How long do these earphones have lasted for you?

One year. The common wire became intermittent and eventually broke inside somewhere near the connector.

I've had these earphones for a couple of months and they still work perfectly fine.

I've had mine over two years and they still look and sound as great as the day I received them. I love these AT headphones!

My first pair was stolen before they had a chance to wear out. The current pair is at 6 months and is beginning to show some fraying at the bend, but this is nothing liquid electrical tape couldn't touch up seamlessly. These isolate better than the other monoprice noise isolating earphones with the bulkier base, because these create an actual seal. The others do not, and fall out easily.

Kyle, I have had these headphones only about 3 months. So far they are doing well...seem to be very durable and tough. I'm not rough with them but I have dropped them a couple times but on a carpeted floor. I use mine several time a week but not every day. I use mine for listening to Spotify on my laptop. I am well pleased with them although I haven't had then very long! Very comfortable and sound good considering what my source of music comes from. I hope this helps you. Sorry I haven't had them longer to give you a better answer as to their durability!

Yes, I feel they are durable. The cable is a bit less flexible than others, but most of my other earphones fail at the cable, either at the connection or the insulation, these have not done that. Also, I noticed my pair had a short break-in period.

They are good quality. 20 years? I have had them for 2 years now and they seem to be doing ok. However I cannot assess whether they will last 20 years. If you are looking for a good long term investment in your audio setup it may be better to look for options that explicitly guarantee long term duration, as this ones don't say anything about that. In my opinion, if these babies give you 5+ years, it was already a good investment, as I love the sound they have.

I dunno, I'm 38 years old and I've had these for about two years. I had to buy new tips because I lost one somewhere but, other than that, they still deliver great sound and aren't falling apart in any way. I use them practically every day, wrap em up and stuff in my pocket after use, and haven't had any problems. My wife, on the other hand, can't seem to make hers last past six months. I dunno, I guess it has to do with each person.

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?

I am not sure about your question. I believe these headphones have been out for about 2 years.

I wear them for about three - four hours every day. This is the third set of headphones that I have purchased that have this type of ear bud, because the other kind won't stay in my ears. I have very small 'ear openings,' and they fall out. I think I could probably stand to wear them for about 6 hours, but not much longer. They are comfortable, and they seem to be made out of some kind of pliable material. If I remember correctly, that is why I chose them. I hope that helps.

I've had these headphones since February 11, 2013. I take them to work and jogging and they still sound the same as when I bought them. Cable is intact and wiggling the cable on both ends doesn't cause any audio skips. That's always been my curse with headphones, one side will eventually go out, but these are still going strong for a year now.

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.

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.

How long is a long time? I probably have a pair that I use at least 3 times a week while hopping around at the gym. They may last between 6 months to a year. But they are so inexpensive, with fantastic sound, plus the ear piece stays in my ear; totally worth it to me. Good luck!

I've only had mine for about 2 months, so I can't speak for how long they last. Fortunately, no issues thus far with them.

Mine lasted three months and one week. The sound was great, and the ribbon cable did prevent twisting. The screen in the left bud fell out several weeks ago, but they still worked fine. Today, however, the sound started cutting out on the same bud. Same issue as another member had, jiggling the wire at the plug would get it back, but during a run that fix lasts about two strides. I've had just as good luck with $20 headphones.

I bought a pair on 8 April 2014. The left earbud just crapped out on me 5 minutes ago. The warranty ended not so long ago, but I'm about to buy another pair.

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