The Apple EarPods with Remote and Mic are designed to rest comfortably inside — and stay inside — a variety of ear types. And you can use the improved remote to adjust volume, control music and video playback, and answer or end calls on your iPhone. Ear-Moulding Fit Unlike traditional, circular earbuds, the design of the new Apple EarPods is defined by the geometry of the ear. Which makes them more comfortable for more people than any other earbud-style headphone. Professional, Noise-Isolating Sound The speakers inside Apple EarPods have been engineered to minimise sound loss and maximise sound output. So you get high-quality audio that's just as impressive as what you'd hear from more expensive headphones. Please note: The remote and mic are supported by all models of iPod, iPhone and iPad (not all models support volume up/down functions). Audio is supported by all iPod models.
