BetronB25 Earphones, Noise Isolating in-Ear Wired Headphones with Strong Bass, Tangle-Free Cord, Lightweight, Carry Case and Soft Earbud Tips, Black

+Metal body+Small size+Very good bass+Excellent sound for the price-Trebles sounded a bit "stuffy" until "broken-in" after first 12hrs.-Replacement tips from other earbuds are a very tight fit on these.-They don't seem to muffle outside noise quite as well as other earbuds I've used, even with memory foam tips._I bought these mainly for use with my VR headset, as they required a wired set of earbuds. My initial impression was not good, but "the price was right". I shelved these for a few months until recently, after I read somewhere that some earbuds need to be "broken in" with 12 hours of playback.They do sound much better afterwards! For sure, there are better earbuds out there in the $30-$60 range, but these sound excellent for the ~$10 price point. These single 10mm drivers surprised me with how good they sounded once broken in. Really good bass and clear trebles.Nice build quality. Metal body with textures to grip for removal. They are quite small compared to other earbuds I've used. This gives them a more sleek profile that sits a little more flush in your ear. They don't seem to block outside sounds quite as well as other earbuds (even with memory foam tips), but they certainly still isolate from noise.My only real complaint is that replacement tips from other earbuds don't fit these without stretching out; the tip interface is wider than all my other earbuds. This is the only time I've encountered this issue across five different sets of earbuds, but it still works out.

I will be the first to tell you, I am hard on earbuds. I usually have them develop a short in the first two months, they generally either stop working entirely or lose all sound in one of them by three, and I'm replacing them in frustration in six months. This has ALWAYS been the case. I've had these for a month now, though, and there's no early signs I'm going to short out. In addition, the cord, while traditionally thin, is coated with a flexible plastic or silicone layer that makes it really sturdy for a set of ear buds. And while the noise cancelling isn't perfect (no earbud set will be for noise cancelling), it's about as good as it gets, i think. PLUS--and that was key for me--I have severe migraines, and I had one last week, and just having the ear buds in--no sound, just in the ears--cut out a LOT of the ambient household noise and allowed me to rest. I am VERY pleased with these earbuds, and when the time comes to replace them, I'll definitely be looking at Betron again.

I was skeptical at first when I purchased these, and to be honest, I think I'm leaving a bit impressed. I primarily use these at an office, and it tends to help cancel out any excess chatter in the background, and allows me to listen to my music.Sound Quality: When the subject of quality come to music, especially popular formats such as MP3's, discussions can be had. The device itself will play it's best with it's capabilities, including the digital content provided. For instance, 128 and 320 mp3 standards are different. My opinon, given the best quality of mp3 format you can with your music, these play them on a 3/5 scale. NOT THAT ITS BAD, but because with anything as low price as this, you're not experiencing the true audio quality. This is good for you're "standard" listening, or shopping on a budget, or travelling.Noise Cancellation: I use these at an office regularly, and I've found that I've not been able to hear the people sitting next to me when I wear this. Sometimes, vaguely, you can hear something, but not enough to be disturbed. There are probably better on the market, but for these at their current value, you're getting a good exchange. 4/5For working out: 3/5 The cord is a bit to long, and I find it always being an issue for when I'm running or exchanging weights from the gym equipment. If you're intending to just do a walk on a treadmill for a half a mile or two, you'll be fine, but as far as running; you'll need to be careful. I think these are mediocre, at best, for actual gym equipment. You'll need to make sure you have the right sized in-ear bud to fit you're ear snug enough for it to not jar out of place and causing an problem.Overall: The cord is a bit long, the noise cancellation the better feature, with good enough sound quality to satisfy most people. I'd say for the price you're getting these, with the included In-ear bud sizes and than some in case you lose any is a bargain. I've bought worse pairs for 5-10 dollars more, to be honest. I'd say these are a great pair for travel, work, and sometimes the gym depending on the exercise. Overall, 4/5 for the bargain and noise cancellation.

good sound

I bought these to replace a set of Betron DC950 earphones which got ruined by liquid. Amazon was not currently selling the DC950 so I took a chance with the B25. Though they look similar, the performance was disappointing. The bass is decent but the mid-range and high frequencies were all flat. I tried them for a week hoping I would adjust but the audio really bugged me. I decided to order an open-box DC950 on eBay. It arrived tonight and the audio is excellent. Betron makes good earphones but for my money the DC950 is a better way to go than the B25.
