sorted byIf you buy them with a v-moda boom mic you can also use them for a gaming headset that works quite well.
Build quality is superb straight away. Metal frame, sturdy, doesn't feel cheap at all (whereas my Bose are £200 and feel like cheap plastic that can snap). Larger then I expected but still pretty lightweight
Cable is very long and braided & can unplug from headphones meaning less chance of breaking or tripping.
These are 'open' so no passive noise cancelling & you can hear everything around you. I imagine these are good for Teams and Slack calls if you work from home (whereas my Sony/Bose make me feel 'deaf' due to being so tight and closed).
The 'openness' is very weird at first especially as i've never had ones like this before. Sounds like there's less base. Music does sound extremely clear & same with podcasts.
The top band is stretchy & pretty comfortable as it adjusts with your head, very little pressure around the ears too so I can imagine wearing these for hours without issues.
Might not be good for everybody but for me, I imagine i'll be using daily for work meetings on Teams, light gaming and music (then swapping to my bluetooth headphones if i need noise cancelling or if I'm on the move).
I dunnnnnoo.. less than £80 id say give them a go. I understand you need to pay a lot of money to make a decent step up from these though.
The AKG K702 for about the same price or slightly higher is far better imo, depending on use
Or for a budget alternative the Koss KTXPRO1. Which I actually far prefer to the X2HR for 1/4 the price
