Goodbye iPod Headphones!

We all know that the headphones that come with any iPod are not the greatest in the world. In fact, they are far from it; They are uncomfortable, don’t have such great sound, and are not such a high quality build. On this episode of TechKnowledgey I talk a little bit about new headphones, and their iPod counterpart.

I used to use them everyday on my hour long ride in to school, but they really hurt my ears! They were immensely uncomfortable to use for along period of time. I was fed up with the pain of using these headphones every day on my ride to school so I went out and bought myself a pair of Marshmallow headphones from JVC.

I really like them, and I am glad I made the purchase. They have great audio, and songs and podcasts sound much better than they did with the iPod headphones. The best part is though, that they are incredibly comfortable! The memory foam earbuds fit perfectly in any ear, and I would have no problem wearing them all day, to be quite honest. They really don’t bother me at all, which is a first for me and headphones. Plus, they are only about 15 bucks!

The only downside to them is the fact that they do not have an in-line remote and mic like the iPod headphones did, but that is a sacrifice I would easily make for all the benefits of these great headphones. If you’re in the market for a new pair of headphones, or want to upgrade your current iPod headphones, I highly recommend these as an excellent option.
