Apple earphones review

Apple earphones are the white earphones that ship with all music players designed and marketed by Apple Inc. These earphones are manufactured solely by the Fostex corporation of Japan.
There are currently 4 varieties of iPod headphones: The basic Apple Earphones (no controls), which ships with all iPods except the 3rd Gen. Shuffle and 3rd Gen. Touch (32 and 64 GB); the Shuffle Apple Headphones (with Remote), which ships only with the 3rd Gen. Shuffle; the Apple Earphones (with Remote and Mic),
which ships with the iPhone 3GS, iPod Touch 3rd Gen, iPhone 4, and iPhone 4S, and are also sold independently; and the optional "premium" Apple In-Ear Headphones (with Remote and Mic), introduced on September 9, 2008, which are sold independently. The last three of these versions have buttons that allow users to adjust volume and control music and video playback. The control capsule located on the cable of the right earpiece includes three buttons and a microphone on the last two versions. Users can: adjust volume by pressing the + and - buttons, control music and video playback — including play/pause and next/previous — by pressing the center button, and record voice memos on supported iPod and iPhone models. There have been many reports of moisture problems with the remote/mic earbuds. The original iPhone and iPhone 3G came with a modified version of the Apple Headphones - The iPhone Stereo Headset. These were the Apple Headphones but with an additional clicker and remote on the right side of the headphones. The iPhone headset differs from the Apple Headphones with Remote and Mic by not including the volume control.
Apple earphones should play music on anything that has a suitable 3.5mm audio socket. The remote control and microphone features found on some Apple earphones will probably not be available on anything other than a suitable iPod. Or may be you can use the beats headphones for your music player.
