Got these to replace a broken pair of headphones at work after separating the cord at the plug. They are nothing fancy--not wireless or noise cancelling; but just a basic, over-the-ear headphone. Sound quality is decent and they are sturdy enough. I find them comfortable (wearing glasses) for a good hour or two before I need a break from them. They cover enough of the ear and reduce ambient noise so as to not have the volume turned up too loud. The only thing I have to say is that the cord is short, so you can't wander very far with them from a desktop PC (probably means I won't break this pair the same way I broke my last ones). For mobile use, the cord length is just fine.

My family of eight has purchased probably over ten pairs of these particular headphones and will keep buying them as long as Sony makes them. We like them best after trying out many other brands for our kids because they have the thickest wires, making them significantly less fragile than other similarly priced headphones, and they are exceptionally comfortable with their soft leather ear pads that are big enough to surround the earlobe but not too big to make them heavy and bulky. Recently they are making these foldable too. Their sound quality is better than others at this price range, and though they certainly don't provide high end sound quality, they are better than The rest at this price which is just fine for everyday use.

Gifted these headphones to my daughter for school and she absolutely loves them. She currently has two, one for school and one for home. Sound quality is perfect. Headphones are easy to clean and put away without damaging any cord. Highly recommended especially being used in school.

These earphones are exactly what I wanted. Good sound, lightweight & foldable for traveling and over the ear (I hate sticking things in my ear). Plus that Sony quality.

These headphones have survived a 10 year old boy so they are pretty dependable being tossed around. The sound quality is really good and build quality is nice. They got my head well also and for the price you can’t beat it. I will purchase another pair once these stop working.

They fit pretty well. They are comfortable enough. Sound is pretty good, but definitely not top of the line. There are some odd sounds from physical movement of the headphones that do take away from listening experience. There's almost no blocking of background sounds. I'd say they are better than average for the price. No one should be expecting miracles from headphones at this price point.

Great for the price. Better than expected sound and decent microphone. I find that the comfort reduces overtime whenever I am wearing it. I might computer for a long period of time. The top of my ears hurt after a couple hours of use. It does not work well as headphones for moving around - the cord gets stuck. You could end up ripping it off your head or pulling your phone. I really like how sturdy this is - i take it to work everyday with my laptop and i haven't had many problems. I have heard the microphone quality is not the best. But, it works fine for the frequency of my online meetings.

These headphones are the most comfortable phones I've ever owned. Sound quality is what i'd expect from Sony very crisp sounding mids and highs, with moderate bass. The only improvement i can think of is to have a longer cord....I use them with my guitar effects processor, so it kinda restricts my movements when im playing.

I just love these headphones! They are soft, comfortable, and have excellent sound quality. And you can't beat them for the price! I have given 2 as gifts, and this is my third pair- only because I was out of town and left pair #2 at home! Best Buy also has quick same day local delivery.

These $20 Sony on-ear headphones were on sale for $10. Had a $5 Best Buy certificate, so I got these for $5 plus tax. For 5 bucks, these are 5 star! Sound is good, on-ear pads are comfortable (almost feel like over-ear), and headband adjustment is easy. Headband is not uncomfortable on the top of my head either. Just wish they had a microphone, but can't complain for $5. Wanted wired to avoid hassle of batteries dying at inopportune times, such as on a Zoom meet-up.

This is my fifth pair of these headphones...my kids use them all the time. They are comfortable, reasonably priced, and have decent sound. They fold up easily for travel.

I mainly purchased these for my kids to use for studies/ lectures and they tell me that keeping them for long time (over 2 hours) does not cause any headaches and sound comes through very clear. I also tried them myself and they feel nice. Voice does comes through clearly. They are soft/comfortable, but does feel like they are for smaller heads :). Tried listening some good tunes and was not impressed by the sound but not disappointed because i knew that for $20 you wont really get headphones to really enjoy crisp and clear audio with deep bass (I have old Sennheiser CX200 plugs and they sound deeper and crispier than these sony). But, what i really like about these sony phones is that they are very comfortable and for kids they are simply perfect. I got two pairs and my kids are happy :)
Recommending for vocal/voice/lectures/audio studies.
Not recommending if you are looking for good audio sound.

I do not like in ear headset. This Sony headset is very comfortable to wear when I go for walk. It is not heavy – but it is not too light either (I don't want it to be too light)
The earpiece are very soft – and after an hour of walking, it is still comfortable. But those that sweat a lot – just wipe it dry after you use it.
It can be folded so it save a little space when you store it.
I don't understand why other models (not necessarily Sony) cost so much more. This would do.

I purchased it for my travels. I needed something with good sound, but cheap in case I left it behind. This headphones pack a punch. I own the Sony WH1000XM5 (which are better) ….but if you consider the sound quality dollar for dollar, this headphone is a great value in my opinion. I even bought a second one for my backpack!

These are great cheap headphones. I got mine for 9.99 at my local best buy. Usually these headphones are $15-$20. They are comfy. I wear glasses and these headphones dont bother my ears at all. I love that they are foldable and the sound quality is pretty good too! The only downside is that if you have a thick phone case the headphones might not plug in.
