5 Stars I love the case
I personally loved the case, though I have a smaller computer, 9″ instead of ten, the case fit’s fine and works perfect. It’s a little thinner than I thought it would be, but the memory foam really cradles the PC. It’s perfect for me.

4 Stars A good purchase!
I bought this case for my 10 inch Acer netbook. It was a little tight from the beginning but after several zips and unzips accessing the netbook it fits okay.

1 Star Case is too small for Eee PC 1000H
I bought this case and am veyr unhappy with it.

My Asus EeePC 1000H BARELY fits in it. I feel it is just such a tight squeeze. I dont understand why they could’nt make this base about 1/2 – 1 inch bigger so the netbook COMFORTABLY fits inside. Then this would have been a wonderful prodcut

5 Stars Inexpensive and compact
Good compact charger and works well. Was delivered proptly. It is nice that it doesn’t have a 10 foot cord like Sony’s and it’s dual powered AC/DC. Unlike the picture, it doesn’t come with the world wide adapter which doesn’t bother me because I don’t use it.

4 Stars Synergy charger
Better than the Sony charger since it is much smaller and more portable. A little slow, but probably the same as the Sony

4 Stars All Day Comfort
I wear headphones about 8 hours a day, listening to audiobooks at work, and these are very comfortable, light weight, with no ear pain.

I wear mine All Day and they Never cause ear pain.

Yes at first these did make my ears sore but that only lasted about a week.

The Soreness wasn’t nearly as bad as in-the-ear headphones and it went away after my ears got use to them.

Cons:

Only one and its the same with most headphones.

The cord wore out!!!

It did take a few months wearing them 8 hours a day 5 days a week.

But yeah my pair broke, the cord got a short in it at the connector.

Other Thoughts:

They will not block out noise. You can still hear if a vehicle or person is coming up behind you.

These are great headphones and I will be ordering another pair.

4 stars because they broke.

1 Star Seriosuly Uncomfortable
I will say, these headphones have a good sound…. Unfortunately that’s where it stops. The biggest issue I have with these headphones is they are the most uncomfortable things I have ever worn. After wearing them for only 30mins I start feeling an incredible amount of pain. I think the biggest reason is the design of these headphones protrude into your ears which normally is an ok thing but because of the band it adds pressure onto the headphones which I believe is where the pain comes from. Additionally I feel that the headphone cable coming out of the band is odd and awkward to deal with in many situations. Finally, if you buy this because it has a carrying case, you’ve bought the wrong ones because the case only covers the main part of the headphones while the band is not enclosed at all.

2 Stars good sound, bad fit
just received these badboys and took them to the gym to for a test run. After about 20 mins, my right ear was sore from the knob in the earpads. i must have different size ears if just one hurt! i returned em’ the next day.

5 Stars Snug
I was looking for an alternative to earbuds – which as is the case for many people – don’t stay in my ears when I run. These do stay put and the sound quality is good. The only downside to me is the length combinations – either very short (for wearing an arm band) or very long (long enough to wrap around for a front mounted player). One in the middle would have worked better for me since I wear my mp3 player in the back.

4 Stars No need to pay more
Get active! These are an excellent alternative to buds or to higher priced and less durable outside ear headphones. My son bought them first and has been very pleased and I just bought a set for myself and my brother in law. The comfort level is great and the inside ear piece of the phone is not intrusive at all. Hard to find now in retail stores.

Sony MDR EX500LP Vertical In the Ear Style EX Style Headphones




Music fans will love the clear sound of the MDR-EX500LP earbud style headphones.

Offering crisp audio for the perceptive ear, these earbuds boast a newly developed multi-layer diaphragm which provides high-resolution sound and recognizes clear vocal, while keeping fair bass. In addition to being sound tuned by hand, these EX premium earbuds are constructed with metal to minimize vibration. The hybrid silicone earbuds consist of two kinds of silicone to help block noise by creating a close seal with the ear.

