I bought these as a cheap time filler while waiting on some Sennheiser 599s to arrive as my current cans have one channel lost, so I didnt want to be w/o for 3 days and Im blown away for the price how good these are both reasonably comfortable to wear and a half decent sound far better than my expectations. Perfect 10/10 recommended budget headcans

February 2025 Colour Name: Black Style Name: Basic Pattern Name: Single Foldable, lightweight, good price – I bought these to plug into my phone so can listen without others hearing, being disturbed by the noise if I am away from home eg travelling..So far so good (only used them handful of times so far.)

Usual good Sony sound reproduction, slightly weighted towards bass. Got these for my synthesiser and they’re a great pairing. These are lightweight over-the-head headphones. The padding is comfortable. The headband adjusts in a very simple manner and will cater for older children and adults even with larger heads (I’m hat size seven-and-three-quarters and it fits me just fine with room to spare). They don’t block out a great deal of outside noise, so you can still carry out a conversation with other people in the room so long as you don’t have anything too loud. The cable is only 1.5 metres / 5 feet and terminates with a standard 3.5mm audio jack. There is no volume control and no noise cancelling on this model MDR-ZX110 but there are other variants that do feature such. The cable is quite thick and I would think the cable would be very hard-wearing, it’s not going to tangle, snag nor get caught on anything, but where the cable goes in to the phones on each side, there is no strain relief so I would imagine it would fail there. Audio quality is good for the price. There’s a slight bias towards bass with a bit of loss of the top end, but even so these are not going to deafen you with low-end basslines. Classical, pop, rock and electronica all sound fine. At a smidge over twelve quid this is never going to be audiophile quality, but it is well above the other no-name or fashion brands like JBL or Gummy or the usual stuff you find in B&M, Home Bargains etc. Sony have always been a good trade-off between sound quality and price in my experience. If you want to spend three times the price or more, you will definitely find better – no surprises there. In terms of build quality, it’s not that great to be honest. Although the cable is thick and sturdy, the headset itself is made from thin brittle plastic. I’m really not sure why they made it foldable; sure, it folds flat, but really, this is not going to withstand any kind of abuse from travel. I certainly wouldn’t expect it to survive a couple of trips in a backpack. These are very much “stay at home” headphones. Comfortable. Light. Good sound for the price. If you want a pair of nice sounding headphones, don’t want to spend much money and don’t need them to stand up to much abuse, these are a great buy. 16 people found this helpful

I ordered these headphones after getting sick of using only my earbuds for over a year. I was hoping for something more comfortable and better for my hearing but didn’t want to spend loads on the more expensive models so bought these encouraged by the good reviews. I have to say that they are extremely comfortable to wear- lightweight and soft on the ears. They aren’t noise cancelling at all but I’m personally not bothered by this as I prefer to be aware of my surroundings. Plus they don’t leak sound so other people aren’t disturbed by what you’re listening to either. Sound quality wise, they’re not bad at all but they’re not amazing either. Good for how little they cost but very quiet and difficult to hear the finer details in the music. The bass is, arguably, a tad bit exaggerated too. For music listening, I honestly have to say that my earbuds do a better job! I’m not an expert in sound quality or music production by any means and I have no professional need for headphones that are amazing so take my opinion with a grain of salt. But I do love my music a lot and it’s my favourite pastime. The good news is that you can turn the music as loud as you can and it doesn’t sound grainy or distorted at any point. The cable is nice and sturdy- not flimsy so I feel better that it probably won’t become frayed or break down in a hurry. I like the fact that they are foldable too as it makes storage much easier! Overall, they’re okay-very practical. If you’re looking for headphones that don’t cost an arm and a leg and do a decent job then these are definitely for you. Although the next time I purchase headphones, I will definitely go for a pair with a higher sound quality. 22 people found this helpful

I find these fit well over my head and ears, the sound is very good and clear. Note that they do not keep out external noise but reduce it, but this does not affect the sound quality and clarity when playing music. They fold up easily, making them easier to carry. Having used them a few times they seem to be durable. For the price I am very pleased with them. 6 people found this helpful

Hard to believe these are so cheap. Build quality seems good. Sound is also good. For the price, I can’t imagine you’ll find anything better. Only thing I would change is that I would buy the set with the inline microphone — it’s only a little bit more money. Highly recommended. 4 people found this helpful
