  • Pleasantly improved sound, Some beef at the lowend, Comes with a small carrying case, Good price for what you’re getting
  • Design still doesn't fit everyone, Some sound leakage still evident
  • The EarPods aren't perfect – far from it – but in most cases, you're not paying for them since they come with iPods and iPhones. And many missteps can be forgiven with a £25 price tag. The sound is certainly improved on the old earbuds, particularly at ...

  • Abstract:  Headphones are your smartphone's best friend. They are the cheese to your phone's wine, the glass of milk to your phone's Oreo. They are nearly as ubiquitous as smartphones themselves and you see people wearing headphones almost everywhere you go.A lot of...

  • With Apple-made earbuds, it used to be that you'd only listen to them when you couldn't find your other headphones, or perhaps on the way home from the store from which you bought your new iDevice. Apple employees probably did the same thing, which is ...

  • Good overall sound for price, Pretty powerful bass, Stable and comfortable fit for most ears, Durable and improved ergonomics for inline controller
  • Doesn't block ambient noise, Cords get easily tangled
  • Apple's EarPods sprout a better-fitting bulb design, sturdier inline controls, and improved audio quality.

  • Overall, I think many people will be happily surprised with the new EarPods from Apple. They sound better, they fit better, and they're easier to use.So what's the downside? The price tag. The EarPods are $29 and while that's nothing compared to ultra-hig...

  • Abstract:  Apple gave us a new exciting design, and better everything with its new EarPods. But before we get down to the audio goodness, we can't sit here and pretend like these are just another pair of earphones with a snazzy glistening white, almost lab-like clea...

  • Considerably improved bass, Slightly better short-term comfort, Slightly larger in-line control microphone
  • Hot and brittle treble, Midrange sucked out, Still uncomfortable for long-term use
  • When all is said and done, Apple's new EarPods are an improvement on the earbuds they replace, but only marginally so. It's hard to imagine anyone would compare the two and express a preference for the older model. With that said, we had hoped for a lit...

  • Should you use them? For most people, the answer will be yes. They ship with your iPhone 5 and iPod and might even fit in your ears for a change. The sound isn't something to write home about but it's a big improvement from where it used to be and, lik...

  • To be fair, this is a freebie accessory. Other device makers dont bother to bundle products with quality accessories. so why should we expect Apple to? If you buy an iPhone 5 or iPod, you wont have a choice. You will involuntarily own them. Thats fine—...

  • Great sound for the price. Surprisingly strong bass considering it's not an in-canal design. Inexpensive. Includes small carrying case.
  • Design still doesn't fit everyone. Doesn't block out any external noise and some sound leaks out
  • Apple's new EarPods are the better-fitting, better-sounding earbuds iPods and iPhones should have had all along....
