I use these earphones go on a Nokia mobile phone and am pleasantly surprised how enjoyable clear and punchy come off the music. The bass is not too pronounced and the highs do not sound too shrill - so a fairly balanced sound that is maintained even at low volumes. The supplied ear cushions are comfortable and at the same time the listener is seated firmly in the ear. The 3.5mm plug is angled so that snagging is prevented. The cable is 1.20 m long and thus allows a stow the mobile phone in your pocket. This earphone I have found for me the best ever handset in this price range.
