Excellent Sound Quality – HIghly Recommended
Very good sound as you would expect from Sony (particularly good bass). Using it for listening to music, You-Tube, and audio-books on my phone and sound is crystal clear. The headphones do not drown out outside sounds if the volume is low-to-medium, but that’s only if the outside sound is fairly loud/fairly close-by, and I guess that would happen with most headphones around this price-range. I have an Android phone with no earphone jack, so I also bought a ‘Headphone Earphone Adaptor USB Type C to 3.5mm Jack’ from Amazon from ‘La Brodee Store’ for £4.99. The headphone length of wire is about 1.14m (45 inches) from end tip of jack to the earphones, so ok for using with a phone or a Sony Walkman (remember those !), or a laptop/pc monitor, but probably not long enough for watching TV/gaming (you would need some kind of extended). I bought the blue colour headphones which look very smart. The head-band and ear-muffs are comfortable and has a good range of adjustment. Look carefully at the back of each head-set and you will see ‘L’ and ‘R’ marked to denote which ear-muff is for left and which is for right. The folding mechanism is good although as long as you treat with care and have good light. Volume is controlled from whichever device you are using and not the headphones themselves, and the headphones do not have a micro-phone. All-in-all really good value smart headphones with very good sound.

Well-designed and good value for money
As a family with young children it is vital to have a good and diverse selection of headphones – each of us is frequently connected to an electronic device and either shouldnât disturb the others or requires some peace and quiet. Now our oldest needed a wired headset to take to school and potentially keep it there in her locker, so we simply had to add another one. This Sony headset perfectly filled the need at a very friendly price.Being black it is quite neutral, it is light weight, wears comfortably can be folded together rather neatly. The headband is fairly broad and not as flimsy as you would often see with cheap headsets, so this will survive rough handling in schoolbags. The sound quality is good enough for our purposes; online education, video calls and the occasional podcast. If yo would use it to listen to music you will not be disappointed; the bass is fine, the different sounds are highly distinguishable. Though the headset lacks any controls for bass or volume, nor does it include a micro phone. It does however claim to have active noise cancelling, however I found it fairly ineffective (compared to my super-upscale Bose headset (that has noise cancelling that isnât even perfect) – I could still my wifeâs usual rant directed at me through it , way too clear.All in all this is a very good value, no frill headset. Surprised by the price / quality actually. Would recommend.

Excellent
I’ve never really got along with in ear headphones but recently I’ve increasingly found myself in a position where headphones would have come in handy. I looked around and after a bit of consideration and looking at a few reviews I decided to spend a little more than I initially intended on these.They arrived quickly and I have to say that all in all I’m really impressed. They look fantastic, they’re a great colour and look far more expensive than they actually are. Build quality seems very good too although they do feel a little plasticky but that’s to be expected. I don’t find any headphones particularly comfortable to be honest but these are the most comfortable set of headphones I’ve ever worn although they’re also the most expensive I’ve ever bought despite still being fairly cheap.What I’m really impressed by though is the sound quality. The sound quality is excellent and far better than I had expected. Also really good is that even on a fairly high volume they don’t disturb my partner so they appear to leak little to no sound at all.All in all very happy with them, 3/5 for comfort (although that’s most likely just me), 4/5 for quality and 5/5 for looks and sound quality.

Ideal for My Needs
I wanted a pair of decent quality on-ear headphones for use with online tutoring sessions and monitoring sound recordings. I do have a pair of over-ear headphones, but I find them uncomfortable even after a short period of use.The set comprises a couple of good sized phones – large drivers give decent sound. The headband is plastic and the phone swivels inward so that the whole set can lie flat. They are independently left and right adjustable so you can get them perfectly fitted.In use, they are very good for what I want. The phones are comfortable – an online tutoring session of over an hour without any discomfort. The sound quality is pretty decent, whether it is from talking, listening to music, or watching videos – a good tonal range and channel separation. If you wanted the full audiophile HiFi experience you would be buying super top-end over-ear headphones, not these. These headphones tick all my boxes, with only a slight caveat. I donât like overly long cables and this one is not too long. However, when sitting at my computer with the audio jack at the back, if I lean back in my chair, or swivel, I am conscious that the cable is short. I have bought an extension cable for using the headphones at my desk. For out-and-about work with sound recording and monitoring, the cable length is ideal.All told a great set of headphones for my purposes.

Comode, si sente bene, per il prezzo non ci si puo lamentare di nulla, stranamente un po’ più pesanti di quanto ci si aspetti, nel complesso ottimo acquisto
