Sounded great, looked great, but...

Better than Beats Studio. But they leak just the same. They look great, they are very comfy. I loved the sound. When I turned my iPod all the way up, the bass was soooo thumping that it felt as if the earcups were bouncing of my ears. The trebles, mids, highs are decent. But they are tuned for bass lovers. Just don't think you can listen to your Lil Wayne song up on full volume during a family party. Because anyone within 30 feet of you would hear every word of the song. Check out my sound leakage review [http://youtu.be/3Gw5W-3cQkM].
What's great about it: Sound, looks, bass, very comfy.
What's not so great: Sound leakage.

Awful. Would not want as a gift. Do not get.

How Often Used:Less than once a week
Got these with my new iPod Touch. They are a step up from the old Apple Buds, but that says nothing. These leak, they feel like they are gonna fall out. Apple has cornered the market on mp3 players, smartphones & tablets, but they should outsource the stock earbuds to a headphone company, say Monster Cable. The HTC phones come w/ the iBeats, so if the iPhone 5 or iPod touch 5g came with some Monster Jamz, they could really put a stranglehold on the mp3, tablet & smartphone market. These cost $30. There are plenty of earbuds for less that are way better. Do yourself a solid and do not get these. They are so bad that I'm shocked Apple even sold these. The products they sell are top-of-the-line devices, so having these is counter-productive. Check out my review [http://youtu.be/XTjTbEeum70].

Perfect for a teenager

Overall, they are great for a teenager. They sounded & looked better than the Beats By Dre Solo HD. They also felt more sturdy than the Solo HD. They did not leak as bad as the Solo HD. I'm 5'10" & 200 lbs, so they looked small on me. Not to say I have a big head, they just did not seem to fit that well on me. But my son is 13 and these would be perfect for him. I recommend these over Beats Solo HD. I do many reviews on headphones and I gave these a positive review.

Overall, a great pair of buds. They come with the SuperTips. They do not leak much as they have a metal housing. Everything was great, except for the bass. Not that the bass was absent, it just was not like some Monster Turbines I have had the pleasure of having.
What's great about it: Sound, comfort, price.
What's not so great: Bass.

Got these for $25. If I would have paid the $60 initial price, I would have given these a bad review. But for $25, what can I really expect? The bass drowns out the trebles, etc. But they are a great pair of headphones for a teenager.

Awesome earphones. Much better than Beats in-ear. They look great, feel sturdy. Cable is nice and long. I put the SuperTips on them, so they do not fall out of ears. Best earphones you will get under $100. They rival my Monster Turbine Audiophiles and the were $200.
What's great about it: Sound, price.
What's not so great: In-line mic could be better.

Best of the Pro's & Studio's combined

Posted by: WhiteNinja

How Often Used:Daily
I had the Pro's, which blew these away in the looks & sound dept. These almost sound as good as the Studio's. But the Studio's leak so much and requires batteries...really????? Batteries? But they sounded great and felt great. The Pro's blew everything away. But comfort was an issue. And no ControlTalk. I did a video review on the white and black pair. The Mixr's got the best of both Studio's & Pro's. Mixr's do not leak very much, like the Studio's do.
What's great about it: Looks, sound, portability.
What's not so great: Nothing really

Does not have mic, volume control

The description on Best Buy website was not accurate. They do not have in-line mic, volume control. They sound great. They leak a bit. If you do not need volume control, then get these. They are worth the $65 price tag, they just do not have volume control. They tangle easily.
What's great about it: Almost everything
What's not so great: No in-line mic or volume control

Lightweight, fast. Perfect.
on February 13, 2012
Posted by: WhiteNinja
from Bronx, NY
So, I wanted a laptop that was fast, light. This comp weighs only 3.3 lbs. If you are looking for a comp to just surf the net and itunes, get this comp. I do not do games, etc. There is no dvd/cd player. But who really needs that? For $588, this is perfect. I would've loved a backlit keyboard, but the HP that had a backlit keyboard was over a pound heavier and almost double the price. Not looking for cheapest laptop, just the lightest. I returned the Toshiba Portege because it got really hot and was noisy. This comp is very quiet. It came with 4gb of RAM. But you can add another 4gb for only $25. And it has Beats audio. It's very slick looking as well.
What's great about it: Everything. Very happy.
What's not so great: Nothing.

Fast, does what I need.
on January 13, 2012
Posted by: WhiteNinja
from Bronx, NY
I wanted a fast, lightweight laptop. I only like to surf the web and download music. If I were a gamer or used my laptop for work, then maybe I would've shelled out more if I needed it. I searched, scoured, watched & read countless reviews of all laptops that were fast and lightweight. It took me months to decide because I have another HP laptop from 2008 and it's 6.7lbs, but fast, and I did not want a slower laptop. I needed to lighten up the backpack. This weighs 4.4lbs. It's perfect. It's fast. I have iMatch on iTunes, 5033 songs. It transferred all my music from the Cloud in a few hours. Honestly, I wanted a lighter laptop, but I did not want to sacrifice speed. But there are only a few laptops that were lighter and in the same price range, but they were either more expensive or slower processor. With the few things that I do with a laptop, I could not justify spending $700-$800. It did not come with a 3.0 usb port. That is only con. The chicklet-style keyboard is great. I wanted a backlit keyboard, but the cheapest laptop with backlit keyboard was $799, but had a slower processor. At $550, it's a great laptop.
What's great about it: Almost everything.
What's not so great: No 3.0 usb port. But, who cares, really?
