Side by Side Comparison of: iXCC vs eCandy vs Arteck

Perfect for Gym

I am a small woman (105 lb.) and have a very small arm. With a little bit of practice, as I've never worn one of these before, I figured out how this thing works. I know, its easy to put on...I just had to play around with it to figure out how to make the Velcro fastener work. I can make it fit snuggly enough to stay up on my small bicep.

Bought this armband because I've recently got back into running. This armband is great! What I love the most about it is its color (of course) and the fact I can out my IPhone with the case still on in it! That is a HUGE convenience! This armband is also great because there is a little slot to put your key in while running. The last thing that I like is that the armband doesn't slip down while I'm running.

The customer support associated with this product is outstanding! By accident, I ordered the wrong size of armband for my iPhone 6S. However, Eric from iXCC made an exchange for the correct armband as simple and effortless as possible. The product is high-quality and works great during my exercise sessions. I definitely recommend this product!

This sports case is the best one I've purchased to date. I was pleasantly surprised that I could fit my iPhone 6 Plus with Otterbox case in it without having to take the case off first. That a huge pro!! The quality of this case is also very nice. It's a stretchable material but with not to much stretch that it would become lose when working out with. It doesn't make my arm super sweating because of the lightness of the material and I can function my phone like normal even with the protective plastic over the phone screen. I would definitely reccomend this sports band to my friend and family. I was given a discount for this armband case to provide my honest and unbiased review. I take my reviews very seriously and have thoroughly tested this product on myself to come up with my review conclusions. If you liked this review and felt it was helpful then please click the thumbs up below. Thanks.

I bought it for my Iphone 5 and it was a bit too big which I didn't mind because I knew the product detail said it could be used for an Iphone 6. My brother has an Iphone 6 and he persuaded me to give him it because his phone fits perfectly inside the armband. He took it in the gym everyday so far and he said it works perfectly as he can still open apps and answer calls while the phone is inside the armband.

Ok, for the buyer of these headphone, price is the primary factor than the sound quality. For less than $20 you are getting a 'Bluetooth headphone' which got very very good sound output! I've these Sony MDREX58V/BLK EX Series Earbud Headphones. Let me tell you, I prefer this bluetooth headphones over those Sony headphones!!! They got excellent fit for the angled earbuds, excellent punchy bass & very balanced sound nothing is too much (Bass or treble). Very good, full & clear sound. Power button is little bit mushy, volume buttons are clicky. They connected with my Note 4 with no problem.*When I searched after turning them on (press & hold on power button, keep pressing for 3-4 sec. to make it discover-able by phone), they appeared as 'G6' on my bluetooth device list.*After connecting, if you press the power button, music will start from you default player.*During music playback, single press on power button = play/pause, press & hold volume up button = previous track, press & hold volume down button = next track. (I will let you know as "Previous Song", "The Next Song").*Every action is dictated by the headphones (Ex. "Power on", "Power off", after power on & bluetooth connection, it will let you know "Bluetooth connected").*On my Note 4, during power position, if you double press power button quickly, it will dial last dialed phone number.*I couldn't able to trigger 'Google Now' from headphone.*They have very high volume. Headphone volume control is separated from. So, when you are controlling volume from headphones, it will not change volume of the phone. Which is a very good feature.*During an incoming call, it will tell you the phone number like this: "Call from 8-0-0-1-2-3-2-4-5-5". A bit annoying. But, can't complain for $18.*CON: So, microphone is in top of the right earpiece & caller will not hear you unless you unplug right earpiece & put the mic next to you mouth.Conclusion: These are very very good headphones. When I bought them, I was little bit hesitant for the rating it got. DO NOT hesitate to buy these, they are very good headphones. I would recommend to my friends & family without any hesitation. Thanks.

