They are lightweight, do not 'crush' my large head (I am 6' 5'' tall) do not leak sound even in a quiet bedroom (likewise not much sound leaks in & can hear the TV when the track ends) synchronised to my Nexus 5 phone & Nexus 10 tablet quickly. Can be used with a higher quality output wired (propriety end connection at the headphone end) range is at least 20M as I tried them in my garden. The extra base button can only be used on Bluetooth, it is really for those who contemplate buying Beats & listen to Hip Hop, there is plenty of base. On/off button, volume, Track back/forward are on the headphones & a microphone for taking calls (not tried this). Its over 30 years with young ears since I had a high quality Walkman that I could hear the breath of singers on, with the improvement in quality but much older ears I can hear that again. Read the paperwork with them but then you must download/read the online pdf (I did not for about a week) to set higher quality settings. They are set as standard to better connection but lower quality sound you can increase the sound quality at the expense of occasional 'drop outs' (if you want better range), it consists of turning them on whilst holding down the volume button on +/- & counting the blue light flashes. They are not £300/£400 top of the range headphones but just over £100. Buy.
The only cheaper sites for these were 'fly by night' far east ones that when tracked had awful reviews.

Goed geluid, de bass boost knop is een beetje overbodig en dat je bij maximaal volume een harde piep hoort is ook vrij irritant. Voor de rest, een erg goeie koptelefoon met allemaal handige knoppen en functies.

Voordelen:
- Geluidskwaliteit
- Bas, met name tijdens het spelen van shooters komt de bas boost functie goed tot zijn recht (ik heb hem verbonden via bluetooth). Normaal gebruikte ik een speakerset met subwoofer maar de bas boost functie zorgt ervoor dat de koptelefoon een goede vervanger hiervoor is.
- Bedieningsgemak, de vorige/volgende en play/pause switch aan de zijkant van de koptelefoon kan je gebruiken om Spotify te bedien (icm Windows 10).
- Het maximale volume is toereikend.
- Batterijduur, bij intensief gebruik op relatief hoog volume en bas boost functie aan kon ik zonder problemen acht uur vooruit (hij was toen nog niet leeg)
- Draagcomfort, zelf nadat je de koptelefoon enkele uren op hebt irriteert deze niet.
Minpunten:
- Ondanks dat het toch een redelijk prijzige koptelefoon is er geen beschermzak of etui meegeleverd, dit is eigenlijk iets wat ik wel zou verwachten bij een dergelijke koptelefoon.
- Het is geen opvouwbare koptelefoon waardoor de koptelefoon lastiger is op te bergen in een tas. Ik heb deze case na afloop besteld en dat is toch eigenlijk wel een must als je de koptelefoon veilig op wil bergen. (Deze etui is compatible http://www.bax-shop.nl/headphone-bag/udg-creator-headphone-hardcase-large-zwart)
- Gelijktijdig gebruik maken van de microfoon en muziek luisteren is niet mogelijk.

+heldere klanken
+mooie bas
+goede draadloze verbinding
+extra kabel om muziek te luisteren als je batterij leeg Is
+handige knoppen op de telefoon
+fijn draagcomfort
- Geluid schakelt een korte tijd uit als koptelefoon op maximum wordt gezet
- bass boost is met sommige genres erg overbodig en veels te krachtig
9.5/10
