Yurbuds Inspire 400 In-Ear Sport Running Earphones with Microphone/Volume Control, TwistLock Technology and Tangle-Free Cable Magnets (Compatible with Apple iOS Devices) - Black

The Yurbuds Inspire 200 come with somewhat unusual rubber tips, which look as if the reach relatively far into the ear.As many friends have raised this as a concern: Nope, they don't reach any further than any pair of In-Ears would.I've tried many In-Ear headphones, and none properly feat my ears.Using Yurbuds twist-lock technology however these stay in perfectly.The earphones provide reasonable noise cancellation, but don't entirely block out the surroundings.Due to the design of the eartips they play the sound relatively loudly on a low volume level, which probably saves some battery life on my phone.The ends attach magnetically, which means that they will not entangle as easily.

My old yurbuds recently stopped working in one ear (fair enough as I'd got good use out of them) but the replacement pair are awful in terms of the listening experience. I have changed the settings on my iPod to 'small speakers' which helped a little, but it is still disappointing when I paid £50 for the headphones and delivery.Comfort is still good and I like the magnetic feature, but it does not compensate for the reduction in sound quality.

These really do work. I've used them for about six months, and have never had a problem with them coming out. I've used them while walking and running and they have performed well. They are comfortable once you get used to the technique for putting them in. At first they can feel insecure, as though they are about to fall out, but they stay in place. The magnetic back means they can be clipped around your neck when not in use and it also seems to help reduce the amount of tangling when stored in a pocket. They come with a little zippered storage pouch which is a nice touch.The only downside is that they are rather quiet. 25% sound level on my phone might be adequate for other earphones I've used, but these ones need to be cranked up to 75-80% for a similar perceived sound level. That said, the sound quality is good.

As a runner I have tried many different headphones, all of which have been disappointing. I am stunned that I have used these for over a year now and they do not fall out, they do not crackle, nor do they loose sound, even after being used very regularly. They have a twist-and-lock for each plug which is what keeps them in place. I have in the past tried other headphones which claim to do the same, but fail. I bought an extra back up pair of these Yurbuds as thought they will soon enough let me down- I have not yet had to open the new set. These are a great pair of headphones, especially for runners. Highly recommend.

Having had Yurbuds previously, I was very disappointed with this version. They are simply not loud enough ( and there is nothing wrong with my ears ! ). Sitting on a train and listening to something on my phone or tablet, requires me to turn the volume on the device up to the maximum. This simply didn't happen with my previous ones. When running outside, it is a real struggle to hear the music you are playing.

I like music while running and at the gym but have a real issue with my earphones popping out every few mins - I don't like over ear headphones as I get too warm.Thought I'd try these but wasn't as impressed as I hoped i would be. They're a great colour and come in a pouch to keep them stowed away safely when not using which is a nice addition. The magnetic clips on the headphones are really useful too when you take them our your ears but don't want to stuff them in a pocket in the gym, just clip around your neck.I have small ears and found the fitting quite snug and one I'd managed to get them in right they were quite secure and lasted a 5 mile run with no adjustment.The only big down side for me is the sound... I listen to a lot of metal and bass heavy music but it totally vaporises coming out of these headphones. Mids and trebles are very prominent but the bass is practically non existent making almost everything sound really tinny like out of a poor quality radio.Overall, headphones with good features and fits but let down by a terrible sound. Useful for runs and the gym where you just HAVE to have music but definitely not for everyday use.

Decent sound quality compare to other similar earbuds I have used. My earbuds do seem to die due to sweat. These are still going strong after a few months so hopefully are truly sweat proof.The Bass is not bad. The don't block out outside noise but I can still hear a decent sound without having them set on a deafening volume.Overall for the price paid I am please with these ear buds.

Just a warning, the black version of these earbuds are not the same as the blue/purple/pink ones. They only come with one size of cover and are huge.I was really happy to see that yurbuds had made women's earbuds in black rather than awful neons, but false alarm! Not every woman wants pink earbuds, I'm not entirely sure why companies continue to believe we do.
