iPhone Stereo Headset Review

Now let me be upfront. These are not the headphones that come packaged with the iPhone, Touch, or and iPod. These are a 3rd party set from Dealextreme.com

These are not made by them ,but sold. They also have a large quantity of tech related products to fit the average to not so average user. And now, its time for the review!

 - Quality
For headphones there are two types of quality: Sound and physical. The Sound quality on these are decent.  They are just a bit below the level of what you expect from apple made. The Physical quality however is quite bad.  In the pictures section of the blog, I'm sure you can see where the problem lies.  It doesn't affect the sound quality but it just makes me nervous when that happens.  It almost means immediate doom for the device. Over all, quality is nice but could be better.

 - Price
Very very nice price considering the product.  Apple's headphones are priced at 30 USD.  Now I know those headphones do much more but considering the price of these headphones which are 2.93 USD. The only button on the headphones are to stop the music and start the music.  It works well and is a feature that is almost standard so that is nice.  

 - Design
Not much to talk about design wise. Although I will say this: the white is a nice color but resembles the Apple headphones a bit too much.  

 - EarBuds!
This is the most important thing to me in a headphone.  Because if it doesn't feel good, I won't even try to get used to it.  To be honest, I feel it's too large for a normal ear.  And after every time i use them, my ears hurt; which is never a positive thing.

Above is the Problem talked about above.

 - Conclusion

They may not seem like much (they aren't), but they do the job well enough to recomend this product.  The 2.93 USD price tag is the best feature

Thanks for reading,
