Customer Ratings & Reviews

I’ve been using the Sony ZX Series Wired On-Ear Headphones for a while now, and I’m impressed with what they deliver for the price. The sound quality is clear and well-balanced, with enough bass to make music and movies enjoyable without being overpowering. They’re lightweight and comfortable enough for long listening sessions, and the ear cushions are soft but still feel durable. I also like that the design folds flat, making them easy to pack in a bag for travel or work. The wired connection means I never have to worry about charging, and the cable feels sturdy without being too thick or heavy. Overall, these headphones are a fantastic budget-friendly option for anyone who wants solid sound and comfort in a simple, reliable package. Highly recommended!

These headphones do precisely what a set of studio headphones should. I had these headphones on while playing a game, and when I took them off I realized a major rainstorm was happening. This is amazing sound dampening, for such a cheap set of headphones. These are "the" headphones for if you need some music while you study, if you're on a budget. These headphones aren't sound canceling, you will hear background noise if you're looking for it, but the moment you're focused on your audio you'll swear these headphones are worth twice the price. ros: -Good sound dampening. When you need to block out the background sounds of dorm life or the city while you're doing your own thing, these headphones do a wonderful job with general noise. I doubt they're good enough for a plane, but for a dorm or most bus rides you should be very isolated. -Good sound, with good bass. Things with a lot of high-end treble (audiobooks, low-quality mp3) don't sound too tinny or washed out. Things with lots of bass (movies, dance music) have good punch. The overall range is quite good and quite balanced, with a nod toward the heavy/dynamic range

My daughter needed a pair of headphones/earbuds for 1st grade. I opted for these as they seemed better made and wanted a pair that would last. Earbuds get to be a knotted mess. I’m in the elementary school a lot so I know first hand how hard the kids can be on headphones. This particular pair have a thicker cord than most which I wanted because I’ve seen kids break headphones. The wire is so thin and they carry them by the cord, swing them, wrap them around their finger, chew on them, etc. The folding ear pieces weren’t a problem for her. I did buy a hard case for her to keep them in in her desk. The only issue we had was that the cord is so thick, that the end of the plug has a thicker coating, that sometimes she didn’t push it all the way into the chrome book. It was because of how close the port was to the edge of the computer, not the headphones. I am happy to report that they lasted and have currently made it through 1/2 of second grade. Beyond lasting, they really have good sound and are comfortable on the ears. I only wish they had a volume control on the cord. I’m glad I found a pair that has lasted.

Sound quality is excellent for a lower priced audio device. My only complaint is how short the wire is. With around 2.75 ft of cord, it is barely long enough to plug in to my desktop pc. I constantly have to scoot mmy chair in and cannot sit comfortably. This device needs at least another foot of length at a minimum for normal use with most devices.

Solid headphones. Feel comfy, sound great, and looks cool. I do alot of editing, which includes sound. I need headphones that I can comfortably wear for hours at a time and that functions like they should. And these are those headphones. There are better ones out there sure, but for the pricepoint, they can't be beat! Definitely would recommend to others.

These are GREAT starter headphones or ones that you want to keep around your devices for quick use when you don’t want to deal with Bluetooth headphones. For the price the sound is terrific and as described the bass is lush. The on-ear headphone pads are comfortable and the headset adjust to fit even a large head like mine (baseball hat size 7 3/4)! Great job Sony!!!

These are a great sounding pair of headphones. I compared these with the Skull Candy Hesh 2 and didnt hear a difference. So why not buy these and save $80. These headphones have good highs and the bass is good too. I use these to listen to music and use it as a headset when on the Xbox One. The cushions on the headphones are soft and so comfortable. You can wear these for hours because of comfort and because they are light weight. I would buy Sony any day.

For the price, these are amazing. Clear sound and very respectable bass. I use these for working out on an elliptical. They stay on my head without being too tight. The only thing I'm worried about the fact that they fold up flat. I've only had them a couple weeks and have had no problems, but it seems like it could break if not handled with care. Also, I have to turn up the volume on my iphone more with these than with other headphones, but it's maxed out. Excellent product even at a higher price.

