Vibes 202MC USB-C Wired Earbuds - USBC HiFi in Ear Headphones for iPhone 17/16/15 - Noise Isolating Ear Buds w/ Mic - Clear Sound, Deep Bass & Comfort-Fit Earphones - Silver Plated Cord, Carrying Case

So I was gifted a pair of Shure Aonics 215’s through my church when I became the drummer for our worship team.Unfortunately, around six months later, they came up missing.So I’ve spent a long time borrowing spare on ear monitors, but they are usually shorted out with one functioning ear.I finally started looking for temporary replacements and came across these Vibes.They blew me away because these don’t seem like no $30 monitors.The sound quality is fantastic, the fit is great and they do a pretty darn good job at noise cancellation.These are far better than I expected and I’ll be putting them to the test this Sunday at church.Would highly recommend!’

Yo, let me break it down like a bassline hittin’ in the back of a Cadillac. These Vibes 202ML Wired Earbuds ain’t just headphones, they the VIP pass to the front row of every track you play. We talkin’ HiFi in-ear symphonies, noise-isolatin’, mic-rockin’ beasts that make your playlist hit harder than a 90s boom bap beat.First off, that silver-plated cord? It’s flossin’. Shinin’ like a fresh chain, but tougher than your uncle’s old Caddy. It flexes, it bends, it bounces back like a comeback album. And that MMCX-Lightning connection? It’s like your earbuds just signed an exclusive deal with your iPhone. Crisp, clean, no static, no drama—just pure, uncut sound.The fit? Comfort like a velvet tracksuit in winter, snug but never tight, like these buds were molded from the blueprint of your ears. You can rock ‘em all day without that ear fatigue that hits you like a late rent notice.And the sound? Bruh. We talkin’ clear highs, mids so tight you could bounce a quarter off ‘em, and bass so deep it’ll make your subwoofer blush. These buds hit low notes like a baritone on a mission, but keep the treble high and tight like a fresh fade. Every snare crack, every hi-hat tick, every verse spit—crystal.Oh, and they come with a carryin’ case, so you can roll up like a pro, pull ‘em out, and flex on anyone still rockin’ those Bluetooth plastic toys. These buds ain’t just for listenin’—they for livin’.So if you serious about sound, if you want that concert-in-your-cranium experience without the wireless dropout heartbreak, grab a pair of these Vibes 202MLs. They’ll have you spittin’ lyrics and noddin’ your head like you just signed to Def Jam. 🎧💥Verdict: 10/10, these buds got bars.

Plug has no proper strain relief. Also, on the unit I received, I have to push the plug sideways sometimes to get it to make contact. It does this on all of the devices I use, although they all work fine using other headphones. This vexing issue is my main complaint. Audio quality is good for this price point.Update, I emailed the manufacturers tech support; they advised the problem was likely with cable assembly and they would send me one. This replacement cable cured the issue. The audio performance (IMO) is good on these for this price point and I consider them to have very responsive tech support.

Great headphones and audio except that over the ear part irritates skin after a while.

So loud I have to set windows to 15% sound! Still complete sound coverage. Clear and deepI was looking for a pair of plug in earbuds because my Sony wireless ones do not like to connect to Windows 11 on my laptop, no idea Sony issues. These have exceeded all expectations of how good a small in ear can sound, and the price was right for an item that feels and sounds like a several 100 dollar unit.Also of note works just fine with a USB C extension cable.

They feel great, they sound great, call audio is great. Wireless earbuds still aren't good enough despite nothing having a 3.5mm jack anymore so it was back to wired for me, even if it does mean tying up my USB port. The only complaint I could fabricate is volume. It gets very loud. I find myself only using one to two tics of it on my phone, and I wish I had finer control over the volume but I suspect that's on my phone rather than these earbuds. Love the fold-over ear mold too, I no longer have to worry about earbuds falling out.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Junk. No mic. It claimes to have mic.

Finally found a set of earbuds that beat my 20+ year old Skullcandy. I don't even know the model# and I've never found any newer skullcandy that could even compete with my old pair (which has stood the test of time). I'm constantly trying new earbuds, including wireless, but I'm starting to think you can't get super loud and pounding base unless wired.These earbuds were a bit strange to figure out how to put them in my ear at 1st but once I had them in properly man they are loud and bass is pounding. The sound for movies and music isn't the highest quality (when put on max volume there is a little bit of distortion) but it's very good and I really like loud (especially when on a plane with screaming babies nearby). I want to block out everything and listen to my heavy bass music (primarily EDM, EDM hardstyles, and symphonic metal). When traveling I also use my laptop to watch movies on plex which have outstanding lossless soundtracks. Most earbuds (especially wireless) just don't do it justice, but after a few demo's with these I'm totally sold. Going to get a couple of backup pairs.The construction seems to be very good and will hopefully rival my 20yr old skull candy's. The carrying case is really nice and I found both the medium and large size worked very well in my ears, I think large was a tad better
