QuestionDo these headphones have a mic for phone calls?
Asked 7 years ago by Britt.
- Answer Hi Bitt, Yes it does have a mic for answering phone calls. If this is a gift I recommend buying for an older more responsible person. Only because the kids can break them very easily. Hope this helps. RDR15

QuestionHello. I know these are for bass, but how is the sound clarity on these? Is it muffled at all? I usually watch action movies, and listen to rap. If these aren't for me what are good alternatives?
Asked 7 years ago by Abdel.
- Answer I've been using them for gaming alot, very very clear. The bass can be toggled on and off on the headphone which I find useful, it can also be adjusted with a free app. I've had them for a few weeks and very satisfied. They are quite pricey but you definitely get what you pay for, highly recommend.

QuestionCan someone tell me if they really break so easy?i want answers from someone who bought these
Asked 7 years ago by seone32.
- Answer They actually do break easily, I've replaced my pair 4 times now, thank god I had warranty. Last time they cracked after only two months. Seems to be a manufacturing defect in the plastic that attaches to the earphone part, it's very thin and brittle. I've taken VERY good care of them but they just seem to randomly generate cracks after some time. I agree the sound is amazing, that's why I still bother with them....
