Our Verdict
They perform moderately well in most uses and make for decent everyday headphones.
- Great audio reproduction.
- Very little leakage.
- Poor noise isolation.
- Lacking control options.
- In-ear design may not be for everyone.
Average for neutral listening. These headphones have a decent audio reproduction but the closed-back in-ear design lacks a little openness for neutral listening.
The small portable build and the typical in-ear fit is adequate for commuting, but the active isolation is a little weak.
Decent for sports use. They have an above-average stable fit and are also small enough to carry around on your person everywhere you go.
Mediocre for office use. They won't block the chatter of a busy office, and the in-ear fit isn't always comfortable for long listening sessions.
