These wired earbuds work very well and checked off all my needs.I needed wired buds because I keep dropping them around my airplane seat and floor and that's quite yucky. These are compatible with my Bluetooth only phone and doesn't get in the way of my wrist attachment. I didn't know it had volume control which was nice but I wish it was a little lower on the cord. That's minor and I won't deduct a star. The sound quality is actually very decent. The cord itself is fabric covered which feels a little nicer. Lots of extra replacement buds are provided.For the two pack, the decent quality build and extras, all for $9.99, it's an excellent value. Five stars.
