Review: H2O Audio Surge Contact

 

Like other products from H2O Audio, these Surge Contact earbuds are waterproof. Yes, even the microphone -- perfect for when you just have to take...

Even without the waterproofing, has better-than-average sound. Buds stay put while active

Compatibility is the last major thing worth mentioning. Thanks to the special shape of the headphone plug, which is designed to fit into H2O's waterproof cases and armband, Surge is not compatible out of the box with the original iPhone, but can be...
