I have relatively small ear canals, so I need to use the smallest silicone caps and most earbuds tend to fall out after a few minutes. These Amazon Basics buds fit very well and don't fall out, even using the medium-sized caps that come pre-fitted. Part of the good fit might be due to the shape of the driver portion of the earbud which fits snugly in the ear. While the sound may not be audiophile quality, it's good enough for my purposes - watching movies on long-haul flights, and listening to streaming audio on my phone. I can't speak to the mic or audio controls as I don't use these features.

Great for the cost

Honestly, when I bought these I wasn't expecting much. I just needed a pair for a brief period of time while I worked on getting a genuine headset. But I've had these things for about a year now and I'm happy (and mostly surprised) to say that they still work.
I'm no audio connoisseur or anything- but based on my knowledge of having had a great many wired earbuds over the span of my life, I can say that these are actually pretty decent. The sound quality is good and has remained such. The microphone quality is not the greatest but you'll definitely be audible (and it has also continued to work). And most important of all in my opinion; the earbud jack, and the part of the cable that connects to the earbud/mic itself, has remained strong and intact.
Which, if you've ever had earbuds, chances are you know the feeling of having to practically crack the DaVinci Code moving the wire every time you want to get audio in both ears.
But with these, I've never had that problem in the entirety of owning them.

So TDLR: if you're looking for pretty cheap headphones, want them to last a long time, and don't really care about audio quality either way; these are a great pair to purchase.

But also a bit of a heads-up; the wire itself is a bit flimsy, so do be careful with it. Otherwise you should be good!

EDIT: Just my luck, a few weeks after I wrote this review, the headphones finally gave out. Left side only works if I hold the wire at a very specific angle, and right side gave out completely. Overall though, they lasted a little over a year total (with my heavy use and terrible treatment of the things), so really still worth getting if you need a decent pair of earbuds for a low cost.

Sound is surprisingly rich. Bass is actually invited to the show. Top end isn't tinny. They isolate well enough. Cord is plenty long. They fit fine and come with a different size eartips.

Packaging can't get any cheaper but you aren't shopping for a gift box. If you need a set of cheap earbuds for something these are it.

Decent Sound Quality, but Durability Concerns

⭐⭐⭐

I recently purchased the Amazon Basics in-ear wired headphones, and while they offer decent sound quality for the price, I have some concerns about their durability.

On the positive side, the sound is clear and crisp, making them suitable for casual listening on the go. The in-ear design provides a comfortable fit, and the included ear tips ensure a customizable fit for different ear sizes.

However, I've noticed that the build quality feels a bit flimsy, especially the wiring near the connector. After a few weeks of use, I started experiencing occasional connectivity issues, which is disappointing.

Overall, these headphones are okay for the price, but I'm not sure how long they'll last with regular use.

I don't want Bluetooth headphones, which can get lost, and my devices still have a jack, so I got these as a reasonably priced product. They work great and have great sound. They are not specifically "running" headphones, but they do stay in while running. I liked them so much I got a back up pair. Great product and I recommend.

So....I.bought these and they did not work with phone. So, just wanted to say make sure you check your phone before hitting that buy button...lol!
I tried to return it but I was told to keep it & I was refunded my money, so thankful my mistake didn't put me out the money. They weren't very expensive so I guess it wasn't worth returning.
My husband did get me another pair that work with my phone. I'm just old school I like my earphones in ears with the cord attached to my phone, I'm not really into the wireless/ cordless ones like my husband.
Anyways this is such a long review for something I bought by mistak & didn't use...lol! Thanks for reading my review. I hope you don't make the same mistake I did...lol!

I buy these often because my dog gets ahold of them and destroy them in a second. I am forgetful and leave myself open to allow my dog to find them. They work well until crunch time. What can I say? They sound relatively good for watching YT videos where the sound source is not always reliably good. They're adequate for my needs at a low price.
