Each part is measured the same way for every model (from specs and lab test measurements where they exist) and moves up or down with what reviewers praise or criticise.

Pros

  • Punchy bass for EDM and hip-hop
  • Light, padded cups for long wear
  • Battery rarely needed charging
  • Folds up, IPX5, wired AUX option
  • ENC helps calls
  • Deep bass and a wide-sounding stage for the price
  • Calls handled well in noise

Cons

  • Plastic build feels cheap
  • Thin headband padding
  • Mids lose detail at low volume
  • Bluetooth lag still noticeable for competitive games
  • Early impressions only, no drawbacks tested
  • A sensible budget headphone for casual listening: comfy, long-lasting and bassy, if not premium-feeling.

  • DT NextOct 2024

    First impressions: strong sound and battery for very little money.
