These are really great for little kids. They’ll be to small for an adult. They sound great.

These seem like they are probably good quality but it should be better described in the listing that they are made for SMALL children. My 11 year old could not use these as the ear pads are so small it actually hurt her. I would say no older than 7 for these. Since we returned them, I'm not sure how the overall quality or ease of use is.

These over the ear headphones are wireless and connect via Bluetooth. The padding is soft and they seem pretty flexible and durable. They have a retractable mic too. They are rated for ages 6 and up. They are small so they are only suitable for a child. One nice thing is that the sound maxes out at 85 dB. It's a good idea to protect little ears from too loud sound. The sound quality is good.
These headphones are geared to be used for gaming but can be used for general purpose too. They can be used for mobile devices as well as desktop devices. There is a cord with an aux plug to connect to your gaming devices.
The specs say that they have over 22 hours of power per charge. A word of advice though; I tried to use another charging cable to charge them but it didn't work. The charging cord that it comes with is visibly longer.

First off, my kid loves these, that's the most important part.
I jumped on these as my child has not been able to find any good quality headphones for his age and has recently got into gaming on his switch and tablet. I tested using them in wired and wireless mode using Youtube Music on high quality and Tidal to test Master and Hi-Fi audio quality. Testing was conducted on a MacBook Pro 16 and a iPhone 11 Pro. Testing was a little difficult as an adult wearing children’s headphones for fit so please keep that in mind while reading.
Pros:
-Good audio quality overall
-Fun design
-Comfortable fit
-Wired and wireless options
-Microphone retracts
-Volume limiting
Cons
-Micro USB charging (no USB-C)
-Aux cable connects to headphones vis USB-C, hard to replace
-Audio quality (vocals) mixed bag
Unboxing:
Opening has generic but fun packaging. Inside you will find the headphones, documentation, a Aux to Micro-USB cord and a USB A to Micro USB cord for charging. There is no included power adaptor.
Set up: After an initial charging (red LED will turn blue when charged), I paired it with my MacBook Pro to test connectivity, microphone quality with various settings and wired quality. Bluetooth pairing is simple with holding the power button for a few seconds and then pairing in your bluetooth menu. Any console that supports bluetooth profiles will work fine with this, if there is a special proprietary connection required you might run into issues. In that situation you will utilize the AUX cable to connect audio to your device.
Use / Audio quality: On the Mac book, I actually was pretty impressed. Using Tidal, I tested a variety of songs from High quality to Master quality. Music by Charli XCX had pretty impressive and clean bass for children headphones. Most vocals on Tidal were good quality. Rock music in Youtube Music sounded a little muffled, I was unsure if this was due to the compression in YouTube Music or the headphones. I compared the song Words, Hands, Hearts by Yellowcard to the Tidal version and did notice a difference while wired. YT Music was muffled while Tidal’s version was just quiet in comparison so I am sure compression is a factor as might be the DAC inside the headphones. Children won’t care but since this is a review, I thought I would nitpick. Of note, voices on YouTube videos sounded very dull, music tracks were mostly good to go. I assume this is due to the above issue with music.
Testing wired on Master was overall a nice experience aside from the boring vocals, I noticed that on MacBook the bluetooth profile will default to AAC which was interesting, I assumed the headphones would only support SBC. As a result, I did not notice any lag in videos.
I tested the microphone recording in “compressed” and in “lossless” on MacBook. Compressed had noticeable background static but sounded pretty accurate. Lossless seemed to have got rid of much of the static and was much better. I also ensure the settings were set to 96000 Hz in the MIDI audio controls.
Connectivity:
Wired are wireless are the options here. I was able to see AAC and SBC profiles on bluetooth. No APT-X as far as I can tell. I think most people will used the wired mode on consoles. I believe the PS4 supports bluetooth so you can likely connect it wirelessly to that. Xbox does not so you will have to go the wired route on that, same goes for the switch.
Cell phone and PC connectivity is outstanding if you have an Aux port or bluetooth. I would go for the wired connection when available as I felt it sounded much better on these headphones. On a commute in a bus or train, I wouldn’t be able to tell the difference though.
Battery life / extra notes:
Battery life is rated for 22 hours but I was unable to run them down in my review time so it must be pretty good overall. There is no noise cancellation on these but provide good isolation due to their design.
