Headphones Reviews

These head phones sound good but are not very comfy to wear. Specially *not* for people with glasses.

I guess I just prefer the headphones that stick in your ear. I had the aiwa swoops that do that and loved them. They broke and I thought I'd try these. I guess I might have to get used to them yet, but do you see the little plastic arcs above the actual earphones? You're supposed to (I think) put that on your ear like glasses, but my ear is pinched uncomfortably between that and the headphone. Maybe I have oddly shaped ears.

They sound good...Look amazing...and are comfortable..i dont know what that last reviewer was talking about any one can wear these....just put the swoops in back of your ear and if you have glasses just put the head phones on then put ur glasses on AFTER you have them on it feels fine...i wear glasses and i listen to my cd player e v e r y d a y~trust me this is a good buy

I bought these because I have owned Aiwa earbud-style headphones in the past, and been extremely happy with them, even so far as to prefer them to any other brand, including Sony.

This pair turned out to be an almost complete disappointment. To be sure, the sound quality is fantastic; the treble is nice and high, the bass is spectacular for 'phones so small...

Unfortunately, the sound quality is not so good as to make up for the major problem with the 'phones: a glaring design flaw. The headphones do not come with earpads, nor do they have a soft rubber coating to keep them planted in your ears. They're made entirely of HARD PLASTIC. Not only do they not stay put, but, kept in your ears long enough, it's enough to cause severe pain.

It's nigh on impossible to find just replacement earpads, without having to buy a new set of headphones.

If you already have a set of earbuds with earpads you can re-use, these may not be such a bad replacement. But if you want something comfortable and ready-to-use right out of the box, look elsewhere.

Two stars, and only that because of the good sound quality.

the headphones are fine for adults, but for kids they are too big to stay in their ears and they prob need the ones on a band

It is very comfortable and fits in my hear like no other ear phones, I believe they have a model that has a volume control for it but its hard to find and now this exact model is hard to find and only available through amazon (which is pritty stupid)

I bought 2 of these along with the Cobra FRS radios so that my wife and I could drive our own cars across country and still communicate. The radios worked fine, but the headsets were an absolute waste of money. First off, the batterys wouldn't seat properly, so sometimes they worked, but sometimes they didn't. Then there was the trouble with getting the vox and volume settings set properly that others have complained about. Plus, the mikes won't stay where you put them. So we threw them in the back seats, and used our radios as handhelds all the way from San Diego to North Carolina.

This is a nice product. It has many good features and given it were a little better put together it would be a perfect product.

The problems I found with the product are as follows:

1) The VOX is useful but doesn't always work as one would hope. It has a tendency to pick up every little sound and if you turn down the sensitivity then the VOX won't pick up every word so you have choppy transmissions. Examples Too High : "(air from walking, breathing) Hey this is so-and-so and I am back at camp. (more air from walking, breathing) BLEEP(end of transmission signal) (more breathing and air)" Too Low : "This BLEEP so-and-so BLEEP camp BLEEP" It might be possible to find a perfect setting, but I sure haven't found it yet and I have been playing around with them.

2) The PTT button is kind of sensitive. When I use the PTT (which is always since VOX would pick up any and every paintball shot) the button is very similar to the buttons on my FRS-100 because they have to be pushed hard and right in the center. Press any bit off of the center of the button and you will get choppy transmission similar to the ones in the VOX example.

Don't get me wrong, they are kinda nice and if you are willing to put up with the PTT button and the VOX, they are wonderful.

I used it when i was hunting for ducks in NY, it worked great. The sound was good and i could walk without it moving. It is a hassle to have to pick up the radio so this is a great product for people like me( lazy).

The sound quality of the Earhugger headset is fine; I hear things fine through it, and whoever I'm talking to can (usually) hear me clearly. But it feels really "flimsy" when I'm wearing it; as if it's going to fall off much of the time. And because it doesn't go on that securely (despite my having an average-sized ear), I have to wrestle a lot with the boom microphone to get it in a good position, each time I put it on.

Once you get it on and position it properly, and if you don't move around much (you can't recline or lay on your back, for example, without it feeling like it'll fall off), it's comfortable and the sound is good. But it's a little too much work to get there . . . I've found far better headsets since buying this one.

It was really a nice one.I suugest everyone to buy this headphones because of the following reasons,Its 2 cheap to afford, Its 2 light to carry,its 2 fancy to wear. bye ur stuff on amazon. Mirza Ahmed WI USA

In searching for a headset to overcome my bad soundcard for voice recognition, this is the only one that worked. And it is the most comfortable one I've used too!

what the hell does your statement have to do with a review for headphones, and Im guessing you ment rapper not raper, although i wouldnt be suprised.

The headphones look pretty neat and have a cool volume control, but they feel cheaply built, and the sound quality isn't that great. It's what you would expect for headphones around 20 bucks.

Nas is a good raper he got some good rimes i would like to liset to Nas with these head phones, BUT THEY'RE NOT AVAILABLE!

I purchased these at CompUSA to help block the ambient noise during frequent air travel over the past year. The noise-cancelling feature works surprisingly well, but the overall sound quality is inferior to several other brands of non noise-cancelling headphones I've had in the past. They are especially poor at handling solid, deep bass riffs; after a couple of sessions a buzz developed in the low frequency range, even though the headphones had never been used with anything but a laptop computer. If you're looking for something that will blank ambient noise well and you're not too picky about sound quality, these are probably worth the $$s. If sound quality is a major concern, you'll be unhappy with this product.

