What's great about it: Low price, easy on the ears, NO WIRES!
What's not so great: Could fit a little better
Priced right, these headphones are great for jogging and races. I wear them on 5 or 10 K races, and I love it. No fuss, no wires, just put on, select volume and run.

What's great about it: the fold up feature, the sound it delivers, and no ear buds
What's not so great: the foam ear pad fell off and is lost
This product is tremendous. It was the best thirty dollars I ever spent. I'm into long walks and this product relieves me of the ever troubling ear buds. It really enhances my ipod shuffle experience to a new level. Thank you DYNEX.

What's great about it: Lightweight, No wires to catch,
What's not so great: All buttons but volume down are hard to get to due to plastic
These headphones are the best thing going if you are getting sick of your wires getting caught in machines at the gym (or getting whacked by them while out running). The sound quality is decent, lets face it - if you are an audiophile expecting great sound from this style earpiece and an MP3 player, you need to go read the definition of audiophile again.
They are lightweight, almost not noticeable after a few minutes of wearing them. However the adjustments are mediocre, they can slip out of position on the ears after a while. The controls are also partially blocked by the plastic surrounding the shuffle. While not a deal breaker, the designer of these needs to open that opening just a little bit more.
Getting used to the tilt of the player in order to actually control it takes a little while, as it doesn't sit level, but at a slight angle. One other issue with them is the earpiece covers - I haven't seen any replacements available. With their target audience, sweaty gym people, I would have expected to see some replacements available for sale.
All in all a very nice product, possibly made by Monster Cable (see iFreePlay on their site) for a good price. They fold up into a smaller package, which is great for stuffing into your gym bag's pocket.

What's great about it: Being able to go wireless with headphones
What's not so great: The sound quality is horrible.
The idea of this headphone is awesome. There are many problems with having a wire, like it catches onto things when you hang it around and restricts flexibility when you keep it in your clothes. But, the sound quality of these headphones are so bad that I can't give up wires to use this pair of headphones. If you're fine with cheap headphones, this is okay. In comparison, the Sony MDR-G57 is around the same price and style and the sound quality is much better.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: lightweight, great sound
What's not so great: hard to shuffle songs or change volume
These are light weight and fit great. It is nice to have no headphone wires dangling. The only problem I have noticed is that you want to shuffle to another song or change the volume, it takes a bit of practice and it is not too easy. But overall this is a nice product.

By far the best way to listen to your shuffle. No wires! A good deal if you get it on sale for $20. Monster makes a similar headphone, but it's overpriced.

What's great about it: No annoying wires
What's not so great: None
I needed something to hold my shuffle in since I damaged it getting sweat on it when working out, so when I saw these on the best buy ad I had to get them.
This is an incredible item, holds your shuffle and eliminates the wires, now I don't have to untangle and mess with the old headphones anymore! Even the armbands and cases that are available aren't wireless.
The sound quality is superb for a "low end" brand. Ran on the treadmill at the gym and they were secure the whole time. One of the best products EVER. Thanks dynex!

What's great about it: Really lightweight and controls are easily accessible while moving. Wears securely while moving and not bulky-looking.
What's not so great: Not able to use a protective cover on shuffle while docked in headphones.
I picked up a pair after I was getting bothered by the headphone cord dangling from my upper arm. Wireless is such a nice change. Was worried about the headphones being bulky, with the star trek look, but was relieved to find they are very sleek looking. iPod controls are easy to use while wearing them and headphone feel secure while running. Only thing is you can't use a protective covering on the shuffle while it's docked in the headphone so unsure how a light drizzle or rain would affect the iPod. But, the headphones fold compactly and would easily fit in your pocket so, no worry.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Very nice not having any wires and just having everything in one piece.
What's not so great: A little bit cheaply made, but for price not bad.
Just got these today and have been using them for about an hour. I am cordless and it is wonderful! The only thing I would say is that it is a little bit cheaply made. I would recommend them for people who have shuffles and like to walk/work out/run. Nice.
