A wonderful product, its nice to use.

In general, I am satisfied with the purchase, they are definitely worth the money. Savings on the quality of materials and finishes are due to the desire to reduce the final cost of the device. I don’t consider the shortcomings described above to be critical, I just described them so that you know about these features before buying. There are no special claims to the functional qualities. Before buying, I still recommend listening to them and comparing them with analogues, since the perception of sound is different for all people and perhaps some other model is better for you. For example, from Bayerdynamic, Sinheiser or Sonya.

Pros

1. Decent sound quality for your money. The bass is felt deep, the high frequencies sound good, except that the middle of the spectrum is indistinct and piled up. In fairness, it should be noted that only multi-driver devices can boast of good frequency separation. However, if you are a fan of such genres of music, which are dominated by upper and higher frequencies, then this will not be a problem for you. 2. They sit perfectly on my head - comfortable, look stylish, pressure on the ears begins to be felt after a couple of hours of continuous listening 3. Soundproofing is mediocre (soundproofing, by the way, is good) 4. Portability (small size, foldable design, lightweight, optimal cord length when used in portable mode) 5. Optimal impedance - these headphones are perfect for both stationary and portable listening. Although, the mobile phone will not shake them to the end, but in fact they still sound good. Things are much better in conjunction with Hi-Fi players

Cons

1. Today it is already a deeply outdated model (2022). If you draw a parallel with TVs, it's like buying a plasma panel in 2022. 2. A lot of plastic in the design, which negatively affects the durability of the device, sound insulation and vibration resistance when listening at above average volume 3. Non-standard cable connector on the headphone side. Although the cable is detachable, it will be difficult to find the same replacement in stores 4. There is no adjustment for a small head 5. No balanced cable connection 6. A lot of studio sounding, which interferes with the simple enjoyment of music, since all the jambs of the recording feel like a knife on a slate board
