Clamor Wired Earbuds in-Ear Headphones, 5 Years Warranty, Earphones with Microphone, Noise Isolating Ear Buds for School, Kids, Women, Small Ear

While I do have wireless earbuds, I usually only use them for exercising just because always worrying about a charge is a task and I tend to overlook that. That said, I just wanted something that was wired that I could use at a moment's notice and have great sound with a very good price. These 100% do the trick. I'm not some kind of cork-sniffing obsessive compulsive audiophile, but I like to have great sound with a good balance of lows, highs, and mids when I'm using the audio player on my phone without having to EQ anything drastic. With these, I can run the EQ flat and still get reliably superior sound. If the audio is not good, it's more than likely coming from the sound file and not these (garbage in, garbage out). These earbuds are extremely sturdy and well built, and the wiring is a bit more heavy duty than most wiring that you'd see on any other earbuds. The controls work well and I have had zero issues or complaints. I really like the mesh bag and tin (like an Altoids can) that they came in. I keep them in this, as I tend to baby the stuff that I have to keep up their lifespans, so this is very handy. I did change out the cushion earbuds themselves and put on triple flange ones that I had ordered for another pair a while back for other (now deceased) ear buds. I just favor those. I'm leaving this review as my son came to me and said he needs new wired earbuds as he destroyed his last (crappy) pair. If he ruins these, there are not other earbuds on earth that might be suitable for him. If that's not enough of an endorsement that I'm buying a second pair with the success of my first, then I don't know what would be. UPDATE (MAY 12, 2021) I've bought 4 sets of these so far. The first pair for myself well over a year ago that I use every single day for meetings (yay, telework!) and education stuff and leisure phone time. They get plugged in and unplugged multiple times a day. They are still 100% good (I baby them, clean them, and keep them in the tin). My son has ruined 2 pairs (he ruins EVERYTHING, this is no surprise). My daughter has a pair one month old and uses them every day. She loves them!! UPDATE (JULY 29, 2022) I still have mine, and they still work as good as the day that I bough them. My kids have gone through theirs, as well as a few other pairs, but they don't take care of them, so........ The replacement ear buds that I use are here: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07R8RMY2C/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I still use them pretty much every day while at work for meetings and listening to streaming music and taking classes (and communicating through various webinar/teleworking platforms). Zero issues. I do take the ear buds pieces off daily to clean them under water and wipe down the wired earbuds. I also wrap them up and put them back in the little case the same way I found them. My son ended up getting Bluetooth earbuds, which suits him as there is less to destroy overall. My things last a VERY long time, due to how I treat them. If you are careless or a big slob, then it won't matter what you buy. Definitely got my money out of these!

Update 6/21/21: OK, after 4+ months of owning these they have started to fail. After several cord yanks, the headphones are causing my phone to do random things like skip forward or backward a song or two, stop the song or even close the app. Occasionally there is some crackling in the sound also. The wiring is obviously damaged and they are annoying enough now that I will be buying a new set of a different brand very soon. As I pointed out below in my original review, the previous pair I had took a beating with far more abuse than these for over 3 years before replacement and actually cost less. These sound great while they last but the build quality now is suspect. I don't actually see any physical damage on them and yet they are failing rapidly. Original Review: I haven't owned this long but so far I can say it's a great value. The last ear bud set I bought on Amazon was a Symphonized wooden constructed pair with great reviews that was excellent also for the price. I thought that pair was going to be the best I could find for the price range but I decided to branch out and try another brand for comparison purpose. Well, I'm not disappointed. I feel like for the price, this pair is slightly better. The sound quality is great. This pair is not as bass heavy as the Symphonized pair but that's not a bad thing. All the sounds that come through sound more accurate to the music and more natural. The music sounds very vibrant with a good mix of volume and clarity in all the sound ranges including bass. So far the build quality seems good too. The cord is a nice mesh style that is far less prone to getting tangled than the last pair I owned. And it's also easier to un-tangle when it does get a little looped up on itself. So far the cord has been yanked a couple times with no negative effect. Still fully functional, but I realize it hasn't been long enough to really judge fully. The Symphonized pair was VERY sturdy and took a heavy beating for 3.5 years before finally failing so there's quite a lot to live up to there. Overall this pair is nice looking, sounds great, is easy to work with and seems to have good build quality. Also I have made a few calls on my phone with it, and that has worked flawlessly. The mic seems good. The sound quality while in a call is excellent and the other person on the phone seems to have no issue hearing me clearly. The buttons on the cord are easy to use and work as advertised so far. The one thing I wish these had that the previous pair had, is a clip for clipping the cord in place on a shirt collar or other clothing. But I was able to remove the clip from my Symphonized pair and put it on these and it works great. No issue there. So to sum up, if you prefer buds with heavy bass that is maybe a little over emphasized (which some people do and it's totally legitimate as a preference and still sounds great) I would recommend another great quality set (like the Symphonized ones) but if you prefer more natural sound with excellent clarity that is balanced, you can't go wrong with these.

