Marley House of Smile Jamaica in-Ear Headphones with Mic - Rasta - Multicolor

Absolutely worth it! I bought these earphones back in 2018 and they’re still working perfectly. I’ve never had any issues with them. The durability is impressive and the quality is fantastic. It’s rare to see something last this long. By 2028 it will be almost 10 years, and they’re still going strong. Definitely worth the purchase.

Hey guys, I bought these earphones 3 months back and have been using them extensively. I have listed the pros and cons as according to my experience below, PROS:- 'Absolutely amazing build quality. Extremely happy with the tangle free wire (which is indeed tangle-free). Has survived some pretty rough yanks and rough usage. 'The sound is crisp and clear. The mids nd highs are well defined. Only distorts a little once in a while at the highest volume setting. The highest volume (thought it also depends on the output device) is also very very loud and so even that's not a problem. 'Noise isolation works very well at even low volumes. At higher volumes you are practically in your own world. 'Fits in your ear very well and is very comfortable. I did not experience discomfort till up to after 7 hours of continuous usage. 'Mic is also satisfactory. No problems during calls. The person on the other end can hear clearly even if you are in a noisy environment. However the button could have been made slightly better. 'The earphones look absolutely fantastic and give out a sophisticated look. CONS:- 'Base is on the weaker side. Don't expect to hear prominent "thump thump" sounds (unless you tweak the equalizer). 'The wire is just a tad too long. Tends to get caught in a lot of places (Though this is well compensated by the tough wire) 'I personally would have preferred if it came with a straight pin and not an angular one as it's a little irritating when your phone is in the pocket. So those were the pros and cons. These earphones will suit you very well if you not an audiophile and intend to use these earphones for general usage. Watching movies and listening to bollywood songs, pop songs and genres like soft rock and classical will be a great experience in these. However if you listen to edm majorly then I suggest you go for the sennheiser cx-180. Overall, the earphones are great and are definitely value-for-price. For me the pros outweigh the cons and using these earphones has been a wonderful experience. Thank you for reading, hope this has been helpful and that you enjoyed reading my review.

Excellent value for money. Easily one of my best purchases recently from amazon. Build quality seems nice and the fact that the cord is made of nylon/fabric makes it more sturdy and tangle free. Though, looks are not very stunning in my opinion. Rather more understated/vintage kind of look. But what matters more is sound quality and reproduction. Don't expect a thumbing bass. However, quality of earphones is known from reproduction of frequencies in distortion free manner and this headphone does give you a crystal clear sound ( didn't tested at very high volumes) with added effect of Noise cancellation. So it's like listening to your own personal concert. If you plug these earphones in a phone or computer that doesn't give a great sound output, they will look like they are bad. However plug these into a mid/high range smart phone with good audio chip and you will see this earphone truly shine. No earphone will turn a bad audio into a good one. Also everyone's liking in music is subjective so you will have to "adjust" these earphones to what you like using a good equalizer app/program. I am using Audio FX on my Sony Xperia phone. That app has options for surround sound and increasing bass, selection of environment (Room, large hall etc) and equalizer. Once you adjust the audio output according to your preferences, you will love these earphones since they are good at sound reproduction as I said earlier. This earphone has made me realize the importance of good audio products. Made me re-listen to old songs, ghazals once again and Pop tracks of MJ etc. Pros: Tangle free fabric wire and it's long enough Mic included and with start/stop button Build quality - seems like they will last long if you handle them with care Effective noise cancellation even at low volumes Sound clarity over variety of music is good. Cons: Only 2 sizes of earphone's buds. L and R written on each earphone is almost invisible. No idea of service centers in India. Couldn't find them online.

