Yurbuds(CE) Focus 100 in-Ear Headphones

I've had a long-time issue with ear phones fitting my ears. I think my ears must be oddly shaped and very non-symmetrical, since with some earphones one side stays in better than the other. Because of this I've always bought earphones that has the hook that wraps over the ear. With the previous earphones I've tried (namely a Sony one that was roughly $12 if I remember correctly) wobble around, leaving space between my ear and the earphone, so I'm not getting very good sound. And they do this even when I'm not doing anything particularly active, like walking around, or doing dishes, bending over to pick something up. Most movements would cause the earphones to move on my ear, so even though they were secure than just an earbud (without the hook), they still weren't great.Now, the Yurbuds Focus are the best that I have found for me. When I first got them, I put them on and shook my head a round a lot, headbanging like I was at a metal concert, and they didn't come off. I was really impressed! I have had these for several months now, and haven't had a problem with them falling out. I haven't really given them a try for working out, since I was just looking for any earphone to stay in my ears, but I'm sure they would pass the test. Because they fit so securely, I think the sound is great. I wouldn't consider myself on audiophile, so maybe my standards aren't very high for good sound, but to me the sound is clear and has a good bass presence. Probably not on the level of Bose or maybe more expensive Sony earphones, but works great for me.Now for some drawbacks. Other reviewers have reported some pain or discomfort with wearing these for a prolonged period. I have found this to be true as well. The earphones kind of grip your ears with the twist-lock function, and, depending on the size of your ears, the hooks may irritate behind your ears. I'm not sure if my ears have gotten used it, but I've found this bothered me less with time. I also think that I am just accepting this aspect of the earphones because they fit my ears best, so I'm more than willing to deal with a little discomfort. Another drawback is that the hook portion is not fixed to the earphone, so it can come off. I'm not sure what the purpose of this design is for. Maybe for adjustments? Maybe if it gets snagged on something it comes off so it won't pull your ear? I'm not sure, but they can come off relatively easily, so be aware of this when you're taking them off and putting them away. This has not been an issue for me when wearing them, only when I'm taking them off or moving them around when they are not on my ears.A tip I found for getting them in more securely is to pull upwards on the top portion of my ear when inserting and "twist-locking" the earphone. I believe this opens up the ear canal a bit more, so the earphone can settle into a better position.So overall, a couple small problems, but nothing too troublesome for me. I am really satisfied with my purchase and happy that I have earphones that actually stay in my ears. Everyone's ears are shaped differently, so it's hard to recommend this product for everyone since it may not be for everyone, but I do think it's at least worth a try if you're like me and has a history of earphones (even ones with hooks) falling out.

I have been using Yurbuds for years now, and absolutely love them. The design is perfect for my ear, and the sound is lightyears beyond any other earbud I have ever tried. I HIGHLY recommend this brand if you want quality sound with quality product.That being said, I bought THIS pair to take with me to the gym. I wanted something that was not going to fall out regardless of what I did. However, when I opened the shipping box, I realized I had made a grievous error. These Yurbuds were "For Women"... NOWHERE in the Amazon description did it say "Women". Needless to say, they will not fit my giant ears. Additionally - and I'm unsure whether this is a product design flaw or something I'm doing wrong - the over-ear hooks kept slipping off the ear buds. There is a plastic post on the "top" of the buds that fit up into the ear-hooks. At first I thought this was a clever idea. I thought "Oh, in case you didn't want to use the hooks, you could take them off... nice." Then I realized they wouldn't stay together. This could be because I'm trying to wrap these tiny little things around my enormous head-wings (thanks a lot Dad!) but just a little wiggle of the bud cause them to slip apart.Like I said, this could be user error, because when I realized they wouldn't fit, I tossed them back in the box and haven't touched them since.Regardless, I will be sending these back as soon as I am able. I have already searched and ordered a pair of Yurbuds that match my old pair... Hopefully I'll have better luck with those.So, sadly, I have to give this three stars because of the lack of description and additional product images. Perhaps, in the future, the seller could title the product with the complete name and description from the box?"Focus 100 For Women Sport Earphones"

These are decent headphones although they do run small. They are definitely for someone with smaller ears. They also take some getting use to and can be uncomfortable until then.

I love these headphones and they are pretty much the only kind I buy since I found them. The earpiece tends to fall off the earbuds if you carry them around or take them off your ears (but they stay on and in place if you keep them on your ears) so you have to be wary of that, but I have three pairs so I have backup earpieces. They do wear out after a bit and the sound messes up but I use them a lot and have had a lot of different headphones in the past, and they last longer than most.

Got these earbuds for runnning. The ear hook looked good because I thought it would keep the earbuds in place. In reality, they are just a nuisance and are extremely uncomfortable. The good news is that you can take them off, and the earbuds become much more comfortable. Throughout all of my running and workouts, I have never had them fall out even once, as the twist and lock system keeps them in place. Recommended buying and tossing out the ear hooks.

i actually have a pair already, and for whatever reason, these dont fit quite as well as the ones I bought off the shelf at wal mart. might be slight differences, who knows. still pretty good sound, decent bass, and depending on your ears, can be pretty good at staying put. i got these for jogging and working out at the gym, work while riding on the forklift. for the money, they are a good alternative to the high priced ones.

I got these for my wife, who has small ear holes. She wore them for five months and had no problems with sound. The over-ear pieces came off the first day, though, and were lost. They do fit really well in the ear. Sound was thin, but that's to be expected from a product in this price range. After five months, the covers got a little loose and then she could pull the ear bud out and the cover would stay in her ear. That's fine, except then she lost the covers in the middle of the street and now can't use these ear buds because the other covers are the wrong size. Still, other earbuds just fall right out of her ears, so I will probably buy these ones again.

The headphones stay in my ears perfectly and have great sound. These are the second pair that I have purchased and I was pleased to discover that they still come with two sizes of ear buds to choose from. They have only got better as they have been improved (the first pair I purchased lasted many years but eventually came to the end of their life!)
