Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Fit is on the tighter end but the pads are soft. The muffs are soft for waering for a long time.

These mid-priced headphones are the most expensive and the best quality i've ever owned. These are very portable, i fold these and stuff them in my backpack all the time. These cans become my favorite for traveling.

She has a history of going through headphones, sitting on them, losing them in the folds of the recliner then crushing them as she sits up.

Great headphones for the price, takes a hit due to plastic headband. My only real gripe is that the earpieces could stand to be a bit bigger. The only complaint i have is that it isn't the most comfortable headset.

Cons

The treble, mid-range, and bass are all vague. Product has something wrong, there is a high pitch whine whenever plugged into any device. No bass response at all and they hurt.

The only form of padding it has is a thin (rubber? These headphones almost feel as if they were designed to fit a child. While the tight fit did cut out a lot of room noise, they are so tight that they cause pain after only 2 minutes.

Quality

I have no complaints about the sound, and their audio quality is such that i am very happy with my purchase.

Good sound and they have lasted very well.

Cons:not great for larger heads (my fault for not checking sizes before buying) and the material on the underside of the headband sucks.

The bad news is that even after spending half a day outside and overnight in front of a fan, they still had a very strong chemical smell.

Price

Got these for my dad when we had a $50~ limit on christmas and he’s used them daily since.

Sound - for the price, these headphones sound fantastic.

I was tiered to buy $20 headphones that will stop working in couple months.

:)i wouldn't pay more than what these cost for another pair of headphones unless i was willing to spend hundreds.

Competitiveness

These are much better than the sharper image brand.

I replaced my sennheiser hd598 (had them since 2015) with this pair of cans.

Plusses: - sound - best in class, rivaling some sound cancelling 'phones costing more than twice as much.

These are not nearly as comfortable as the bose, especially when worn for long periods of time.
