Headphones seem to hate me and break on me all the time :(

I think 2/4 of these headphones work.

They're fine for the average user, i.e. me. They don't seem bad to me :P.

The sound quality is bearable, but they all undergo the same fate of generally falling apart.

bought these off amazon the other day, i love them since i'm always listening to music when i'm walking anywhere on my own. i also agree that the apple earphones are horrible, the quality is awful (never owned a pair when they haven't fallen apart) and they never fit in my ears in the first place :(

EarPods are fantastic. The older model not so much.

Skullcandy reggae/rasta earbuds

they were cheap in HMV so I bought them
they're falling apart though so I need some new ones

I keep buying cheap earbuds and they keep falling apart i think i've been through like 5/6 pairs this year which is terrible :L i usually break the connection at the jack so then it doesnt work, i need to stop bending them

Just FYI, not only is Skullcandy terrible overpriced it also has dreadful sound quality. Sennheiser, JVC and Audio Technica all make decent In Ear Monitors at the lower price range (Ear Buds).

You're going to struggle to find In Ear Monitors which don't break easily, the trick is not to wind them too tight around say an iPod as it goes past the cable's minimum curve angle. I personally just use ~£20 Sennheiser Buds and replace them every 24 months or so.

I haven't heard much about Shure Headphones, although I have heard that their mics are fairly decent. Any thoughts on them?

They sound fantastic, seriously the best I've listened to for sound quality.

However they're a little bit heavy (as you might expect looking at that picture) so if you wear them for long periods of time they can get quite uncomfortable :( However a couple of hours at a time is fine.

I'd seriously recommend them :D

Mine haven't fallen apart.. must be people not looking after them. I bought an iPod Touch in 2008 and those Earphones are still working - although I now use the ones I got with my iPhone a little over a year ago.

These for when I'm in bed or walking home from school. The actual ones which go in your ear falls out of my ears cos they're awkward, so I have to use these :(

They were mega cheap in HMV so I thought I'd buy some. Really good quality for my musiccccc. :D

For going out and being at school, I've got these until I get my iPhone lol:

I think this thread cursed my headphones as the day after I posted in it my headphones were ripped out my ear and broken. :( Not sure if I can be bothered to replace them as I assume you get a pair of headphones with your apple product? :Mini-Frown:

I just use some old blackberry ones, they're alright they do the job for bus journeys. Did have some beats in white, they were nice (over priced yes but I could afford them, why not?) but they looked RIDICULOUS on me so sent them straight back. Not a fan of massive headphones tbh, I just think they look silly and if I were to buy some I'd only use them in my bedroom where no1 could see me.
