Sennheiser PMX 686G Sports Earbud Neckband Headset for Android Devices

I had the older model of these but decided to upgrade. I'm not sure why other reviewers are complaining about the earpieces being too small or it being too tight. The earpieces are actually bigger than the older blue model due to the molded rubber rings around ear piece. Also I have a big head and it doesn't feel too tight nor any tighter than the older model.The cord is shorter but it's nice that it's flat and tangle-free. I prefer it shorter anyway since I put my cell phone in an armband case. I have an LG V20 and the volume and track skip buttons on the cord work just fine.All in all an improvement over the older model in my opinion.

Compared to older versions, I like that these are configured specifically for Android. The buttons do what they are supposed to do. These are my third pair. The first pair (original Adidas branded lime green) still function has headphones, but the buttons and mic quit years ago. The second (blue Adidas branded) worked well except button configuration was wrong for android, but one of our cats shredded the wire. These are OK, but there was a change I dislike greatly. The band is thicker, less flexible and shaped a little different making fit over glasses not as good. The ear buds don't sit as well inside my ear canals.

ear pieces want to touch, I'll have to stretch the band some. Quality is like my previous pair I've been using for many years. Volume control has no effect on my connection. But volume is loud, that is a good thing.Primarily use it with my computer.

This headset is one of the better options out there for people who have problems with earbuds falling off and also don't want to bother with charging ONE MORE DEVICE...Sound quality is very good and mic option comes handy too.I had the same model for almost 2 years, eventually the cable gave away (totally my fault btw...) It ended up in randomly skipping tracks, volume going up etc... I bought the same model here but the right earbud was not well in place so I requested to replace it. The replacement happened within 3 days.You guys are awesome!For optimal fitting I bought black ear foams. it works like a charm!Thanks a million. I have a half marathon tomorrow, I will dedicate my run to you!

I wanted a wired sports earphone, specifically for running outdoors. This one fits my needs very well. The structured one piece design makes it easier to carry, as I find the separate soft-wire ear pieces design is flimsy and always tangle up. Many people have complained about the tightness of the ear piece and thus cause aching. For me, may be my head is small-medium size (I guess), I don't find that a problem. It sits "snug" between my ears. Doesn't move as I run or jump. And I just ran a 10k race with it, no aching. I like that it does not block out ambient sound, a safety feature for running on the street as I need to be aware of cars and surroundings. Owned it for a week, so far I'm happy with it.

As you can see from the photo, the cord connecting the earbuds rests in a shallow channel in the plastic attaching the two earbuds. That channel is not sealed. Instead, the cord is held in the channel by little tabs. Six months after I bought them, the tabs are no longer holding the cord between the earbuds in place, and the cord keeps popping out.

Looks well made and well packaged, but it did not deliver what it said on the box. That being it is compatible with Android phones, I have a Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo and my phone did recognize it. The control buttons also did work so sorry, but I had to return this.

Love these things.That being said I got them for $30.Something must've been wrong at the time of purchase.I had the old yellow model which I paid full price for and loved those as well.They went missing a little while ago.They stay in place pretty well. They can work with glasses, but don't fit quite as far into the ear.May be better with wire frames (I use them with shades).

They're super fragile. my pair broke in a week.

Sound is good but it will hurt ears , it is not comfortable as expected .

After reading the reviews, I was bit confused to whether I should buy it or not. But after using the product, I feel some reviews are a bit harsh here. Please note that as per Sennheiser this product is aimed for joggers and runners, and the grip on the ear is excellent in my view. Audio qualiy is okay for the price. Original MRP is around 8k to 9k in official site and I got it for 1.5k, which in itself is an awsome deal. Moreover, Sennheiser does an excellent job as always, but audio quality could improve. The feature I was interested was the type of earbud. The screw type of narrow earbuds in other 99% of earphones is never my liking and i never use it. Thus other earphones are very uncomfortable for me. But this is the only one which has flat earbuds, like old times which is very comfortable to use. Concluding my review: 1. If you are looking for a earphone to use for jogging, 2. Flat type of earbuds, 3. Excellent grip on the ear, 4. quality product from Sennheiser and very good packing, blindly go for this.Yes, there are some downsides as well, 1. Audio does not have bass from the phone but only trebble. Look, it gives good audio via mp3 player but not much bass. (You dont need much bass while jogging in my opinion).For me, easy 5 stars!!

Sound is good but it will hurt ears within few minutes , it is not comfortable as expected .Not worth the price paid ...

200%fake product, don't buy .... because after you buy you cant even return it ,only replacement is allowed.Dont buy please it a Chinese 1st copy which worth 50 RS only
