Today's Bonus:
There is really a whole lot to like about the Sport-Fi S6P. To begin, you get a lot of goodies for your buck. You get the in-ear headphones, a microphone, remote volume control, and an armband. Oh, and a nice carrying case, one that's small enough to fit in a purse or a jacket pocket.
The sound quality is surprisingly good given that the entire package is so inexpensive. Does it compare to my very expensive Klipsch headphones? No. But as I said, for such a low price, the sound is amazingly good. Additionally, the in-ear earphones do a nice job of canceling out mild ambient noise, such as traffic, overhead planes, and wind. This is a biggee if you're a jogger.
I'm a martial artist so I put on the armband with my iPhone secure in the pocket, wrapped what they call the "memory wire" around my ears, and commenced to have a hard solo workout. I practiced a variety of hand techniques in the air, starting slowly and progressing to all-out speed, and then moved over to the heavy bag and pummeled away. The armband held my phone securely for my entire training session and the in-ear headphones remained in place too.
I didn't have any problems wearing the unit while doing yard work and, of course, no problems kicking back on the sofa listening to my tunes.
Highly recommended.

I have a pair of MEElectronics Sport-Fi S6 and I love them. Because of this, I was eager to try the S6P with the phone control and in a different color. Just like the standard S6, these didn't let me down.The Pros:
The sound is fantastic. It doesn't matter how you eq your music, these sound exactly how you want them to.
Great for running. I sweat a lot, and these don't budge.
Controls are right where they need to be. No need to touch your phone to take a call, pause/play music, skip tracks....
Very stylish
Carrying case is better now than it was with the original S6. The original was a little too bulky.
Arm band is also better than the original S6 armband. You can see your phone's screen on this one, and control it while it is in the arm band. The hidden key slot is a genius feature. It will also fit any arm..... big, small, you name it.
The extension cable makes it so you can use the headphones with your phone in your pocket or shorten the cable to use it with the arm band.
Sound isolation is great as well. These do not cancel outside noise, but they do a heck of a job isolating it. I use these on airplanes and swear by them.
Cons:
-The only con is that the arm band doesn't really fit in the carrying case. It fits around it very nicely, but not inside it. I don't really consider this a con because if the arm band fit in the case, the case wouldn't be as small and streamline. Personally if I am carrying them in the case, I'm probably traveling and wouldn't have the arm band with me anyway. Again not much of a con.
Conclusion:
BUY THESE HEADPHONES. They sound great, they look great, they perform great, they come with more than you could ever ask for.MEElectronics Sport-Fi 26P are AWESOME. I've used their previous version and those were amazing as well, but the fact that I can now even use my phone and answer calls? It's great! VERY VERY Pleased by the quality of build, sound, and aesthetics.
My favorite features:
Behind-The-Ear molding wires: makes for an amazing fit and it stays secure. When I'm at the gym I do a lot of plyometric exercises and my favorite is to jump rope, I've never once had an issue with fitment and stability with these.
Sound Quality: Beats my Sony's any day. Clear sound, just the right amount of bass for me on my standard EQ settings. Great frequency range too.
Clips: What makes these earphones so unique to me are the clips. I can clip the cable to my shirt and the wires stay put. So when I'm doing jumping, skipping rope, running, and the like I don't have the cable swaying around everywhere. AWESOME benefit of the clips.
Overall: I use these earphone EVERYTIME I go to the gym. They have proven to be reliable. HIGHLY recommended that you purchase these.This is my third set of MEElectronics headphones and they are my absolute favorite headphone company to buy from mainly because the Price to performance ratio is unmatched.
I did a bunch of research on headphone sound quality back in the day which lead me to my first set of M9's and was amazed that I could get such good sound quality from a $20 headphone, I've been sold ever since.
I've had the first model (the S6) for a while now and I rarely go on a run without them, the memory wire makes them perfect for any sort of activity that would cause regular sets to possibly fall out, which can be annoying and these solve that problem very well.
The S6P came out just in time because the new smartphone features are perfect for me. My favorite thing about these is the sound quality, they have very balanced sound with a very slight scoop in the mids from what I can tell, the bass is real tight and perfect for my taste, mids are fairly flat with maybe very slight scoop and the highs are crisp and clean, perfect for EDM.
The smartphone armband that comes with it is surprisingly solid which is unexpected because good ones out there aren't exactly cheap and these come free with the set.
I don't really see the point in paying extra just to get something that's more hyped and has the same sound and possibly even fewer features, very happy with these.As to the earbuds themselves, they're great overall. Better than good, but not spectacular either.
I'm not an audiophile so I won't get into anything technical, but these earbuds hit the high's and low's just fine (anywhere in my range of musical tastes from orchestral to bass-filled tracks like dubstep). I never listen to anything louder than half of the volume capabilities because above that is just not necessary (these things get LOUD). At the highest volumes, which I tested a bit for this review, the sound distorts some. That won't be a problem for the average person though, who will probably never need music that loud.
To get these to fit properly, it will take a few minutes of tinkering the first time you wear them. Afterwards, these earbuds aren't going anywhere. They will fit anyone's ear comfortably. When I first used them, I didn't put the right ear tips in for my size ear and they would slip out some (although never actually fall due to the around-the-ear wire). I tried a couple more ear tip sizes the earbuds come with 7 or 8 pairs and haven't had this problem since in the hours I've spent running, biking, hiking, and whatever else. Also a great plus for you active lifestylers these don't slip out after sweating from exercise.
A huge benefit that I didn't even know I wanted the armband! That thing is perfect. Stays on your arm securely and fits almost any phone (best used with smart phones with a touchscreen). Also has a small pouch to put a key in.
The only downside to these earbuds is that they aren't very versatile. It's a hassle to fidget with these to put them on and take them off. For long periods of exercise, that hassle is worth it because no other earbud stays in like these when being active. But if I just want to multitask at home while listening to music or watching videos, it becomes annoying to take them on and off repeatedly.
I'd recommend to anyone who likes to listen to music while being active and just want a decent set of earbuds that won't fall out. If you're looking for some all-around decent earbuds, you might want to consider something without a wire.
