If you can get a good fit with the MetroFi 220 earphones, you'll be rewarded with good sound quality across all musical genres, and solid noise isolation. For users of stock earphones looking to upgrade and still have money left in their wallet, the 220s are a worthy option Read more

Creative EP-630 review
If you want to step up from stock earbuds but aren't absurdly picky about audio quality and don't want to spend a fortune, the EP-630 earphones are a solid option. Durability may be an issue, but they're compact, comfortable, relatively stylish and offer good sound quality for the money Read more

AKG K 340 review
The K 340 earphones fall short in the visual-stimulation stakes, but their overall sound quality is solid and they'll probably appeal to those who like plenty of bass. A handy inline volume slider and a hard-sided carrying case for storing and transporting the headphones are welcome bonuses Read more

Sony MDR-AS100W Active Headphones review
it can be surprisingly difficult to find a decent pair of fitness-friendly headphones, but Sony has entered the fray with its Active Headphones range. The AS100Ws are well designed, with an adjustable over-the-head band that should fit snugly on most gym bunnies. They don't sound bad, either Read more

Nixon Nomadic on-ear headphones review
The Nomadic on-ear headphones don't offer the best sound quality we've ever heard but they are exceptionally stylish. They have a sturdy design, too, and you can get them in a wide range of colours and configurations. A variety of handy extras, like a hard-shell carrying case, rounds out a decent package Read more

Inspired by Lady Gaga, these in-ear headphones are exactly what you'd expect: completely over the top and stylish to the point of absurdity. If you can wear the triangular earpieces comfortably, you like plenty of bass and you want to catch eyeballs, these earphones will suit you well Read more
