Pros/Cons

It's about nine months now that I have been using these headphones and the time to summarize my thoughts on these.

Pros:

  1. Very very comfortable. I just sit around all day while wearing them.
  2. The inner cup size is big enough that it encompasses my big ears.
  3. I drop these accidentally about ten times a week and nothing has became a problem
  4. V sound signature(Boosted Bass, Low Mids, Boosted Terble) makes it a fun listen.
  5. Headband is self-adjusting and adjusts to the wearer's head. Very light headphones also.

Neutral:

  1. Very long wire so I can get up and move a bit around the laptop if required. Also would be more than enough if plugged into a PC that's tucked away somewhere.
  2. Sound might be hit and miss for many people. It's not as good as similarly priced OneOdio headphones but they are still good, just not great. However OneOdio do tend to change the actual audio to appeal more. These headphones are more true to the real audio which might not be for everyone.

Cons:

  1. V shaped sound makes it not good for studio work. Vocal and instruments may sound distant.
  2. Sound thing from above might be con for someone.