Wonderful set. Fitment, sound, and use is strong.The unit comes w/ 2 sets of ear cushions and the stabilizer rings in clear and black...yes two sets of each. I typically have issues finding headphones that not only fit well, don't hurt, and stay in....these are everything. I can run and talk and chew w/ these things!The battery life is nice. I got almost a 8 hours of straight listening to music!! The standby time is as you'd expect.The color is great...since I love orange! The fitment is nice as noted, but I personally would like a smaller form factor for the body of the headphone that sits outside the ear. This way I could use them while helmeted for motorcycle rides.What's awkward is the positioning of the buttons. They are on the right ear piece. With the shape of the ear piece, the buttons take some getting used to in order to use the multi-function buttons. They are primarily the volume rockers but press together and the unit will for back and forth from foreign to English language. The face of the ear piece has another multi function button to turn on/off, start/stop music, & answer/end calls. These buttons work flawlessly for me.The microphone is on the left ear piece and I found myself having to speak much louder than I am comfortable with. The other side does report typical bluetooth woes of sounding far away or echo'y or as if on speaker. I primarily purchased these to listen to music and that it does well.The range of the bluetooth is a bit lacking. Typical range should be 10meters, and in line of sight my set of ECandy Headphones does not get past 10 feet. This could quite possibly be just my experience as others may vary.The charge port is typical microusb which I love. The package comes w/ a short cord for charging from a full size usb port which is great. And so far all of my other USB cords were successful at charging this device!I've dropped these a few times and a couple direct hits to the ground. As small and lightweight as it is no damage would be expected...but for as little as I paid, I was prepared for a disaster. No problems, no damage!!I do love these headphones! Despite a few flaws (can ANY be perfect), they are simply easily forgivable and this is a no brainer purchase. Enjoy!Please note I did get this at a discount/free in exchange for my unbiased review.These eCandy headsets continue to be my go to. I have a few sets of them for backup and always perform. The security in having multiple backup earbuds as well is an added bonus. I would put a bit of glue on the buds you like however...just to keep them in place. something not too harsh and removable with some effort. The buds do come off in your pocket

This is the first earbud set of headphones I have. It's been a few months and they are still holding up. I have to charge it every night as it does run out of battery quickly between uses. It was easy to set up with my phone as most blue tooth devices are. I have used these for casual walks and exercising. It does isolate noise well, even while walking through the city but is not 100% noise cancellation. I have a little problem with them while exercising because the strand that connects them does not stay in place. It drags across my neck and pulls from one ear to the other and I feel that I have to constantly adjust them. It does not stay in place for long if you are running or being really active. If you are lifting, these stay in fine. ALSO.. if you press and hold both the (-) and (+) for volume control, it does change the language set-up to chinese. To reverse this, you simply press and hold both volume controls again.**UpdateTheir customer service is top notch, they contacted me with regards to my issues with their product and offered to replace or give me refund. They were very helpful and quick with their service. I would order from them again based on my positive customer experience

*UPDATE - these are an outstanding buy.* Received my headphones yesterday and so far I am pretty impressed with them. They sound good for the price. I havent had any connection problems.I do however have a couple complaints. The build quality doesn't seem to be the best but these are sub $20 headphones so that is to be expected. The multifunction button doesn't make a solid click when you press it so sometimes its hard to know if you actually pressed it in all the way and because of this it kinda hurts if you try to press it while wearing the ear buds. Also they can get slightly unconformable after wearing then for an hour or so but in my experience that applies to most ear buds. Could just be a matter of adjusting their position a little better in my ear. With my complaints in mind overall I think these are a solid buy and a good value for the money and I would highly recommend them. I don't expect them to last a really long time because of the build quality but again these are under $20 so if they lasted six months without issue I would be more than satisfied with them. Pick up a pair and try them for yourself.UPDATE - in an unfortunate event my girlfriend did not sheck the pocket of my shorts before washing my clothes.I did not realize until the full cycle of the washer had ran out and my ear buds were soaked.I put them in a bag of rice for a couple days and the plugged them into the charger. To my surprise even after being in the washer for over an hour they still work flawlessly

I bought these ear buds to replace a corded ear bud set. At the gym, the cord would snag on the exercise equipment and pull out of my ears. I purchased these particular ear buds based mostly on the good reviews and the price. Most of the other ear buds cost $10 or higher. I have been using them for over two weeks and I find that I like using them. The sound is excellent with a good mix of bass and highs and have plenty of volume. They are light weight and comfortable in my ear. They stay in place but need occasional repositioning as I work out (the Iphone ear buds will not stay in my ear and are constantly falling out). I'm using these buds with an Iphone 5c and they connected easily to the Iphone Bluetooth--I had no trouble pairing them to the Iphone. A fully charged battery lasts just over three hours. They charge using any USB charger. Of course, these ear buds also work with making and receiving calls. There is a microphone on the left ear bud and two buttons on the right unit. The buttons control volume and operation. To the best of my knowledge, these are not noise cancelling ear buds--they will reduce surrounding noise as most ear buds will. I would recommend these to a friend.

