Introduction

I picked up a pair of Sony earbuds, model MDR-EX15ap, over a year ago. They were on sale for about $5, and I couldn't resist the deal. While these earbuds are not great, they aren't terrible either. I keep them in the car as an emergency backup pair of headphones when I'm in a study session mood.

 

Section II

Sub-Models

From my research, I found there are two sub-models of the EX15s:

• →AP — Android compatible
• →LP — Standard version

The 'AP' designation likely refers to the single push button on the in-line microphone, which is used for on/off functionality during phone calls or music playback.
