SAMSUNG (2 Pack) OEM Wired 3.5mm White Headset with Microphone, Volume Control, and Call Answer End Button [EO-EG920BW] for SAMSUNG Galaxy S6 Edge+ / S5, Galaxy Note 5/4 / Edge (Bulk Packaging)

I've bought Samsung Galaxy phones pretty consistently since they were available. These headphones (or at least very similar) came bundled with one of the earlier models back when phone manufacturers still did that and headphone jacks were still a thing. They are some of the most comfortable earbuds I have ever used and were pretty robust, given that I would use them daily in my laptop, switch them to my phone and back. When I finally moved over to Bluetooth I kept these as my daily drivers for meetings. Sound was great. Mic quality was great, and then I yanked the cord too hard and one of the ears stopped working.Having found this listing I immediately ordered and am very happy that I now have a working set and a spare. Purchased over a year ago at the time of review and still going strong with daily usage and being shoved in my backpack. They're compatible with PC and most music players (non Apple) although I have had some trouble getting the microphone to work with Mac.They're not going to win any audiophile awards, and I'll absolutely switch over to monitoring headphones for any studio work, but for everything else I'll keep these in my backpack. Actually, I may order some more before they go out of stock.

These are truly a quality product. Sound is good, and they are durable. They are my go to brand of headphones. I put them through some hard use, and they still last over a year. My live in partner is terrible on headsets, and she gets good wear also. And this is the best price.I keep at least 2 more waiting in the box for whatever set I am using. I have some bluetooth earbuds (also Samsung), but these are good when I don't want to worry about battery life. And they are my set I fall back on when the Bluetooth units run down.

They're not OEM as advertised, however I didn't expect them to be anyhow. The lowest you can get a single legit pair for is $20 (which I also bought) and they sound pretty similar to these, they're not tinny at all and they're pretty much just lacking on the bass side which the Samsung's are known for great bass, they also feel pretty much the same which was most important for me. As a backup set these are fantastic, not sure how long they'll last but for how cheap they are I'd be happy getting a month out of them, if you have the authentic Samsung case from your original pair then storing them in that would be best if you plan to just throw them in a bag as the cord quality isn't very good so that'll help preserve their lifespan, though any hard case will do.Side note, I got these for about $10 for the 2 pack, I wouldn't pay much more than that for these so if the price goes up to like $20 then you'd be better off just getting the legit single pair with over 1,000 reviews.Update: It's been about 2 and a half months and the left earbud of the first pair I've been using is starting to go, it's not completely broken but less sound comes out of it than the right one. I honestly expected these to last maybe a month each considering the 2 pack its about half the price of a single OEM pair, so they're definitely worth the price, bumped my review up to 5 stars for how long they've lasted, will update again when they're both broken.2nd Update: the 2nd pair had the same left earbud die in less than a week so I dropped my review back down to 4 stars as I may have just gotten lucky with the first pair, I've been using the OEM pair for the past few days and they definitely sound much better for music but just watching videos or podcasts there's not a huge difference. I'll be getting them again to see if I just got lucky with the first pair.

These work for years as long as you take care of them. Anytime I need new ones, I always come back here since I love this style so much better than the previous Samsung OEM design.

En su momento bien

*** 2nd Update: Was able to have this item exchanged and the same issue - one of the pair seems to have been used (residue on the volume aparatus as well as inside crease of speaker). Each pair also had one earphone which registered very low audio - nearly inaudible sound.**Update: One of two pairs was used - earwax or dirt found under silicon bud-covering. I'm not kidding. Just opened my second pair after the first I was using for about a month went bad (right earphone stopped transmitting sound).Note to self: Always check that second pair or item that you thought you got as a "deal" to make sure it's in working and new condition, especially if you're going to put it in your ears, to make sure it in fact, is a "deal" to your liking, not a "deal" to "their" liking. I've waited beyond the return time, so I've no recourse, friends.Note to you: It brings me no joy to write such a review. On the contrary, I'd prefer to have given 5 stars, because I enjoy spreading love.*Initial Review: Great pair of earphones... if you are super gentle and handle with extraordinary care. They are seriously fragile - not durable. Expect to have these fail on you in some manner, primarily the sound going out in one earphone within a month or two if you happen to commute or use these in transit. These are my third pair of these (the first came with a Note 5, the second were through Amazon from a different retailer) and it's the same issue each time - one earphone fails and you're left having to order another pair. Grrr.*note, the second pair of these earphones I received (from a different retailer) were quite muffled actually, so it's sort of a crapshoot. For the price though, it's worth the risk.
