I have very mixed feelings about these headphones, because they work well in almost every way, but there’s just one major dealbreaker for me. I’ll start with the technical stuff first, because it’s all good. These headphones work fine in terms of sound quality, at least compared to other bluetooth headphones I’ve used. At the current sale price of $29.99, they are what you would expect. They don’t disappoint, the audio is clear, the bass is right where it should be.

In terms of features and controls, everything is again fine. These boast being lightweight and sweatproof, and I can confirm that they are in fact both of those things. The weight in particular is a nice change, as some bluetooth headphones can be pretty heavy on the ears. These headphones also provide voice controls for answering calls, the buttons for pausing and adjusting volume are very responsive, and some people will prefer that the controls are on the wire, rather than being on the headphones themselves. I prefer this personally.

So let’s get to the major issue I have: they’re really not comfortable. I don’t mean that they pinch or hurt, they just don’t seem to sit well on my ears. The design is a bit different from most headphones I’ve seen, as you can see in the pictures, which I was interested to try. But unfortunately the result is a poor fit no matter what I tried. The headphones did not fit well into my ear, and the plastic arm refused to sit comfortably on my ear. They moved around a lot, they fell half-out, and I could not stop being distracted by how strange and uncomfortable they felt.

As much as these headphones work from a purely technical perspective, I could not get over how strange they felt. It’s really too bad, because that one thing really affected an otherwise good product. Maybe your ears will fit better with these headphones, but I could not make them comfortable.

Pros:

Lightweight
Sound quality is good
Controls on the wire are easier to reach
Voice controls
Colourful design


Cons:

Did not fit in my ears comfortably, ruining the product for me
