You wont find the bass needing. the sound is very clear and I really like how easy it is to put in my ear. Once the phone is in it, its not that noticeable. They still squeak and the soles have worn through at the balls of the feet. Amazon work fast. I wear them without the backstrap in place - it rests as seen in the picture instead. As the other reviews said, the keys make noise, but it isnt loud or obnoxious in any way. those one are very good on that aspect. So if you are looking for something to hold cans, this wont be it. Pure junk don?t buy it.
