Pretty powerful bass
Stable and comfortable fit for most ears
Durable and improved ergonomics for inline controller
Great sound for the price. Surprisingly strong bass considering it's not an in-canal design. Inexpensive. Includes small carrying case.

Better initial build quality
Better sound
Relatively inexpensive when purchased separately
The editors didn't like
Hot and brittle treble
Midrange sucked out
Still uncomfortable for long-term use
Some people may find that the EarPods don't fit securely in their ears
And these earbuds also let in a lot of sound and leak a little sound
Too
Doesn't block ambient noise
Cords get easily tangled
Design still doesn't fit everyone. Doesn't block out any external noise and some sound leaks out
Secure and comfortable fit, Solid bass, Improved overall sound
Sound leakage, Fit still far from perfect

No noise isolation, Muddy performance, Awful price

Weighty, solid sound, No hint of harshness, even at volume, Clear, direct midrange,
Bass is heavy handed and undefined, Dynamically lacking, Overly smooth sound that lacks real insight, Fit is still hit and miss,
It's safe to say that Apple's Lightning EarPods still won't appeal to audiophiles. They're overly smooth, lacking the detail, definition and dynamics to really do good quality recordings justice.Despite these grumbles, many will still find them fit for pu...
Comfortable fit, Spacious sound, Good amount of bass
Midrange a little harsh, Could do with more precision and clarity
Casual listeners are likely to be very happy with the ones that come bundled with the iPhone 5 and the latest iPod Touch . When it's time to upgrade, however, better sound can be had for a little more money. VIDEO: Samsung Galaxy S4 vs HTC One vs Apple ...

While the review ended with a bit of criticism, the fact remains that the sound quality of the EarPods is definitely good enough for bundled headphones. For this price segment the quality is pretty unique actually. Only Sony includes superior quality ea...
