Applications:

The Ultimate Ears UE500vi represents yet another achievement in the in-ear headset category by this typically pro-audio oriented manufacturer. Offering significantly more refined bass control versus the entry-level UE350vi, the UE500vi brings very good clarity and 'up-front' definition of musical detail and speech to your iPhone listening experience. Although perhaps slightly rollled-off in the top-most highs for certain audiophiles, the UE500vi silky overall presence also ensures no jarring harshness in the upper treble for a smooth, sonically pleasing musical tonality. The burnished mids/highs and evenly balanced tone is great-sounding with any musical genre or recording type and dovetails effortlessly with iPhone, iPad, or iTouch with no amplifier needed. Excellent speech/voice intelligibility allows easy hands-free chat with your favorite Apple player of choice. At this nice price, we feel UE may have a contender for one of the top candidates in the popular under-$80 in-ear headset category.

The Ultimate Ears UE500vi in-ear headset headphones come from a long line of high-quality in-ear designs dating back to the pioneering UE 'Super.Fi' models back in the early 2000s. Now completely updated by Logitech with all the latest technological in-ear monitor advancements like weightless rapid-response neodymium driver arrays, extra-tough Kevlar cord reinforcement and microphone + 3-button controller, the durable build construction of the UE 500vi seems bomb-proof to withstand non-stop portable listening out and about. The slightly-rounded, small flat-back earpiece on the UE500vi makes it useable for under-helmet wear while also ideal for sleeping or laying out without protuding earpieces ruining your bliss. The UE500vi package includes six pairs of proprietary eartip sets in silicone and foam materials, amongst the best selection of 'universal fit' ear sleeves offered by any in-ear manufacturer. The 2-year free manufacturer's 'repair or replace' service warranty remains in place only with your HeadRoom authorized Logitech/UE dealer purchase receipt.
