Great sound and portable

Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2018

I am loving these headphones. The sound is so clear and you can feel the bass. Great for listening to music. They are comfortable to wear, even with glasses on. I love that they fold up and have a nice storage bag to transport them in. The battery life is long lasting. I havent found any complaints yet. Well worth the cost and I would recommend to friends.

not good for anyone sensitive to pressure

Reviewed in the United States on May 17, 2020

To be upfront, these are nice headphones. They sound quality and set up convenience is good for the price point.

BUT they squeezed my head very hard... and I have a small head. It's an issue I've never encountered with headphones before, even with comparably sized headphones from other brands. I can only stand wearing them for about half an hour before my head feels like it's being pinched.
I have sensory processing issues and a tendency to get headaches, so this made them completely unusable to me.

These were recommended to me by a friend, so they certainly must work for some people.
If these happen to fit your head really well, it might not be a bad buy. But if you're used to larger, more comfortable headphones or much smaller earbuds... these will either require an adjustment period or might be a total waste of time.

Great sound and very comfortable

These headphones have a lot going for them. They feel very premium and durable. They are mostly plastic but it is a very durable and flexible plastic that does not worry me in the slightest. They look quite good on the head as well, and don’t add too much width to your head which many people with like. For on ear headphones, these are very comfortable. The ear pads are memory foam, and only become uncomfortable after a few hours of use. The battery life is also incredible. 35 hours! I can use these every day for almost two weeks without having to charge them. Besides these tidbits, the sound is actually the best part of these. These have a very balanced sound for the most part, but a slight emphasis on the bass. The bass is definitely not overkill though, it just adds a bit of oomph to my music. These are very detailed for a pair of Bluetooth headphones as well. Spacing is quite good and the soundstage, while not being very wide, still allows me to pick out individual instruments all around. I really dig these headphones. They seem like a great option if your planning on buying something like the beats solo 3’s but you don’t want a pair of headphones that everyone else has.

These are $150 headphones if you guy through the manufacturer. Great audio company. Automatically pause when you take headphones off. Easy to connect. Good battery life.

This is the first bluetooth audio device that has yet to have blackouts. I also wouldn't trust the other review regarding the bass. Maybe it is if you like bass drenched music. If you listen to music with acoustic instruments, the sounds is great. Balanced and detailed. Not a booming bass. It might be a matter of tastes, I don't really care for over-bassed music. If you are like that, then you will find the sounds very balanced and clean.

It's medium sized so it's neither lacking nor bogus. The look and feel are good too. Controls are fine. Buy it

Just adequate.

These are just adequate to me. The bass response is pretty weak, but they are easy to set up and operate.

lightweight, good sound, long battery, stays connected

lightweight, good sound, long battery, stays connected. Comfortable for most of the time. Wear after 6+ hours a little tight, but that would be with any headphones you wear that long. Great for small heads/ears. I have it on the smaller adjustment and it's perfect.

A good bargain headphone!

Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2020

Pretty good for the price. Sounds is clear and set up is very simple. Only one negative is you can feel them on your ears and head. Not the most comfortable but for the price, still a bargain.
