They do a great job gripping your head. I have three pair of these now.
I do agree with other reviewers that the extra plastic tab is very uncomfortable, but is not a big deal as they easily snap off. I purchased these as I have tried ear buds, over-the-head and ear plugs but they all come out or off when I start vigorous runs are weights. These are the only ones I have found to stay on no matter what. For the price, good headset. I am going to buy another set to retrofit my noise cancelling ear plug set: if it works it would be a perfect combination.
I have several sets of earbuds and I got really annoyed with constantly having to reposition them while I was on my treadmill, so I went back to the "old school" headphones. Getting a significant difference in the aural experience would likely cost several times as much money, and when you're on a treadmill listening to a movie it doesn't matter so much. What a deal. They sound great. However, what does matter is that they fit snug and are still comfortable enough to wear for a couple of hours, and that does matter when you're on a treadmill or working out some other way.So, now I can exercise and watch my movies when the rest of the family is asleep and not even think about how the sound is getting to me. Great job Sony.
With them being so comfortable, I sometimes forget that I'm wearing them. I wear these about 3-4 times a week during my workouts. My ears do not hurt after my sessions. The sound output is great. I would definitely suggest these to a friend.
Quality control is non-existent. I have foolishly bought about 3 of these, at various times. We didn't use it rough, just the normal gym use, which is what it is advertised for.Never again. Each and every one of them died on me and my wife, within a few months of use. One went out within a month. Sony, when you decide to make things cheaply, remember, it is the same name on an expensive camera as well as a $30 headphones. You lose a bit of your shine each time.I am looking at Sennheiser, Panasonic, etc now.
