Daewoo AVS1287 V 4.2 Smart Power/Bluetooth Wireless Sports Earphones with Microphone - White/Gold

First pair I got didn’t work , sent them back and got a refund. Bought them again and didn’t work again , couldn’t be bothered posting them back and threw them in the bin, lesson learnt - buy cheap buy often , rubbish and a waste of time and money

I find them loose, and sized for larger ears than mine. There is no way to bend them tighter. The ear hooks are plastic (apparently no metal inside) so when I bend them tighter they don't stay in the new shape.The sound is mostly lacking bass but that may be the fit or my ears. I didn't expect hifi, but I do need them to stay put during exercise. I don't think anyone else will want them after I have tried them, so I will attempt to hack them on to a lightweight headband or something.

The headphones are wireless and connect via Bluetooth to your mobile phone, or any other Bluetooth device. For the review, I am referencing my experience of using these when connected to a Samsung Galaxy phone.The headphones come as a looped wire, that you place around your neck, with ear buds that lead off each end. The ear buds are marked L and R, so you know which way round to wear it and the controls for the headphones are on the right side.The headphones come fitted with medium sized buds, which were a little too large for my ears, but unlike other earphones sets, there were not any spare sets in various sizes, so I couldn't swap them. I had to swap the medium buds for smaller buds I had from another set of earphones which was not ideal and I am surprised there were not any other spares or other sizes included.The headphones I received are black with gold accents. The wire is made from a soft feel rubbery material that feels very light weight. It is easy to wipe clean or dry off if wet and there are no obvious areas where water could get into the workings at all, so it is pretty water tight to rain and sweat. You barely realise it is there after you get used to it round your neck either. You have full free head motion and no cables pulling or getting tangled, so it is very good in this respect.I managed to connect the headphones straight to my mobile from the box, although they were not fully charged. I did charge them up after a quick test of its capabilities, using the usb charger, which is included in the box.It takes an hour or so for the headphones to fully charge and the headphones should last for up to 2-3 hours of continuous listening, although I haven't actually listened for 2-3 hours straight, so can't make comment on the truth of that. But I have had no trouble listening for an hour in one sitting and they last longer for calls.The few buttons there are, control everything, but if you press them too long, or not long enough, they just don't seem to work properly. It will take some practice to get this right at this rate.Overall, it works well as a music receiver, but as a hands free receiver, call quality is poor in comparison and the controls are tedious to get to grips with for the different functions, but for less than £15, you can't expect too much to be honest, so for the price they are reasonable.

I am a hi-fi enthusiast and a musician of some 35 years. My ears are good and I can define soundstage, and enthused by a quality musical representation, be this through headphones, or a combination of speakers and a good amp. The problem I have is, that whilst I run and occassionally go to the gym (and travel for work), as a mid 40's forgetful individual, Iam spending a fortune on relplacement headphones. Hotel rooms, or aeroplane pockets seem to be where i leave stuff the best, (am still reeling from losing my kindle white to KLM seats). Is all my bad. So this pair of headphones fills 2 gaps:1. When I run, i don't want to sweat up up £300 pair of in ears2. If I travel I want to use a pair that I do not care for losing for movies on long haul.These fit the bill on both fronts. Solid "enough" for running and gym, i can get these skanky and not worry, moreover they are good enough for killing boredom on a flight and at this price, they are entirely replaceable.Buttons need a technique to use, BT is reliable, sound quality is fair, charge time is reasonable and play time is fair at 3 hours, call quality is below average, but passable if in a quiet place. Overall for £15 I recommend - especially for the gym or running.

These earphones are comfortable and fit securely in the year. They have good clear sound and work well for hands free phone calls. The battery life is a bit short, giving about two hours between charges.

The packaging looks great - and then you remember how much you paid for them. They're very plasticky and don't look like they'll last more than a month or so. The earpiece didn't fit me well, and is quite shiny - so for me, if I did any kind of exercise other than gentle walking, they would fall straight out. Unlike more expensive brands which provide different sized buds or adaptable ear hooks, this is one size fits all.The charge also only lasts for up to two hours, so if you're planning on anything other than a gym session, forget it.All that said - if you bought these as an effectively disposable pair of earphones, then they're perfect.
