Marques’s reaction the whole time was like, When rich kids play with regular kids and they don’t want to be rude but they are obviously not impressed with their games.
Agreed. I mean, I get that he's used to nice quality headphones, but so am I, yet I don't make faces when listening to cheap headphones. I feel like he didn't adjust his expectations before starting this video, and ended up coming off a bit pretentious lol. When you're listening to a pair of $10 headphones, be satisfied that they make noise without hurting your ears.
That's a good point and a problem i run into a lot. While we may be used to high end headphones it doesn't necessarily make lower end headphones "bad", but i also find it ends up being a case of once you experience the high end, its nearly impossible to go back
I think I would make a face to bad quality headphones to be honest. Maybe not on camera though. I have headphones that make a weird hissing noise when connected and not playing audio and it still catches me off guard sometimes. Disappointing audio is disappointing. Although, I do agree that he is a bit spoiled
When my ten dollar headphones break I just buy new ones, no big deal. When my two hundred dollar headphones break I cry myself to sleep, then buy ten dollar headphones.

youtubers are out of touch with the normal people. They get free stuff all the time and assumes everyone can just afford $$$ stuff for everything and think people constantly upgrading their devices every year
if you want cheap but yet good (studio) headphones, then get the superlux hd861. they may be a bit quieter than your usual headphones, but also sound much better. funnily enough, they cost only 20 bucks
99% of people aren't stupid enough to pay extra for "new and improved." No different than idiots spending 1k every year for the newest more improved phone!
@@alexunlv Buying higher quality audio equipment because you want to hear your music better isn't really equivalent to buying a new phone just because it was released. Some people definitely take it uhhh... places, but the differences between
"new and improved" lmao Kiddo, there's audiophile-grade headphones that are still really popular in headphone enthusiast communities that were released before the 21st century (like the HD600); though most of all of the old headphones have slightly "upgraded" variants (where often the biggest update is the design honestly). With that said, the audiophile community is hardly about the kind of vanity of having a new phone, and it's almost never about having something as a social statement (unlike phones). It's 99% about actually chasing the best audio quality. With that said, some people definitely do spend waaaaay too much on it (and I say this as a pretty entry-level audiophile, with a pair of HD 598 SRs that I adore for what I've experienced they can give me above other headphones I've had in the past).
Ghosty that 99% is completely wrong as there are more than enough people that buy audiophile grade headphones. And it had nothing to do with price. What sounds good is good and what sounds bad is bad. Just Because some people are satisfied with objectivity shittier headphones doesn’t mean there’s something wrong with people that want more in terms of sound quality and build .
I would guess that's the MKBHD's Motorized Precision MIA robotic arm at work. Get the waypoints the way you want them to be, sit on that chair, swap the headphones each time you do the movement and - voila!
I think he just edited the different colors onto those earbuds. Really don't think he got up, switched colors, and then re-filmed it for every color lol. Although I wouldn't be surprised if he did because he's super detail oriented.
if he speak his mind, all of this will be considered shitty sound quality. but the target audience on this video is not for those audiophiles. if you so used to experience a higher sound quality products it will be hard to give good opinion on a low quality products.
How do you know who is the target audience for this? He just picked the best selling amazon headphones, tell the truth about them. There are similar priced ones with way better sound quality and if you're used to high quality headphones, you can notice stuff that non audiophiles can't, so tell them about it. Over 10 minute video and I didn't learn much apart from a company called Mpow exists.
he said it in the video, sound quality is the lowest priority. it was amazon best selling of course its not the best in terms of quality. it will go beyond that. affordable, and good enough for common use. i dont want to judge but maybe you're not used to how he reviews things. (this video not even stated it was full review). He just give his opinion on why this products is "the best selling" on amazon. he's not saying its a must buy for everyone. obviously it just "ok" enough and it works. i dont want to prolong this argument, if you're not agree with me, its fine.