2 Stars Terrible microphonic effect
The quality of the sound coming through these ear buds was excellent, as long as I was sitting still. As soon as I stood up to walk around, the wires rubbed against my shirt and the microphonic effect kicked in. All of a sudden it sounded liked a tsunami of loud static. The audible static made the buds unusable, and I returned them to Amazon the same day.

I’ve owned earphones ranging from cheap Sonys to Shure 530s, and have never encountered this problem before. I suppose you could try to attach the wires to your shirt front in several places, but why should you have to rig up something so inconvenient?

5 Stars Surprisingly impressive sound
I bought these to replace my old earbuds (JVC HAFX300B In Ear Headphone) which had decent sound, but became uncomfortable after about an hour. Surprisingly, these headphones don’t have that problem. Though they’re bigger and heavier, they’re quite possibly the most comfortable in-ear headphones I’ve ever used. In addition to being comfortable, these headphones sound fantastic. The 13.5″ driver provides excellent bass response while still offering up clean, crisp highs. I feel comfortable saying that these are on par with, if not better, than the more expensive Shure SE210’s (Shure SE210 Sound Isolating Earphone – Black) and come without the epic learning curve (the fit of Shure headphones takes a while to get used to).

In my opinion, these buds are well worth the money. I’d highly recommend you give them a try. You won’t be disappointed.

5 Stars Amazing Sound (again)
I’ve been using these Sony MDR-EX500lp earphones for a couple days and the sound is great, once you have earphones like these and listen to your music in a good format, I use .wav for my music, you’ll hear all the little details you never knew were there and the music sounds great, I’ve been using the mdr-ex90lp’s before these and those blew me away when I got those, I would say that these new ones are very comfortable to wear, the drivers float in your ears and it just seems like their not even there; I’ll probably end up buying the mdr-ex700’s since I’m addicted to sony products, I don’t know how those could sound any better than these things do though, so overall these are a great buy, especially when I paid $85.00 from seller on amazon here

5 Stars Nice upgrade from the Sony Line
I use a few different MP3 Players including a Sony S Series, but also own a couple of i-Pod products and a Zune. In the past my favorite mid-priced earbuds where the Sony MDR-EX90LP which I thought had a slight edge over the SENNHEISER CX500’s. This set has Chrystal clear clarity, outstanding Bass and outstanding highs. Honestly these are the most articulate set of earbuds I’ve used, and with the price ranging from well under $100.00 I would recommend this set to anyone.

Over all outstanding Bass and clarity with very articulate definition make these new earbuds from Sony a must have.

5 Stars Sporty & Trendy
This is an excellent set of earpiece. Fits the ear perfectly and most importantly are comfortable even for long use. Sound quality is better than average, definately wont say best in the market. But for the price, its more than worth every penny.

I can say its good to listen the intricate details of a musical note, and it plays it crystal clear. If loud is your style of music, then do not pot for it. Since @ high volumes clarity reduces a bit..

Overall thumbs up for Sony !!

3 Stars Not all the cracked up to be!
After all the five star reviews, I hesitate to be a party pooper — but the truth is these phones really are not that great for exercise. Yes, they will stay ON the ear no matter what. Yes, they are comfortable. Yes, they sound excellent when IN the ear. However, the speaker parts of the phones do not stay IN the ear. Rather, they slowly but surely work their way out and just hang there. Once slick with perspiration, this happens even more quickly. You end up pushing them back into the ear canal time and again. When you do this, you notice how nice the phones would sound if they would just stay IN! You cannot just forget about the phones because you are always, and I mean often, reaching up with both hands to push the phones back in your ear. It is incredibly annoying. If you are not picky about the quality of the sound and do not care that the phones do not sound as good “hanging” there as they do when snuggly in the ear, then these phones are for you because they do stay ON the ear nicely. If you want better fidelity, invest in a good in-the-ear canal model or purchase a set of phones that have speakers optimized for sitting just outside your ear canal and not firmly in the canal hole — such as the foam on-the-ear models similar to the MDR-G57G. The on-the-ear speakers are optimized for sitting ON the ear. The IN the ear models, such as this item, are optimized for when firmly IN the ear. Since these phones do NOT stay IN the ear when exercising, they do not sound as good as they do when you are just lounging with them. Hence, IMHO, they are not all they are cracked up to be and emphatically NOT worthy of five stars.

