MDREX155AP in-Ear Earbud Headphones/Headset with mic for Phone Call, Black (MDR-EX155AP/B)

These Sony MDREX155AP earbuds perform flawlessly with both my PS4 and PS5 controllers. I picked them up as a convenient alternative when I don’t want to fire up my full stereo setup or my high-impedance headphone amp. The audio quality is outstanding—I can’t fathom the complaints in some reviews, especially at this price point. They deliver crisp, impressive sound and even outperform my AirPods 4 in both playback and mic recording, which makes sense given the tech differences. It’s frustrating how Bluetooth standards have led to overpriced wireless options that suffer from audio compression and end up sounding mediocre. These wired buds hold their own against any of my Bluetooth earbuds or headphones—skipping the built-in amp and wireless receiver really elevates the clarity and fidelity. The microphone picks up voices sharply without any artificial noise reduction, and the silicone eartips do a solid job sealing out background sounds so distractions are minimal. They’re lighter than pretty much every wireless pair I’ve tried, and the included cable clip lets you tweak the cord length just right, avoiding those annoying snags that yank them out of your ears. The fit is spot-on and secure, and they’re way more compact than bulky wireless models. I honestly believe wired audio deserves a renaissance—it’s never truly gone away, but so many folks have forgotten the advantages it offers. These are an absolute steal for the money.

The only earphones that last me a long time. The earbud fitment isn't the best, but u can always replace them, and then they become more comfortable. The sound is pretty clear & the quality is too. After my first pair broke down two years of use later, I had to buy another pair, because they're the only good pair of earphones (at this price) that last a long time.

good sound. takes tinkering to find the right fit

Truly pleased with my Sony buds. I find myself exclusively buying Sony earbuds lately for quality, sound and value. I bought these after my daughter used my older Sony earbuds that are nicely broken-in and she won't give them back! ;P I have been pleased with these so far, even stepped on them accidentally, and while they got scratched up bad, they still work great and I don't care because they were a steal! I've used the phone function on them several times and have had no quality issues; I can hear the caller and they can hear me clearly. Music quality is very good, not great, but very good for the price and sound better than buds costing 3 times as much. Fit is good, but wouldn't recommend for exercise, etc. as they tend to easily fall out with vigorous movement. That's not what these were designed for anyway. Comfort is very good for long listening as long as you choose the right size tip. So far, great little buds for the money after almost a year of use.

Coming from sony (and considering its price for wired earbuds), I had high expectations. The quality of the earbuds is fine. The wires are all designed in a way that they take very low stress and are less prone to breaking from repeated bending and/or fraying. The actual buds are ergonomically angled so they fit into your ears with minimal fuss. The sound quality itself was the biggest disappointment. I've had betron earbuds that were a fraction of the price and had spectacular sound quality with rich bass and brilliant treble, but the sound I got out of these was comparable to $5 skullcandies i bought 5 years ago. The sound is thin, tinny, and nowhere near the "gorgeous" sound sony claims. the bass frequencies are non existent and the treble and mid ranges sound like they're playing from a speaker underneath a mattress. vocal songs sound like they're playing into an empty bean can. i've messed with the equalizer panels on both my phone and computer, but nothing changes the weak, airy sound quality I get. it just feels like I bought a $30 piece of trash. call me petty, call me a karen... but if you're paying 30 bucks for a product from a big audio brand you'd at least expect some good sound, even for wired earbuds. If I wanted this tinny, hollow sound I would've spent 5 bucks on skullcandies or jvc. as earbuds? yeah, they work. but for the price? no darn way.

Nice product..Bought 2nd time..

Good quality in ear earphones; however disappointed at lack of remote features , no volume adjustment; have to manually adjust volume on phone.

Bonne qualité sonore avec prise coudée limitant l’usure du câble lors des manipulations et/ou mise en place pérenne sur périphérique. Petit point négatif : avec le temps la colle unissant les deux parties de l’écouteur (support du caoutchouc et boîtier protégeant le système audio) perd de son efficacité. Résultat, lors d’une tension modéré du fil de l’écouteur les deux parties se dissocient ne me restant que l’intra-auriculaire dans l’oreille et le reste de l’écouteur pendant dans le vide (-1 étoile).

Los he usado poco pero ya saben que la marca Sony es una garantía y puedo decirles que es un muy buen producto.

Good for the price, don’t expect much
