i would just spend the extra $5.

i have the skullcandy lowriders, basically just for the plane and stuff. nothing spectacular but good for the money.

the inked are just another version of the smokin buds.. i just checked their site and they list their fullmetal jackets which I also looked at, however they have a version that has a mic built in for the iphone! looks like i will be grabbing a set of those up pretty soon

I got the Smokin Buds ($15), and I really like them.

I would like to know if any of you have cut the insulation on these earphones to make them work without an adapter on the iphone. How much does it need to be cut? Thanks :)

you must have gotten the old versions of the headphones... the new smoking buds have an iphone friendly connector.

but with cutting you typically only have to trim 1/8"

Ive seen the skullcandy package that says "works with iphone" so Id assumed the jack fit. My question is about the wires. Is 1 earbud on a shorter wire than the other? My wife had an old pair of SC earbuds and they were like this. I HATE earbuds that have 2 different lengths on the wires.

Mine are not like that, they are the same length.

I didn't even check the packaging to see of they work with the iPhone ha ha, I just assumed that they didn't. I don't have the iPhone quite yet, so hopefully they will just work when I get it.

Great buds

I like the monster in-ear bud style headsets..a little on the pricey side.. but great sound and features
