  • The blue is a nice, although different color than the usual black.
  • I tried call support and was basically told "o well too bad", they refused to replace my product despite how much they cost and despite it having a physical defect in the product
  • The blue color is really vibrant, and hey, it's my favorite color.
  • I chose red because I loved the color - it's vibrant and stands out without being too bright

Reviews around product (3.12 of 5)

  • Apparently Sony knows this product is junk, so they couldn't even back it up with a decent warranty.
  • I do not think you get a good quality product for the price you will pay for them
  • All in all an excellent product and would definitely recommend.
  • Sony did offer a discount on a new pair of headphones, but it's hard to feel good about giving them more money after they refused to replace their shoddy product.
  • As so many have said, this product is made with extremely cheap products
