What they actually said

Every complaint we could verify against the transcript, newest and longest first, one voice per reviewer.

Comfort and fit

3 of 13 reviewers who discussed it had a problem with it

“However, there is one small drawback, the ear cups are a bit snug for me. When I wear these headphones, my ear press against the inner edge of the ear cups which can cause some discomfort after periods of use.”

“at least for my head there's a noticeable amount of pressure on the lower quadrant of the ear cups against my jaw bone and I can't wear it for more than an hour at a time before it starts hurting”

“The ear pads are soft and plush and clamping pressure is not too tight, but the ear cups are quite shallow, so people with big ears... can feel like it's a bit cramped.”

“They are not without their own issues with some users with wider heads reporting a bit of a tight squeeze and the occasional hinge creek.”

“I specifically want to call out these headphones for not being so good at working out.”

Design and build quality

3 of 10 reviewers who discussed it had a problem with it

“What I would change about these headphones is just the quality of the build. It does have plastic here and it doesn't feel, you know, like the most premium set of headphones.”

Noise cancellation

1 of 10 reviewers who discussed it had a problem with it

“When you turn off noise cancellation on this headphone, the low latency response noticeably decreases. However, when noise cancellation is turned off, the low frequencies gain significant boost. I'm not sure if this is software or hardware…”

Who this is counted from

Thumbnails open each reviewer's video on YouTube.

How this is counted. One reviewer, one vote per topic — a reviewer who makes six points about sound counts once, so the numbers measure reception rather than talkativeness. Specifications and stated personal preferences are excluded; only assessments and direct comparisons count. A topic appears only where at least eight reviewers discussed it.