So happy with these headphones. The Sony sound is great, they're lightweight and flexible but not too much, comfortable and unbeatably priced. Maybe older technology because they're wired, but they're easy to use and work perfectly with my MP3. Took them on a recent staycation and couldn't have been more pleased.

WOW - Picked these up today after wearing the ZX100 for the last 3 years and wearing through the lining on the padding. Sounds is incredible, rich bass, not 'deep' as Bose/Beats might sell you, just a solid, full, well balanced sound, much better than I expected from a $20 pair of phones. Looking at the cost difference between the '100's and these, the $5 is laughable. Feel is fantastic, quality materials, folding pads is awesome and a thick cable with the right angle connector makes life easy. Tug to hard one way? Pressure gets pushed into the wire connection, not the actual plug which (one of my favorite, and most often utilized features of the 100s) so they won't snap on you. Cost, well, if you can't shell out $20 for a decent pair of headphones it might be worth spending that money elsewhere. Very happy, terrific product and price point. Blown away!

I bought these Sony ZX Series headphones as a cheap, reliable pair for my commute and for travel, and they've exceeded my expectations for the price. The sound quality is surprisingly good. I'm not an audiophile, but the audio is clear, and the bass has a nice punch without being overpowering. It's a significant step up from standard earbuds that come with phones. I use them for music, podcasts, and video calls, and everything sounds great.

Light weight, comfortable, and great sound. A great price, too.

Sony is one of the best brands, The sound is excellent quality. This device is light and the paddings are very comfortable.

Lightweight and not tight on the head On‑ear design can cause pressure after long sessions Ear pads are soft but not plush

If you are looking for an inexpensive alternative to all the high priced headphones out, these are it. These are very budget friendly and even though the fold up they are still durable. This is my third set we bought to use in the car and they all three work great. They sound good I have used them to mow the yard and can hardly hear the mower. They are pretty lightweight as well.

Great sound - great price! These fold up nicely too for my laptop bag, & they're very lightweight.

My experience with the Sony wired headphones has been nothing short of delightful, but what truly stands out is how much my 8-year-old daughter adores them. These headphones have become her constant companion, accompanying her to school and enhancing her daily activities at home. Durability and Comfort: The first thing that caught my attention about these headphones is their durability. Designed to withstand the rigors of daily use, they've held up remarkably well despite my daughter's active lifestyle. Additionally, the plush ear cushions ensure a comfortable fit, allowing her to wear them for extended periods without any discomfort. Perfect for School and Home: Whether she's at school or home, my daughter relies on these headphones for various activities. At school, they help her focus during lessons and provide immersive audio for educational videos. At home, they're her go-to choice for watching cartoons, listening to music, or engaging in interactive learning apps. Safe Listening Experience: As a parent, one of my top priorities is ensuring that my daughter's hearing is protected. I appreciate that these headphones deliver balanced sound with a limited maximum volume, preventing any potential damage to her ears. It's reassuring to know that she can enjoy her favorite content safely. Ease of Use: Another aspect that I appreciate about these headphones is their simplicity. With a straightforward plug-and-play design, my daughter can easily connect them to any device without any hassle. This user-friendly experience adds to their appeal, making them suitable for children of all ages. Final Verdict: In conclusion, the Sony wired headphones have exceeded my expectations in terms of durability, comfort, and performance. Seeing how much joy they bring to my daughter's daily routine reaffirms my decision to choose them. If you're in search of reliable headphones that can withstand the adventures of childhood while providing excellent audio quality, look no further than these. They've earned a permanent spot in our household and come highly recommended for young listeners everywhere.

These headphones are simple, lightweight, and get the job done. The sound is clear with good balance, and they’re comfortable enough for long listening sessions without hurting your ears. The wired connection means no worrying about charging, and they work perfectly with laptops, phones (with adapter), or other devices. Great for travel, school, or everyday use—an excellent budget-friendly choice.

I bought these for myself for just around the home. I find them comfortable and the sound quality is decent.

I got this for my daughter because she doesn't like the ear buds. She LOVES LOVES LOVES it. They are comfortable, the sound is good and they fold up! That option alone is great for both of us because she just tucks into her lunch bag. The price was also reasonable considering there are better headsets for A LOT MORE money and I was worried that I would have to spend a lot more than I did.
