Q: do these headphones have a mic?
A: No mic.
A: In the description it does not state that these are noise cancelling/sound isolating. However, I have had these for about 2 months and they seem to work great in that area. I purchased because I have a toddler and no longer can turn my music up as loud as I would like to; I like music with a lot of bass and I like to feel the bass. I am very satisfied with these headphones as I can turn the volume up and enjoy my music yet those around me can not hear it as I wear them and I can not hear anything but my music. Very good in both noise cancelling and sound isolating in my opinion.
Q: Can I use these headphones to ride a bike on the road?
A: You should never ride a bike with headphones on. You should pay attention to your surroundings for safety reason. Ears are a vital part of that. Look, listen, and stay alive!
Q: THIS SET OF HEADPHONES ARE FOR KIDS ONLY AND DO THEY WORK FOR MOVIES ON KINDLE HD
A: They aren't only for kids and yes they'll work.
Q: When I use the in ear headphones, I get a headache
A: I would actually grab these headphones, they are very comfortable, I don't like the in ear headphones because they just fall out or make my ear uncomfortable, you can also try the type of headphones that have the around ear piece and the piece that goes in the ear just hovers or sits but doesn't put much pressure. I would think though the most comfortable ones would be over the ear like these Sony, they are cheap and the swivel piece makes them conform better.
Q: can these headphones be used with a i pod
A: Hi willy, Yes. It supports 3.5mm stereo mini jack connection. Thanks, >Joffrey
Q: Can I use these to listen to TV while on treadmill?
A: yes, easily
Q: Do these have volume control?
A: No, they didn't have volume control or me, but they were of superior quality so I accepted them with this deficiency. A total good value even without volume control.

Good performance for a low price.
I was looking for a pair of no-nonsense, easy to use headphones that would work with everything without having to install drivers or pair them with anything. I found them with this pair. These Sony ZX headphones have excellent sound in all but the highest volume settings. When I turn the sound on my computer's Soundblaster Audigy sound card all the way up and turn the sound all the way up on my program that I'm using (such as Youtube for example), the bass gets to sounding just a little bit 'muddy' or distorted. But, if I back the sound card's volume control just a little (like back down to 90 from a maximum of 100), then they sound fantastic. I tested them out by listening to classical music like Mozart, Chopin and Williams (John Williams' movie themes) and they reproduced everything as well or better than my computer's Soundblaster brand speakers and just as well as my CD player's speakers. I also tested them out by wearing them while playing video games that use my sound card's ability to create a 3D surround sound effect such as Skyrim and Fallout New Vegas. These headphones sounded very good with those games and the surround sound worked quite well with them thanks to the way that the ear pads conform to the shape of your ears a bit, blocking out most background noise so that you really get the full effect of the surround sound. That's not bad performance from a budget pair of headphones. They are lightweight, but don't feel fragile. I like that you can fold them up quite a bit so that they'll easily fit in a backpack or portable game system carry case like the one I have for my New 3DS XL that has several pouches inside of it. Not quite as small as my earbuds, but will still fit if I don't take all of my game cards. The only thing I really don't like about them and that keeps them from earning five stars, is that the headband isn't padded. I thought it wouldn't matter since they aren't heavy, but after extended use (like watching a two hour movie for example), the headband gets to be rather uncomfortable. So, I wrapped a piece of felt around the headband and taped it in place with Gorrilla Tape (like Duct Tape only better). That has solved the problem. I recommend these headphones for when you want a pair of simple headphones that won't be too big of a shame to lose, get broken or stolen since they didn't cost a fortune, but yet still sound decent. They aren't Bose level of quality, but they aren't Bose priced either.

Good "Less than $20" headphones w/ decent sound
ACTUAL RATING: 4.1 Stars PROS: -Very cost-efficient -Good balance of deep bass, strong mids, and highs -WAY better than your default headphones that come with your phone -Can collapse to store quite flat -Extremely light -Easily fits bigger head sizes -The headphone jack is long enough for phone cases w/ deeper cutouts CONS: -VERY creaky plastic that takes away from the experience and overpowers the actual music/movie -Materials are quite cheap and will break/wear quickly -Earcup foam vinyl breaking down and flakes off everywhere with daily use -The glossy finish of the outer ear cups are fingerprint and smudge magnets -Bass overpowers a lot of the mids and highs of the music -At full volume, there is some distortion in the bass MY $.02: I was looking for a pair of cheap headphones that can be thrown on and around anywhere I go that also had some good sound to them, and this Sony MDRZX110 hits all those marks, and then some! At less than $20, you really can’t go wrong with these puppies, as they sound fantastic, with good deep/rich bass, clear mids, and highs, and can be cranked up high when you need to drown out the world at whatever your task is at hand. Whenever I have a chance to turn the volume maxed on these headphones, they handled it well! They easily fold up quite flat for easy storage, strong cable, and a good length on the headphone jack for phones w/ thicker cases. I also have a big head and a lot of hair, and the headphones are a comfortable fit for longer wears at a time, usually 2+ hours. However, there are quite a few cons to these as well. My biggest complaint about these headphones is the plastic used and construction makes them VERY VERY creaky. So creaky that they take away from the music or movie that I’m watching 100% of the time, and that blows! The materials used are also pretty cheap, for example, the earcup foams are already quite soft and thin as it is, after a few months of use, they pretty much flattened out. Along with the materials used around the ear cups, the vinyl is already breaking down and flaking off every time I take them on and off. You can also tell these headphones are not meant to be used for more than 5 years in my opinion, as the entirety of the materials of the headphones will not age well. But hey, they’re less than $20, so use’em and love’em, I do! SUMMARY: Great headphones w/ amazing balanced sound, but the materials are cheap AND the creaking from the plastic takes away from the experience of whatever you may be listening to. But they’re less than $20!!! So enjoy them while they’re still intact!

Great Sound, Great Value!!
I’ve been using the Sony ZX Series Wired On-Ear headphones for a while now, and they’ve exceeded my expectations. The sound quality is crisp with solid bass and clear mids, especially for the price. They’re lightweight and comfortable to wear for long listening sessions, and the wired connection means no battery worries. Perfect for daily use, commuting, or working at a desk. Simple, reliable, and surprisingly good quality—highly recommend if you want great audio without breaking the bank.
