Do these headphones last a long time?

I've had pairs that lasted months, and then I just had a pair that lasted 2 weeks. This wasn't playing extreme sports or anything, I was simply listening to music at work.

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!

Not too sure, however I can vouch for their durability. Keep them away from sharp objects and they should last for the life of the headphones.

I can't answer for sure, but I bought mine in March 2013 and they are still as good today, 4 months later. So, at least that long. :)

Diane, no they are not. I specifically bought them for that reason because I have heard from owners of wireless headphones that the battery does not last that long and in order to keep using them after the battery dies, you have to buy another battery (which aren't cheap). Hope this helped.

As for me? No, my ears don't hurt during extended use. These are some of the best headphones I've owned. Seriously.

I bought mine many months ago and they still work. I have learned to be gentle with earphones, because I really got tired of having to continually buy new ones. Just don't be rough and they should last a while.

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!

I've had these earbuds for almost three years (I got them during a Christmastime lightning deal in 2011), and I work out with them at least four days a week, and hour each time. They still perform great.

I've had the SR125 headphones for two or three years now and use them at work. They're still in great shape and sound great. They are open headphones though, so you do have to take other folks in the room under consideration.

I have had the headphones for over an year and wear them almost everyday at the gym as well as often on my bike. I have yet to need to replace them.

I've had mine for about 6 months and they work as if new. However, I would recommend the Apple earpods as another solution. They are fantastic. But, if they're a bit out of your price range, these are definitely the way to go.

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 have had these headphones for about three months and nothing has went wrong. They sound very good and are well worth the money.

No they pretty good at lasting long. I have dropped them a lot and they still work like they are brand new. To note these are really loud even if you don't have it on the volume all the way up too

These cables are definitely not think. If you take care of them they will last pretty long i believe.I do not think that you can get better sounding in ear headphones for that price, I am still blown away by their performance.

Got them during summer of 1998 or 1999. They have probably about 500-1000 hours of use. They outlasted the Headroom headphone amplifier I bought them with. I still use them a couple times per week and the sound quality doesn't seem lacking. I'm only here shopping for replacement earpads and was surprised to see this model is still in production.

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.