Actually, the quality is very good for the price. If you have the iPhone 6 HD Call feature and add this Bluetooth, it sounds really great. I also love how quickly it connects to my phone at the press of the button. Better or equal to my previous jawbone or Motorola bt in ears.

Good product but not much strap material for my arms

It's a great armband for the price I haven't worked out with it yet, but I hope it's durable. The plastic shield covering the face of the phone doesn't stop the phones touch sensitivity. I was able to dial numbers easily. It fit my Iphone 6 plus with the protective case very easily and there was even some room left. It also fit my daughters Iphone 6s with its otterbox commuter case on without any problem. I gave it 4 stars because it seems a bit flimsy.

The only thing I do not like about the product is the clear cover is thick and somewhat difficult to press the buttons on my phone. Other than that it is great! Would recommend it.

Nice quality and fit

I bought this armband so that I could put my iPhone 6 with its cover on into it without having to take the cover off my phone as its one of those covers that are hard to get off. It fits pretty well and I like how there are openings for the charger and headphones both on the top and the bottom to accommodate a wide range of smartphones. My one gripe though might be that the key holder (which I use for my lip balm) is only on one side. Since I am a leftie and like to wear my armband ony left arm when I'm at the gym so I have to reach around to get to my lip balm but other than that I love it!

I actually don't have an iPhone (or even a Samsung). I know, shocking right? I actually bought this for my LG Volt which does not have it's own custom armband holsters. I chose the one for the iPhone 6 plus because I compared the size specs for each phone, and the two models seemed closest in size. This holster actually is much roomier than necessary. It easily holds my LG Volt with case. At first I thought it'd be hard to get in due to the smaller slit on top, but the material is stretchy enough to accommodate my phone easily. The holes on top are basic cutouts, and they are over the headphone jack on my phone so that's also a plus. The screen material is great for the touch screen, and so far I haven't been disappointed in it.Now to the knitty gritty.*The thing is huge. I feel like I've got a bright blue shield on my arm, and it can be awkward at times.*The armband itself accommodates my chubby upper arm, however it is on the bigger setting so who knows if I will eventually outgrow this thing when my arms become more toned.***I feel like I need to cinch it down super tight in order for it to stay on. It slides down which causes my arm to tense - expecting my blue shield to become a bracelet, but once it settles slightly lower than I cinch it down it doesn't seem to go much farther. I will update if that changes. This uncomfortable mental battle of "will that thing will stay on or not?" is why I docked the product a star.*I love the blue color - not to garish - not to childish.*The "reflective material" doesn't seem reflective to me. It's a gray strip, and I don't see anything else special about it.*There are no cutouts or anything for the side volume buttons I know where they are, and if I push on it enough the volume will change appropriately so I see no fault on that.*The material is soft, stretchy, and makes me think of the material they use for wetsuits.As a note when I purchased the item the picture was the blue color I wanted, but the product description said [Pink]. The picture was correct so fortunately I got the item I wanted.

Updating this review on 3/9/2016:I did not expect any type of customer service from them at all but I will update my rating to 4 stars as ECandy is trying to do right. Once I receive the replacement set and test it out I'll make one last and final review.==============================Original Review:I really like this style headset, that when my first pair (left side ear piece) broke when it snagged on my bag when trying to take out I ordered the same one. However this time around I was not lucky enough to get a good working pair. The headset turns on/off and pairs with no problems, but the right side ear piece has no sound at all. At first I thought that the wiring must of been mixed up to where the left side was the one that has sound to pair/connect and hear the turn on/off sound. But when I tried to play music only the left side ear piece work (with some static here and there) and there was no sound coming out of the right side at all. I am returning this headset as it does me no good since the new one (left side only works) and since my old one still works on the right side only, I might as well continue to use it with one ear.

Awkward fit if you aren't used to in-ear headphones. I wear headphones at work and my work day is 8 hours long so this set wasn't able to keep up for that long. Battery life lasts for about 4 hours of constant music playing. Battery life is a bit shorter as the distance between the earbuds and phone increases.One side stopped playing sound after 3 months of wear and tear while at the gym or work. Volume doesn't reach too high without causing distortion or a metallic echo.This wasn't exactly what I was looking for personally but for the price its reasonable.If you are mindful and aren't rough with these earbuds they should last you. And if you keep your volume to a reasonable range the sound is pretty crisp.

