Which headphones/EarPods do you use with your iPhone? I know most of you get something a little better that the Apple EarPods. I have the B&W C5's (superb sound) and the Bose QC20i which are by far the most comfortable in ears I've ever tried, although they don't sound as good as the B&W's.

So, it's comfort vs quality. Which would you go for? What do you use? Recommend?
 
I'm not an audiophile and I don't use my iDevices to stream music much so I just use the standard earpods my iDevice came with.

If it's the Apple ones you're on about, I can't get them to stay in my ears.
 
I use the stock EarPods from my iPhone 5.

I owned iPods in the 2000's and back then, the Apple earbuds were exceptionally awful. With the EarPods though, I don't feel like I need an aftermarket solution for an everyday carry audio solution.

bose in-ear soundtrue. As for comfort vs quality, comfort was the first thing I had in mind because I need something that would be comfortable wearing either at the gym or in the office. I also wanted something a bit more in quality over the EarPods without breaking the bank sort to speak. These in-ear soundtrue is a perfect match for me.

Mine is Sennheiser MX170, a budget earphone. I don't like bulky headphone.
