I`ve recently got these,I had a pair of sony headphones and they lasted me for nearly 3 years but sony have stopped making that particular type so thought I`d try the ear bud type for a change.
I had a pair of Sony earbuds but found them tinny and uncomfortable,a friend said to try these and for less than a tenner I thought why not,they are excellent once you`ve found the correct sized earbud,the sound is amazing,I`m hearing stuff in my tunes I`ve never heard before,bass is rich and it really picks the drum parts out which being a drummer I find essential.
No problem with them coming out and I wear them at work all the time and my ears don`t hurt.

I bought these a while ago and the pair broke within 2 days. I was so impressed with the sound quality and noise cancelling that i got another pair.
These were my first pair of In-ear headphones so they were a little wierd to start of with, but i have got used to them.
If they do stop working for you, take them back and get a new pair because they are definitely worth it.

To date, I own four pairs of ear buds. Two are Sony, one is Sennheiser. Plus the skullcandy InkD. In each case, the Skullcandy were cheaper. Roughly the tune of £10. In fact, I prefer the Skullcandy.
Ok, I don’t really expect too much base from any of these tiny, ear buds. And, in this respect, the skullcandy are no exception. What they do deliver, however, is a crisp, exciting sound. The upper range, is not too well defined. But neither is it too sharp, or too shrill. Thank goodness. The drums sound like drums, not like someone beating on a cardboard box. The stero image, seems slightly narrow. But it is still defined. With quite a clear audio sound stage. It is the vocal’s which excel. Clear, exciting and nicely centred.
They fitted well in the ear. Not really uncomfortable at all. Yet, after I had worn them for a while the first time and then removed them, it did still feel, for a short time, that they were still inserted. However. They did not drop out as I was walking. And the cable does not seem too easily prone to tangle, although in my experience it will do sooner or later, as they all seem to. My only real down point, being, and it is a slight one, that while walking with the skullcandy in the ears, the wire tends to send a vibration up to the ear pods. Its ok, if you can mentally allow for this, and it did not do it every time.
So not just for value for money. But for a sound which I like I am enjoying listening to them. Making them, for now, my preferred choice.

The past year I have been through 5 pairs of in ear headphones. All my previous ones either died, went extremely quite or one ear bud brakes and the sound quality just didn’t come up to scratch….. BUT then I picked these bad boys up at HMV and Jesus was I impressed. Not only do they look awesome but they sound awesome as well with hefty bass and extreme sound quality. As a added bonus they cancel out all outside noise and keeps noise in, so you don’t have to be conscious of people hearing your music while walking down the street. All this for £10!!!!!! What are you waiting for?!?!

Seriously these are the best head phones EVER! They are excellent for when you want to hear the sound perfectly and when on the bus it blocks out the sound of all those 14yr olds with there crappy music lol They come in lovely colors too!
