    The stock earphones has some sort of hooks on it. I dont know where to hook it in the ear. How do you wear them?

    From the looks of the ones I have seen, the odd shape is for better support in your ears. I believe this part would be placed towards the back of your ears. Hope this helps and as said I'm not entirely sure what yours look like. A picture would help to ensure.

    Hmm. I've never seen the BB headphones in person or in pictures. Do you have a pic/link of the specific model you're talking about?

    You can take out the hook if you don't like it and wear it normally

    I would assume that the outer black band goes in the shape of your outer ear lobe... I don't know really 0.0, but I can't see any other way you could wear them. It would help if they have L/R labels... do they?

    The bud goes in your ear, the round black piece is meant to face the back you ear and secure it in.

    These earbuds also came standard with the Q10 I got from at&t. I, also am unsure as to how to wear them. The loop is small and is designed to fit somehow within the ear. The earbuds came with two sizes of these looped varieties as well as one set without loops.

    Yes these are the ones I had pictured. The nub is for better stability in the ear when jogging or other activities.

    I was also puzzled with this strange design. I've tried to wear them somehow but it didn't work. So I went back to my old earphones.

    I think BB should include some kind of diagram of how to wear them

    You need to fold then lodge the ring into the concave part of a standard ear. (ring parts towards the back).

    They're held in well but uncomfortable after a while imo.

    Any users here care to update on how well they sound? I have Apple's EarPods and they are amazing quality for standard phone earphones.

    These are the most comfortable earphones I have ever used. And the hooks do effectively stop the buds falling off from your ear.

    Love these headphones. They aren't for audiophiles, but I have been for multiple runs and bike rides with them and I find myself forgetting they are in my ear.

    Ace.

    The hooks don't hook onto anything they are their to make sure your headset is firmly in place whilst wearing them!

    They also double up as a replacement for bungee cord harnesses.

    I find them helpful to hold them in the ear. The buds are otherwise to loose and tend to fall out.
