The head band is hard plastic, so it may not be able to withstand much long term abuse.

The sound you hear and inner mechanics will continue to work fine but the outer hard plastic shell is prone to cracking (or breaking if you're not handling it gently).

The hinge always breaks because it's held by a weak plastic housing

I'd give it 4 stars based on the features and sound quality but it loses a star solely on the plastic band that cracks after normal use.

I think the best summary of how bad these headphones are is this: I prefer the tiny earbud thing that came with my PS4 to this expensive plastic crap.

The plastic is a bit flimsy it snapped in half a week ago nothing that a bit of duck tape won't fix

Keeps breaking because they thought it would be a good idea to use hard plastic instead of aluminum

Works just as they should

I bought in December and they broke as I was pulling them off my head.

I just hate the fact that I now have to spend another $100 to get another pair since my warranty has been used up after they broke the SAME way on the SAME ear as they did not even 4 months ago.

Works as

this works okay, but not as well as it could because of the big con