Update March 28 2023: the foam eartips have apparently sucked up my earwax, deformed, and are now rock hard. The foam started off super squishy and comfy and now its just a mess. They need to find another foam material to use that wont deform or harden from absorbing ear wax. Reduced by 1 star for this. So I have been going through earbuds like crazy. I mean a lot of them. USUALLY when I am not trying out new buds, I will opt for the cheap sony earbuds knowing that I can have them in while sleeping and not hurt my left ear (laying my head on a pillow with buds in). Opening the box, small, compact, nothing crazy. Had a had written note inside thanking me for supporting a "small business" which okay. Glad I could help? lmao. Anyway. I bought the black with orange accents. Feeling the cable, I like the rubberized coating. It feels good in your hands. I would assume if you were someone into sports, this rubber coating will be great considering if you get it sweaty you will probably still have grip thanks to it being rubber and not cloth. I wont be testing that because I am not capable (handicapped). Anyway. The sound quality isn't BAD per say, but its obviously not perfect neither. When I sleep I use Binaural/Isochronic frequencies. Which generally means one frequency in one ear and another frequency in the other for Binaural, and both frequencies in both ears for Isochronic. SO FAR, I have been focused mainly on Isochronic lately. AT LOW VOLUMES like when studying, the headphones don't like it. The tones used at 70hz and 72hz which gives you a 2hz Isochronic effect. Or I will do 63hz and 70hz for 7hz Iso which is great for imagination and visualization. Anyway, at low volumes these headphones don't like having pure frequencies playing. You can hear something inside clapping like how a speaker cone will flap. Otherwise for music/tv/anime you don't have any issues at any volume. Now I just so happened to buy the Logitech G333 at the same time. Similar pricing. I will say you can tell the difference in sound profile. The G333 has more bass as it has a dual driver design. So the low end sounds WAY better in everything compared to these. However, the LUDOS here have way better upper end in terms of treble. So its sharper and thus slightly more clear sounding. The LUDOS have this weird special effect. Generally for typical "over the ear" headphones, you would have closed back and open back. Open back give you more special sound while closed back generally feel more enclosed making the sound feel closer to you. Most people don't care about this but figured I would mention it. The LUDOS somehow make you feel like it has special sound even though they are ear buds, but at the same time they are feel close. So you get this weird close but far sound from them. Its not bad, its just, unique. This is generally personal preference anyway. I don't mind it, some "audio snob" might care. Granted I don't think audio snobs are buying cheap headphones! LOL. So far, I am happy with these. I ESPECIALLY love the colored foamy tips they come with. I haven't even tried to crack open the extra pack of tips because I just LOVE how comfy the foamy tips are. I personally think all brand should go with the foam like tips as LUDOS have. Honestly the BEST feature in my opinion.... Again I am happy with these, mainly because I can wear them when I sleep. Which is the main reason for my buying earbuds in the first place. When I am up and about, i generally where my snobby Sony MDR-Z7M2 cans which are just, next level..... Sadly the G333 cannot be worn when sleeping, they hurt my ears.... So LUDOS won my nighttime. NOW the question is, how long do they last. My sony earbuds generally last 6 months which isn't great. Granted sleeping with headphones is considered "abuse" at least in my mind. My last pair of earbuds were JVC memory foam earbuds which sadly only lasted from DEC 2022 when I bought them until January 2023 when I got these LUDOS to replace them. So yeah the JVC couldn't handle the stress of my nighttime routine (mainly the drivers failing due to pure frequency being played all night long and not actual content like music/etc). I hope LUDOS get some frequency reading gear for output, so they can test their earbuds and find the frequency curve. Everything used to make a headphone will effect its sound in some way. Sometimes minor, sometimes major. The housing material (plastic, metal, composite, etc) to the shape of said housing and even the shape inside where the sound bounces around before it gets to your ear, to the driver being used, the cable thickness and length, can all effect the sound. Going off my own ears and knowing what neutral headphones should sound like, these are definitely not a flat response. However, I will mention again the upper end, the treble range, sounds extremely good. Very clear and sharp. For those that prefer that kind of sound profile. If you want more bass and less top end, the Logitech G333 would be a better alternative (1:1 comparisons without using an equalizer, obviously you could in theory use an equalizer to add bass to the LUDOS and make them sound more full on the bottom end). OTHERWISE, these have been great SO FAR for me.

