The Diskin DH3 are decent-sounding, stable headphones. They won't fall off your head even while running or working out, and they're relatively quiet to the people around you because of their low leakage. Unfortunately, they're uncomfortably tight and poorly block ambient noise with their weak active noise cancellation. They also have inconsistent and poor battery performance, which may be a deal-breaker for most.

Our Verdict

0.0
Mixed Usage 

The Diskin DH3 perform moderately well as mixed usage headphones. They have a decent audio reproduction and a lightweight, stable design. They don't leak much, but their noise isolation is a little weak for some environments.

Pros
  • Stable, wireless design.
  • Minimal leakage.
Cons
  • Poor noise isolation.
  • Uncomfortable clamping pressure.
0.0
Neutral Sound 

The Diskin DH3 are mediocre for neutral listening. The small closed-back ear cups don't create a good soundstage, and their sound isn't neutral or balanced enough to be ideal for neutral listening.

0.0
Commute/Travel 

The Diskin DH3 aren't suitable for commuting. The poor noise isolation lets a lot of noise into your audio. They're also a bit tight, which can get uncomfortable on long commutes.

0.0
Sports/Fitness 

The Diskin DH3 are above-average for sports use. They're lightweight and have a stable fit that won't easily fall off while jogging. They're also wireless and relatively compact. Unfortunately, the tightness may get uncomfortable after a while.

0.0
Office 

The Diskin DH3 are better-than-average for office use. They don't leak too much, which won't be audible to the people around you. However, they also won't block much of the office chatter.