I really would like to give this a five star review but the hold back remains a small product design issue/niggling factor. Don't get me wrong, these are an excellent value. Of all the BT headphones I have (including some very fancy Harman Kardon headsets and LG-70's) I find myself using these most of all. They are comfortable, provide good if not great sound, stay in your ears when active, maintain a solid connection and charge seems to last well beyond most. Not to mention that they are minimally priced when compared to others, so a superb value. This makes them a solid five star product ... except my protest against BT device mfgr's continuing to make one device/connection units. This is yet another one that won't allow multiple connections without resetting the device. Annoying and unnecessary. Really do recommend these if you can live with the limitation of needing a separate BT device for your phone/tablet/Alexa/etc. Fix this and the eCandy is without a doubt the way to go.

I have revised my opinion and wanted to strike the lower rating I previously gave. It was my own fault that the volume was turned down on the devise itself. Once I read more reviews I re-checked and corrected. Now they work great. If anyone makes the same mistake and the volume suddenly seems to not have a proper amount of volume, just check that first! They have a similar amount of playtime on a charge as other bluetooth devices, and sound great to me. For the price you can't beat them!

I really like these earphones. Nice sound, comfortable, conection to my phone was easy and they're simple to use. Bluetooth range is not outstanding but it serves my needs just fine, I can walk around my house and office and still listen depending on the walls between my phone and me. Battery life though... not that much, I have to charge them at least twice a day and its kinda annoying. I've only had them a month and a half, using them everyday and so far so good. I would buy this product again.

Update 12/14: The seller contacted me after seeing my review and requested I remove my review in exchange for a refund. I countered by offering to update my review if they would send me a new product, and that is what they decided to do. Having received the new product, I can say it is exactly what I had expected when I first ordered the device. As a matter of fact, I think they original I was sent was a different, low quality version of this same product. For example, when connecting the original to Bluetooth it said its name was "G6", while the new device is correctly called "E-Candy". The charging port was also different, there was a cheap flap on the first one that covered it which is absent on the new one.The sound is great and the headphones seem sturdy and put together well. Battery life is still short. All in all, if they send the correct product then it is a good one. Just check to be sure and don't be afraid to contact the sellers.Original Review: First, I can't imagine how Amazon and Ecandy determined the pricing for this product. It is certainly not a $60 pair of headphones, and suggesting that we are getting a great deal is disingenuous at best. These headphones are very poorly made and suffer from extremely short battery life. They get a star because they sound fine.I bought these to use in my office. So I am not running or jumping or doing anything crazy. The button responsible for turning the device on/off and toggling play/pause and bluetooth on/off fell off on the second use. I tried reattaching it and it fell off again, and is now lost. So this thing fell apart almost immediately, and now I have to use a pencil to press the button inside to turn it on.I get maybe a couple of hours of music on this thing. I guess that is good if you are using it for brief exercise periods, but you basically have to make sure you always plug it in to charge after use. It is especially cute how it warns you the battery is low and then powers down about 10 seconds later. Thanks for the warning.tl;dr: This is a cheaply made product that will get the job done with caveats. In my opinion it is still priced too high, given the quality. Knowing what I know now I would have sprung for a more expensive higher quality set of headphones rather than dealing with this.

Product worked great for about two weeks and then it started tearing. I like the key pocket, however if you're going to the gym or on a run where you have car keys, they wont fit at all, which is annoying. Decent product, but definitely could be better.

Got good use out of it for about 6 months. Coming apart now (fabric is ripping from velcro) and need to get a new armband. Will not be purchasing it again as I didn't like how the phone controls and screen are not easily accessible.

I give it 3 stars because the 6s + fits, the headphones easily connect to the device, and the touch functions work well through the proctective covers. But, usefulness (for me) warrants fewer (to no) stars. The size of the 6s plus causes me to tighten the strap so tight it almost cuts my circulation off if I want it to stay in place when running. Using it when lifting weights is impossible. If you plan on just walking it will work, but for other activities I suggest something else.

My IPhone 6 with the Mophie case fits well. It did not fit around my arm well. I think it would work better for someone with small arms. I got it around but it slipped down once I started working out. My husband is now using it to hold his phone on his bike and seems to like it.

