ELR50 VC

Due to my work I have unfortunately grown to be technically experienced and very picky when it comes to my audio. All I wanted was a cheap pair of ear plugs to keep the world out of my head whilst I do my daily commute (there is no way I am leaving the house with £400+ worth of gear with my usual pair) so I wasn't expecting much.They arrived in a very nice box with a clip, extra sizes of rubber bits, and a neat little pocket carry pouch. They look as though they were 4 times the price of what I paid for them, very pleased initially. 5/5.In terms of the sound, they are a little bassy compared to other pairs on the market, and the highs are a bit tinny. Anything below 100Hz and above 10KHz can be tweaked if you use an equalizer of some sort and that did make a huge difference. I have been told by people I speak to over VOIP and cellular that the microphone sucks, and I should get a better one :(. For the price however, 4/5. I don't think the folks who are complaining realise that anything else priced as well as these sound the same if not worse!I had to use the smaller size of rubber in-ear bits and they are quite comfortable. I am able to wear them for an hour or two without realising they're there. Only issue is that they create a vacuum in the ear canal that can be a bit uncomfortable when removing them and they do isolate you from outside sound. Besides that, no issues 4/5.They're strong, durable and look like they won't break as easily as other brands such as Philips and Senheiser. 5/5 for that!So overall in terms of value for money and overall quality these are probably the best pair you can buy in the £25 and under market. I am very happy and hope they last! I'll give these a 5.

I've had different brands of headphones in the past, some cheap and some really expensive - also Apple headphones which I think are awful! Anyway, normally you can tell which are cheap and which are expensive due to differences in sound quality. However, these are incredible! They're a good price but, quality wise, I can't tell the difference between these and another pair I have that were 5x the price! I bought these as a backup in case I lost or broke my more expensive pair but I now use these daily.They look and feel high quality, the sound quality is excellent and the mic also works really well. The ear buds are comfy and ensure the headphones stay in your ears and the good fit also helps keep external noise out meaning you don't need the volume up so loud! You also get three pairs of ears buds in three different sizes so you can get the right fit for your ears. In addition, you get a little pouch to keep the headphones in so they don't become a tangled mess at the bottom of your bag!Amazing headphones, still can't believe the price!

Choose these after losing a pair of v-moda earphones that are now discontinued. I thought I'd just get a cheap pair of earphones to see me through until I sorted out a proper replacement. However, these are unbelievable considering the price and I'll stick with these until they break (more likely I'll lose them knowing me). Build quality is decent - not top end but certainly not budget. The wires are a little skinny for my liking but surpringly don't get tangled too badly. The sound quality is what makes these stand out to me, comparable to earphones 5 times the price I would say. Comes with the standard 3 sets if rubber tips and also 1 foam set. I managed to get a good fit and they are sufficient light that they stay in my ears no trouble. I've had them a few weeks and I'm very tempted to buy another pair for when these one give up / disappear.UPDATE April 2019: I'm now on my third pair of these. The last two pair are different from the first pair - The wire is longer and has a different coating. The Sound quality straight out of the box is still fantastic for the price. Unfortunately the latest 2 pairs have both developed the same problem where the left earbud has gone very quiet. I will buy one more pair, but if they develop the same problem I will start looking elsewhere.

I don't know what it is, but these earphones make me come back again and again. I still have the other 2 pairs that I bought, so let me tell you why I'm on my 3rd.The first pair lasted me a while and the first thing that I really noticed was the cable was very sturdy and did not catch onto clothes' fabric like some other cheap(er) or even more premium brands. I used it for a good few months to a year before I dropped one of the earphones in water while I was doing the washing up. Not ideal, but I changed the earbuds with some of the spares the earphones came with and kept using them. After a while, I started noticing a poor quality in sound in the left one which was previously dropped in the water.That's when I decided to purchase my 2nd pair. The 2nd pair arrived and I was once again hooked to the deep bass and crisp sound. 2 weeks into my purchase and a freak accident happens: I used to keep my earphones on the passenger seat of my car and one time, after arriving at work I noticed something hanging out of the passenger door: the earphones were safe inside the car while the jack plug had been dragged on the road and nearly smooth on one side. A normal person would have rightly binned the 2nd pair, however I plugged it into my phone (bad idea) and they still worked. I continued to still use them for a while till they kept coming off and disconnecting from my phone and laptop.I finally decided to invest in my 3rd pair whilst still keeping the other 2 as souvenirs/reminders. This is a great pair of earphones and after years of looking for the perfect product, I think I might have finally found it.
