Pros & Cons
Pros
The p185's and the p190's both hang comfortably on the ear without ear pain associated with insertable-type ear buds. The essential ingredient of a good ear bud is they deliver quality sound at a very reasonable price.
I buy a new pair about yearly because the durability isn't top-notch. I wish the earbuds were rubberized instead of plastic because i don't like the foam covers very much but they're not a deal-breaker.
Bass is rich and treble is clear without sounding harsh. You get the nice clean bass thump without the boom that muddies up the works in these ear buds just like the bose 901's. The sound is a little short on bass but mids and highs are full range.
Cons
The foam-fabric covers for the ear buds fell off and were lost after the first wear. There is no volume control from the headphones. The left earphone keeps falling out of my ear after slight movements.

The quality of the sound is very good but maybe slightly inferior to the earphones that came with my ipod which this pair replaces
Price
Absolutely unbeatable for the price or even several times the price
If you like earbudthis one will be good at this price
Packaging/appearance
Also the packaging says there is an additional cable adaptor for cell phones with different microphone configuration
I have never found the inear silicone type earbuds comfortable
Competitiveness
I loathe inear headphones so i like this style
This works just as well as the apple bose and other hipriced earbuds at a fraction of the cost