I bought this to use with a new IPod Touch, but it is way too big. I guess it would be OK for an IPhone. The IPod slides around in it. And there's nothing to keep it from falling out if you turn it upside down. It would be OK for jogging, but I wouldn't use it for working out. The key holder is very small, just big enough for a padlock key and there is nothing to keep the key from falling out.

Positives: pretty color, adjustable armband allows tighter or looser fit. Very easy to get your iPhone in and out. Negatives: Very large around edge, making my iPhone 6 Plus seem even bigger than it already does. Seeing as this goes around my upper arm, the profile of the case makes it look almost as big as an iPad mini! Plastic cover makes it difficult to use your touchscreen while it is in the case. Its also very loose fitting and difficult to get to your power and volume buttons.

In regards to sound for the price it is tough to knock however the battery life is on the lower end. If youre interested in using these headphones for a marathon youll need to be super super fast (as in under 3 hours since thats how long the battery lasts). The fit in/on the ear was okay. I felt as though the bud portion fit in secure but the majority of the headphone did not sit close to my head. So especially while running i could feel them bob. An over the ear hook would certainly fix this problem. The location of the buttons was also tricky. you almost needed two hands to change the volume or any other control. One to hold it and one to physically push the button. Since there is no hook, it really messed with the fit every time i tried to change the volume or change the song. I think these would be a good sounding, budget wireless earbud if it had a longer battery (at least 5 hours) and an over the ear hook to help with securing a position on the ear.

these don't have the high quality sound of slightly higher priced items but they work great for staying put no matter what I'm doing. they don't get caught or pull on my neck worn either on front or back.negative: their signal is very easily blocked. using my phone in my pocket means the sound comes and goes, wrong side of my body it will be blocked completely. about 5ft of signal strength before it goes out. keep my phone close and clear and it works great though

Cons:The bluetooth has some connection issues. I keep phone in pocket, which is less than 3 feet away, and it'll lose/have static. I have a different bluetooth set that I keep phone in pocket or close by and don't have that problem, so it's definitely not the phone.Battery life close to 4 hrs; however, the lower the battery gets the more it drops bluetooth connection. Don't have that problem with other set.Not the most comfortable thing I've put in my ear, either; but not much difference that other set.With it cutting in and out, don't figure it'll last long :-(DO NOT LIKE THE REDIAL LAST NUMBER FEATURE!Pros:Lightweight!Simple enough to charge.Sound is good and has lots of volume -- that and the price of product is the reason for 3 stars; otherwise, I'd have to give it 2 stars.

Like with most items this one has its pros and cons. I'll give the cons first which the biggest was battery life. The battery was just not up to par. I could have the headphones on paired to my phone but not using them and it was nothing for them to lose battery life before the work day was over. The signal strength was also a feature that left something to be desired. I live in an apartment that is maybe 20 feet from kitchen to bedrooms and bathrooms. I could have my phone in the kitchen or the den and would lose my connection if I left out the room to go to my bedroom or bathroom. Those are the only real cons to these headphones. On the Pro side they have EXCELLENT sound quality. I love the way my music sounds when listening through this headset. The headphones are also very easy to use and even feature multiple languages. I had no problem connecting to my phone, tablet, etc. The best feature of all is the price. For what you pay you def get your money's worth and then some. I would recommend getting these if you want a decently priced easy to use Bluetooth headset that you won't use for long stretches of time.

Cons- Replacing the rubber earbud caps that it comes with was a nightmare-The batteries usually only last me 4 hours(Half a work day.)Pros- Not bad to use on a commute when you don't want wires tangling through your clothes/pockets.- They look niceMeh- Sound is average,The previously mentioned earbuds don't fit that great into my ears making it hard to get the best sound. Which led to the nightmarish process of trying to change them out for the other ones it came with. Which seem to be totally against the design of the speaker/driver/whatever that it goes over. They don't almost don't seem to fit without forcing it over. And I'm not sure if this is common for wireless headphones or earbuds, (my first wireless pair) But battery life leaves a lot to be desired if you're someone like me who listens to music all day.But overall it does what you'd expect it to do at an okay sound for it's price, So 3 stars.

