Earskinz Review


 EarSkinz


Shown Here In Blue, The Earskinz Provide A Better Listening Experience With The Apple Earpods

     As you may know, I absolutely love the Apple Earpods. I use them as my default earbuds for doing pretty much anything. I even prefer them to the Beats By Dre Solo Headphones. While I think that they are great, there have always been two issues. When worn for long periods of time, the Earpods can get incredibly uncomfortable to wear. The second issue is that while doing any activity where your head moves, they will fall out of your ears. I was always looking for a solution to this issue. That’s why I was thrilled when Earskinz sent me a pair of Earskinz For Earpods to review.

Apple EarPods Review


The Apple Earpods

     In the iPhone 5 event, Tim Cook talked about how Apple has become a company that has a user model based off of media consumption. He said that with any thing in iTunes, you need sound. That was the premise for re-designing the stock Apple eardbuds. He claimed that these Earpods would change the way you use and interact with any iTunes multimedia. 
     I, like many people, were very skeptical. The people that made the original Apple earbuds are telling me that these are great! I was wary of Apple proclaiming them as awesome just because they looked all futuristic. When the iPhone 5 came into stores, these Earpods came with it, the iPod Touch, And The New Ipod Nano. They were also available for purchase alone. I had no interest in buying any of the new products at that point, but I wanted to get my hands on these new buds  pods. I went down to the SouthPark Apple Store and purchased them for $30. I have been actively using them as my headphones for about a month now. This is how I think that they break down.
