My boyfriend lost his headphones while moving houses, and they were a real expensive pair, with the mic that muted if you flip it up and noise cancellation. He's got a loud Jamaican family, so that was nice for him. After he lost them I wanted to buy him a new pair, but I'm unemployed, so my budget was about 30 bucks. I saw these on sale from $40 down to $20 and figured what the hell, if the headphones are crap he'll still think I'm pretty.But they're decent I'd say! Especially for the money. He can still hear his family pretty clearly, but it's not like this would be able to compete with the real bougie pair he started off with. If you care a lot about that, you gotta drop more than $30. The mic doesn't flip up to mute either, like the reviews say, but the audio quality, for both input and output, is good enough for Multiversus, Valorant, and late night discord calls. Good deal!
