If only they had spent a few bucks more on the actual structural parts of this thing, it could've been so good..First off I wanna give credit where credit is due and say that the battery life is also very very impressive.Having worn them for over a year, the plastic headband started breaking apart in several places after a few months already, having figured that if I just taped the headband back together they were basically still usable and the sound was still very good (mind you I generally take very good care of my devices).Out of the box the bass is a bit thumpy though but you can easily adjust that in the app.Now barely over a year later however the earpads started coming off entirely along the seam on the inside, and the foam on the inside started coming out.Now it wasn't tearing the cushions or anything, the glue just started coming off along the seam, so again, it wasn't due to improper use on my part, it was just yet another sign of horrible quality.Not only did this make them uncomfortable to wear, but it also muffled the sound on that one side.Can I recommend them? No, absolutely not.Having google these issues after they appeared, it seems to be a common problem, I even read that one person had to replace them 3 times within warranty period, and all 3 headphones ended up falling apart after a while.Don't be fooled by the great review that are only based on initial impressions, because if this thing holds out a little longer and doesn't fall apart til after your warranty period is over, you have just thrown away your 80 bucks that you could've used to buy an equally good or even better headphone that would've lasted you years longer (or at least longer than a year).Conclusion:I have never in my life seen a product that fell apart this quickly, not even in the early days of aliexpress.Fyi:Headband isn't very comfortable for +5h sessions either
