$9 USD

Requirements: Ears. iPod or iPhone earbuds.

 

Strengths: Keep earbuds in place.


Weaknesses: None found.

Introduction

BudFits will ensure your iPod earbuds won't fall out during even the most demanding physical activities while maximizing your comfort by eliminating the need to wedge the earbuds in your ear canals.

 

 

My Experience

With the design awards that Apple has garnered in the past one has to wonder why they screw up little things like earphones, multi-button mice and keyboards, but they do.

 

Enter, stage right, Innovelis with a solution to at least one of those design faux pauxs – with BudFits.

 

Made in Red China, sold via Amazon.com, these devices come in 3 colors; clear, white or black. Assuming you have ears, BudFits will fit over them and hold the earbuds in place.

 

 

 

Conclusion

 

I guess what I could say is that BudFits will grow on you as the earbuds sprout out of your ear canals. Come up with your own jokes, but why didn't Apple come up with this first?

 

Recommendation

 

If you are still using Apple's Earbuds and want to get away from having to expect your earlobes (again assuming you have those) to do all the work, get these. I never could "stuff or wedge earbuds into my ear canals" anyway. Now I don't have to try.
