Designed for use with Apple's iPhone, iPad and iPod, the CX 890i earphones feature a stylish and comfortable design with a choice of earbud sizes to ensure a good fit. Sound quality is excellent, and an in-line remote and mic make these earphones the perfect replacements for the factory issue earphones supplied with the iPhone and hands free calls. In the review The Sunday Times, said "The ball-shaped buds sit well in the ear and feel secure. Sound quality is balanced, with a decent amount of bass when required: whether listening to acoustic tracks, rock or dance music, these are accomplished all-rounders."