1) I read many reviews about few headphone brands and still I was not confused as I was very clear and sure about my requirement and I strongly feel that it should be the case for every user. Please fine below my personal view about the product. 2) Below were the 4 primary reasons to buy this headphone. a> Fabric cord helps reduce tangles b> Microphone (mic) c> Good quality headphone instead of cheap material / cheap build quality headphone d> Price point a> I used my Samsung headphone (that came with Samsung mobile) for couple of years however now I can see that cord started cutting off. I didn't want to wait till it stops functioning. I always have to keep the headphone in my bag as it may be required at any point of time. Hence instead of buying the headphone having traditional cord I decided to go for fabric cord which will be durable as it helps reduce tangles. b> Also I wanted to buy a headphone having Microphone (mic) which is useful for general day-to-day hands free calling as well as official use like connecting the headphone to Laptop and attend WebEx meetings. c> I am satisfied with the build quality of this headphone. Good (not great) sound clarity while listening music as well as mobile calls. d> Price is bit high but still ok considering and comparing the build quality with other brands. I purchased it for Rs. 850 in sale. Generally it is available till Rs. 999. 3) As described in Product Specification, I didn't receive 3 sizes of ear tips. I received only 2, one which was already attached to headphone and one extra pair. Amazon need to correct the description. 4) In point no. 2, I described about my own requirement and justification for buying this headphone as many other users would be having the same requirement. However now I want to share some of my personal experiences. 5) If you really want a headphone having "microphone" then only go for it otherwise don't even think of it, FULL STOP. 6) Many of users says that JBL headphone [JBL C100SI In-Ear Headphones with Mic (Black) ] is very nice. Also it is rated as Best Seller and purchased by 10k+ users. Every individual has his/her own view and I respect that. I would also buy this surely as it is a good headphone along with microphone however the cord is regular one. Meaning after using again and again, getting it out from the bag/pocket and putting it back again in a bag/pocket multiple times, there are greater chances of cutting the cord. One of my friends experienced the same. 7) Let's talk about the sound quality now. The sound quality of this headphone is good; it is NOT great. ***** Headphones "without" microphone provides better sound quality than that of the headphones having microphone ***** I already have 2 headphones with me and they are: a> Sennheiser CX 180 Street II In-Ear Headphone b> Sennheiser PX 80 Over-Ear Headphone Both of these headphones doesn't have microphone. Hence I can't use it for calling purpose / attending meetings. Guys believe me, both these headphones are simply awesome. There is a sentence to describe Sennheiser headphones - "Once Sennheiser forever Sennheiser " and I am totally agreed with it as I am using it since 4+ years and fully satisfied with it. CX 180 is a regular headphone (may get for Rs 650 to Rs.850) - it can be carried out in pocket easily. [Best in Class wrt Price] PX 80 (may get for Rs. 900 to Rs.1200) - You will get a case with PX 80 though it is not very handy but still good. It is the headphone with a band on head and is very nice for doing e-learning/watching training videos/watching movies for long time. It is very light on head as well as ears, you will hardly feel that you have put it on. [Best in Class wrt Price] In online Sale, you will always get good discount on electronic products so keep an eye for that. Both these Sennheiser headphones delivers nice sound quality. 8) Conclusion: As I already mentioned that we should know our requirement before buying any product. If you need "headphone with microphone" and are concerned about durability then only go for the headphone "House of Marley Smile Jamaica EM-JE041-SB In-Ear Headphones with Mic (Black)". I purchased it because of microphone, tangle free cord and good brand specially for calling and rarely for music.

I was a regular user of Skullcandy Inkd 2 headphones for the past 3 years and its plastic earphones broke into two pieces when I slept on it for one whole night!! Then I was without an earphone for 2 months and that's when this pair of earphones got my attention on Amazon. It was priced similar to that of the price of a pair of Skullcandy Inkd 2 headphones that was available two years before!! I really liked the woody earphones and robust materials used in this one. The cable is quite sturdy and it feels good in hands and is tangle resistant!! I have already slept on this pair and luckily nothing happend to it!! Though, I have stopped doing that as I want to use it regularly at least for another three years!! The headphones sound similar to Sennheiser CX 180 and Skullcandy Inkd 2. I enjoy it's crisp sound and adequate bass!! The ear buds are of good quality but my ears get irritated after one hour of continuous use. I cannot blame completely on this earphones for that because whichever ear buds I have used, it has caused irritation to my ears after prolonged use. I really like and enjoy my House of Marley Smile Jamaica earphones and completely recommend it as a normal person who is not an audiophile and enjoys music during leisure time and before sleep!!

