Super convenient design and very good sound

Strengths: Very light-weight; no need for batteries; easy to control the nano while wearing the headphones; reasonably comfortable even when wearing for hours

Weakness: The sound is not like $200 Bose headphones but definitely good enough for me!

Wow, what a dream come true! I jumped when I saw the chance to not need wires as I listened to my beloved Nano. I use these headphones when working around the house, walking the dogs, mowing the lawn, and so on. They are very light and comfortable enough to wear for hours without feeling like a clamp.

The Nano slides right in the slot over the left ear and is easy to control while wearing the headphones. Thanks to the clickwheel design I can pause/resume, skip tracks, and adjust the volume without taking off the headphones. The Nano powers the headphones (and the battery life remains very long in my casual use).

I use my headphones so often that I am now ordering a second set to save for that sad day when something happens to mine. For such a great price for the great quality and convenience of no wires to get caught up in life, it is definitely worth trying out a pair (or two!).

A fancy gadget for your iPod

Strengths: Design. Price.

Weakness: Sound quality is just so so.

I bought this headphones just because its price is good and the design is wonderful. It does work as advertised. My 1st generation iPod Nano works fine without any problems. The sound quality isn't very great, but for the price I thought it's acceptable. Recommend to people who likes gadgets.

I like the design and the sound

Strengths: Very light, folds compactly for travel, requires no batteries or cord

Weakness: Would look slightly odd with a white nano

I got one as they were marked down with the release of the 2nd gen nano (there is a new mTUNE for that). I have a black nano and this headphone design and idea were appealing. It is intuitive to use. Just use the nano controls directly as it rests on your head.

Sound quality is very good for lightweight headphones. They are comfortable to wear and I experienced no ear fatigue from long term listening. I am using it mostly when seated on airline flights and travel, since it folds up easily and compactly. It does exactly what I want, as over the ear phones mask ambient noise well. Just take care when inserting the nano into the phones, else micro scratches could accumulate over time, which are more noticeable on a black nano shell.

I definitely recommend it.
