SonyMDR-EX15LP-BLACK In-Ear Headphones with Tangle Free Cord and 3 Pairs of Silicone Ear Buds

Love these! Got them to listen to my little Walkman I have had for years. Love to listen to talk radio late at night. No issues with these earphones. Sony always made great items. Bri g back the little Walkman again!

These earbuds are incredible. Cheaper than most other wired earbuds, they are literally better than any others I have tried.1. The sound quality, for this price, is fantastic. My friend didn't believe that the sound quality could be any good, but we compared it side-by-side to his Airpods and he was barely able to tell the difference.2. It blocks out all reasonable levels of noise. I can't stand hearing background noise (car alarms, other people talking, etc.) while I am trying to focus. These are amazing for study sessions in coffee shops, when partner is watching TV in the same room, etc. I can't hear a thing other than my music.3. They are durable. I've dropped these in my coffee and after a day of drying out, they worked perfectly again. My cat stole them and hid them somewhere for a few days (granted, he didn't gnaw on them), but they had no tooth marks and worked fine. I fall asleep with them in to listen to podcasts or music, and often wake up with them twisted under my back. They still work fine.

I use these with my tablet when my boys are playing video games. I'm able to watch shows without hearing the outside world.

amazon has been taken over by cheap imitation scammers, this product is the exception - it's the real deal. great quality, and lasts and lasts even as I sweat all over them, they keep on working and with great sound quality

Works well

I have owned several pairs of these Sony earbuds over the past decade plus. I've probably been through about five or six pairs. Why? Well I find the only drawback to these is that they don't last long. Like other reviewers here have stated they are great while they last for the money that you pay. However, for me, they tend to last 3-12 months before needing to be replaced. Like other reviewers have stated, one earbud will 'go out' or slightly go out. Earwax build up is another problem--sorry, but it's true. That also affects the sound quality/volume level, and trying to get earwax off the tiny speaker can prove fatal to the device itself. So, for 11 dollars these are great in terms of audio quality but poor in terms of durability and longevity. But, since you're only paying 11 bucks a pop it doesn't hurt too much to fork out another 11 for a new pair once or twice a year. The only thing I use these for is listening to music to and from work. That's it. That's five days a week for about 60-90 minutes each day. They still don't last as long as they should. Additionally, I get that I am behind the times and that blue tooth earbuds are all the rage, but I still like having more control over how I listen to my music and I refuse to graduate to using a cell phone/Spotify/Amazon Prime music. I am still using a decade old Sony MP3 player which gives me maximum control over how I listen to my music. That means wired earbuds for me. Of course I wouldn't have to do this at all if car stereos lasted as long as the vehicle itself but that doesn't seem to be the case. Anyway, I digress. These are great for what they are, just wished they lasted longer than they do.

Got this cheap pair of headphones to hopefully replace my Apple earbuds, since the sound quality wasn't great and they were pretty uncomfortable to wear. These headphones fixed both of those issues. Sound quality was much better and clearer, and they were way more comfortable to wear than my old ones. Very happy with the product and the price.

My 14 year old earbuds finally died (and I held a sad earbud funeral) and I had to move on and find new ones. I went looking around with my very limited budget and landed on three models to try, as I'm very picky:$9.50 Panasonic ErgoFit No Mic RP-HJE120-KB$12 Sony MDR-EX15LP$15 Sephia SP3060I wanted something with no microphone, inexpensive and at least "listenable" quality. While I have audiophile headphones for when I need clarity, I do have standards for even cheap earbuds.This is how these shook out for me, cheapest to most expensive:Panasonics:I actually rather like these. They basically "barely qualify" for me when it comes to sound quality, but the balance at least is to my taste (a bit bass-heavy, quieter treble) and it's mostly that it struggles a bit with clarity. It's fine for listening to youtube or casually listening to music if you aren't very picky. I don't really need an EQ for these. The cord is adequate length. I actually like the weirdly shaped earbuds, the oval makes it obnoxious to replace the buds but once you do, it sits very well in the ear and helps with noise isolation. Like, these aren't going to erase outside noise, but they work alright in dampening. They're also very comfortable.These have become my daily drivers for just doing stuff on the computer and gaming with friends.Sony...s:I hate these. They were the worst of the bunch for me. The audio quality was well below what I find tolerable, staticky and irritating with a very harsh balance. That kind of "edged" treble sound that hurts my ears, heavy sibiliance. I had to use a heavy EQ to make these listenable, and I still wasn't that impressed. The earbuds aren't even pure silicone for some reason, I shouldn't have even ordered these. I'm still deciding if I try to return them or if I take the L for the twelve dollars and just donate them. They weren't comfortable because whatever they mixed the silicone with triggers my allergies. I also kind of hated the cord because it's that stiff but weirdly pointy... type. I dunno, I just find it unappealing and it makes me feel bad. All in all, these really did not work for me.Sephias:I actually liked these the most, however... They interfere with my computer somehow. I have this longstanding issue with, I think, my motherboard, that certain sound equipment makes this constant crackling and it is Very Annoying. While I may eventually try to fix that problem, in the meantime, I can't use these for my computer, as not only do they have the crackling issue, but they... amplify it. Unfortunate. It kinda sucks because these were extremely comfortable and easily had the best sound quality of the lot. They are even what I would call "fairly decent" on that front. Very good clarity for their price. They are listenable for me without an EQ, but I think do benefit nicely from a slight curve. Probably the most "neutrally" balanced earbuds. The cord is way too short for me though. Also it coming with 6 friggin sets of earbuds sure is a thing. (They came in useful.) They're also a bit heavier than I'm used to between the aluminum and the fairly heavy cord, though they stay in place fine if I'm not swinging my head around wildly or something. Probably not going to wear them to a gym if I ever visit a gym in my lifetime.I've ended up just keeping these by my bed for things like mp3 player or steam deck or similar. Don't have to cart one set of earbuds around that way, I guess.So, overall, the cheapest panasonics kind of wiggle out to be the most utilitarian for me, and I really can't recommend the sony earbuds. If you don't have a weird crackly computer the sephias are good. I figure a review of three of the cheaper (with half-decent reviews) put together as a comparison might help someone, but earbuds and music is always going to be a bit subjective!