5 Stars Great Headphones for GYM
After doing extensive research on different kind of headphone for GYM use i picked this Sony Headphone. Its a great product for Gym use and price is very reasonable. The service provided was excellent.

4 Stars Headphones
I purchased this headset to use at work. I have been extremely satified with this product for it’s intended use and would recommend it’s purchase. They stay well on my ears and block out background noise without making my ears sore from having earbuds on all day.

4 Stars Sony Headphones
Nice design though not too attractive. Good fit, sturdy. Sound is clear, plenty of volume.

4 Stars Great idea, Satisfactory execution
These headphone are a great idea! And they work good enough for me/for the price. I dance with flow props, and I bought them so that I could clip an iPod shuffle to my hair and move with minimal interference from cords.

And they work alright, however the clips are not incredibly sturdy, with a lot of movement they will fall off your ears. The sound quality is OK, nothing great but nothing to complain about.

All in all, this is a pretty good product. If you are just using it for fun/jogging/dance practice etc they are sufficient. If you really care about the sound quality, I these are not for you.*

*If you don’t care about them being retractable, Phillips has an amazing pair of clip ons which I love and use when I don’t need as much freedom to move. They have great sound quality and last forever, I had to duct tape a piece of the decoration that did not affect sound quality but I think these head phones have been with me about 4 years and still work the same as when I bought them.

2 Stars Fine Sound For Price, but Junky Build
These headphones are fine in terms of sound quality when one considers the price. The biggest problems are as follows.

1) The piece that clips to the ear has a very delicate rubber covering that will eventually peel off. While this doesn’t make the headphone substantially less comfortable, it is annoying.

2) The “retractable cord” broke fast, and in such a way that rather than keeping the cord extended at all times, it keeps it retracted. So you essentially have to fight your headphones to keep them usable. Oh, and you can’t just let the cord move while you listen as doing so creates static.

4 Stars Nice compact phones
These on ear phones have nice sound, and a little more bass than others of this type. The retractable cord feature is really great. I use the phones on bike rides, and this prevents the usual tangling of excessive cord. My only negative is that the cord is so thin, small portable radios that use the cord as an antenna don’t work quite as well.

5 Stars good as always
i bought one in taiwan and i really like it’s design, especially the retractable cord. i bought this one because my stupid dog bit my old one. glad to find it in here since no one store carry this product.

1 Star BEWARE! Cord can tangle
I bought these cans and they worked absolutely great for about 2 weeks. Then something happened and the wind-up feature jammed. Try using headphones with a 3-inch long cord. hmf.

Have you ever edged a lawn with one of those lawn edgers? Well the cord on these cans wind up inside the headphone just like those edgers. Have you ever gotten your lawn edger line tangled? Well, these cans can end up just like that as well. The only difference is, that these cans are NOT user-servicable. That thing that looks like a screw inside these things? It’s not. Unscrew that and the thing will EXPLODE on you.

So because these might tangle, be sure to do a few things. First of all, try not to get kinks in the little cord. It is a small gauge so it has less resillience than other cans’ wires. Also, try not to wind in and out in quick or small incerments. Instead, wind it out all the way, and back in all the way, slowly.

I like these headphones, but keep in mind that IF YOURS DO TANGLE, DO NOT try to fix these yourself. After mine exploded on me because I was simply trying to untangle the line, Sony would not replace them.

Regardless, I hate earbuds, so, if anything best of luck to you.
