Good, basic headphones for everyday use

These are pretty good headphones if you just need something basic without too many fancy features, as well as something comfortable.
The sound quality is good, and the headphones will block out enough outside noise unless you're in an extremely loud environment. There's also no set-up involved for the headset itself, though depending on what device you are using, you may have to set up options on the device's side. Also, as far as I can tell, these should be compatible with just about anything that has a standard headphone jack.
I'm a bit concerned about the microphone's function being activated by moving it down, as I feel this could cause it to wear down over time, but this will depend on how much you use it to talk.
The other minor nitpick I have is the location of the volume control, which is on the back of the left headphone. It can be a bit difficult to feel for, and doesn't feel as intuitive as having one placed on the cord.
Overall, this is a good starter if you just need something to listen to music or voice-chat with privacy.

I got this headset for my daughter to use on the Xbox One. The one highlight was that I didn't have any issues setting it up. Other than that though, it is a pretty lackluster piece of hardware.
The headset has a tight fit - so if that is your thing maybe you will like it - but even on my teenage daughter's head it was too tight. I tried it myself, having a large head, and I do not think I could wear it for any significant amount of time. The elastic band on the top is aggressive for lack of a better word. The ear phones themselves are not big enough, and neither of us has large ears as far as I know.
Though there was not any sound quality issues necessarily during use, but both what was coming from the headphones and what was sent over the microphone seemed, I do not know, muted? Like there was cheesecloth or something inbetween. Yes you could hear them and vice versa from the get go, but we have had other headsets, including from Turtle Beach, that just sounded better. We adjusted the headphones themselves, and even attempted to do so via the XBox without any relief.
