The headphones that came bundled with my W800i sound great but the left ear plug keeps falling out. Looking at them the right plug has more than twice the length of cable than the left side. So it must be the short left hand side cable that is causing the problem. There is a cable splitter but it can't be slid up and down the cable to adjust the length of each side.

Are mine dodgy or are they all made with a right cable more than twice as long as the left? If so why? Me no understand!

Cheers.

put the left one in your ear then loop the right one round the back of your head and then into your other ear.. this should sort the problem, this allows the handfree mic to sway to one side of your mouth rather than directly in the middle. [addsig]

Do I have a faulty W800i earphones because I think the bundled earphones are terrible (weak bass, unless I use MEGABASS). My other (cheap) regular earphone ($4.80) sounds much better.

I thought the microphone ended up to far down when using the headset provided with the W800i so I modified them...

Did put the cable in a loop then taped them in place.