Why is sound quality the lowest priority for headphones? I just said you can get similar priced headphones with better sound quality. Affordable is easy to show, just look at the price, doesn't need a 10+ minute video for it. There are headphones even cheaper than that which are good enough for common use. I've been watching him for over 5 years and he used to be way better. Now he makes mistakes and is scared to say what he thinks. His opinion of why they are the best selling was like a sentence for each in a 10+ minute video. I never said he told us that they're must buys, not sure why you mentioning that. If it's obvious enough that its "ok" enough and it works, why make a 10+ minute video on it? You have other tech reviewers doing a lot more in that time than MKB does. My opinion on these products hasn't changed at all from this. Let me ask you, what did you gain from this video?
dog dog That’s ridiculous, speak for yourself. People watch these videos for advice on quality and sound in headphones, and in my opinion Marques well earned his money.
aliwalyd3 lol Yes there are, Sennheiser mx 400 II, About 5-11$ the sound quality is great for the price but they look so cheap, feel cheap, and most of all they are very uncomfortable in you're ears and you can't use it more then 20 minutes but the sound is good.
But remember, it would have gotten you *one* pair of decent headphones. If you are the type of person to lose or break cheap headphones, you might have destroyed your expensive ones as well. I've had a pair of ATH-M50s for at least 6 years now, maybe longer. I've had to replace the cups, and the headband is completely peeled off, but they still sound great for studio use (they're not made for listening. They have a flat frequency response)
In this video, rich guy tries to figure out why most people buy inexpensive everyday use goods on amazon LOL Poor people care about sound quality Marques, they just can't afford the best tech AND eat everyday + pay rent
its sad to listen to this video because of that. also missing the point about air pods, people buy them yo show off and because its apple...not because of "experience wooo"
@@simplysaphi I bought super ugly sony earbuds for 220 bucks and people make fun of them. Didn't buy it to flex, bought it to listen to music. I can imagine people buying airpods for that reason too
@danny boy I don't wanted huge ass earphones, I wanted handy wireless buds that I can use anywhere. Sennheiser buds could've been an option but the Sony WF1000XM3 was the best thing you could buy at the time, the Sennheiser Momentum true wireless 2 came out a few weeks later. A lot of people wear headphones at school but it's more a thing for the introverted kids that don't talk to anybody
Yup,. That's why it's good to read/watch reviews from various sources to assist in your decision. Once you've made your decision Amazon is helpful to find a low cost.
Actually quite a lot millionaires wouldn't be able to tell the difference in audio quality between 30$ headphones and 2000$ headphones, so yeah, sure, this guy is a millionaire trying out peasant headphones.
No offence to MKBHD, but I don't think that laptops are really his niche. I don't think he has enough experience with that type of product compared to say, LinusTechTips or Dave2D to give a fully balanced review. His expertise is really in phones, cameras and audio devices.
Most people were complaining about how MK sounded like a rich snob, in which he didn’t, however some felt as if he was talking down because of they way he spoke about the products.
He just saying for the price they are poor. Well they are bound to be as the component parts are cheaper, that part is obvious, what he should be focussing on is the pound for pound nature of the device.
I read through the comments and here’s the likely reason this series has been discontinued; 1). Apparently, many people felt Marques was ‘talking down’ to them or sounded like some wealthy, snobbish elitist. 2). Marques’ income is due (in large part) to the number of viewers his channel receives. 3). Obviously, he doesn’t want to alienate viewers, he wants to attract them. 4). Being a tech & video guy, Marques checks the data, realizes something ‘looks off’ and makes an adjustment. Voila’! I’m 1️⃣ 🤔 🍪.
This pisses me off so much because these videos were some of my favourites to watch but everyone was just taking it so badly and getting offended... obviously a guy who is used to high end speakers and headphones is not going to be impressed by some $10 earbuds from amazon. Was that a surprise to anybody? Apparently...
