Chosen ones! 🙂 save I must…
This are kinda overrated – I found them too sibilant (unless I used the biflange tips) and they don't stay in my ears.
I used to have an iPhone and I regretted it so I bought a S4i now own a OnePlus 2 and previously a One and controls work fine in fact just used it to pause this video
Where is the Windows Phone model ? hmm
hmm my S4i II came with a metal case
I miss these headphones, probably the best pairs I've ever had. Unfortunately they broke after one year. I replaced these with a Jays five, which is the worst I've ever had. Even the stock bud is better. All they do is fall out of your ear and hurting your ear. STAY AWAY FROM A JAYS, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
Watching this on my Nexus 4 along with my 2 year old Klipsch Image S4A II..!!!!
I've had mine for over 2 years and it's been good and still sounds great. The only problem with these are the rubber coating round the earphones peeling off. I had to use glue to hold them back in place. Anyways, these are discontinued and are replaced by the R6i and the X4i being on the higher end.
He forgot to mention the horrible cable noise that these have… They only sound good if your not moving at all
does anyone have a reciept of their original purchase i can use to fix my pair of klipsch?
Are you serious? AA doesn't know jelly bean and above can't long press? Gosh. Jelly bean and above have Google now so the app can't bypass this dumb stuff google implemented

So nice
i bought the regular s4s and i'm satisfied with em, mostly because headset controls are kind of broken in android, at least in my experiences.
These are by far the most quality sound u can get for the money. Have had the s4a and s4i for over 2 years. They have been washed lost dryed and still work super perfect. I have had beats ears, solos studios, and souls , and soul Republic. None beat these for clean sound reproduction.
These are my favorite pair of earbuds. I love the button functions, but like he says the triple click & long press never work for me (Galaxy S4). However, I haven't found a more comfortable pair of earbuds & their small size makes them ideal to wear inside of a motorcycle helmet.
I usually never put review but I think people who want to buy these headphones must know. They are great headphones for the price until they break. I bought the first revision a few years back. After about 3 month it broke at the 3.5mm plug. I bought new one the second revision and they worked wonderfully for again 4-5, month. I was lucky enough to have bought them on Amazon and they replaced it no question. Got my new one 2 months ago. I love the new flat cord and they seemed better built. But surprise surprise they broke at the base of the left ear buds. I am an active guy an go to the gym a lot, and I always store them correctly without tangling the cord. I will never buy them the support from klipsh for Canadian is handled buy an outsourcing company and a pain in the ass to deal with. So there you go. If you are active stay away. If you listen moderately I guess you should be fine. They are still a 50$ headphones that are good but worth 50$ and not more.
I just can't really deal with wired earbuds anymore lol. Go wireless!
I have the s4A I like them
will they work with sony xperia Z2 digital noise cancellation?
Great sound quality but lots of wire noise.ÂÂÂ
I have the android version, can't hear anything outside of them and the sound is outstanding.. and also I have not had any distortion.. even when tested them with my TV and cranked it to 100%, you could hear them like speakers :O incredible! still going strong, had them nearly a year now and the only wear is on the carry pouch.. the headphones are still good as new 🙂
How much
I don't like new earphone style. I still use old style earphone.
I got an S4 (II) 2 weeks ago. I could say I was very happy with it. Sound is really awesome.
:/
I'll never get Klipsch earphones again. I owned 2 pairs of the klipsch image earphones (not even for a week) and on one pair the cord severed right at the earphone, and the other pair, the earphone cracked in half. Build quality is terrible! I'll stick with Shure.
Hey man!! These are II version of S4s, they are around $70-$90 because of their flat cable design, the normal or the round cable earphones are around $40-$50. Can you test those too please cause people say they are different not only in cable design, but also in sound they produce.
my klipsch s4i (First edition) broke after around 2 years of regular usage. These ones look pretty much the same so the build quality won't be the best but the sounds is great for the price and the flat cable is definitely better than the originals.ÂÂÂ
These have amazing sound quality for the price.
I have some and they make scratching noises while walking.
I got the bluebuds x (wireless). The button controls work great on my GS3 and even my laptop. Battery lasts me a few days of normal use too. I was able to snag some from best buy for about $90 dollars.
They never fall out when I am running or on my bike either. Definitely recommend them over these klipsch in comparison. The price feels steep for earbuds, but they are without a doubt the best technology purchase I have made.
I been looking for some earbuds to replace the stock samsung buds I got for my Note 3. It just sucks that the volume control doesn't work on the S4A. I wonder what buds retain the same functionality as my stock buds but with better sound quality?
You should have just said that the difference between the S4A and the S4i is the letter they end with.
These are good but I don't recommend them, get some buds from Logitech or Sol republic for better sound and durability
Just got a pair today for my birthday! I love them so far. I got the white s4i's even though I have android. I knew functionality wouldn't really change between the 2.
Can u do Bose E1 earbuds review please.
