Pro Excellent value for money
At this pricepoint S4i headphones offer excellent sound quality and, on top of that, they include a decent microphone and useful bundled extras.
Pro Comfortable
The uncommon oval eartips allow for comfortable use of headphones.
Pro Decent sound quality
S4i offers clear highs and rich lows while not over-emphasizing any of the two, thus allowing for the headphones to keep a rather balanced profile. Of course, it's not perfect, the bass can distort a bit at higher volumes and highs can be fuzzy at certain situations, but at this price point it
Con Limited functionality with some mp3 players
Due to S4i using the Apple chip to control iOS devices, full call support or device control might not be possible with all mp3 players.
Pro Exceptional sound quality
The selling point of X10i is the exceptional sound quality. It has a balanced profile with crisp highs, deep and tight bass and clean mids.
Pro Multiple tips to choose from
X10i headphones come with 5 sets of tips - 3 standard and 2 double-flanged.
Pro Good sound quality
These headphones offer rich bass, great dynamics and detail, although the mids feel a little on the weak side.
Pro Includes a cable for splitting audio signals
The headphones come bundled with a 3-to-2 pole cable for splitting your input and microphone output. It allows you to use them with devices that don't provide dual functionality ports.
Pro Reasonable sound quality with an emphasis on bass
The highs are crisp, the mids are clean and bass over-emphasized, but not as much as to overwhelm everything else.
Pro Sweat proof & washable
These headphones are designed with joggers and gym rats in mind. They won't stop working due to rain or sweat. They can even be washed, as long as it's done carefully and by hand.
Pro Many tips to choose from
RHA MA-450i comes with an uncommon 7 pairs of tips so you can adjust how the earphones fit in great detail.
Pro Good build quality
RHA MA-450i earbuds are housed in an aluminum body offering durability.
Con Low quality braided cable
Not only does the cable starts unraveling soon after purchase, it tends to tangle more than a typical braided cable.
Pro Automatically turns on when put in ear and turns off when taken out
Hint is equipped with an Infrared proximity sensor that's used to active Hint when put in ear and turn off when taken out.
Pro Sits comfortably in-ear, with nothing sticking out
Moto Hint sits comfortably in-ear and unlike other Bluetooth headsets, doesn't stick out and is barely visible at a glance.
Con Poor sound quality compared to wired options
Inherent to small wireless in-ear devices that have to pack a lot of functionality and transmit data over a limited bandwidth, is the fact that they can't achieve sound quality that's on par with wired devices.