@@endi3386 The presentation still comes off badly to some people, since they are the people buying this kind of stuff, so someone used to much more expensive things even seeming like they're talking down to them can rub people the wrong way. But, the comment section here is mostly immaterial, it's a 2.3mil viewcount video, with 56k Likes and 2.5k Dislikes, that's an excellent ratio. However, the viewcount is on the low end for him for content like this, despite being a good Like/Dislike ratio, the Dislike is still higher than a lot of his other videos, but most importantly, the Like is actually quite a bit lower than his regular videos, showing much lower engagement overall. So he may have needed to approach this differently(maybe far more products in a small time frame, minute reviews style as an example or something else) or just drop it completely and try new things or focus on what works. But you do have a point tho, wouldn't be surprised if MB checked the comments and saw people saying he's coming off as snobbish and realises that his reputation and history actually hurts covering budget offerings, or at least that people think it does.
I've been massively sweating in my mpow over ear headset for 6 months. They've been dropped and left in car heat. I've carefully bent the pads to fit on my fat head so they aren't tight. They are hands down most utility headphones to date. I've purchased 4 extra just in case. I RARELY compliment manufacturers on their products. MPOW deserves your money.
AKASH PATEL AKASH PATEL Come on brother, Just because you can afford a top of the line electronics like, lets just say, a 15 inch Macbook doesn't mean that everyone one can afford expensive tech. Sometimes "we" look for stuff that just get things done at the cheapest price possible.
Eldhose Jacob brother he said that we Indians are cheap AF.... common man.. that's not fair... that sentence goes with double meaning... That's why I replied.
Marques, just wondering what's the music tracklist for the small song snippets for each headphone test? Answered by thanks to Robkimball and E-Jay Hylton 4:17, Rough by Jordyn Edmonds 6:08, Family Matters by Jordyn Edmonds 8:30, Under The Water by AllttA
I love the MPOW red and black. I have three of them in my house. They are good and functional without breaking the bank. Also my kids love them. It is also light weight. Thank you.
This is the biggest reason why people buy cheap earbuds. These are your disposable earbuds that you're willing to lose or break. Marques is an organized guy so he probably doesn't lose things that much but for disorganized people cheap earbuds mean you can lose them and it won't be that big of a deal.
As someone who has had both expensive and inexpensive headphones and earphones, it's just about justifying price for time used. I'm not mixing or editing precise sound, so I don't need studio quality headphones. I just want something that works, lasts, and when it inevitably breaks, I'm not sweating bullets because it cost $50 instead of $250.
Some friends asked me why I use my old white color earbuds that came with my S7 instead to use the AKG earbuds that came with my Note 8. The answer is simple, it is because those old earbuds are so rugged (resists falls etc) and easier to untangle then the AKG model. I don't need a high-end sound quality when I just want to watch a UA-cam video or listen to some music while in at the gym or in a restaurant. What I need is some thing cheap but resistant and it is easy to carry around and quick to be able to untangle it.
@@Herr.Mitternacht you sound bitter. A lot of people buy expensive headphones which is why SONY and BEATS continue to do well.. He reviews all kinds of headphones, there are plenty of channels that are dedicated to just budget headphones. Not sure what you want Marcus to do if you only want cheap headphones, all he CAN do is give his opinion on the audio quality of the ones he reviews. No more than that
@@Herr.Mitternacht Its not his job to "get that" and I think its interesting that out of all the reviewers for high end headphones you decided to pick him for your self righteous frustration. Again all you can expect is a review on product, asking him go "keep the pockets of the world" in mind is extremely daft, also just because some people want something cheap doesn't mean they want shitty quality hence these kind of reviews. Anyway like I already said the whole "spoiled rich kid with no sense of reality" rhetoric told me what I needed to know. You haven't and wouldn't say this on other channels doing and saying the same thing. Good day.
