Happy Saturday!
It’s time for a headphone review and giveaway!
I’m excited to share you with you my thoughts on the 2XL family of headphones and ear buds. The products are stylish and affordable. And these products also stand out to me because they help ward off bacterial infections you can easily get from normal headphones and ear buds because they hang on the ear instead of having to stuff the ear pieces all the way in the ear.
The 2XL headphone samples that I had the pleasure of trying were very comfortable and the sound is really good. It took me some time to get used to the new hanging ear buds but once I got the hang of it, it was smooth sailing.
I was sent the GROOVE, SPOKE and RATIO headphones and ear buds to sample and I really like them all. My top choice at this time is the SPOKE but once I get more used to the GROOVE, I think that one will fast become my favorite. I really want to try the 4 CORNERS set of headphones because I have always liked that type of headphone set up.
Overall, I really am very happy with the 2XL products and will definitely recommend them to others. Thank you Lindsey for the opportunity to review these products.

One last quick note:
According to Online Journal of Health and Allied Sciences, harmful bacteria was found on 92 per cent of ear swabs taken from people who regularly shared their earphones with friends, compared with only eight per cent of those who shared less frequently.
There’s some food for thought! Yikes!

I have never worn earbuds – for just that reason! They totally gross me out! Especially someone else’s – one time my brother, who is usually the more ‘Type A’ of the two of us – handed me his ear bud to talk to someone on the phone. I was floored. He was floored I was floored. Blech!
My boys will hand me theirs to carry (into the house after I’ve dropped them off at school) and it just totally grosses me out to even carry them! Yech!
So that’s pretty cool they’ve designed these earbuds with germs in mind, though I still prefer the old style. I like the 4 Corners Bunny Headphone Set.
Cool contest! 🙂

I think I would really enjoy trying the Groove hanger buds. Headphones bug me and I hate that ear buds bring the sounds right inside my hear. The Groove looks like a good compromise!

Oohhh…Bummer! I am in Australia, so I am out of the running. 😉
I like the Spoke Nuevo Sonido – they look small and easy to use. Plus I like the color.
Great contest and nice website!
Good luck to everyone!

I have got to say these earbuds look really good. I have yet to find a pair I like. I like that these are able to hang on the ear. Others I have tried just fall out.
I am partial to the GROOVE Hanger Bud Wrecking Ball.
I made a mistake in my first post angie. Please delete that one! Thanks.

I would actually choose the giveaway ones- Pink/White GROOVE Hanger Bud Bunny. Regular earbuds always fall out of my ears for some reason, so the Groove style looks great. Thanks for the great giveaway!
Valerie says
I like the Four Corners Snake Eyes in black. Thanks!

Thanks for providing me with this link Angie so I could read your review about these earbuds. I ended up spending $10.00 at Wal-Mart yesterday on a pair but I think they are going back so I can exchange them for something like you’ve reviewed here.

You’re quite welcome Tishia! A good pair of headphones is worth it to me because I have to have my music. I would ultimately like to have an old style pair that goes over your head but they probably wouldn’t stay on LOL Thanks for checking them out.
