Good comfortable earphones
These are my goto earphones for when I am listening to something on my iPad. I know I can get wireless versions, but the sound is great and I don’t care about a cord. I bought these to replace my 8 year old others.

good value and harder to lose
Apple earpods with 3.5mm headphone plug are suitable for my ipods which I still love to listen to music and relaxing. Easy to use and not so easy to lose if they fall out.

At a glance
The Apple EarPods with 3.5mm Headphone Plug are straightforward wired in-ear headphones for everyday listening, calls and media control. They suit people who want a familiar fit, easy plug-and-play use and a built-in mic without charging or pairing. Key strengths are comfort, simple inline controls and dependable wired connection. The main limitation is that they offer basic isolation and fewer premium audio features than higher-end in-ear models.

Things to consider
These EarPods are convenient and easy to use, but they do not provide the stronger passive noise isolation, deeper fit customisation or more refined sound tuning you may get from premium in-ear headphones.
Studio use suitability
Best for casual monitoring and voice calls rather than detailed studio mixing or critical listening.
Commuter friendliness
7/10 - lightweight, easy to carry and reliable without charging, but limited noise isolation in louder environments.
Audio quality score
7/10 - clear, balanced sound with decent bass for everyday use, though not as immersive or detailed as premium in-ear options.
Durability vs portability
Highly portable and practical for daily carry, with reasonable everyday durability but a lighter build than more rugged specialist earphones.
Key benefits
- 3.5mm Headphone Plug: Connects directly to compatible devices without needing Bluetooth pairing or battery charging.
- In-Ear EarPods Design: Shaped for a comfortable everyday fit that suits many listeners better than traditional round earbuds.
- Built-In Microphone: Lets you take calls and speak clearly without switching to your phone’s handset.
- Inline Remote: Makes it easier to control music and video playback while keeping your device in your pocket or bag.
- Call Control Support: Allows you to answer and end calls quickly from the cable remote.
- Apple-Tuned Speakers: Designed to minimise sound loss and deliver clear, balanced everyday audio.
- Sweat and Water Resistance: Offers added reassurance for light daily use and casual movement.
- Lightweight Wired Build: Easy to carry as a simple grab-and-go audio option for work, study or travel.
Q: Will these EarPods work with newer iPhones and iPads?
A: No, not directly on models without a 3.5mm headphone socket. Apple EarPods with 3.5mm Headphone Plug need a device with a headphone jack or a compatible adapter, so they are a simpler match for older Apple devices and many laptops.
Q: Can I use them for laptop calls and online classes?
A: Yes, if the laptop has a 3.5mm headset connection. Apple EarPods with 3.5mm Headphone Plug include a built-in microphone for calls and classes, but some computers use separate headphone and mic ports, which may require an adapter.
Q: Do the inline controls work on every 3.5mm device?
A: Audio playback will generally work on most devices with a 3.5mm headphone connection. The microphone and inline remote are most reliable on devices that support headset controls, so volume and playback functions can vary between phones, tablets and computers.
Q: How much outside noise do these wired EarPods block?
A: Apple EarPods with 3.5mm Headphone Plug block only a modest amount of outside sound. Their open earbud design sits in the ear rather than sealing it, so they suit casual listening and calls better than noisy commutes or focused listening in busy places.
Q: Are they suitable for running or gym workouts?
A: They can handle light exercise, but they are not a dedicated sports fit. Apple EarPods with 3.5mm Headphone Plug have greater protection from sweat and water, though the open earbud shape has no silicone tips or ear hooks to hold them more firmly in place.
Q: What fit do Apple EarPods with headphone plug have?
A: Apple EarPods with 3.5mm Headphone Plug have an earbud-style fit, not a sealed in-ear fit with silicone tips. They rest in the ear for a lighter feel, which many buyers like for everyday use, but that design also means less isolation and a less locked-in fit.
