“These earphones have been specifically designed for Android devices, and are perfect for when you’re lounging around in the sun. The slick black and silver design looks the part, and the cord comes with a decent microphone so you can take calls. The noise-cancelling aspect is great, and though they aren’t the cheapest around, you’re certainly paying for quality.”

"Music sounded rich on these earbuds. Calls came across loud and clear, but people on the other end heard some background noise. Like the other models here, the S4As have a microphone on the cable. They come with three sets of tips in different sizes and a cable remote that you can customize with an included app."

“I found the sound to be truly noise-isolating, as the company advertises…While I would characterize the sound as powerful, I would not say that it is harsh. Music was crisp, encompassing and enjoyable...Living in a world where most gadgets are “Made for iPhone,” it is refreshing to see a product developed for the many Android phone users out there.”

"Car it Ear-droid. The in-line volume controls, mike and free smart-phone app for these earbuds were designed specifically for Android users. And the oval ear tips remain some of the comfiest in the business."

"The Klipsch Image S4A delivered brilliant performance in our tests and provides excellent acoustic performance for in-ear headphones in this price-range. Fun is clearly in the foreground with the S4A: excellent, broad dynamics, level accuracy, and a rich bass make for a lively and spirited sound. In combination with an Android smartphone, the Klipsch headphones score as a headset with very good speech intelligibility. Operation with the 1-button remote control works well, even if the S4’s remote control with 3 buttons is a bit easier and more comfortable. Those who want to be mobile and sometimes use their smartphone as a music player can safely consider these headphones, as the investment of about 100 EUR is over after the first sound from the Klipsch headphones. Even the Android version earns our Reference-rating."

"The Klipsch S4is are an in-ear set of headphones that offer exceptional sound quality, if at a premium price point. You also get full iPod or iPhone controls thanks to an in-line remote control, which doubles up as a button for answering and hanging up calls on the iPhone. A cracking set of earphones."

"...We can't get enough of the soft, super comfortable design, nor the effortless seal. It’s an uncommonly good arrangement, and we had no problems fitting the ear buds to our biogenetically picky outer ears...The headphones are high-quality, very well-built, and overall, sound fantastic..."

Andoid Police review the Image S4A (2011-12-21 00:00:00)
by David Ruddock

“I love wearing the Klipsch S4A's. They are, hands down, the most comfortable in-ear headphones I have ever worn.”

“For $100, the S4A's are a difficult product to overlook in any serious search for a high-end Android headset, and are worthy of consideration even for those looking to spend a little more on their next pair of headphones.”

CNET's Klipsch S4A review (2011-11-29 00:00:00)
by Justin Yu

The bottom line: Klipsch's ultracomfortable, noise-isolating ear tips are just one of the reasons I love and recommend the S4-series headphones. If you're an Android user shopping for a new pair of earbuds, the Image S4A headphones are definitely worth the $99.

"...Klipsch is not only the first but, for the time being, also the only company to provide Android users with this kind of music player and phone control in an earphone product. That fact on its own merits the S4A a good score but add to it the fact that the Image S4A actually sound really good, and you've got a winning product on your hands. We gladly recommend the Klipsch Image S4A."
