Pros: Metal coating on the actual buds for durability $35 on Newegg. Pro or con, but very decent pair of earphones for under $50 11mm driver for stronger output and durability Really strong and full, but modest bass Sharp midtones Gold-plated jack as opposed to the regular metal on the cheaper As with all of Skullcandies, lifetime warranty.

Cons: Not a right-angle jack. A lot of people don’t care, but rt angle jacks are usually a lot stronger and take less pressure. So the jack doesn’t fray or bend as much. Leaves something to be deserved in highs and lows. I don’t think it stands as much as rival Sennheiser CX200 which is $25 on Newegg. But that one doesn’t have a warranty :) You get used to the quality of sound after some time. But I’ve only had these for 45 minutes, so I don’t think they’ve broken in yet haha. Warranties usually take a week…so I’d suggest buying a pair of cheap replacement earphones. But these should last awhile at a time.

Overall Review: No static electricity as earlier reviews noted lol. A little bit heavy, but you don't feel it until you really notice.