- The package came on time and everything was perfectly intact.- The sound on them is OKAY. Not like skull candy-quality, but they're alright!- Every time you change the sound on your phone, it makes a loud "BOOP" noise.- Every time the Bluetooth disconnects, a feminine voice says it's disconnected out of nowhere- It is a very nice feeling to walk around listening to stuff in your ear without carrying your phone, and you can go pretty far without the signal getting messed up- It only gives you about an hour and a half of battery life, so that sucks.Definitely feels more crude, and if quality is super important to you then I'd invest in better earbuds that connect to your phone. But if you want something that costs less and will allow you to walk around freely while listening to music or videos or whatever, then this is a nice buy!

bands stretch out quickly and wear out fast

Used about 5 times only and the side of the arm band started to unravel.

Not a good quality. Started falling apart after 2 months.

After only a week of use, one side of the band is tearing. Very disappointed and I'm already looking into purchasing a different band. Anyone looking into this product, I suggest you look somewhere else. Other than the tear, my iPhone 6 Plus fit well in the sleeve even with the thin shell left on the phone.

Seemed to work just fine for the first few days, by the 4th day the corner of the strap started to break. All of this was from light use and wasn't even from intense cardio sessions.

I returned this item. Even though my phone fit in the case and the band fit snugly around my arm - some don't unless you are a big, burly dude - the entire thing was just so massive on my arm that I felt ridiculous wearing it. I need one for running that doesn;t take up so much real estate on my body.

PRO:* Low cost (got mine on sale for ~$12)* Simple packaging: plain cardboard box, cord tied up with a twisty tie, extra rubber earbud cups in a small baggie.* Printed user manual with decent instructionsCON:* Feels cheap: plugging in the include USB cable to charge and it doesn't seem to fit properly (but does charge) and has a weak plastic feel that makes me wonder how long these will last.* Short Range: I'm a tall guy (6'5"). When I tried pairing these with my phone and putting my phone in my pants pocket; the audio was patchy and kept breaking up. I had to put my phone in my shirt pocket to be able to use these earbuds. Mind you with the same phone and other Bluetooth devices I've been able to leave my phone on a different floor of my house and still have good audio.* Slow processor?: While these played the audio from my podcasts/music fine; when I tried playing a game on my phone the game's audio was lagging behind the action and constantly stuttering.

Pros:Neatly packagedComfortable and held in place wellCons:Headphones would lose connectivity when my phone was placed in my pocket.Audio quality not the greatestNo actual noise cancelling that I could detectThese eCandy headphones arrived promptly and in a very tiny, very neat box. Included in the box were the headphones, micro USB charging cable (just the cable, no wall charger), replacement ear plugs and easy to follow instructions. I had been excited to give these headphones a shot as I was tired of the cable on my old wired headphones always getting in the way while I was working out or doing yard work.The headphones themselves appeared to be of ok quality. If taken care of they would probably hold out but I wouldn’t go dropping them on a hard floor or anything. The included charging cable is extremely short. It measured out to about 7 ½ inches in length. Luckily I already had longer micro USB cable I could use.Once I had charged the headphones I tried them out. They held in place really well and were comfortable. Turning them on and synching with my iPhone was a simple process. However, once synched, I would loose the connection frequently when the phone was placed in my pocket. The headphones worked fine if was holding my phone in front of me, as soon as my phone went into my pocket, the audio would start cutting out. If you plan on using these headphones with your device on your desk or in an armband you might be okay. But they were useless for what I needed them for.Finally, the audio quality, when it did work, was sub par and left a lot to be desired. For lack of better adjectives, it sounded slightly muffled and hollow. Like the speaker had been wrapped in a sock and the sound piped through a toilet paper tube. And sure, it canceled noise as advertised in the sense that you had music being piped through ear plugs. But no, no active noise cancelling could be detected in the environments I tested these headphones in.Normally, I’d say you get what you pay for but even I had slightly higher hopes for what these headphones cost. For me, these headphones are a big and disappointing pass and I’ll be returning them soon.

I think you need to have the right ear design to keep these in. I used them once on a run and by the time I was done I knew these were not for me. The clip would help keep the ear bud in place in my left ear but not my right. I wish they offered different lengths of clips. The sound would break for a second once in awhile, but not too annoying. And like all of my other ear buds they are a bit too tight, even while using the smallest size, so my ears ache after a sorry time, but I just have small ear canals. But the lack of various clip sizes to help these to fit is really sad, and makes them unusable for the purpose I had intended.

