Which earbuds should I get?

Question

Below are the links of the earbuds I'm considering. I don't know much about earbuds to be honest. I'm just looking for one that'll last long, sound the best, and ones that I'll only hear the music, nothing going on around me.

Or are there other earbuds that are at $20 & better than these? They have to be the inner ear kind since only those fit in my ears, and avaliable on Amazon. My brother is the one paying for this and he most likely will not get anything over $26... $26 is actually pushing it haha.

I tried Skullcandy Ink'd for a few days, and I wasn't happy with the sound quality of it. I used to use these V-Moda earbuds for 2 years but they recently died on me (don't know what type it was) and I was really happy with them. They actually look very similar to the Genuine V-Moda Octave Earbuds, but I'm not sure if they were the same exact thing. So I would prefer something that sounds better than the Skullcandy Ink'd earbuds!

Thanks in advance for the feedback! I really appreciate it!

Answer 1

Sennheiser wins hands down! Please do yourself a favour and do NOT buy Karl Kani, WESC, Turtle, JH, Dr.Dre/Beats/Solo, Ludacris/Soul, Koss, Skullcandy, Lady GaGa, Skullcrushers, Monsters nor Bose, because they are ALL seriously overhyped and overpriced "fashion blingbling gimmicks" with a very poor durability and sound quality, NOTHING else (and those who try to claim they are good do NOT know ANYTHING about QUALITY anyway!), be them fake or not! If REAL quality is an issue, please go for REPUTABLE brands only such as B&W, Sennheiser (most affordable), Shure, Grado, Denon, AKG, Audio-Technica, Etymotic or Beyerdynamic. Things like Sony, Panasonic, JVC and Philips are ONLY "okay-ish".
