Average quality of the product, especially for the money.

Nine months of use. At my desk job, I listen to music or podcasts for at least 10 hours a day. And nothing has changed for the worse throughout this period.

But, the reason I took the time to write a review is because I recently acquired a volume knob. Very frail, as seen by his incessant need to adjust his shirt or hand. Hence, you can either become deaf or spend a minute wondering what caused the silence before realizing that the volume control was accidentally turned all the way down. A HyperX Cloud Revolver with built-in sound and a handy volume control (but a lousy microphone, but that's another story) could be had for an extra $3,000 to $3,000.

This issue has plagued me since the time of purchase: my interlocutor can hear the system sounds. Many different approaches I found online didn't work, though. The mic itself doesn't make much noise. If you put in an extra, not only do the system sounds become apparent, but some of the sounds are conveyed quite weirdly, giving the voice a "robotic shade." Those who have heard the tape of their voice will get it.

The fact that touching the wire can cause the sound to vanish in one ear remains a concern. However, reconnecting the device always fixed the problem. I'm hoping we can avoid a worsening of the situation.

After 9 months of use, I have no complaints about the headphones or their packaging. Neither is damaged in any way, not even the slightest bit.

Price. Yet, this seems excessive. Those using "micro for 100" can sometimes be heard much more clearly and loudly than I can with my headphones, which have a number of minor but substantial flaws.

Pros

There is a filter on the microphone, the flex in the microphone is just right, they fit snugly enough, and your ears don't hurt no matter how long you wear them. A dense box in which I now store small things; 5. They look brand new after 9 months of use; 6. They were made to a very high quality, with the exception of the volume control. What grace.

Cons

First, the volume knob, which you fiddle with all the time; 2. a quiet microphone, which can be achieved by adjusting the gain on a robotic microphone; Third, when I spoke through the microphone, my friends may hear the pek's system sounds; Fourthly, the headphones weigh a much; Fifthly, the price.
