This item is for a cell phone that has an MP3 player built into it like the LG 8100 or other cell phones. This person clearly didnt read the product type(Cellular phone accesory). It is not meant magically combine your existing cell phone and MP3 player. It is a great product.

the box claims that the item comes with 3 sets of ear gels and a set of foam inserts. it does not come with the foam but the gels are surprisingly comfortable. sound quality leaves something to be desired. they seem to be an "OK" set of headphones but i think still a bit overpriced. ($30 in the store. i see they're cheaper here though.)

I bought these for myself to listen to MP3s on my Verizon "V" phone (LG9800), and am very happy with them. The sound quality is amazing, they fit comfortably, and they minimize outside noise very well because they fit directly into your ears. I am so happy with them that I'm buying them as a gift for someone else to use with his LG cell phone.

I have a few devices (2 cells and various audio listening devices) and I like the ability to keep one headset on me that will work with all of them. I also like a headset that I don't have to worry about charging and putting an increased battery drain on my cell phones.

The Jabra c120 has very good sound quality. It measures up to the other Jabra products that I've used in the past. The eargels channel the sound directly into your ear and seem to increase the sound volume and clarity. They fit comfortably in the ear and come in 3 different sizes for a more custom fit. When on the cell phones, people seem to be able to hear me better than when I'm using the handset.

The one quirk that this product has is a slightly longer cord for the left earpiece with no obvious explanation for it. I looked in the scant documentation for the product and found no mention of this. I finally came across a picture on the website showing a woman with both earpieces going around the right side of her head (instead of the commom Y formation going to each side of the head). I guess this was the design of the longer wire to wrap around the neck to the left ear, but I don't see any advantage to this. Jabra should state that purpose somewhere on the packaging, papers, or website.

It would also be nice to have a clip on the left wire so that extra earpiece isn't dangling around or needlessly stuck in your ear on non-stereo devices (on which only the right earpiece is active). A carrying case would also be nice to keep up with the 3.5mm pin adapter when not in use and to neatly store the headset so the wires don't get tangled.

I bought these for when I ride my motorcycle. The earphones come with 3 sizes of ear molds that will fit just about everyone. It takes some playing with to get your right size and then to figure out the little nub goes in the front. But after that the earphones were great: soft feel, stayed in place without problems, good sound. I would recommend these. :)

I don't think it's possible to make a more uncomfortable pair of head phones. They are awful! I would recommend the Plantronics MHS213 Stereo Mobile Headset. Very happy with the Plantronics.

The eargels turn an unpleasant yellow color in a few weeks. They are strange looking and a little too intimate. The left side cord is ridiculously long and tangles every time you store the headphones. The gels make tangling even more extreme.

Like the other reviews say, no foam is included. I actually returned the first pair I bought, thinking the foam pads were accidentally left out.

The in ear sound is OK. The gels fit well. I get complaints from callers about the sound from the mic.

I am looking for a replacement, I will throw these away when I find it.

I've just finished using my second set of C-120s. The first set shorted out from the constant flex where the wire meets the plug. The second? .... You guessed it. Same problem. I've had it about 4 months each time.

That said, the convenience is great. I like the included 3.5 plug, and several times a day I switch them. The extra plug actually fits into the lapel clip when not being used.

I'll probably buy the third set tonight, and wrap the wire/plug area with something strong in advance. By now the price is under $10, and for the sound quality and convenience, it's an acceptable deal.

I don't like this item because it does not work for my phone. I have an huawei ascend m860 which has an 2.5mm plug for music. I bought the jabra c120 stereo earbuds because i thought it would work for my phone but it don't. I would not tell anyone to purchase this item.

The ear bud worked for a week then they stopped working. The wires started showing and now i have to push on them just so i can hear my music or convos.
