With extensive care and handeling,cheap plastic gave up most rediciluous way.

a few months down the line, the loose hinge caused the plastic to deteriorate, to the point that the plastic starting chipping off and exposing the metal hingethen, the bluetooth started unsyncing from my phone and laptop, so, i sent them to beats for repair or replacement and beats refused to honor the warrantythey claimed that the cosmetic damage was too bad and they said they didn't know if the cosmetic damage caused the bluetooth to break or whether the bluetooth broke on its owneven when i explained that the cosmetic damage was also their problem, the rep told me that these headphones are solidly built and that he had never seen them come apart like this before.. however, i corrected him about that, and he did admit that they weren't solidly built, but he still claimed that there was no way for him to know whether i broke the plastic or the plastic broke on its ownnow, they want $200 to replace them.. cheaper than the $400 i initially paid, but in the end, they get to keep my broke ones, which they'll repair for $5 and resale for $400, and they get another $200 from me

not very sturdy plastic breaks easy

Actually they didn't sound bad (I'm not an audiophile, just an average guy), especially if you listen to heavy bass music, but the quality was poor (I mean this are pure plastic, can't get cheaper than that)

Meaning the plastic connecting the ear piece cracked and broke, exposing the wires of the headphone, leaving the ear piece danlging and detached

Strong plastics, good components, thick cord

, one of them didn't work well, so i compared the cables from my mixr and the studios, my mixrs cable felt more like rubber then plastic

The plastic around a few other areas has broken off too and it has only been 8 months

Ear pads fell apart twice, plastic broken so it no longer stays snug on your head

They're made with cheap, easily broken plastic

not very sturdy plastic breaks easy

The price is, as you can see, too expensive to be bought when you aren't using it often

Bass is hard hitting, but not as annoying as in the QC15

And the mods and highs were not nearly as crisp as you should have from a pair of $300 headphones

They do not perform nearly as well as at least two other over the ear headphones that I have owned.

It doesn't bother me as I can hear it only when there is no music or video playing

Great i like
