Review on 🎧 Black Marshall Mid Bluetooth Wireless On-Ear Headphone (04091742) by Mark Turner

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Breathable, lightweight, simple 1 button design, decent sound

For wireless headphones, they are solid and nicely designed. Basically, I'm giving these 5 stars because they're lightweight, comfortable/breathable, sound decent enough for the price, and have a nicely designed one-button interface. If you compare them to other decent wireless headphones like the Master & Dynamic MW60, you'll find that they have a much smaller soundstage, less noise isolation and less dynamic range. Basically, they sound good enough if you don't think too hard about how they compare to wired headphones. Because if sound is really that important to you, you buy more expensive wired headphones. The 1 button interface is really good. With that one button you can turn on/off, link, change the volume and skip tracks. Even the $550 MW60 only has volume controls. In addition, due to its light weight, you won't be burdened with a bunch of extra weight sitting on your head, which becomes tiring over time. With the earbuds popping out further, you get a "bigger" fit that puts less pressure on your ears. I wear them with glasses on all day and although my ears hurt at times, a small adjustment is enough to relieve the pressure in a specific area. Since the ear cups are not as large as other over-ear headphones, they are also more breathable and ideal for different temperatures. So, for relatively small compromises in sound quality, you get breathability, light weight, and ease of use. Also, the battery can probably last two days on a single charge, which is nice. The included audio cable has a cool design, but although hardly used, it was strung on the connected end, which is annoying. Also, it would be much better if they came in a special case with the Marshall logo on it, rather than a useless box. It would certainly have been worth the extra $20 and could have minimized wasteful packaging. Overall, unlike some other fashion brands, they don't use a lot of wasteful packaging.
