Not bad for the price.
Obviously at this price, I figured these would not be as good as the Bose. I'm not an audiophile or anything. I just want earphone that don't make my music sound tinny and provide some cancellation of outside noise.Pros:These are comfortable. Not too loose. Some I've tried slip and fall right off my head. Others make me feel like brains are being squished. This was right in the middle.The sound quality is surprisingly good! I was very pleased the first time I turned them on.The buttons are placed well and easy to figure out--sort of. The ANC is where you would think the power button would be.They come with a nice, sturdy carrying case.Cons:The ear cups are a tad small. I don't think I have particularly large ears, maybe I do, I don't know. These are a bit small on the ears and after wearing them for a few hours my ears are sweaty, which is weird and gross. I've never had my ears sweat before.The "Active Noise Cancellation" is a joke. When you turn it on, it adds a little bit of static which reduces the quality of the sound of the music, but does nothing to cancel or even reduce outside noise. We live in a quiet area, but with it now being close to summer, windows are open and I wanted something to at least dull the noises from neighbors, etc. This does nothing. I can still hear every little noise. I thought it might blunt the sound of the television when I'm working in another room and people are watching t.v. in the living room. Nope. Not at all.So, bummer on the ANC. For the price, I'm not surprised, but it's still disappointing.

My $5 headset from the store 5 Below works better.
I purchased a headset from 5 Below. This headset does not have a microphone, but works as good or better than this headset.The noise cancellation works to some extent, but not well enough. When you turn on the noise cancellation you can hear some noise cancelled. However, not that much noise is cancelled.The highest volume is too low. Feel you can see this in other reviews.One cannot control the volume on devices. I attempted to use the volume control while stream Pandora on an echo dot. This did not work. Tried to use the volume control on my Iphone, this did not work.Many people, in my opinion, dismiss these issues because of the low cost of this item. However, I have a set of $5 headphones that are louder and can be use to control the volume of my devices.My suggestion is to ether go to a 5 Below store and buy a set of headphones, or spend more money to get some that work. Am most disappointed.

Meets my expectations...
First thing first, I'm not a audiophile and Im not overly picky when it comes to headphones and Im surely not into paying $300+ for headphones because I usually only use them during travel, however, I do appreciate an overall quality sound experience. With that out of the way, I purchased these for a long flight (20hr) to Thailand and I must say I'm very pleased with my purchase of the TaoTronics headphones. See below for my indepth review...1. Sound Quality - These headphones provided a very crisp sound with heavy bass.2. Durability - The headphones are made of plastic and felt a little cheap. They didnt feel like they could break in the event of being smashed or twisted abnormally but the feel was cheap.3. Comfort - Im satisfied with the comfort of the headphones. The ear cup is made of faux leather but never made my ears feel uncomfortable or sweaty over a long period of time.4. Noise Cancelling - The noise-cancelling technology worked well. Again, Im not a audiophile so I dont have any other top brand headphones to compare this technology to but these headphones did a good job cancelling out about 90% of the sound on a plane: the airplane engine during a 20hr flight, 2 crying babies about 15 feet from me, and other noise.5. Battery Life - The battery life is great. I used these headphones (in bluetooth mode) for 2 consecutive days for about 10.5 hours a day and they didnt need a charge until day 3. I'm impressed.Overall, Im happy with my purchase. Dont expect Bose quality but for the price, Im a happy customer.

Phenomenal headphones
These pair of TaoTronics headphones are such phenomenal quality in every single way that I decided to order another pair for the family. The noise cancelling feature works impeccably and I love that one can choose to use it with the cord or wirelessly. The cushion support on the ears are perfection! They are not to nug nor uncomfortable at all. I use to own some beats wireless which became very heavy and uncomfortable overtime. Not to mention for the amount of money spent on them....these TaoTronics are hands down the best! I plan on ordering 2 more pairs soon that way everyone in my family can have their own. Thank for such a great quality product at such an awesome price!!!

Finally!
These are the fourth pair of headphones I bought. Had to return the first 3 because they made weird noises. Crackling and a buzz when changing songs(bludio t6) Were too big (bludio t5s). Weird humming noise(cowine7 pro) These were actually the least expensive pair I've tried. They're really nice for $60 and they come with a case so no extra $15 charge, The cowins came with a case too but more expensive. I highly suggest these for the money,

ONLY Lasts a couple months
These headphones are fairly comfortable, soft on the ear but they are poorly crafted. I bought these for my husband to use at the gym. They don't turn off when you push the off button, they just stay on. The sound is okay but after a couple months of twice a week use, they died. Complete garbage. What a waste of $60+. The return and tech support window is only available for a couple months which is coincidentally just a hair before these headphones crashed. Don't waste your money on these junky headphones.

Does not rattle my ears
Almost everything was great about this product, except for the fact that it is quiet. The bass does not rattle my ears the same way JLab headphones does.

The Sound Of Silence....almost
It’s a good product for the price. So the value is there. I’d like the headphones to fit a little better and have greater noise cancelling, but for the money, it’s worth it.
