Review: Amazing - I already have a pair, so I knew they were gonna be good quality, which they are. They're a bit more durable than other earphones. The only think is that they dont have volume buttons on them for control. The audio is good, it connects fine, fits in my ear comfortable, and is very convenient and portable for use. I like the ear piece because it isn't hard and more comfortable for my ear, especially since the ear phones with the soft pieces to add on never fit in my ear. I only wish they had a USB-C version of this. I got a USB-C to 35 mm jack to put on and the audio is still good. I would definitely get these again.
Review: Great product - Great product. Reliable and lasts long.

Great product. Reliable and lasts long.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great, comfortable budget headphones
*by A***M on March 18, 2015*

I've used JVC Gumy headphones pretty consistently for years, mostly because they're the most comfortable, budget-friendly in-ear headphones I've ever found. Pros: -Extremely comfortable -Stay in ears when active (jogging, exercise, etc.) -Good sound quality (for the price) and fairly loud My dad tried to convert me to Sony MDRE9LP/BLU Earbud Headphones, which he boasted were long-lasting and better quality...but they were uncomfortable when listening for long periods and broke within a few months. I also tried a pair of Panasonics (can't find the exact ones), and those were not only uncomfortable, but they also kept falling out when I went jogging. The Gumy brand stays in my ears and stays comfortable for as long as I listen. Cons: -They tend to break down after two years or so, and I've had to toss out two pairs that started to only play through one ear. -If you're really set on the color, beware: the ones I got were more of a turquoise (called "pistachio green" on the container), not the light green in the picture. My recommendation? Do yourself a favor and ditch the Apple headphones - for the price, these are much better value.