I've had the Panasonic Ergo-fit headphones for around 5-5.5 years now. The only reason why i bought them was because from user reviews, they were the only ones who's mic worked properly with LG Nexus 4. I've been in love with them ever since i got them. Yes they are damn cheap but they sound better than quite a lot of headphones that cost twice or thrice their price. They've been my go-to headphones since the day I got them. I've bought Audio Technica, Skullcandy, House of Marley, etc headphones costing way more than these but still I love the sound these produce. Others might be bass heavy or leaning towards treble more, but these sound absolutely great. I watched this video using these exact same pair of headphones. I've ordered/suggested/recommended these headphones for my friends/colleagues & even they love them. Super comfortable, great sound & very durable. One of the main reasons why they are so comfortable to wear even for hours continuously is that their ear pieces are oval & not round. They fit really really well into the ear-canal. Definite buy for people.
i have some all black ankers..dont know the model# but they are BT and sound pretty reasonable (somewhat flat with a slight emphasis on bass..very slight) for $34 or whatever they were..battery lasts about 6 hours id estimate
They definitely dont look as good as them. They are a lot bulkier. However for their price their sound quality is amazing. Beats are over priced for its quality unlike these.
koolstup I’ve been using those Ergofits for a long time. They have pretty good bass. I’d call it average it’s not overpowering but it is definitely there. There is a reason they’re the number one selling
Those Panasonic earbuds can be/have been found on audiophile websites for years now. They’re considered to be some of the best sounding earbuds under $50. I personally have owned multiple pairs of them over the years. Definitely good to have around when you need an extra pair of earbuds that sound pretty good.
The panasonics have been my go-to earbuds outside my house for years. Cheap, do the job, and spotify lets you toggle around the equalizer to get 80% of the way there compared to earbudes 10x as expensive.
Ditto mbdl, I have 5 pairs of these from various years, and none have broken. Very good sound. Also, they are great for falling asleep to a music (or better yet, a podcast), because they are fully in the ear.
“If they’re asking for beats headphones” then you need to stop right there and educate them of what REAL sound is and real headphones are and not some overpriced garbage headphones like Beats
Was thinking that to my self. 300 bucks for a pair of beats.....or....150 for Audio Technica M50x, which sounds way better, buiilt better and look cooler(my opinion). Or 200 for the bluetooth version. With that savings you could even get a little portable DAC to use with your phone or computer to complete the package.
@@electricant55 Because I was making a quick example off the top of my head...for headphones that are better value for money than Beat$. I want neither cause I have Audeze LCD-2c's. I have all the headphones I'll ever need. For travel I only want Bluetooth...and I think the m50xBT could be a good way to go...or Sennheiser hd4.40..
I totally get why these are the most sold, to use in the gym I go for something affordable and comfortable rather than something actually good, mostly due to the higher death rate for headphones at the gym
If your headphones are dying at the gym then maybe buy a pair that are MEANT to be used at the gym? Like that are actually sweat proof? Jesus christ I see some idiots around man. I see people walk into a steam sauna with full on over-ear Beats and other large headphones. THEY ARE NOT WATER PROOF. STEAM IS WATER. THEY WILL BREAK. God.
defeatereater wow, I didn't know water proof meant they survive being tossed around in a bag, falling on the ground and being stepped on or being snapped by a barbell. I must really be an idiot, thank god you're here to enlighten us
I have those MPOW wireless headphones and definitely recommend them. They probably wouldn't be very durable if you threw them across a room (but would you really do that with a $200 pair of headphones?), but at that price they're practically disposable, have great sound quality, have a battery that lasts forever, and have a great interface. I use them with an iPhone and don't experience that "hiss sound" he mentions... not sure what he's talking about.
I'm listening on an older version of the Panasonic Ergofits right now. I've had them as my beater pair in my backpack for 2 years. The cord has never broken or even started peeling, and they sound just as good as they did out of the box. Only problem is the eartips, the rubber starts to fall apart a little after 2 years of abuse.
