Let's face it -- in-box earbuds have never been anything to write home about. Frankly, they usually suck. Even for as iconic as Apple's white earbuds have become since the release of the first iPod -- they still sucked. They were uncomfortable. They didn't sound good.

Excellent sound quality. Soundstage is great especially for headphones. Bass is clean and not over-boosted. Have noticed sounds and definition I have not heard on many tracks before. A must buy for 29.00

Officially announced in September 2012, Apple's Lightning connector is the smaller replacement for the 30-Pin Dock Connector introduced in 2003 -- a reliable plug that has been used in thousands of Apple-specific accessories, including everything from chargers to speakers, video projectors, and...

The best deal I could find on actual Apple brand ear pods. Even less expensive than some of the crappy, cheap (and I don't just mean inexpensive here) knock off brands. These are replacing the pair that came with my phone after one of my dogs demolished them.

These work perfect and just as the product title suggests it uses the new Lightning connector rather than the old traditional round 3.5mm plug, so if you are looking for headphones for something without a Lightning connector/adapter (same type of plug your iPhone charger has) you will either need to...

It does the job of being earphones without the need for a lightning to 3.5 mm adapter. Having a Lightning earphone is handy and reduces clutter. The package arrived very fast.

There's nothing quite like Apple headphones. Knock-off brands have not lasted as long as these, in my experience, and the quality is there for a long supply of music and entertainment needs. Strongly recommend; well worth the price.

I always used it. When I bought it , it was available for immediate use, no need to charge it.

Honestly Apple EarPods are incredible. They fit perfectly in your ears and the sound quality is just beautiful. Although it works best with Apple Music, I'm sure you Spotify and YouTube Music users will find greatness in their sound too!

beautifully designed - excellent sound quality. there is a visual oddity to overcome with the necks of the buds protruding from your ears. would be improved by a mute switch.
