BetronBS10 Earphones Wired Headphones in Ear Noise Isolating Earbuds with Microphone and Volume Control Powerful Bass Driven Sound, 12mm Large Drivers, Ergonomic Design

I've had these for a little over a year now and these are the best budget wired headphones I've ever owned. They're definitely comfortable and I can wear them for hours without any discomfort. I have slightly large and mismatched ear canals so many other in-ear headphones do not work for me but I haven't had any issues with these. They stay in my ears and can even be painful if they're accidentally ripped from my ears, that's how well they conform to my ears.Sound quality is good, definitely above average for the price point. I listen to music and podcasts. Voices are clear and understandable even in slightly noisy environments. I'm not an audiophile but I enjoy music. The bass is fine, you can really hear it on songs like "Bad Guy" by Billie Eilish but most songs that don't really push the bass don't make much of an impact. The mids and hights are good so vocals are very clear. I don't think the average user would have any complaints about the sound quality unless they love overwhelming bass.The "noise cancellation" is just passive, relying on the shape of the earphone itself to block out sounds. I've found they do an okay job. If you're in a noisy environment you may have to turn up the volume in order to drown out sounds but I don't mind a little ambient noise coming in, in case someone calls me and I need to respond.The mic is probably between fine and good. I haven't had any complaints when I talk on the phone with someone. There is no noise cancellation on it so they will hear background noise if there is any but if you're in a quiet environment they shouldn't have any issues hearing you.The additional controls like pause and forward/backward only work on specific devices like phones that still have a headphone jack. My current phone does not have a headphone jack so these headphones are mainly for my computer and PS4, neither support the controls.Durability is good. These are my second Betron headphones, the first pair weren't ergonomic enough for me and hurt my ears after a couple hours. Nothing has gone wrong in my year+ of ownership. I've accidentally left my other Betron headphones in the wash and dryer and they came out just fine, fully functional, I don't see why these would be different.I would definitely recommend these to anyone that just needs comfortable no-frills headphones. These will get the job done and I don't think they'll break down on me anytime soon but if they do, for the price I'd buy it again in a heartbeat. As long as they keep selling these I doubt I'll ever get a different pair of wired headphones again.

Full bodied sound thanks to the 12mm drivers, metal construction, and other quality components. Betron has my attention and I look forward to researching their other items to see if anything else catches my eye.I listen to heavy metal, thrash, nu metal, industrial, and classic rock for the most part. For around $15, these exceeded my expectations. It's nice to have headphones that allow me to hear the bassists in songs where their tone can be lost with subpar phones. My gaming headset, over-ear Tritons, weren't expensive, but provide great frequency response and tone, whether it's in game action or music from my laptop.The bass is plentiful without being boomy or muddy. Mids are tight and vocals are clear. Highs are crisp without any hiss, unless you listen at full volume. Then, they sound a bit crap, so turn em down a bit. I clarify this below.These little buds are practically the same for about a third the price as my Tritons!They've got a mic, but no volume control, and I don't knock them for that. It would be nice to have, but they sound great and that's enough for me.If I had to mention a negative, and a very minor and obvious one at that. It would be that playing very aggressive and/or complex music at full volume produces some bottoming out and distortion. Lower the volume 15% and all is well. I again don't knock them for that, as I see that as user error and not a sign of poor quality, considering the price.In summary, for the price, they're some of the best you'll find, and that's a good thing! I'd recommend these for gifting or buying a few pairs to have in case you lose one or it gets damaged somehow.Remember, cheap does not always mean poor quality as expensive does not always equate to fine quality. It took me less than 5 mins of research to find these, after I bought a twin pack of crappy earbuds, with many high ratings(possibly fake reviews) for the same price as this single.
