Sony MDR-AS210 Active Sports Open-Ear Headphones (Black)

Good earbuds

I have been looking for a pair of earphones which I can use comfortably when I'm working out and I got these at lightening deal. I liked the product and recommend it if you want a pair during working out. Pros: 1. Good Design. 2. The quality of sound is good. 3. Nice ergonomics. 4. No strain on ear after wearing it for a prolonged period of time. 5. Decent isolation from outside noise. 6. Value for money. Cons: 1. No Mic 2. Level of Bass could be better.

First of all for Amazon, thank you. The time slot I gave was perfectly executed, and they delivered right to doorstep (I live inside suburbs, so I thought they'll just call me to landmark.) Delivery was perfect. Now the Product, it's amazing. The color to body, it's a total Sony fan fest. It's like someone made the device the you were thinking and let it out in the market. Sound Quality, Great (It's Sony, Duh? !) Comfortability, Good. Satisfied. Looks, Enough to have compliments by others; ) In short, if you're looking here for a review for a product, you don't have any reason not to buy, go ahead.

Sony needs to improve on the position of mic in their headset. All great sound quality goes for a toss with the placement of mic at the back of the headset, that leads to very little voice reaching the other end. If you hold one of the headset (left or right) near your mouth, only then teh other person can hear you clearly. This is mainly due to the improper placement of the mic. Have been a Sony fan since many years due to robust and solid bass & performance, however, this feature kills the entire usability of the product. Have already invested in 2 different Sony headsets, however, in vain.

Worst fit for ears. It's really painful to wear them properly and doesn't stay in its position at all.I have been using amazon for years and this one product made me loose trust on amazon. Sound is Ok,what is the point when it doesn't fit into your ear itself, no question of sound quality comes into picture.earphns with no mike and it doesn't contain buds as compared to other earphones might be it would have been a better product with earbuds.Worst product by Sony and even worse is Amazon's return policy that they don't refund the electronic items instead replace the item if found defective.When the product itself is not good at users comfort no point in replacing and amazon doesn't understand this simple thing.Will never again go for amazon after having a very great experience with this product.

Good

The Sony Active sports earphones are great Pros -the rubber grip are size adjustable and hold firmly -the sound quality of the earphone is great along with the noise cancellation -the grip helps and the earphones don't fall of the ear even in vigorous exercise or movement Cons -there are no exact cons other than the fact that the earphones are complete plastic which I don't always look forward to, But the earphones for the last 2 weeks have not disappointed me

Well it is a proven fact that a good music helps immensely in workout and this tiny little product does it very well and more importantly with comfort. I have a wide range of headphones including audio technicas athm50x and bose earphones so speaking from my experience. Pros: 1) Its an open designed headphones. So the bass will not be as extremely punchy as in ear designs but these gives a very open feeling like listening music in your gym. And keeps you aware of surroundings. 2) really comfortable for workouts. I used to use Audio technicas which these are replacing after i accidently broke them. AT were good but these are much more comfortable. Stays on during heavy workout. 3) build quality is good. Looks and feels solid.. Time will tell... :) Cons: 1) if you are lokking for earth shattering bass then these are not for you , but these are not ment to deliver that, they do what they are designed to do. ☺ 2) similarly if you are more comfortable worh closed back sounds then look somewhere else, these are open can designs. In this price proint the product is completely vfm. Bought if from appio retail services and they delivered original sony product so happy about that. Will keep this review updated with time and after the burn in period.
