I was looking for headphones that do not irritate my sensitive ears. My old earphones were solid variety, too big for my anatomy and they were falling all the time. I have researched several brands and ultimately chose this in-ear headphones, and I am very happy because they are great. Comfort is excellent, the tips are oval and clearly consistent with my ears better than the round variety, and there are 3 different sizes to choose. The sound quality is surprisingly good for a cheap product with very deep bass and crisp treble, and good external insulation. Finally, the bright pink is a welcome change from the usual black.
