Durability
The durability of these headphones is outstanding. These headphones are very tough and won’t break easily while stretching them.

What Do We like
Value for money
The headphones that are as good as these are hard to find at a price under INR 10,000
Excellent sound quality
These headphones provide an excellent sound. The vocals are clear, and the highs are actually lovely. The bass is delightful for daily use.
Flat Wire
This particular headphone is provided with flat wires so that they don’t get easily tangled. And they stay tangled free even when in your pocket or your drawer. The flat cable is 3.5 mm long.
Long Battery Life
When one opts for a Bluetooth option, it shows you a blue LED, and it will last for at least 20 hours. After this, you have to charge it for 2 hours to enjoy the 16 hours audio playback. This kind of battery backup is pretty amazing.
Over-ear headphones
These headphones are over-ear, which means you don’t feel any extra pressure while wearing them. It provides noise isolation as they are over-ear headphones. You can wear it for a long time, and they neither get too hot nor too cold.
What We Don’t Like
It doesn’t have NFC
NFC (Near-field Communication), which enables two electronic devices to connect when you bring them close enough. The other competitors of these headphones have the NFC option at this price. So, it is a letdown that they don’t have NFC.
Not provided with extra bass
If you are a person who enjoys heavy bass, then these headphones are not for you because it is made for people who like a balanced sound profile with a medium bass.
Conclusion
It is a good deal for Bluetooth headphones with a crisp sound and an excellent design. They do a good job in terms of noise isolation, battery life, and a comfortable fit.
It is an excellent option for a person who likes to wear headphones for hours, and the battery life is impressive.
