        Negative reviews usually give more of an insight to a product than the positive reviews.

        Takeaways:
        Not very comfortable
        Poor noise cancellation (very little/ no difference when used on flights)
        Low build quality
        Low maximum volume control

        Not sure what people are trying to expect for under $20 headphones. Expectations too high.

        @bargainerftw: Probably because the product photos make it look like a premium product.

        @ATangk:

        Why do negative reviews give more insight than positives? You'd think if someone was angry about it they'd be more driven to write a review rather than the someone who's happy.

        I think that's more a case of it's easier to pick on flaws than look at the positives.

        @plmko:
        Because 5 star comments are more likely to contain one line.
        Also, I was pertaining to comments with a 'cons' section within the review, to let others know what might be at fault.
        If i was going to buy something, id like to know the shortcomings and not just what its good for.
        What good is a car with luxury interiors and styling if the engine cannot be started?

        Well I wouldn't mind a $14.99 + PH luxury car that cannot be started :)

  not bad deal if you try not to think of them as noise cancelling

  This is the kind of product that costs Sony $5 USD to make but can sell in a airport or boutique electronics store for $50 apiece simply because of brand name and marketing

  • 

    Charity on 17/08/2015 - 03:21

    bingo!

    If only they knew it also dilutes their brand $5 at a time also. Then Sony's marketers and accountants keep wondering why they can't make any money this century when they keep pissing on their own brand

  Randxyz123 on 15/08/2015 - 23:19

  They claim "Don't pay $149" but where are they $149?

  They are $25 in the US.

  I'd consider $4.99 if shipping wasn't so expensive and they had 1 cord not 2 dangling down.

  I'm looking out for a cheapo pair of headphones to throw in my Uni Bag but these aren't quite what I'm after.

  dont waist your money, any cheap headphones that are on ear will be so uncomfortable. if these were over ear you may be ok. stay away.