I really wanted to like these...the picture shows a pretty bright turquoise color that sparked my interest, but it's deceiving...the actual product is more of a standard primary blue, nothing like the color pictured. Oh well. I have very small ear canals, so I immediately tried to change the in-ear silicone adapters, and wished I hadn't. They are SO hard to get on there! The hole in the nubs are smaller than the part you push them onto, so you have to really struggle to get them to stretch and fit, and being so tiny, that's impossible...as soon as you get one edge on the lip, another falls off. I was afraid I'd rip them. Both my husband and I tried and couldn't get the smaller ones on at all, then still struggled to get the original ones back on but finally did it. They also stick out of your ears a lot further than I had hoped...I wanted to use them for relaxation tracks while falling asleep, but it definitely wouldn't work if I was to lay on my side.I also should note that when I went to charge it up for the first time, I noticed that the left earbud looked crushed/melted, so the button wouldn't even push in. Obviously I got a defective one, so I contacted customer service, who promptly refunded me. Their customer service is fast and efficient, which is a plus. I ultimately decided on a different brand of headphones that are better suited for sleeping in rather than replacing these, however, so I can't comment about the sound quality of these. I simply want to make sure consumers considering these are aware about some of the physical characteristics of this product, as it's sometimes hard to tell sizes and details from photos.

Not a huge fan of these headphone. The sound quality is good and so is the fit, but unlike my previous Bluetooth headphones, these require me to go into my iPhone's Bluetooth settings and reconnect them every time I want use them. Also, the controls are so small that they are difficult to manipulate.I use these earbuds for biking to and from work, so these shortcomings make them less convenient.========================================================================Updating this review on 8/18/2015I purchased the Mpow Cheetah Wireless Bluetooth 4.1 Sports Headphones as a replacement for my unsatisfactory Ecandy headphones.The Mpow headphones were exactly what I was looking for. I had previously purchased the "Ecandy Wireless Bluetooth Headphones Noise Cancelling Headphones" for my bike commute into work. However, I found them not at all suited for athletic endeavors. The controls on the Ecandy headphones were not ergonomic at all. Also, I like to ride with only one earbud in place, so that I can hear surrounding traffic for safety purposes, and because the Ecandy headphones are somewhat "noise cancelling", it was even more important to do so. However, the Ecandy headphones are so heavy that leaving one out of my ear ended up pulling the other one out as well. Lastly, the Ecandy headphones required me to manually re-pair my connection with my iPhone 6 every time I turned them on, which was really annoying.The Mpow Cheetah headphones are much more appropriate for biking. They are lighter, have much better designed controls, so that I can easily touch the right button for the right function. The Mpow headphones also re-pair automatically. I recommend the Mpow Cheetah headphones to anybody looking for sports headphones.

it works great. fits great. stays in place on a light jog. good sound (i mostly do podcasts). on a good charge i'll get five hours out of it.pros; works great for applications where you don't want to get tangled in cords. its light weight and stays in place. you get three bud sizes to switch around. i maybe adjust it once or twice in an hour. if i'm jogging towards the wind it might loosen up (but this might be the same for any brand).cons; battery seems buggy. half the time i don't get a full five hours... 3 or 2 it seems.Update: this died after two months of use. the battery stated heating up and eventually it just stopped charging. it worked well when it worked so could be a bad batch... i guess.

Unfortunately this product did last even one year. I used it often while running and the band tore. Poorly made.

This looks really nice and the price is great for an armband. Problem is that I've had it for just over a month and the band that velcrows around your arm is already ripping. You have to pull it tight so it does not slide down your arm when running and this obviously cannot handle that. Ripped so much that I cannot pull it tight enough anymore to work at all. Spend a couple extra bucks for better quality.

This is definitely not designed for iPhone 6plus - unless you don't care that you can't access your volume. If that's the case, go ahead and buy it. It also doesn't fit the size well. What it is - is a generic armband that this company has decided to label iPhone 6 plus friendly.

I'm only responding to this product because the company contacted me directly and requested that I write a review. This is a product came smelling of chemicals and having black plastic pieces bonded (can not be picked-out) in the clear plastic. There was no QC confirming that the product was actually made correctly. I knew that the price was low at $7.00, but when you get the product out of the box and think, this is worth about $2-3.00, that's a bad sign. an iPhone 6s Plus with a thin case barely squeezes into this and leaves some part of it stuck out. There was no good way to make this feel this stable on my arm. The arm band's two adjustment points gives a little additional room, but it's just completely awkward. If the material of this armband was better, then perhaps it could be made to work, but right now the product is unusable for me.

