My head vibrates
by TRobe0311 on December 13, 2010
Pros: Deep, rich bass. Clear sound. Eartips fit nicely and block out most ambient noises. Flat cable seems sturdier and tangle-free
Cons: Left earbud is weighted down due to in-line mic.
Summary: The fact that the left side is weighed down is only thing keeping this from being a perfect product. I had Monster Turbines but the cord went after 3 months (...
Summary: The fact that the left side is weighed down is only thing keeping this from being a perfect product. I had Monster Turbines but the cord went after 3 months (thank you Best Buy no-questions-asked return policy) so i got these with the store credit. I have no regrets whatsoever. Listening to songs with deep bass puts you in a trance it's so rich and amazing. Much love to these.

Great replacement to my Bose headphones, good bass too!
by yottabyte21-208644521796496775 on October 5, 2010
Pros: Great bass response, nice set of options as far as fitting goes, microphone built in is a huge plus, flat cable means less tangling and greater endurance, nice that the 3.5mm portion fits well into my iPhone 4 even with the Apple Bumper installed.
Cons: there's not much that i don't like other than the case that it comes with for carrying could be a little bit larger.
Summary: my Bose in ear headphones lasted me a great 2 years, but because of the regular cabling, the wire began to come undone near the tip that plugs into the ...
Summary: my Bose in ear headphones lasted me a great 2 years, but because of the regular cabling, the wire began to come undone near the tip that plugs into the port. These new Diddy Beats headphones are sturdier, and with a noticeable amount more bass when listening to my music which I like.

by blondiesman on May 12, 2011
Pros: these headphones sound great fit great and look beautiful. the cost is alittle high for someone who wears these at work but well worth every penny
Cons: could use noise canceling mic, back ground noise in the mic is alittle annoying
Summary: i would recommend these to anyone that wants high quality without paying a super high price!

These are great and look really slick. Block out sound!
by jleighred on April 2, 2011
Pros: The black/chrome headphones are very sophisticated in style but the best part is the choice of ear attachments that come with the headphones! I personally prefer the foam because they shape to your ear and they really do block out most all outside noises
Cons: The other earphone parts that come with are just too much and wasteful. I wish more of the foam earphones came with but instead there are only one pair.
Summary: Great overall. Would advise others to buy. I had the Bose in ear headphones and they were great for 4 years but never sounded as good as Diddybeats. They are ...
Summary: Great overall. Would advise others to buy. I had the Bose in ear headphones and they were great for 4 years but never sounded as good as Diddybeats. They are a bit overpriced so if you don't use these everyday, go for a less expensive but reliable pair of headphones.

Very stylish but sound quality doesn'tt justify price.
by KennyRedd on July 25, 2010
Pros: Good looking earbuds. The materials and styling is top notch. Comes with a carrying case and controls on the wires that work with your phone or ipod touch.
Cons: Does not work with older ipods. Not enough difference in sound quality between these earphones and the free ones you get with ipod to justify spending $150.
Summary: If you have to have the newest thing out, and brand name and logos are important to you then get these earphones. I am a casual listener and mostly use ...
Summary: If you have to have the newest thing out, and brand name and logos are important to you then get these earphones. I am a casual listener and mostly use my earbuds to work out. These earbuds have a very crisp clear sound, but like I listed in the cons section of my review, the difference between these and the free earbuds you get with your ipod is not worth $150.
