Let me start off by saying that I wear glasses. Wearing these headphones forcibly squishes the top part of my ears inside of the cups and presses my glasses frame clean into the side of my head -- very painful over extended periods of time. It's handy that they're adjustable on the headband, but there's no comfortable setting for saving my ears from being crushed. Buyers beware if you wear glasses.

Regarding connectivity, they function but have some hiccups with connectivity. I've paired these headphones up with five different Bluetooth devices. Syncing up was successful on every one, but 3/5 had a complete disconnect within an hour. Two of them refused to pair up again until I powered off the devices and waited 5 minutes. In terms of reliability, I'd have to question it and certainly wouldn't want to rely on it in a crisis situation. That being said, they're serviceable and DO work decently overall.

The cups themselves swivel, in which the only purpose it serves that I can think of is being collapseable for storage purposes. In effect the headphones can "fold" up. Nifty if you're frequently travelling or very mobile, but not so great for comfort (as described earlier) or for durability. This leads me to my next concern being that the swivels (where the cups attach to the base) are not reinforced. Too much torque or pressure applied and I'm very confident they'd break clean off -- with no hope of repair, I might add. You definitely have to be very careful with pulling them on and off.

I've worn these headphones (off and on again to rest the pain felt by my ears and the side of my head) for easily 6 hours in one stretch when I was editing audio files on my mini pc and only lost about 10% of battery when my editing session was done. Bass sounds are surprisingly quite rich with these, and while not "noise-cancelling" in the technical sense, they do have enough good aural sound inside the cups to block out a lot of environmental noise. Treble levels are good and the volume range is actually surprisingly good too -- was not expecting the volume range to be great at all so the fact it is has been is being treated as an added bonus.

Overall, I rate this product a 3/5. It's very decent for sound quality and acceptable for the price -- especially so when on sale -- but the comfort just isn't there for those of us who have worn glasses (i.e. "corrective lenses") for most of our lives and also not quite there is the overall construction quality. If these two issues were addressed properly, this manufacturer/company would have the affordable Bluetooth headphones world by the tail! I genuinely want to love them but simply cannot because of the physical harm inflicted upon me just by wearing them. Hope this review helps!