EDIT 2 [OCT. 8, 2020] After getting in contact with customer service, they were very amicable and understanding, offering to send a replacement for the defective product. The replacement pair was back on par with the standard I came to expect from Ludos, and works properly! I can go back to recommending them in good faith knowing that customer service is reasonable when it comes to these kinds of issues. ___________________________ EDIT: So this brand had pretty much become my go to. Bought the headphones a couple times, and they were great! Lasted a decent time, good sound, the whole shebang. However, my most recent order was a total dud. The volume controls didn't work properly as they should. The sound would sometimes fade out in one ear if you moved the cord a certain way. Just a big let down. Which sucks, because I really liked this brand. Can't really keep recommending them with a glowing review if they send out duds, though. EDIT 2: It's even worse than I thought. Just tried to take a class with these bad boys...the mic isn't even functional. I'm gonna have to drop it another star. I sincerely hope this isn't indicative of a drop in quality. I really used to see this as a reliable brand...but a pair of headphones with this many problems on day one? I'm just...so disappointed. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These are definitely a solid pair of earbuds! It's always a struggle finding a good pair based on reviews, and the old brand that I used to buy from has steadily declined in quality. However, these are absolutely amazing! Nice clear sound, no tinny sound--they get nice and loud and even do a good job at noise cancellation. I definitely haven't found anything that can best these at this price. Nice to have found a new go to.

Good sound, multiple sized buds included. Much better than the crap wired earbuds you get on some flights. Way more comfortable than apple earbuds to me. I bought an adaptor to use with iPhone. Haven’t had them very long so I won’t talk about longevity. Much healthier than wireless from what I have been reading. Also keeps your phone away from your brain. Great value so far. Update: lost my first pair and just repurchased same thing. The additional ear buds are round instead of the elongated ones shown on the product. I find them more comfortable, more external sound blocking(sizing) but strangely enough they make the earphones sound better to me. More bass and less tinny. I really like these. I hope whoever found my other ones enjoys them as well. 😆

They're solid all round but not amazing. Only issues I have. There's a slight buzzing when there's no sound, and no mute button. Honestly other than that not half bad for $20 I use them with the series x Hope this helps someone. 👍 Edit: They lasted a month and right earphones went out and people started echoing through the earphones somehow... They were nice enough to reach out to me and give me a refund.

Lovely so far! Much better than i thought they would be. Fits perfectly. didn't have to change out earbuds, sound is loud and bass is great as well. couldn't have asked for anything better! Got this after receiving the Hyperx Earbuds 2 that were sent broken and earbuds didn't fit well as well. If you are planning or looking for great earbuds, don't hesitate to get these you guys.

I originally bought these so I could use them during online school. I liked the little storage container they came with. They sound good, people can understand me pretty well if using the mic. The only complaints I have is that they're not really soundproof, I can hear a faucet dripping from across the room or people talking in the background even with music playing. I can also hear a quiet hhhssshhhhh-ing sound while I'm using them? I'm not sure what that is or how to adjust my settings so I don't hear that. And then the silicone covers aren't working for me because they both really irritate my ears(I've never had an allergy to silicone?) and they slip out when my ears start to develop moisture. I picked the covers that fit my ears best, which were the smallest ones, the others were too big and hurt my ears.
