I own a slew of headphones and earphones ranging in listening comfort and sound quality from bad to great. The sound quality and comfort of this BB headset are closer to the great side. Good highs and reasonable bass, callers sound better than on the normal speaker in the phone, and callers hear me well. The small microphone is located at the right place on the wire to maximize clarity.

I use this as my MP3 player while mountain biking. When I get a call on my BB Flip it automatically stops the music and I hear the caller. I can also end the call without digging the phone out from my pack. I like that the right bud has a red mark to signify its ear location, and the included shirt clip can change position to best control the movement of the wire.

RIM should be packaging this in the box with all new Storms! Regular ear buds have never fit into my ears so I decided to pick these up as a replacement for $6 and I'm very happy with them. The sound quality is very good while playing music and since they slip into your ear they do a great job of blocking outside noise as well. I also use Bose in ear head phones and while the sound quality of these OEM headphones isn't quite as good, it is close. Even low tones come through very cleanly, in fact I'm listening to Pandora radio on my Blackbery Storm right now and instead of through my computer speakers because the sound quality is so clear.
I must have a weird ear shape because most round ear buds will not stay in my left ear but these stay while running and shaking my head. I can even pull quite hard on the wires and the ear piece will not come out. The headphones come with 3 different sizes of ear piece so they will fit most ears.
The mic quality is reported as good from the people I have talked to on the phone.
Be advised the wires from the jack to the ear phones are relatively short, I prefer this since most long wires do nothing more than get in the way, some people may have an issue with that. I am 6' tall and while standing, running, sitting etc I haven't had an issue with the wires being too short or tugging at the ear piece in any way.
They have a nice clean look. Black with silver accents and the Blackberry logo on the ear piece.
Great buy if you use headphones on your phone a lot.

This is exactly what I was looking for. No batteries to run down, no set up. Simple and for me, I wanted the soft ear plugs. The original headset/ microphone which came with the Blackberry had hard ear buds which I found to be uncomfortable. This headset solved that problem for me. I find it has good sound quality and the people can hear me clearly. MUCH clearer than with a bluetooth headset or visor speaker at road speeds. Also, the price was right.