If you are purchasing this for running you might be okay. If you are purchasing this for weight lifting you're wasting your money. The elastic is very poor quality and has minimal to no stretch to it. I'm an average sized guy and after two times lifting at the gym the strap completely ripped in half.

This whole product is a lie. In the title and whole product list it states this armband is for the iPhone 6 plus. I receive it, the front of book states again iPhone 6 plus. I pull the armband out of the box and it doesn't even come close to fitting a 6 plus. Don't let them fool you if you are trying to get this for a 6 plus.

OK, so I bought a pair of ECandy headphones for around the same price as these. They had great sound, long battery life and were sturdy. I wanted to purchase some new head phones, so I passed those down to my sister, bought the new headphones, couldn't pair with my phone. So I decided since they work and I was desperate I looked ECandy Bluetooth headphones. This popped up, unfortunately I couldn't find the exact same pair, so I settled with these. When they finally came they were well packaged, but when I opened them, and touched them they felt kind of RUBBERY. So I just told myself it was because of the color on the headphones and then I just went to using them everyday like I did with my old ones. Now let me tell you about why I feel these are unauthentic, when I went to pair them for the first time, it popped up as this weird name, it looked like it was in a different language. Another time was when I turned up the music on the headphones, it wouldn't raise the volume. So I just let that go, and dealt with the low volume, when I finally went to charge them, then USED THEM the battery lasted for about 2-3 hours. (first time around they lasted about 6+ hours) And lastly, why I feel these are not AUTHENTIC ECandy headphones, is because of the non existent bass I hear in my music when I do decide to use them. I wrote this review so late after purchasing them, because when I went to charge them, the blue/red lights didn't even turn on. I haven't USED THEM IN TWO WEEKS AND WHEN I FINALLY DECIDE TO... they're suddenly broken.

I've had these for a little over a year. At first they worked great, but then they simply stopped working. just to be clear, I did not abuse or use carelessly. In fact, I bought these as a backup because they fit nicely into my purse. I can probably count the times I've actually had to use them. Nevertheless I needed them recently when I was away on a business trip, and they let me down. I even thought it might be the battery so I charged it over night. They simply don't work anymore. I'm sorry but I don't care how inexpensive they are, they should last more than a year.

I had a pair of wireless earbuds I purchased from TJMaxx, but my issue was they only held a charge for about 45 minutes - which I unfortunately discovered in the middle of a workout. I ordered these because they are supposed to have a longer charge, but the first time I put them in the sound was unbalanced the left ear was much louder than the right. I checked my iPhone volume settings to make sure I didn't accidentally throw it off balance but it was dead center. then when I went to try and even it out, the left earbud got louder when I adjusted it to get quieter and get a little louder on the right. Maybe it was just my pair with a software issue or something, but these suck and I won't use them again. I never had any sound problems wi h my other pair so it's definitely not my hearing that's the problem. unfortunately they were in my ears so I can't return them, such a waste of my money.

Pros: sound quality when connected to phone is decent. But that's itCons:1. I need to talk really loud for the other person to hear me when using the bluetooth2. Have tor restart bluetooth setting and earphones several times sometimes to link up properly3. When calls do get through, it is broken like I'm going through a tunnel even though my phone is right next to me. Very finicky4. The hook that is suppose to secure the earpiece is not sturdy and very flimsy unlike my friend's device (different brand). - this one doesn't feel like it serves any purpose. Too flimsy to stay secured.5. When running with the device, even though it doesn't fall off, you can hear the earphones as if they are going in and out.Overall I did not like it at all and am returning them. Read the glowing reviews and was very excited but was immediately disappointed.

I absolutely loved these headphones until a week ago when they died. I purchased the headphones on 06/16/15, putting me outside the return policy time frame so I am out $20.00. I kept my headphones at my work desk so any sort or wear and tear is not the reason for them to just stop working all of a sudden. My headphone were used during the day from 8 - 5, then put away in a drawer over night. The headphones will not take a charge and I cannot get any of the lights to light up while holding the "ON" button. Very disappointed with this purchase. Would absolutely change my review if given the opportunity to exchange for another pair as I absolutely loved the product for the 3 months I was able to enjoy them.

Just returned from my first, and last, run with these. I had no trouble pairing them with my phone, but while running the sound constantly went in and out. I can't comment on battery life because after fiddling with them trying to eliminate the static, I gave up and put them in my pocket.
