PRODUCT COMPOSITION
With an MSRP of US$49.99, these are priced in the middle of the market with a price that isn't too expensive, but yet still isn't a cheap purchase.
Headphones are usually very simple product with little to point out when it comes to accessories. With this set though, I was surprised by a handy carrying pouch and the addition of a 1/4" adapter for larger headphone connections. Other than than you get the headphones themselves.
First impressions are good with relatively good build quality and decent materials. There isn't a hint of cheapness or cutting corners when handling them and for a foldable headset, they are remarkably stiff when opened up for use. Things are looking good, but let's go into more detail in the next section.
