The headphones are good for the price

I bought these for $4 when I was looking for a pair of good quality headphones. ADVANTAGES: Made of aluminium. The sound was decent at low to medium levels and became tighter and more choppy when the volume was cranked to the max. Used it primarily when working with noisy machines and blocked out the noise enough to hear them at a medium volume. pretty comfortable. Used them 9 hours a day with no pain in ears (medium kidneys). Comes in a nice case with 3 pairs of ear tips which should cost $4 alone. CONS: The left earbud broke 1 month after using it. You pay for what you get. When dismantling the cabin, I found that one of the solder joints was broken. They fixed it and a month later there was a weak solder joint in the headphone jack and the right contact was either cut or disconnected. A new plug comes in the mail (yes I know my wife has been yelling at me for trying to fix $4 headphones but I can't help it). This product has a bad solder joint with numerous breakages within 2 months of regular daily use. Someone with no experience fixing small electronics would have to throw them away and be left with a cute case for their next set of earbuds. GENERAL: They sounded good, blocked out most of my noisy environment, were comfortable, came with good accessories but lasted 1 month before breaking. 4 stars for the super low price (not much now at $6) and exceeds some expectations for a $4 product.

Pros
  • A dream come true
Cons
  • Go to old
