Panasonic RP-HZ47-S Silver Ear-Clip Headphones 9.9mm Ultra Slim RPHZ47 /G

These are excellent earphones, very portable, with very good sound and are a good secure fit. I've had a set for a number of years now and I love them. I do have normal bluetooth head phones but I cant wear them for long periods because I have sensitive skin and they heat up the area around my ear and irritate my skin.The Panasonic are so easy to use, they are very light in weight and they fold onto your ear, they fold up well and go in any pocket. I bought two sets to replace my original set but then was able to find replacement foam pads for my original set so they are back in use and still sound brilliant!

I only received these yesterday. I wore them on my 1 hour walk today and forgot about them once they were on.The sound is acceptable, you can't expect amazing for this price point and type.I am trying to get away from in ear earbuds. We do have a pair of genuine bone conducation headphones which work well but you can't wear them with winter hats and coats, they won't stay in place.I did find the over ear hook slightly fiddly to put into place, not sure why, but I'm sure I'll soon get used to it.Despite the over ear hooks, these weren't affected by my hat or collar and I also managed to put my sunglasses on when the sun was low and in my eyes.They are standard audio out jack so I have to use a usb adapter, but there is nothing like this with a usb fitting.

Summary: Do not purchase if you are looking for an everyday usage pair of headphones. There are better alternatives. Compact, portable, short-ish wire length, comfortable, major issues with noise cancellation and leakage. One size only, the ear hook length cannot be adjusted, which may cause issues with smaller/larger ear lobes. For me, I enjoy it, worth the price.I've had these headphones for slightly around two weeks, and I personally love them! I bought these originally as I was a fan of a certain series and these earphones were similar to the ones the protagonist wore and were a much cheaper alternative. I didn't expect to use them this much. The earphones came as advertised and look identical to the pictures used. I enjoy the small, compact design, and the metallic casing makes it look very sleek and stylish. Good portability. They do not cover the whole ear, but just enough to fit snugly where my ear canals are. The padding does not irritate my ears and the plastic loops hook onto my ears comfortably. A big issue with these headphones is the noise bleeding, there is zero noise cancellation, and if you are in a quiet location people will most likely be able to hear what you are playing. I do enjoy this, I prefer to be able to hear my surroundings.Addressing a few common complaints I've seen: The wires are uneven in length, however, this is an integral part of the design for these headphones. The longer wire was designed to be hung behind the neck, so the headphones do not dangle freely when one side is taken off. Another is that the length of the ire is too short. I do find this to be the case, I would not advise you to purchase these headphones if the distance between your ears and pockets is far. As for the issue of short lifespan, I have yet to experience this issue. The design is not very modern, and I will not be surprised if the product breaks after a short time.

I can't stand the ear buds but these are better in my personal opinion. They are comfortable to fit around you ears and because of the right wire is longer, you can just wrap it around the back of your neck so you don't have to worry about the right hand ear hook falling off and get tangled.

I don't like ear buds, and my favourite model of clip-ons were discontinued which sent me on a hunt for new headphones. I've tried a few different cheaper clip headphones, and these are probably the best I've gotten. They're really comfortable, so much so that I have worn them while cramming during revision week for essentially 12hrs straight and not once did my ears start to ache (which is a rare thing). They're also really slim/flat, which means I've been able to sleep in them quite comfortably, too (e.g. while on a very, very long plane ride). And this is all while wearing glasses, too.Quality wise, they're pretty good, especially for how cheap they are. They're not noise-blocking, but they're good enough that I can hear my music well enough while still being able to keep an ear out for things going on around me. I listen to a pretty wide variety of genres, from swing to rock to EDM, and they've all sounded good enough.I've had them for almost 6 months, and only just now did the right one cut out. Although they probably would have lasted much longer if I didn't have my music player in my pocket while biking (which is usually what ends up killing my headphones at the plug).Like others have said, the cord IS quite long, but I never thought that it was too troublesome - I've just wrapped it around my iPod to get it out of the way.I'm ordering another pair right now. Definitely more than worth the price!
