Creative EP-830 review

 

A lack of weight and drive mean that the Creative EP-830s are only worthy of three stars

Dig up reasonable detail

Lack weight and drive ; bass sounds lightweight

Unbalanced sound means that these buds are just not worth the money

Isolate yourself from the outside world

Powerful bass response, crisp high-range

Muddy bass, invasive

Creative’s EP-830 in-ear headphones are a great option if you need decent sound quality as well as noise isolation. The headphone cable can cause a bit of discomfort if it's not secured, but these are decent quality in-ear buds.

Creative EP-830

 

Dirt cheap if you can find a good price. Impressive sound quality of a much higher price tag Very good bass Good sound insolation Portable and inconspicous

Very poor build quality. Two pairs broke, separate suppliers, in about 3 months and I was careful with the second pair.

Great, But eventually broke.

 

Really great earphones which blocked out the surrounding noise so i could hear my music at the best quality. Nice and comfortable ear plug.

A great buy

 

I'm amazed these headphones have lasted over 14 months, with regular daily use and still going strong.

They lasted less than 4 weeks

 

They lasted less than 4 weeks of normal, gentle usage. I will not claim warranty. Why wasting time and money for shipment just to get another poor quality item. I will just will buy other brand somewhere else.
