I bought these on a whim really... I wanted some over the ear headphones that came with the 3.5 mm aux wire and weren't really expensive and these fit the bill.
Fit and Look • They are comfortable after wearing them for hours. • They look good on. • I was planning on removing the "BERIBES" white lettering with some alcohol but couldn't. Acetone might work, but I haven't tried that yet - so if this is your plan, proceed with caution.
Functionality • The sound is OK; not the worst, not the best. • Sound leaks a lot around 40-50% of maximum volume. I wear them while alone often, so I don't mind, but if sound leaks bother you, maybe try something else. • I mostly use them wired, but bluetooth connection is good and strong and I don't feel like there's a sound quality loss while on wired vs. wireless. • Microphone is so-so... I need to really speak up when I wear them on calls, so I've been switching to my Jabra headset instead. But if you're in a bind, they do work for calls, just make sure to speak loudly and clearly so the mic actually picks up your voice. • As a non-bluetooth user, battery seems OK. I've never had to charge it after the first charge and every time I have wanted to use wireless, they've been charged. • I like really really loud music, and I don't feel like these get up to the volume level I crave - which is probably a good thing, health-wise. • They have fairly good passive noise cancellation, which I didn't know they had before purchasing. Everything seems very muted when I have them on, but not enough I can't hear anything, so this was a nice surprise.
Overall, I like them, would recommend them and would purchase again. If you're a casual user and don't want to spend too much, these will work for you.
4.0 out of 5 stars
Suprisingly OK!
