I spend a lot of time look at review so I could get the most bang for the buck for some sport headphone so I could have something that do not fall out of my ear when work out . these seem well-approved for the price point in comparison to similar one , so I order they . from the first time I use they I could tell that not only be they less than I would hope for , they be far worse than the free earbud that come with my zen and my HP laptop . both speaker , especially the leave , buzz significantly , even on medium volume level . Bass be completely blow out and music -lrb- even on high bit-rate -rrb- sound pathetic . after only a few day with these , they be go back . I have test they on my computer -lrb- music and game -rrb- and a Walkman and can get better audio out of even $ 10 or less phone . in addition , the clip that come on the cord be a nuisance . it be in the way , can not be remove , and be worthless . it be hard to actually get clip to anything and require both hand to `` coordinate '' the clipping process , rather than be truly sporty and be a clip-on-the-run style . I would recommend other Sony headphone -lrb- and other brand in general -rrb- over these .
