SOL Republic Relays Sport In-Ear Headphones – Noise Isolating, Lightweight Earphones w/ Mic + 1 Button Control, High Quality I5 Sound Engines, Sweat, Rain Resistant Perfect Gym Earbuds – Blue

So many headphones out there to choose from, and I've tried a few at a similar price point. I gave these a go and I'm pretty happy with them. As a few reviews mention the packaging is a bit over the top and fiddly, and the lack of a carry case is disappointing.As with all such in-ear types, you need to get the right size end for your ears - I tend to need the biggest size. Once in place, they stay put. I like the fact that they don't stick out much from the ears, so you can comfortably lean on a pillow which makes them good for bedtime listening.Sound quality is pretty good, a little muddy but good bass and detail, if lacking a bit of space.In fact, I came back here to order another pair.

These things are by far the most comfortable earphones I've ever bought. They feel very light, and they hold their promise - I don't think there's any kind of activity which would get these to fall out of my ear. They're even pretty hard to pull out, pulling straight down on the cable.The sound quality is great, although they do tend to bring out the low frequencies quite a bit. EDM sounds awesome off the shelf in these, but for some sharper pieces like Jack White's Lazaretto for example, you just need a decent equalizer app to make these sound incredible. There's many of those on the App/Play store, and your laptop/computer's audio driver probably has one of those built in. My B&O laptop's in-built speakers' equalizer did a great job.The build quality is also surprising. it's the first pair of Sol earphones I own, and to be honest, even the packaging looked and felt well crafted. High quality plastics and rubbers, and I have a feeling the cable doesn't get easily entangled. It's quite... Springy, I'd say.I got a good feeling these will last me a long time. I actually liked them so much that I just bought another pair, the kind with 3 buttons which I found for just £6 (down from £60)! I'd recommend them to anyone for anything.

I've had these for a couple of weeks now and I'm very impressed, for the price you pay these ar excellent. They're comfortable, I've never had them fall out whole exercising, and they sound good and block out noise well. Only criticism is that the remote only has one button, so you can play/pause/skip etc. but can't change volume

Although they didn't fall out, the ring around the edge does dig into your ear which can be quite annoying at first. They work well but they do feel a bit distant and lacking in bass, even with a good seal(the earbuds provided couldn't so I used ones that I knew worked, but everyone's ears are different), compared to some other, cheaper earphones you can buy.

As the title says, these were ok for a month until one earpiece stopped producing any sound. Not ideal.

Product was fine for the 3 weeks it worked! Then the right bud stopped playing sound all together, which then progressed to me having to hold down the pause button to get any sound at all. They were cheap, and it shows.

decent value

The earphones are decent budget earphones, I've had more expensive ones which weren't as good, these won't blow you away but are perfectly fine for "general" use.The buds themselves are quite small and fit nicely in the ear, but I did find that the wider outer circle did sometimes dig in a bit depending on how I'd fit them in, for some this may not be an issue at all, but I'm sure others will find that uncomfortable.The mic is well positioned and picked up my voice well on calls without having to manipulate it into position.The controls are a big let down, they focus too much on answering and ending calls and don't allow any volume control - this is the first pair of earphones I've had which have controls but not for volume. When I'm out walking I like to be able to reach up and easily knock the volume up or down as I exchange pleasantries with fellow walkers.In a nutshell: Bright and light, these would get 4 stars if it weren't for the lack of volume control
