Are these worth a fuck? I'm in the market for some non-noise isolating earbuds that don't suck and won't rip my bank account a new asshole. Seems like all I can reasonably find are noise-isolating ones. Some people say these are decent, but y'know, apple. Any input?

They're OK. Nothing great though. I use them for running/biking.
>>53888201
It's a high quality Apple product, of course it's "decent".
>>53888201
No they're not unless you got them bundled with a phone. Spend 5 minutes researching and you'll find a better, cheaper pair.
>>53888201
They are nice I guess, but they don't fit in my right ear snugly, so I'd rather have something else.

Ask in the headphone general /hpg/ thread.

How's the bass?
These are my YouTube and porn headphones for when I'm loafing around, they do fine. Also fine when going on walks and shit.

Terrible.
The highs are shit as well.
>>53888201
Yes, for the price and for what they are (non-isolating ear buds) there's nothing comparable really. You can probably find something better in the price range if you don't mind in-ears though.
Note, btw, that the microphone on those are pretty good as well. Most other microphones in that price range are noisy as hell.
Xiaomi Piston Hybrids.

Aliexpress got cheap but good quality/isolating earbuds without shippingcosts, but the shipping is mostly around 2 weeks from the better sellers like Easy and HCK

No idea.
I'm really happy with the $6ish Panasonic RPHJE120S headphones I bought. They don't sound as good as my Etymotics, but they sound way, WAY better than any other beater headphones I've tried.

Bought these at a mall for 5$ because I was in a hurry. They came generic, not Apple. Absolute shit, I've never heard such terrible sound from ear buds before. I was memed, these costs less than 5¢ to make.

So just like the real thing then.
>>53888201
OP, the Fiio EM3 is exactly what you're looking for at $15 and have much better sound quality than any earbuds Apple has ever made.

True i got me two pairs. Ill admit though compared to earpods the bass isnt as strong but not by much besides they fit much more snuggly than earpods.
