Revainrating 2 out of 5

Kord thinks it's a ballerina or something. "

Update: So I bought it on 9/23/2018 and today 6/6/2020 the cable has finally turned to dust. Literally broke in half .Hasn't done anything until now except sit at his desk and talk to him on the phone but apparently that was asking too much.I even have a stand for it.rest in peace.Now I use it for work almost every day so it has been very heavily used but I still expect this type of damage to last for years rather than months.I am sitting in a stationary position not twisting in my chair or jumping but the cord keeps getting twisted into something, something like these kids wrap laces that don't need to be tied and therefore the rubber sleeve breaks and the internal wires wear out and become exposed.I bought this because it was an old dynex model, the ic h came closest (which I replaced for worn out cables for the same reasons, but they lasted years longer). Unfortunately, you can't really compare them. Suitable for the little ones (it's listed for educational purposes but 12th graders have adult sized heads, don't they?). They're not very comfortable with prolonged use, so I wouldn't recommend them for anything that requires you to wear them for a long period of time. I really have no complaints about the sound quality, but it's not the best either (about what you'd expect for the price tag).

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Useless features
