Experience deep bass and rich audio with these earbuds that feature powerful 11mm drivers in a sharp polycarbonate and aluminum design. The silicone gel buds provide lasting comfort while delivering crisp sound.

Type of Listener:Avid listener
Most Important to Purchase:Sound quality
How Often Used:Daily
So I was looking for a pair of headphones that had a inline mic for phone calls and had great sound.
I recently upgraded to a HTC Wildfire S ANDROID phone. The headset that came included with it was your typical cheap headset. Really bad quality, really uncomfortable to wear etc etc. I spent a while looking around to what my options were. I landed on these and the ifrogz from Best Buy Mobile. After reading reviews and looking at the product specs in store, I decided to go for these, reason being that they have 11mm drivers for really deep bass but still retain the crisp highs. The product came with 3 sets of ear gels S/M/L. I just used the ones that were on it M. They isolate noise really well to the point of where you almost cant hear a thing. One thing that made me choose these was I have the Inked version of the skull candy's just minus the mic and I love them. These 50/50's are 10X better.
I had a few issues with these from the start in regards that they are NOT designed to be really used with androids. They are designed to be used with the ipod/iphone in mind. If your a DROID user like me this product may or may not work right. The inline mic works (sorta). If I'm listening to the radio and i get a call i can use the middle button to answer the call and hang up. If no audio is playing and i hit 1 of the 3 buttons on the mic it will play a random song from my music library .The volume up and down do not work for DROID. (have to use the phone controls)
One tell tale sign if its going to sorta work is the icon on your phone. If you connect it and you see the headphone icon WITH a MIC attached then your fine, if not then you will be using the headphones for hearing but will have to use the phone mic to speak. Bottom line is these will give you great audio regardless.... albeit some compatibility issues.
Also I think the price is a little high considering the fact of the compatibility issue, could be a little cheaper. but great audio no matter how you look at it.
What's great about it: Great sound, good bass
What's not so great: compatibility issues, price
I would recommend this to a friend!

So I had been looking for a TV for some time and holding out because I could not find what I wanted for the price I wanted to spend. Then this caught my eye and I'm not disappointed. Great value for the price, specs, features, connections...its all there for the perfect price. My only gripes, are 3 things...(1) The remote feels ultra cheap...I mean really really cheap, plus its weird in the sense of the batteries are located at the top of the remote so it is top heavy, (2) The response time of pressing the buttons and the TV responding seems to be hit or miss...takes 2 or 3 tries of pushing buttons sometimes....(3) The actual responsiveness of the menus is a little meh....needs to be more snappy...not a deal breaker, but what can you expect for a low price tv. If you want a good TV for a very good price then you can't go wrong with this TV. Dont go into it expecting a TV equivalent to Samsung or Sony LED TV's...again this is a steal of a TV for a great price. For most people this TV will be sufficient to replace a aging TV or a new smart TV purchase or someone who is not a audio or videophile...meaning spending a thousand or so more for it to say Samsung or Sony on the front. As for the smart features, they don't work well on any brand. It's like they (or any TV brand) took a basic android phones apps and put them onto the TV....it works, but not great. The benefits of this are 1080P, LED, 120Hz, 55"......thats where you expectations should begin and end. This TV shines when you get used to it and have tailored the settings to your needs and desires.....takes a few tweaks and trial and error.....but once done....it works like a gem. Very happy. If you're worried about this TV then buy the protection plan and get covered with in home service by Geekaquad. Bottom line they fix it or replace it if something was to go wrong. Though I believe this will last some time :-)

why can i only hear one side of my beats studio 2?
It works when i move the cable but then after a couple minutes later the problem continues-_-e
The cable or the cable area located by the jack itself is damaged. Needs to be replaced. Take it into the store and ask a associate to test a Remotetalk cable (Beats cable with inline mic) or a standard AUX cable to see if that fixes it. Its a common problem with headphones. Like I said it primarily happens at the base of the jack where it connects to the phone.

will best buy fix my broken headphones?
i ordered a pair of revjams xec bluetooth headphones online from bestbuy and now they are broken but the bluetooth still works and it plays out of one ear will best buy fix it? it came with a one year waranty
You have 15 days to return/exchange for another pair and you can do that in store, even if you ordered them online. Also If you have the protection plan then yes, Best Buy will exchange for a new pair in store on the spot (provided they are in stock) and it covers normal wear and tear and accidental damage for 2 years. If not then you have the manufacturer's warranty and you would need to contact them. Most of the time you have to ship it out to them then they either fix them, replace them with new or refurbished units.
