I have a set of Koss head phones that are basically the same as far as the button functions. I played with them and "cram" was just an expression I used. They really aren't that bad at all. Terry my husband likes them a lot. Thanks and take care.

Then as you put them in rotate them so the cable points down, they in a way twist into your ear. The remote has 3 separate areas, the middle part which is resessed, the top above the resessed area towards the ear and the bottom below. Here are the functions: Push at the top: increase volume (to increase it by a lot repeatedly push and release, pushing and holding does nothing). If camera is open this takes a picture Push at the bottom: decrease volume (to decrease it by a lot repeatedly push and release, pushing and holding does nothing) Push the middle once: Play/Pause if you have music or an audio book playing. If your phone rings, Answer/Hanggggup. If you are on a call and somebody else calls you switch to the second call putting the first call on hold. Push and hold: Activates SIRI (same as pushing and holding the home button) Push twice quickly: skips to the next song/chapter Push twice quickly and hold on the second push: fast forward Push three times quickly: Goes back to the beginning of a song or chapter, do it twice and it goes back to the previous song/chapter Push three times quickly and hold on the third push: rewinds Maybe I forgot something here and of course these instructions should work with any remote on any third party headset as well.

They don't look all that comfortable, but who knows. Thanks.

I think I got this right, but it's possible I somehow got it wrong, and I've been doing it the wrong way for the last few years. The larger opening on the side of the buds should face forward. In other words, the bud on the same line with the mike and the inline controls should go on the left. I assume there are also some little markers, like an 'r' and and 'l' to let sighted users know which bud goes in which ear. Once you get the hang of it, I think you'll find that they're a bit more comfortable with a bit better sound then what you got in the older earbuds, but of course, as with all things related to headphones, it's all subjective!

They look like they are on an angle and there is another little hole in the ear piece. Or at least what I assume is an ear piece. They really look weird and I have never tried to use them. They have an in line set of three switches and what might be a mic. Thanks much for any help.

I think all you can get these days is the EarPods. They're similiar to the earbuds but they're more ergonomic, so many people prefer them over the original earbuds. https://www.imore.com/apple-earpods-review If you're talking about the AirPods, these are bluetooth wireless ear buds. I don't have a pair myself, but they're similar to the EarPods in size and shape, but they don't have any wires. They pair easily with Apple devices and come with a charging case. https://www.wired.com/2017/04/review-apple-airpods/ On 11/07/2017 05:19 PM, [email protected] wrote: Hello, What are the differences between the following items Apple ear buds and or ear pods and how well do either perform and sound and or operate?
