Yes, I know they look just like the EP630's, which is why I was interested in them. The difference is, they dont attempt to "fake" anything, because at least they dont claim to be ep630s! The feedback I was getting on the fake ep630's was inconsistent, and did not inspire me with confidence. The feedback on the i-voda's, although harder to find, was more consistent and gave me the impression that buying them would be a bit less of a risk than fake ep630's. Particularly after I researched the company that makes them (OVC) and found that they make many different quality earbuds, have a pretty good factory setup, are known for quality knockoffs of at least -some- well known brands (including creative, obviously). This company makes products for well known brands, and made the buds for V-Moda's "Vibes" product, wich is a very well rated $100US earbud model. So $16 for their fake ep630's is to me, not that much of a gamble.
