I tested them and they don't even sound that great. For the price, there are a lot of WAY better options out there.
But that is the case with many Apple products.
Maybe I'm not the most discerning listener, but I got a $60 pair of Skullcandy wireless noise cancelling earbuds and my only problem with them is that you have to hold them down to skip a track rather than just push once (that turns off noise canceling), which is bad UI, but other than that, couldn't be happier.
If you're happy with them, then it's a good pair of headphones for you! I think the best indicator is that if you can listen to them for long sessions on end, then it's good stuff. If they pinch, itch, if the sound makes you restless or if you feel like taking them off after an album, then it's not a good match.
