Ive had many bad experiences with aux cords in the last two years (they constantly break/stop working). There was absolutely no way that is truly the best option across the board for all the relevant phone companies. The leather proved fine when showering and would dry out overnight under a fan. All pros, no cons. It is dissapointing that the ones I bought directly from Amazon. Id say theyre great for those taking lessons and not wanting to have to borrow headphones all the time, while not costing a grand. Great flipflop when it arrived and used for 6 weekends before it came apart. Comes with a top and bottom piece that snap on (no adhesive needed) and its easy to remove without feeling like you are going to scratch or ruin your case. Some things are just better served by physical switches and buttons, and Jabra got the E85hs controls mostly right. Just wish black would come in stock again.
