AKG Stereo Headphones for Samsung Galaxy S8 / S9 / S8 Plus / S9 Plus / S10 / Note 8/9, with Microphone

The sound quality is very good (a.k.a. Hi-Fi), similar to the original earphones that came with the phone, and they are also comfortable to wear. I had previously ordered these same earphones from a different supplier, but unfortunately, they had a very tinny sound, which I suspect may have been a non-genuine product. This seller's product is a significant improvement! I later decided to add some diagrams I had come across earlier, which may be of interest to those who enjoy geeky details. The exploded view shows that these earphones, known as Samsung AKG IO-IG955 (AKG Harman company became a subsidiary of Samsung Electronics in 2017), feature dual drivers, commonly referred to as a two-way speaker. I disassembled my old, broken pair and measured the diaphragms of these drivers. Two-way drivers are beneficial for their improved frequency response, as one driver is dedicated to producing bass, while the other is responsible for high-pitched sounds. AKG's tuning process involves adjusting the drivers and incorporating various damping materials to achieve a flat frequency response. Notably, the frequency response diagram shows a small peak at 15kHz on the right side, which contributes to the sense of presence in the sound. This, combined with the overall shape of the curve, is a key aspect of the earphones' performance. In contrast, the frequency response of most other earphones deteriorates above 10kHz, although some Sony products and a few other AKG-tuned earphones exhibit reasonable performance in this regard.

Fast efficient delivery, great quality, noise cancelling is great (I can barely hear my wife nagging me to build a shed any more).

Ok

Bought these after looking at there round rubber bits which fit in your ear. They looked like a nice comfy fit. They are, and stay in your ear.

Headphones are initially decent. Sound is clear and has very little sound leakage. However, the right headphone scouts working within a couple of months of regular use. Fine if you are looking for a short term option. But for longevity you were better off investing in a more premium pair of headphones.

Terrible sound quality, either product build quality have dropped or were sent a faulty pair, I’ve bought 15x plus over the years.

It works as expected it do

I buy these and put them into my bags so i always have them handy. They've never broken. They are amazing.
