I wasn't thrilled with the product, but it can be used.

Headphones are a little over a year old. Headphones are designed for the head of a Japanese / child / woman. For me, at the maximum, they are already at the limit of comfort (head 60-61). Half a year after the purchase, the fastenings of the metal bracket in the upper part broke, it turned out there were just 2 plastic teeth holding it. Repaired with black ties at the entry points. A year+ broke one of the swivel joints, just fell apart. The second one is already on its way, dangling, plastic…

Pros
  • Not a bad sound, at the level of the average price of wired ones (everything is individual, it seemed the middle was littered). Good soundproofing. There is enough bass in the normal mode, the additional mode is essentially for those who like to move their hair in their ears. Good ear pads. The battery lasts long enough, up to a week in daily continuous mode.
Cons
  • Very flimsy, plastic is cheap and brittle. Broke after half a year (but there is a chance to fix it).

I definitely recommend buying, I didn't notice any disadvantages.

When looking for the desired ears, for me the main criterion was the presence of bluetooth and Jack 3.5mm. At first I considered the HTX90, but they cost about 8k, and the HTX80 does not have a wire, and both models put pressure on the head, whiskey. Then I found the M500B, great headphones, better than many JBLs and Sennheisers in the same price range. I took it in order to play PUBG Mobile and listen to music on the way to work, as well as to connect it to a sound card / laptop. Before that,

Pros
  • Hold charge well Large headroom nice sound Almost no delay when playing games from the phone
Cons
  • The vibration from the bass was annoying at first IMHO, the mids are rather weak Noises and crackles

Unsuitable product, not worth the money.

Perhaps I was unlucky, but I specifically chose something from the brand in order to get quality, but it turned out, as always. In general, I could not stand it and passed it back.

Pros
  • -
Cons
  • Squeak and crackle, when the bass function is turned on, at a pause and low volume is very clearly audible, it is impossible to listen with it.

I'm disappointed with my purchase, products are no good.

Bought earphones for using with phone and computer. If everything is more or less adequate with the phone, but not without the same cod in idle time, then when working on a PC it's a living hell. For example: when watching a video, or when playing games, in order to go to telegram \ skype \ steam \ discord and other programs for audio communication, problems begin. The microphone is given priority and your standard output device "RB-500 Headphones" no longer outputs sound from the browser or…

Pros
  • They sit comfortably on the head. They look good. Nice earbuds.
Cons
  • It is not possible to fully use the computer. Constant crackling in the pauses between playback.

I expected mediocre quality, but it was a pleasant surprise.

they sit much more comfortably than the 220s, which is why they were bought. The sound is not much better. when buying compared with m300. when connected by wire, the 300s sound much bassier. according to blue-tooth, turning on the bass reactor turns the m500 headphones into mini subwoofers. but the squeak . during pauses is audible, unpleasant. the sound is slightly cleaner than the 300s. Let's summarize. They fit great and the soundproofing is great. bass when you turn on the bass reactor…

Pros
  • fit comfortably, sound good
Cons
  • squeak when you turn on the bass reactor

There are deviations, in general it is tolerable.

If you adjust the equalizer, then all frequencies sound decent, even without a wire. However, they are not suitable for every electronic music. But with hard rock, everything is a little better, as well as with rock in general. At the beginning, they squeeze the head quite noticeably. And I'm afraid if you do not have air conditioning, then in the summer you will simply die in them. The bass booster essentially only enhances the "swotting", if there is such a track, or simply adds extra…

Pros
  • Overall, they sound noticeably better than my old pioneer headphones. Plus, the lack of a wire is also good news. So I'm not very upset by giving so much money.
Cons
  • Phantom pains from the fear of breaking the wire still remained. P. S. If instead of sound there is a continuous crackle, then turn them off through the Windows 10 Settings, where the device itself was added, and reconnect. The first thing I thought of and immediately helped.

I like it! High quality but only one "fault "

"The fault" is that I can't use it when it's charging. Otherwise, the quality is just as good as high-end headphones. I have $370 Bose headphones, a pair of headphones, and $20 to $150 headphones. This one is just as good as the Bose and even better because my Bose headphones don't blue tooth and the Bose headphones don't cover my ear as comfortably as these do. I would give them 5 or even 6 stars if I can use them while charging. I have similar headphones for around $56. Works while charging…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • I really have no complaints about it, everything is fine

you knock. But management sucks.

The bass is crazy. Never have I ever heard too much bass. Of course, I immediately turned it on fully the first time I used them. I had to turn it off very quickly. Update: The control function and button layout are terrible. Unless you have pen-like pointy fingers, you'll probably have to detach them to adjust the volume or toggle them on and off without doing anything you didn't want to do. The buttons are too small. I keep changing the language when I try to turn it off. And then you need to

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • It's okay

Excellent headphones

I love these. Sound clarity, bass control. What could be improved is the bluetooth connection. If I'm not mistaken, these earbuds don't come with the latest version. Haptic feedback about the positioning of the control buttons on the headphones is another area for improvement. I often find it difficult to know which button I'm pressing without referring to the mental image in my head. While the design could have been sexier, knowing how monstrous these simple headphones are is sort of a bonus…

Pros
  • A lot of positive emotions
Cons
  • A few minuses

My head hurts

Excellent quality as always from Panasonic. The only company still making products that last forever. They have amazing quality control and superior gear on all fronts. That is why they supply all authorities with equipment. I wish they had more consumer products. The earbuds give you an amazing feeling like someone is hugging your head when you put them on for the first time. 10 minutes after the tip becomes heavy, 10 minutes after it starts to hurt, until you move the upper arch and repeat…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

big bass Good headphones for every day.

Good value for money. It is light and feels comfortable. Not bad for the wallet at all. Feels very free when you take the headphones out of the box and hold them in your hands for the first time. But once you put it on your head, it closes tight and doesn't move. I have several headphone options, but my old over-ear headphones were starting to wear out and I just wanted something with serious bass and comfort for long hours of use. where I have to block out the surrounding noise (I work from…

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

Great sound, poor design

I don't feel like writing this review as they have the best sound I've ever heard compared to Sony (wired) 7506s . The sound on them is great. It's anything else that fails and eventually forces me to return them after a few days. I'm currently trying Cowin E7s. Humorously, the deep ear pads aren't bad, and I think that's where they get most of their bass response, since "extra deep" bass doesn't exist electronically. Again, this is absolutely not for bassheads. Nothing like anchors. I'm not a…

Pros
  • High test scores for support and durability
Cons
  • Not bad but...

ANC Cancels the XBS function.

Panasonic RB-M700B, has 2 advertised functions XBS Bass (Enhanced Boomy Bass) and Active Noise Cancellation (ANC). The headphones are great and very comfortable. Unlike many bass headphones, they have an open design. "Arena. These headphones are disappointing on many counts. The ANC function is toggled on and off with the switch on the phone's right ear with all other controls. The XBS function has 4 levels. It is incorrectly advertised in the specs .XBS can be set to "Off" /Low/Mid/High. Bass…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Upgradeable
