Buyer Beware!! January 9, 2009 These earbuds function as one of the best I've ever run across BUT, they lasted only less than two months before breaking. The joint where the rubber meets the cloth is not very well engineered so in about 7 weeks I could only hear from the right side unless I keep moving the wire. My friends tease me about being so careful with my phone so I'm pretty sure it's nothing that I did. I don't even ever put them in my pocket for fear of damaging it. If you do buy this, it would certainly behoove you to buy the maintenance/service plan for it. I paid $100 for this and I'm fuming right now because I'm back here online trying to find a replacement!!
seem good so far January 7, 2009 they stick inside your ear which is a little bit tight, dif size fittings once they are in place it seals out external sound and creates a base tube in your head. they are good if you like a tight fit earplug.
"redesigned" jack = still broke January 7, 2009 I read all the negative reviews on the V-Moda Vibes and stayed away, but when i read on Gizmodo that they had been redesigned with a new "y"-shaped jack, i assumed the pervasive issues had been corrected.
Well, I was wrong. I received my new pair of V-Moda Vibes (with the newly designed jack) a couple months ago and the left ear bud has slowly been cutting out over the last two weeks. today it's completely dead. based on the other reviews, i can expect the right one to fail soon.
Seems that the redesigned jack is only a cosmetic change and nothing has actually been fixed.
For nearly a hundred dollars they should not be broken January 3, 2009 Sometimes you get what you pay for. Not so with these. The pair I bought were broke right out of the package. The button would not work, so I returned them quickly. What are they doing with their profits? Not any quality checking that is for sure. You would think they could afford quality assurance instead of packaging and shipping broken junk.
Not the best, but good enough December 30, 2008 I've been using this headset for 2 years now. And I had to exchange them twice due to the cord breaking. But the customer service was fantastic. In both cases, I had a new pair within a week. So I have to give them a credit for that.
Now for the Vibe Duo review. I don't know what everyone is expecting for sub $100 pair of headset, but the sound quality is great. You can't expect to have the sound quality of something that cost $200 or $300 for the price of $100. Vibe Duo does everything I expected for it to do for the money and more. I use it with my iPhone so my vide duo goes with me everywhere. And I don't have to worry about having $300 headset in my pocket getting damaged or fear loosing them. The sound quality is very good but it is skewed towards the base. Overall I recommend the Vibe duo to every iPhone owner out there. (If money is no object for you, there are clearly better sounding headset, but the value for the money is hard to beat with Vibe Duo)
P.S - At home I use Sennheiser HD595
