Excellent sound from such an affordable headset

For inexpensive earbuds these have amazing sound. Lots of base, good volume output even on low- or mid-volume setting on the device. Very impressed. They're also surprisingly comfortable even for hours of wear. The handy cord winder tool isn't sexy looking but does help keep them from getting knotted up in my bag. These are my go-to buds for when I need a compact pair of buds.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Only works for a week

The first time I bought these was because I had bought an earlier version that I loved. I thought these would be the same. When I first tried put them to use the sound quality was as great as I remember. Then a month later they stopped working. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and bought another pair, same exact story. Then I got a different pair of Sony ear buds I had used and loved before as well. These didn't even last a day! I guess sony isn't what it used to be in the ear bud department. I was a lifelong fan that got let down.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

So comfortable but not durable

I have owned 2 pairs of these in the past year and both have broken! I thought the first pair was just bad luck so I tried again but they broke as well. They are very comfortable and great for running but not durable, disappointed...
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

excellent sound, not long lasting

I bought these headphones last year, they have been great up until now, sound clarity I have never heard in other earbuds, but now the left earbud went incredibly quiet, the right still works perfectly, maybe its because I use the microphone for phone calls, I dont know. I wouldve given a perfect 5 star if they still had sound in both ears, I am trying the MDRXB50 that someone got me for Christmas and already I can say they do not sound as good as MDR EX110 AP, yes there is more bass but the sound is very compromised to make the bass, guess I will just have to save up for some Bose earbuds

I bought these about a year ago. Yesterday i turned them off and all of a sudden it started blinking purple and would not turn off. Put on the charger over night and tried to turn them on the next morning and nothing. Somehow they turned on but now the buttons are not responding.

Power button won't respond
on January 30, 2019

I loved this when it worked. The battery life was great, sound was just OK. I was more worried about the battery and it impressed me. I used it yesterday and today it won't power on. The light still comes on if I plug it in to charge, but it makes no sound and no lights flash when I push the power button.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
