I have to say that I have been familiar with the AKG name since the 1970's. When I saw these ear buds i had to try them. When I got them they looked very solid. I plugged them in and they sounded unbelievable. Better than the Samsung OEM earbuds. One day I couldn't find them and I was looking all over for them so I went back to the cheaper ones I had. Turned out i had them in the pocket of a pair of sweat pants I hadn't worn in weeks. Yes they survived a dunking in the washing machine and then the dryer. When I plugged them in I was expecting the worse but to my surprise they worked. They are very durable. I would highly recommend them. Best buy ever. They cost a few dollars more but worth it.

I accidentally broke the first pair of these I was gifted and bought myself a new pair since they fit well in my ears and had good sound. I've had my new pair for over 2 years now and both sides are working great. Volume buttons and mic still work too. Play/pause button was the only thing to break within that time frame. I would often catch my phone from falling with the cord, so these have definitely taken a beating and survived just fine. Definitely worth the 14 or so dollars I spent on these. Would recommend :> Read more
I needed a corded pair of earbuds because my wireless ones are constantly falling out of my ears or need to be recharged, so these are a great back up pair. My music sounds really good through them and I love rocking out while wearing them at work when I have to do data entry. However, my favorite feature is the cloth texture of the wires, which is very comfortable. Most wired earbuds are plastic, which can be uncomfortable because I work in a warehouse and they can stick to my neck in the hot weather. These don't do that. Also the cord is long enough that I can put my phone in my purse and still listen to my music without them tugging at my ears. At the same time, the cord is not so long that it gets tangled up.

When I lost my headphones that had come with my S20+, I looked for their exact replacement because I liked the originals so much. I was sure they were more expensive headphones... So imagine my shock when I found out they were on the cheaper end. I bought a pair immediately and although they seem to be the same brand and style as the OGs, they don't perform quite as well. They seem to have mic volume issues where the user comes across very quietly, and have a weird interaction with music players (making it stop a couple minutes into a podcast/song/etc). Sound is good, and if this mic volume issue wasn't a problem these would be 5 stars. Read more
I just love these. They work perfectly for many years. I had my previous ones for 8 years, and had to buy new ones just because syllicone was too old and started to crack. They still worked perfectly. Read more
I got a pair of these last year, and after it broke this year, I bought another for the same price: this year's is 60% lower in quality! Now the the in-ear casings super thin and cheap. They used to be pretty sturdy, but now it's like saran-wrap. The lower tones are also quiet. If a song suddenly lowers in register, then you'll have to crank the volume up. And if it returns, you'll have to crank the volume down. For the same price, they made this at least 50% worse. This epitomizes hidden inflation. Read more
I originally got these headphones with a phone years ago. They have lasted so long, are comfortable, and perfect for my use of them at work. Just had to purchase a new pair (these) and they are just as expected. Read more
These are the best earbuds I have ever used. I used to use headphones but they made my ears really hot and generally got quite bad over time. I have used these for years and years before replacing and I didn't even need to replace them! I would highly recommend anyone to purchase these as they have been the best experience I have had! Also really cheap so that's a huge plus. Read more
