" ... The first problem was that my earbuds from my other earphones didn't fit so I had to use the inferior earbuds they came with, and buying earbuds in this size is challenging to say the least. ... The second problem was that the earbuds kept popping off in my ear when I took the earphones off, meaning I had to pluck them out with tweezers or they may pop off and fall somewhere forcing me to hunt them down, this happened often until I finally got sick of it and super glued them on. ...
