PALOVUELightning Earbuds - Compatible iPhone 14/13/12/11/10/8/7 Plus - MFi Certified with Microphone - SweetFlow Black

Thank you! I have been wanting some headphones with the rubber tips to use with my iphone for ages. I am old school and enjoy having a wire (I am not a fan of the bluetooth headphones or their cost!)I came across the PALOVUE Lightning Headphones Earphones after searching on Amazon and thought they were at a great pricepoint. The sound quality is great, noise cancellation is also great. They plug into the Iphone (I have an Iphone 13) and start working automatically. Nice and easy, great for walks, jogging, watching videos on public transport etc. Very comfortable in-ear and in all honesty, exactly what I was looking for.

I've been using these earphones for a good 6 months now, so I think I can give a decent summary of my experience using them. I use these mostly for listening to audiobooks and YouTube videos.The sound quality is great, not much to complain about here, and the noise cancellation is decent. It fits well and doesn't fall out my ears easily (it comes with 3 sizes of earplug which are interchangeable).Only thing I would say is that they aren't entirely invincible, and the left earpiece did die on me after 6 months of regular use (like 2-3 hours a day). However I contacted their customer support and they sent me a new set completely free of charge! (covered under the free 2 year warranty)So all in all, would definitely recommend these to anyone needing some affordable earphones for general daily use!

My first impressions were about the cable lengths. Headphones to join is 32cm. Right headphone to control is 13cm. Overall length 116cm. As with all wired headphones, they suffer from cable sonics, and the only way around this is to first wrap them over the ear. The distance to the controls is short so the controls then dangle just below your ear. At least you know where to find the controls.These are the first headphones with inbuilt cable volume control that I've owned, and I find that much more useful than fumbling to the side of the iPhone. The central button is useful for pausing music. A quick click to toggle on and off. I've not received any calls on them yet, so I cannot answer to their ability.The sound quality is very good (to my old knackered ears), with improved spatial dynamics from the iPhone coming through, which was not the case with the previous Sony headphones, using the 3.5mm to lightning adapter. I don't rate the Apple adapter very much. They work for a while, then degrade over time with various issues. I was on my third and decided to give these a go. Not having to use the adapter is definitely a bonus. I am concerned that if I yank them accidentally, then the whole headphones will have to be replaced; but the price is just low enough on these to not worry so much.The fit is reasonable, but I find there is a bit more wind noise than the Sony ones, and they are slightly harder to get a good seal for noise isolation. I think this has to do with the quality of the rubber ear tip used and its profile. Other tips could be purchased and fitted.There is a clip on the cable that can be used to hold the earbuds close together, to reduce entanglements. This is not as good as magnets on the earbud would be, but it means the earbuds are lighter and stick out of the ear less. It is up to you to decide which is best.I find them very comfortable and recommend them to anyone fed up with the adapter. So far they have worked flawlessly (1 month).4.5/5

Quality of the sound is good and noise cancellation is working fine as expected

The sound quality was great, it’s a shame the build quality is shocking, they randomly stopped working after only 2 weeks of use, I tried everything.I reached out to them via email around a week ago, still no response sadly.

A good earphone set an okay price perfect for iPhone.

They were good while they lasted but don’t last very well. The last pair I had something went wrong at the plug end and they would cut out, and crackle before they stopped working after maybe 6 months. This pair last Thursday the R earpiece just stopped working and this morning the other one has cut out. Poor quality. Doesn’t live up to the description. Would not recommend

2nd pair I’ve bought. Very good for small ears, they don’t drop out all the time. Damaged cable on first pair but they still work OK.
