Customer Reviews:
Nice fit, but poor sound quality.......2007-12-24
The lanyard style works well, length of the cords is great, but the sound quality is not nearly as clean and crisp as the default iPhone headphones.
Excellent Quality for the Price.......2007-12-21
These headsets are much more comfortable to wear than the stock iPhone headsets. They fit inside of your ear much better, and they don't fall out of your ears. The lanyard design is excellent. You don't have to worry about the cables getting caught nearly as much as you do with the stock headset. Also, as has been mentioned before, you can take the earbuds out of your ears, and they will hang from the lanyard within easy reach.
Don't listen to people complaining about the length of the cable, or about the location of the microphone. It is not difficult to figure out how to wear this headset properly. When worn properly, the mic is just below your collar bone, easily accessible. And the earbuds are always within easy reach.
As for sound quality, I am no audiophile, but they sound just as good as the Apple headset. Maybe a little better, since the rubber helps to seal your ear canal.
I would love to try out some more expensive headsets, just to see if the audio quality is really that much better. But, I couldn't pass up the price of these Rivets. I lost my originally iPhone headset, and I'll probably lose these at some point. I would much rather replace a $20 headset than a $100 headset.
Do Not Buy.......2007-12-21
I bought these headphones after reading several positive reviews here on Amazon. I heard tale of their revolutionary lanyard design and superior sound quality. I was wooed by the promise of a superior fit and a more comfortable listening experience. I was lulled into a false sense of well being by the built-in track-skip/call-answer button.
I rushed to my office's mail distribution center daily. With baited breath I searched through the newly delivered parcels, hoping upon hope that my name would be among the chosen few destined to receive UPS's good graces. Even after the tracking results page said "lost by carrier" I didn't loose hope. My 3 day shipping turned to 5 but I stood resolute in my belief that one day if I had faith I would finally receive my headphones.
Here I sit, at a bus stop blocks from my house on my Trusty MacBook listening to my old worn-out beat-up original iPhone headphones. My hopes and dreams shattered. My excitement have become my contempt.
I hate you Rivet Stereo Headset (iPhone Compatible) headphones, I hate you so much. I cannot possibly fathom how so many people could write so many positive things about a product that fails to meet even my most basic expectations. I have lost faith in my fellow human beings. First professional wrestling, now this.
Without further pontification allow me to attempt enumerate just the very most upsetting facets of these headphones (if you can call them headphones, I am not sure they qualify).
1. The sound quality is terrible. Anyone that says otherwise doesn't have ears. The treble is flat and the bass response is nonexistent. I'm reminded of trying to make a telephone call on a tennis shoe.
2. The revolutionary lanyard design would be great if my neck was 36 inches around. I lack a neck proportionate to a bullflog and have to fish into the folds of my jacket to retrieve the microphone/track-skip/call-answer pod. I haven't tried making a call yet but I imagine I'd get some pretty interesting looks yelling into my jacket.
3. They stopped working almost immediately. There appears to be an electrical short in the microphone/track-skip/call-answer pod and the left channel cuts out intermittently.
I would return these headphones, but it's not worth my time. I implore you, do not make the same mistake I did. Go spend 100 bux on some real headphones. At least if they suck they'll be worth sending back.
OK for the price.......2007-12-18
I bought this headset for around $10. For that price I must admit that they are decent. I would have felt cheated if I had bought them when they were $30+ though. Bass is very muddy, mids and highs are ok. Noise isolation isn't very good and noise from the lanyard/cord is quite annoying unless sitting very still. Results are a little better when used as a phone headset. Callers don't complain about not being able to hear me, and I hear them well.
These quickly became my secondary headset as I was gifted the V-Moda Vibe Duos recently. They are on the pricy side, but I highly recommend them if you can swing the $100 price tag. I'd have waited to buy them myself if the Rivets hadn't been so cheap. (and if I didn't get them as a gift!)
Iphone Headphones.......2007-12-14
I purchased these headphones for my iPhone mainly because it had the microphone and the answer-call button similar to the Apple headphones. These headphones are comfortable and have good sound for an economical price. I am giving it only 4 stars because the first set a received had a faulty answer-call button. Amazon quickly sent me a replacement pair and the new pair has worked great! I would highly recommend for anyone looking for a economical set of headphones that are more comfortable then the ones that came with the phone. The lanyard style is also nice to use when working out.