I’m a repeat customer after 3 odd years since my first HoM Smile Jamaica broke. No fault of the product, it has been through some rough tumbles. Even now, the only problem is the one earphone doesn’t work, everything else – 1 earphone, mic and button work flawlessly. Great sounding headphones and great value for money. The braided cables mean it won’t ever fail on you unlike the others I’ve had. It is not proper audiophile range I guess, I really haven’t had Shure’s or the like to compare because I don’t splurge on earphones. The build quality is excellent and the earphones are really made of wood. The material has slightly changed this iteration for the better – it feels a lot more sturdier. The cable now feels slightly less flexible but nothing that gets in your way. They also draw looks and kind comments from people around. I’ve had numerous questions from colleagues and ever since then I’ve lost the exclusivity of the brand at my workplace. Oh well. If you are looking for a snazzy looking pair of headphones that don’t cost a lot, I would definitely recommend these. They are durable and give you a decent soundstage that isn’t too bassy or hissy. Granted it isn’t going to blow your mind when it comes to sound, but at this price, it’s difficult to not justify the buy.

Bought this after going through many reviews, thought would follow my heart to buy this and well a good purchase I must say ! Specifically delivered by Amazon : I mean I had to wait in office till 8pm ...bcz that's the time Amazon said it will arrive so yeah :p Coming on to the product : Had heard mixed reviews like bass bloated up or bass not atall there or things like clarity isn't good but personally I would like to tell u guys that as a musician myself I love this piece of earphones ! Obviously well known for its build quality which I would not say much more about because under this price range ..it's practically the best built !! Brilliant cable with nice L Jack along with the premium wooden ear pieces , the mic too nicely placed and works perfect Sound quality: After listening to music in several conditions and environment I would like to say that they are amazing ... The clarity on this is to die for ... U hear the voice just as it should be ... The instruments are clear enough for you to find out it's individual riffs and solos and coming to the bass , some ppl may find it low but I would say it's apt for in ear hearing as you don't want to damage your ear drums with bass heavy earphones .. These make you listen to each bass guitar note along with that heavy bass drum .. I love the way the sound quality is ! One bad part is though at high volume ( we are talking about 85-100% ) the sound tends to peak and muffle but do you really want to listen to music at such high levels that too in ear !? On the other hand these cancll out any noise around at even 55-75% volume levels and that's exactly which should be your higher limit in an In-ear earpiece So yeha go ahead and buy this off ! Amazing product .. Hope it lasts long as there is no warranty/guarantee in India yet

good build quality...little less bass Edit:- I am writing this review after 1 year and 1 month of use. The sound quality is good but the bass is less. The build quality is good. The earpods are made of wood and give premium feel. The cables are braided but that doesn't make the earphones not tangled, its a myth. Keep your earphones properly in a case and they wouldn't tangle. I kept them in a hard case with my pendrive and a few more small cables and never got tangled. The eartips come in 2 sizes, small and medium and they are good quality. I would fidget with them all the time and they didn't tear despite being thin. The noise cancellation is passive and it is ok. In a very noisy street you can plug these and keep music volume like at 13 and you won't here anything of outside till you remove the earphones Today after 1year 1month and 14days one of the earpod stopped working. I bought these earphones will work like 1 and half year or so, but i kept in mind my slightly more rough use. I bought these for 969₹ in sale. Personally I feel these are pretty good earphones, these look cool and feel premium. I would suggest these to anyone who wouldn't mind changing their earphones in every 1 and half year or so as these might themselves last that long. My overall experience was pretty good with them but I wouldn't pay more than 1000bucks for them.
