Panasonic RP-TCM125-V ErgoFit Wired Earbuds with Mic

All I can say is "Amazing"! I have been using the non-microphone version of these earbuds for several years now Panasonic ErgoFit In-Ear Earbud Headphones RP-HJE120-K (Black) Dynamic Crystal Clear Sound, Ergonomic Comfort-Fit and when I saw that they now had a version with a microphone I couldn't wait to try them out. They did not disappoint. Before I continue, remember that these are under $20 and the non-microphone version are under $15. With that price, your first impression will usually be "cheap and crappy". While the parts are of the cheaper variety and the cable could stand to be a bit heavier, the sound quality is amazing - for cheap earbuds. I have many varieties and classes of in-ear monitors with these being the cheapest. These cheap in-ear monitors are within about 95% of the sonic quality (to my ears) of my more expensive Etymotec in-ear monitors. The have great bass response and smooth mids and highs due to the large drivers. No harsh tones. They are of the newer oval "interface" design meaning the parts you put in your ear canal are actually more closely to the shape of your ear allowing for a fantastically comfortable fit. It also helps that that they come with interchangeable silicon tips for a perfect fit. I have worn these on a regular basis for very long periods and have never had issues with sore ear canals. I've also worn these many times while sleeping. I currently use these with a Samsung Galaxy S7 and have no issues with microphone or earphone quality. I'm impressed at how clear the microphone sounds although I can't speak to any noise-cancellation qualities. From a build quality perspective, they are of descent quality for the price. I've had several sets of the non-microphone version in daily use for over a year. The only issue I've ever experienced is a small vent hole on the side that faces the ear getting plugged up and requiring a small needle to clear it out restoring bass to it's proper level. There have been complaints that these in-ear monitors lack bass response and sound "muddy". These are primarily the symptoms of improper placement in the ear canal leading to a broken seal. In-ear monitors require that the business end be sealed against air leaks when properly placed. This is not to block out external noise - although that is one way to tell when the seal is in place. In-ear monitors require a sealed airspace to couple the in-ear monitor's driver with the eardrum. It there is a leak, pressure from the driver leaks out of the ear canal which leads to poor base response and other frequencies that become "unbalanced". The best thing you can do if you purchase these or any other in-ear monitors is to spend 30 minutes test fitting using the different size ear tips. They should fit snugly but not forced and they shouldn't feel like they want to pop out on their own. When the in-ear monitors have been correctly fitted, they should almost feel like they aren't there.

If you don't want to read my long review skip to the last paragraph and it should tell you all you really need to know! Those really looking for a good pair of earbuds and "researching" reviews this is for you! Seriously I absolutely LOVE these. I have never used in ear earbuds but honestly they are extremely comfortable, way more comfortable than regular earbuds any day of the week or hot & sweaty over the ear headphones. They reach a great volume and the sound is incredibly crisp with no static or needing to twist it just right in your headphone-jack to get some resemblance of clarity lol if you know, you know!!! The microphone on them is good enough to use for phone calls, I have had zero complaints or even had anyone notice if I'm using them opposed to regular hand held mode. They are not rated as noise cancelling however I have found that at just about half volume they do a decent job drowning out any background noises while listening to my podcast and music. They have a sleek aesthetic without compromise of any ergonomics. The colored pairs are accurately depicted and very beautiful tones.... Most importantly they are BUILT TO LAST!!!! That's right folks the barely more than$10 earbuds are top notch quality, reliability, and just downright built to last. I'm rough on earbuds and my 7, 11 & 15 year old sons are even more rough if it's even possible. However here we are after over 2 months of use and the 4 of us sharing and using 2 pairs of these for homeschool online tutoring, music, tik tok, you tube, Xbox, phone calls, video chats, Nintendo switch, Netflix, audible, podcasts ECT and of course dropping 1927749372347927 times, unplugging and plugging in even more times, and my personal favorite dropping the ear pieces in water, coffee and tea numerous times as well as the time one pair took a ride through my washer and dryer in my son's jeans and worked the next day!!!!! They still work as well as they did the day we opened them! So yes I'd recommend them to anyone and everyone that will listen!

I have been a regular customer for this Panasonic ergonomic fit for the last 10 years. I purchased this at least 8 times, and it fits my need perfectly. I think theres a clear reason why I keep coming back for this product. Its reliable, sound is pretty good, and with the mic I always use this for meetings that need me to speak. If I use it regularly for just listening to music and other stuff, this thing can last pretty long. Sound quality does go down over extended period of time using it, and my last one had left ear blown out which is the reason I purchased another one. For this price you will be happy with this product. Also the price hasn't jacked up since I first purchased which is a good sign. Another thing is it comes with different ear fits, which is great. My ear is pretty small so if you have small ear this might be a product for you. Anyways, I cant believe I havent wrote any reviews in the past 10 years so here is an honest review of someone who purchased this thing consistently in the last decade.

Llevo usando este producto cerca de 5 años y me sigue pareciendo increíble, son cómodos, la ecualización es perfecta, sin duda no los cambiaría además de que el costo me parece excelente por la calidad que ofrecen.

Value for Money !

Great fit into ears, does not fall out. Lightweight and attractive, would buy again.

I wanted a comfortable headset for zoom/skype calls as well as well as listening to music. I spent ages looking around and settled on these, almost in spite of their price. They didn't disappoint. People comment on the good mike sound when I'm on a call, and when Iisten to recordings of zoom calls I've been on, the sound quality is more pleasing that of some people wearing obviously expensive headsets with a mike near the mouth. It's a mellow but clear sound, not precise but harsh like many. The sound on the earbuds is also very pleasant. It doesn't seem prone to clothes rustling sounds transmitting to the mike, like many of this sort, or cable rustling sounds coming thru to the earbuds, although of course some of that happens. The connector feels sturdy, and hopefully less prone to disintegration that the straight connectors. And the hype is true, the earbuds themselves fit very neatly and comfortably. I've only had them a few weeks, so longevity is unknown. I dont usually review items, but felt that this deserves a shout-out, and I'd happily pay double the price.

One of of the best... beautiful bass, beautiful featings....best quality in this price 😍😍😍😍😍