Same. I've used 3 pairs of Panasonic Ergofits for the past 5+ years: wonderfully priced, decent sound, pretty durable - i am not nice to my headphones, good mic. I recommend to anyone looking to get their money's worth (I think MKB quoted the price for the no-mic version though...)
One thing over learned is that when you review “cheap” things, treat it like you’re reviewing something expensive. If you come in with the attitude that it’s crap... well you’re most likely gonna have a bad impression of what the product is. If you come into it with the mindset that it’s comparable to expensive headphones you’re more likely to pick up on the good and bad better, rather than just assuming everything is bad.
It doesn't really make much difference. If someone is used to really high end stuff obviously the really low end stuff will seem bad in comparison. I mean even without a comparison they don't sound good. Everyone is getting so offended by the truth - I get that lots of people can't afford high end audio gear but that doesn't change the objective fact that a lot of it doesn't sound good.
gmartirosyan I got them they are ok but comparing to xiaomi they are crap, ok xiaomi is almost 16€ which is double the price Try the rock zircon you can find them on aliexpress or some chinese website They go out of stock very fast but your u don’t have to come wait much to get them Let me know what do you think about them :-) Remember to burn them for 2 to 3 jours with white noise or other music
I've been using low-midrange headphones all my life ($40-60). They don't feel or sound like crap, and won't break the bank when you need to replace them.
That's the issue though is that you have never spent the extra money for a much better experience. It's not that the headphones you have aren't good to you it's just that you've never heard any better.
@@rabbidpotatoegaming4514 And what do you get if you listen to your music a little better? Not much, cuz most people wouldn't care anyway and would rather spend money on other stuff
The Samsung EHS64 earphones are honestly the cheapest and best sounding earphones in that price category. They are also surprisingly durable. Trust me. Just try them. They are wayyy too good for the price.
I just order like 5 pairs for a couple of bucks, when they break i nust get a new pair. I only watch UA-cam with these so sound quality isn't really a importance
I Finn yo me too. I have a few pairs mainly because I almost always end up with a pair in washer. But they're really good. I own some much higher end earbuds but my Panasonics are always with me.
I lose earbuds constantly so my solution was to buy a pair for every one of my coats and backpacks and leave them there when I'm done using either. So far so good. Only exception is my computer pair (which I use the most). Great buds for the price.
big boi44 it’s not that long though, it’s slowed down more than likely and he just has to put on each different pair and tell the arm to redo the shot again while he’s standing in the same spot.
The Panasonic earphones are way better than they have any right to be. I can say with much certainty that they are one of, if not the best earphones under $50 (I've tried a lot looking for a replacement, none beat it's clarity). Also although they don't look durable, they are. I fall asleep with them, my chair wheels roll over them, and I only have to replace them every 6 months to a year.
Agreed, I too have yet to find sub50$ buds that compare. The only buds that I own that are clearly superior are the OnePlus Bullets which are nearly as comfortable (although not quite), sound better and have a better mic unit (combines volume control AND play control) and are more durable. Since they are hard to get because of shipping cost, I have one pair of bullets and about 5 pairs of Panasonics. They are truly excellent and their QC is great. They rarely break.
I actually bought the Sony ones along with another highly rated pair (basically bought the top 3 earphones under $50) but I didn't like them, they felt muffled in comparison. I dislike the lack of bass with the Panasonic but I value clarity more than bass so I prefer them. My opinion though based on the things I listen to (not really bass heavy music), I can understand why others would prefer the Sony ones.
I grabbed a pair of MPOW bluetooth "exercise" earbuds a few years ago for around $20 & they sounded surprisingly good. They're durable and because they're connected to each other with a cord if one falls out while I'm cycling I can just put it back rather than trying find it first. Worst case I lose them, it's an easy replacement. Also, they're so easy to pair that anything that claims it needs to be easier is like the infomercial where people can't use soap correctly & NEED a special motion-activated soap dispenser at home.