When I saw the Targus headphones on sale I couldn't help but buy a set to see how it sounded. I used Boise's ComfortQuiet before, and the Targus's noise canceling function works surprisingly well. The headset is also comfortable and folds easily for storage and transport. But the sound quality is, at best, mediocre, with insufficient bass and sounding rather flat compared to cheaper earphones from Aiwa or Koss. If you find it at a bargain-basement price you may want to get it for the next flight, otherwise it just ain't worth fifty bucks.

I wouldn't pay 300 $ for Bose so when I saw this at Best Buy for 66$ I gave it a shot. I didn't use them yet on a flight, but with 3 computers working, a dishwasher 20 feet from me and the furnace going full speed I was amazed to see how well the noise cancelling function works. They don't make total silence, but they diminish the ambient sound significantly. I have a noisy heater in the bathroom (blows hot air), it works with that as well. They allow you to have a very decent conversation, they wouldn't interfere with that, just reduce the ambient sound, I like that as well. It would take a little bit for you to get use to wearing them, but cought on work on my computer I could spend 3 hours in a relatively quiet environment and without any discomfort. They look nice, they are not too heavy. I don''t like that the wire only has 3 feet (or so), so they would need an extension if you use it with anything else than a walkman. I really don't have much experience with headphones so I wouldn't make any comments about the quality of the sound. The noise cancelling function also seems to cause some amplification of the sound. If you turn it off, you might be dissapointed by the maximum volume level.
I like them enough that I would get another pair, but this was the last one at BestBuy, I'm dissapointed that Amazon.com doesn't have this product.

A previous reviewer said it's only 10 bucks. The price seems to have doubled and the quality halved. I can hear other callers crystal clear. The problem is this: they keep saying, "What? What? I can't hear you. Hello?" Microphone adjustment doesn't make a considerable improvement. This headset is for those who like to listen. If you'd like to join the conversation, your words will fall on deaf ears!

I bought this thinking it will really save my time. But, it proved not of much use to me because the microphone seems to be not that good. The person on the other side can't hear me properly, it's feeble & I have to switch back to hand-full mode instead of hands-free.

Exceptionally durable, ergonomic, good price. Good sound quality, but softer sound . It works very well with cordless phones and some cell phones (such as Motorola, which accept 2.5mm plug).

...Now, i ordered this product in hopes of it being and having: A. Comfortable B. Good Sound Quality C. Durablity

Now these headphones are VERY small, dont be fooled by the picture. They do however fit well if you wear them right. They are worn behind the head at an angle.

As far as the sound quality goes, i would give it a 2/5. The Bass on it [is] just plain [bad]. The fading (noise from phone to phone) is pretty good.

And finally, i can't really tell u much about the durability of this product as i haven't owned it long enough, but it looks like it will last a long time.

i, too, would like to say hi.

to josh.

for making me laugh.

hi.

I dont even have it. I just wanted to say HI.

I am returning these because of the static. The sound quality on the right is fairly good, but the left has so much static that I just can't use them. I'm extremely disappointed.

I find these headphones very comfortable, crystal clear sound in the same room and have a decent range - I washed my car out back while listening to the TV through 4 cement walls, pretty good, with some static. I use them to watch TV in the same room while the fiance reads a book, or to play video game without annoying others. Great for my purposes and good price.

These headphones are great for the price,like I said above. They are comfortable for long-term use. There is some fuzz in the sound, but that is to be expected with wireless headphones. They also sound pretty good, nowhere near my wired AKG K-401s, but few headphones do and come on, they're wireless, they'll never compete with wired. Overall, a great value, especially considering the price!

These headphones are first of all too small. If I had ears the size of a mouse I could wear them. Second the sound quality is horrible, they cannot hold bass or treble. All you hear is static, and it sounds like the music is playing from down the hall. Lastly the cord is too short and you have to strain if you are plugging them into the back of your computer. I would not recommend these, but they are cheap, really CHEAP!

these are great headphones. i bought them for my computer. i was looking for a large, padded, comfortable pair of headphones to wear, so i could listen to my music on my computer without pissing off my parents. when i saw the price for these i thought, "hey, even if they suck, it's only five bucks, so what the hell." so i bought them. they work great. only 1 downside so far. because the top isn't padded, they are a bit uncomfortable, but this problem was easily overcome, i just hot-glued a little nylon strap between the 2 sides, like on other headphones. now they are really comfortable. other than that, they are great for $5. i'd say they are worth about $15, but after that, your asking a little much. i've only had them for a week or so, so i can't say much about the durability, but they haven't broken yet. they also have pretty good bass. don't try turning up the bass on a song without any, it makes it sound all distorted. all the other headphones i've had didn't do that, they simply didn't give any bass where there wasn't any. but, still, great headphones. they don't fall off easy either.

I bought this a few months ago with a Target gift card. I'd been looking for full-size headphones that were good and inexpensive. These headphones are both of those. Another thing I like about them is I can use them on my computer The computer, whenever headphones are plugged in, allows people walking by to hear what's playing as if there weren't any headphones plugged in. But, when I plug these headphones in, turn the volume on the phones up and the sound on my computer down, it's terrific. I'm buying a second set for my stereo.
