Review on HORI Nintendo Switch Gaming Earbuds Pro with Mixer - Licensed by Nintendo, Blue by Clay Ijaz

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Another disappointing gimmick from Nintendo

If I had to describe these headphones in one word, bulky would be the first word that springs to mind. They are unsuitable for wearing to bed, exercising or just moving around the house. I really don't know what environment would you wear them in? I think during games, but they're hard on the ears. They come with large rubber hooks to hold them in your ear, but they're very uncomfortable. However, without ear hooks, they easily fall out of the ears, and the use of a microphone makes them difficult to wear without the tricks of rubber hooks. Aside from the headphones, the wire is too long and thick, I feel like I'm constantly struggling to unravel and adjust my headphones - not very comfortable for 'playing'. As for sound quality, it's painful. medium - in fact there are many cheap alternatives that offer better sound. They can look weird - that's why I tried them, but they were very disappointing. If you're looking for durable and versatile earbuds in the $35 and under price range, I recommend the Skull Candy headphones because they're slim, affordable, and have good sound. or wireless Boltune headphones. Bad product, even by Nintendo standards.

Pros
  • Brilliantly made
Cons
  • Requires a power outlet
