I hope JVC will continue to make these earbuds for those of us who don't have an overflowing wallet and can't stand chunks of rubber stuck deep into our ear canals.
My favorite part: You don't shove them deep into your ear! I hated how my earwax would get stuck inside my other earphones, and it made me anxious over whether I was letting myself get an ear infection. It also hurt my ears trying to shove the silicone-part of the bud into my ears before. Like the Apple earphones, these don't do that! I don't know if you still need to clean these, but I'm still infinitely happier with these.
Sound quality: I bought some cheap $20 Bluetooth earphones (Airpods ripoff), and the sound quality of these earphones are way better than the Bluetooth ones. They're also probably better quality than the Apple earphones too, because I remember at some point one of the sides of the buds gave up on me. Some Apple earphones have glitched out on sound quality also. This hasn't happened for these earphones.
The wire length is about an arm's length (a bit longer), so they're convenient for travel and a lack of tangling.
They're not noise-proof, but I personally like that because family members barge into my room all the time asking me questions and I'd rather not have to ask them to repeat themselves.

These... are very hard to recommend. The base shape is fine, however the protrusions on these models dig into your ears, making them very uncomfortable to wear for any decent period of time, whereas I can wear the original models for an entire shift with no issue. The additional bass also just... doesn't really feel like it adds anything to the experience.
Otherwise, they still sound fine personally. I'm not an audiophile so they served my purposes just fine. I'll likely just revert to buying the older models again or maybe looking for Samsung earbuds as they offer a similar style. If you're fine with all white earbuds, just get the older, non-bass boost Gumy models. They're a couple dollars more expensive, likely due to being end-of-life, but I prefer them in just about every way, and they're still very cheap.

Seria mas útil que tuviera el plug en escuadra para evitar daño o torsión del cable, y por ende, mal funcionamiento.
