These headphones where not a brand I was familiar with. I was searching for an inexpensive replacement pair for my recently broken set. I was looking for a decent price and good reviews. A microphone and volume control were a necessity, so I decided to try them out. When they arrived I was pleasantly surprised by the strong and modern packaging. Included were the headphones, a carrying case, some extra ear buds in 3 or 4 sizes, and a bracelet featuring the brand name and some other pleasant words. The headphones work great they have decent bass, and good volume control. My only initial minor issue was the size of the earbuds themselves, they stick out quite far. They were comfortable in my ear, they simply look a little awkward at first. Then you get used to it and they are fantastic. Nothing that should deter you from purchasing these headphones.
