cable. Sadly, I returned them.
Pros:
- Better sound than stock earbuds
- Blocks exterior sound well
- Multiple sizes of earpieces for a good fit
- Look great, taste great
Cons:
- Not exactly cheap
- Insufferable noise when walking, which is when I wear my headphones
Caveat emptor…
