I bought this a couple years ago and it still sounds great after all that time. Of course it's not as bassy as other in ear earbuds, due to its open design. That said I was using Apple 3.5mm earpods before this and the t205 sounds much better. I love the open ear design, because while commuting I can hear my surroundings without compromising sound quality too much. Of course if you're looking for better noise isolating earbuds go with something else. That said it is a little larger than apple's earbuds. You may feel uncomfortable using it at first but my ears got used to it and it's definitely a sure fit. The only issues are that some of the chrom colored paint rubbed off, probably just due to its age and being stuffed in pockets over and over. I've been taking good care of it so there's no signs of deterioration with the sound yet, but when this one breaks I'd probably buy another one.
I would recommend this to a friend!

JBL always makes quality product. It has great clarity but low bass. Only problem is the material is hard plastic so if it doesn't fit properly its gonna hurt your ears after a bit.

I've had these headphones for almost 2 years now. I use them almost daily. I like that I can be aware of my surroundings if I am out in public. The music sounds good on them. Whenever I am talking on the phone with these the person on the other end can always hear me perfectly. I also like that whenever I had to ride the bus it was obvious I had headphones in so people wouldn't talk to me. Sometimes I wouldn't even be listening to music. :)

JBL T205

Um ótimo fone de ouvido e qualidade sonora dentro de suas limitações do estilo do fone. O cabo achatado e pesado complica o uso em caminhadas, pois o fone é leve e compacto e o balaço do cabo faz com que constantemente saia da orelha (seria mais interessante um cabo comum redondo e fino), mas quando coloquei aquelas espumas clássicas de fone de ouvido pequeno, o problema de sair da orelha diminuiu bastante e o conforto no uso também melhorou. Esses são os dois pontos negativos que observei, o cabo e a fixação na orelha, de resto esse fone manda muito bem, um excelente substituto para o fone da apple (com cabo p2 para aqueles que n querem um overEar ou inEar). Recomendo a compra e indico também adquirir um par de espumas para revestir ele, o uso realmente fica mais agradável.
