How long do these headphones last? The ones I use only last about 1-2 months before dying out. Thanks!

I have several pairs 2 have been used almost daily, they are still going strong after a year of use. I will continue to buy in future and use these more than my Bose!

First pair lasted 15 months, and the second pair lasted 2, but only because I damaged it.

I have 3 pairs. One has lasted over a year and a half (but is experiencing static when the cord is jiggled), one has lasted about 6 months and the third is only a month old, and were bought to replace the ones that are experiencing static for when they finally do die. All have been great.

After daily use, 2 out of 3 of mine are still going strong after 4 months (3 kids/teens use them). One of them just stopped working at the 4 month mark. For the price, you cannot beat these earbuds.

I've been using my current pair about 14 months, with almost daily use. I'm particularly impressed that the cord has held up -- the Sony headphones used to short out because of tangles causing the the wire in the cord to come in contact, usually in about six months of use. These are cheaper, sound better, and appear to be more durable.

Not sure how long they last. But I have had mine a few months with no issues

I can't remember exactly but I know it over a year. I didn't use them too often, but they held up pretty well for me.

2.5 years later, I am purchasing a replacement set. Best quality $5 earbuds I've owned.

I had my first pair for 10 months before I lost them, but they still worked. My second pair lasted 9 months but I am extremely hard on my headphones and use them all the time (an hour or more daily).

I had several pairs neither one lasted more than a month before breaking. Save your money, I found some good klipsch headphones on amazon that were marked down from a $100 to $20. Accidentally put them through the wash a couple months ago and they still work, buy those.

Honestly I'm not sure, I got rid of the headphones. Though I do need to update the review. Skullcandy did honor the warranty but had the exact same issue with the replacement headphones. Guess it wasn't meant to be.

they were worth it for me. of course they are cheaply made, and will die eventually, but every set that I had lasted me a few months before something went wrong with them. if youre looking to just have a steady supply of headphones then id go ahead. but if you're looking for quality, then look at another product lol

For me about 2-3 years before went mute. I also bought them for $25. I replaced these with sony earbuds with extra bass.

As others have stated, they're over-ear. I have been using mine for the past 3 years and these headphones are unbeatable for the price that they're sold at.As for comfort, I use them at work and have them on my head for about 6 hours a day..... Most of the time, without anything playing haha. I usually tend to forget they're on my head until my ears start to sweat a little.As long as I take them off my head every 30 minutes and let my ears 'air out' for a minute or two, I can have these on indefinitely. I actually like leaving them on without any music playing to be honest. It's a comfort thing, and people see the headphones and think twice about talking to me and disturbing me at work.

I am now on my second pair of these headphones. I take pretty good care of mine and they will last me YEARS (I'd have to estimate at least 5 yrs of use before I purchased a new pair) . For sure worth the money. I adore these headphones. Let me know if you have any other questions.

It's a crap-shoot, really. I had jbuds that only lasted for four months, and then these Sennheisers lasted for about a year. The Sennheisers sound a bit better in my opinion. I've also had another pair of jbuds for a bit that are currently still working.

No in-ears last for a long time due to the continual stress to the wires, specifically where they connect to the jack and buds. These lasted me about a year and a half, WITH repairs being done to them a few times. Once you get good at it, you'll be able to solder in new wires almost indefinitely, then the drivers start to get old and degrade after about three years of use.

The warranty on these is 5 years but they've been discontinued. Monster/Beats have the worst warranty service in the industry. I have the same problem and was told I can pick any IEM form their current line up but they seriously lack in comparison to these. Apparently they're reintroducing the line-up late this year, so I'd say wait unless you absolutely need them.

these are awesome earbuds with great sound! can't really comment on durability as have only had them about a month and a half, but so far so good (& I blow thru earbuds like they're disposable). They do come with a 2 year warranty which is nice. Hope that helps

I've never measured the battery life, but what I can say is that they last a very long time. I am still amazed at how long the talk and listening time is. The battery life on these headphones are truly amazing.

Well, I've only had them since December, but the cable is nice and sturdy, which is a must have for me. My headphones simply don't last since they go through a lot of stress. Some have lasted as little as a week, but none more than two months. As much as they've been through already, they've held up well, and they still sound fantastic.

I have yet to listen to them from a fresh charge to fully dead in one straight session so I cannot give you an accurate time frame but it took two weeks of off and on listening before they died the first time. You should get at least 6-8 hrs atleast from them. The sound is good, bass is not the best I heard out of head phones but it is good for ear bud type headphones.

I wear mine for 1-2 months. They eventually get too soft and don't expand well and they usually are a little soiled from ear wax. I got the package and have had them for probably a year?
