The Phaiser is a little bulky because the wire is sturdy, and discomfort starts at hour 3 when using them continuously.

I don't care for the hard wire, it's not as comfortable as the the pliable wires on my previous earbuds.

No wires, easy to use, great sound quality and most of all the customer service is superb

The flexible Memory-Wire on the BHS-530 is fine, but less flexible than the same part on the Backbeat Fit

They are comfortable in my ears - the rubber tips were easy to switch out to the smaller size - and the flexible wire between left and right buds is better than the rigid wire in other

I got them because we've been hitting the gym and working out with ear phones that have wires is very annoying to me

There are no frail wires to snap and fail.

Don't have all the loose wires hanging down -- and it sounds great!

Searched high and low for durable headphones because I have a tendency to break my wires within weeks of use

I really wish this memorywire style were more popular - I've had many pairs without the stiff wire and they would all eventually fall out of my ears - whereas I've never had these headphones come loose, and I love the secure feeling.

After some time, the plastic covering the wires inside began to unravel but they still work.

The wire that goes behind the head is stiff and long

The wire that wraps around is very stiff, causing the ear pieces to fall out

I also like the flexible tubing instead of wire which is more conducive to they gym and moving around with them

To address prior reviews regarding frayed wire ends/ bad charging etc

The stiffness of the design was a pleasant surprise as there was no fussy wires to adjust or get in the

She did complain about one of the ear buds not staying in her ear the first time she wore them, but after letting them sit out of the case for a day the wire that goes around the head was not so stiff and there were no problems with the ear buds staying in after that

The wrap around style and over the ear hooks not only eliminate annoying wires that would flop around every step you take, but also provide exceptional battery life

Always breaking or ripping out wires

The wiring can be a little aggravating at first.

This short thick wire is so uncomfortable had to but a new pair

no wires hanging down or annoying neck bands

I like the product, its very comfortable for long periods of time, the only complaint is when using it to talk on the phone
