CNET editors' buying advice
We have not reviewed this product but here is CNET's buying advice on Headphones. This content was chosen based on the features included with this model of headphone.
Earbuds
Earbuds, which are also known as in-ear headphones, are commonly issued as freebie headphones with portable players, but higher-performance 'buds can offer sonics that rival full-size models. Their tiny earpieces rest on the outer ear or need to be inserted into the ear canal, and some models include ear clips for a more secure fit. This type of headphone is ultracompact and lightweight, and can often provide moderate to excellent passive isolation from external noise—no battery required. The small size makes them not only extremely portable, but also the best option for those who wear earrings, hats, or long hairstyles. Sound quality and bass response of earbuds are often not comparable to those of full-size models, though for use with lossy formats used on most MP3 players, they are usually more than adequate. However, they can cause discomfort over periods of extended use, and some models are difficult to insert and remove, especially for those to whom the idea of putting foreign objects in the ear is counterintuitive and uncomfortable.