I'd pick the wireless one, they the best on the table, but what about the best ones to buy for each budget, cause earbuds are just so annoying, no body talks about that
I own KZ ZST from gearbest that cost me $15, and they are incredible for the price. Also had VSonic GR6 for around $40, seemed to be loved by everybody, absolutely hated them, KZ beats them in everything but accessories.
I have the Panasonic ones for over a year now (I didn’t even buy them, I just got them from my father that didn’t use them anymore, so they are older) and I can absolutely verify that they are surprisingly the most durable headphones I have ever used. They are my “beater” headphones and have endured a great amount of use and abuse. Further more the sound volume and quality are great for the price. Definitely a good investment if you are looking for a cheap pair of headphones. Definitely way ahead from the competition in this price range.
I really like the $9 earbuds. I've bought 3 pairs consecutively over 2 years, so they last about 8 months before they break. $9 bucks every 8 months for earbuds that sound fine is a good deal to me. Honestly the worst part about them is the tangling.
I have had the MPOW 059 for 2 years now. They are decent for non audiophiles, that want cheap decent sound with bluetooth. Dont forget these can plug in with a jack too if your battery dies. That hiss tho, it sucks! I have gotten used to it. But when I want to hear music in good quality I got my Sennheiser's
Dude, you've underestimated Panasonic's. I do have Harman kardon on ear headphones, also powerbeats 3 and those Panasonic's. Guess what? Panasonic's beat powerbeats soundwise and durability wise. They beat airpods by far. They are absurdly good for the price and you just can't break them. Even that strange calbe is durable as f*ck
i’ve had my panasonic for 2 years. I bought a pair and then found my old pair and the old ones (which have gone through the washing machine many times) sound the same as the new pair! They are a great pair of earbuds
Honestly, I'd live with the over ears, simply because they'd probably be the more comfy option. Plus I've had a couple instances where the buds on in-ears have come off when taking them out of my ears. And I can't stress enough how much of a panic that can be.
Hey, what about comparing these best sellers to a cheap alternative YOU picked out and tell us the difference say an extra 10$ for the "Anker Slim+" would make? So that being best seller isnt always what gives you the best bang for the buck.
I have the Mpow Flames wireless earbuds, audio quality is good for what you pay, they do have options for the bud cover, 3 sizes of rubber plus memory foam covers for added base and noise canceling. I use them at work for listening to podcasts and low music, very worth the money!
Currently watching this with my mpow 059 headphones. I see why they are the top over ear headphone on amazon. I've had them for about 2 years and I use them a lot. It's not unusual for me to wear them for 8 to 10 hours in a single day just listening to the radio or a podcast quietly in the background while doing stuff like cleaning the fish tank, doing yard work, etc. They have only recently started to break from this ultra heavy usage. They seem fairly easy to fix too, so I am just gonna order some parts and fix them. 10/10! Great headphones! Edit: I also like how they can use a 3.5 mm jack in addition to Bluetooth.
I've personally been using the Panasonic earphones for over a year now and I love them. Like he mentioned they make sound and are convenient which I would not argue with. I have never had the fortune of listening to sound with super expensive earphones so I don't know what top of the range quality sounds like so for me these are perfect. Also they are actually quite durable, I bought 2 pairs (one for casual use and the other for sleeping) and they both lasted around a year before I needed to replace the ones I sleep with, but for only like 5 quid I really don't mind. They are very comfortable in my ears but some of my friends don't like them so it's up to preference. Other than that they are by far my favourite earphone I have used!
Matt Sherbert if you're sleeping with ear phones try something with in-ear headphones like Shure SE series design.. very comfortable for sleeping purposes
Ptrck Caresosa i don't know if i have looked at the right Shure headphones, but they like ten times as expensive as the Panasonic ones, that's hardly worth it
I hear your take on why people buy these cheap ones in such large quantities. For me, I ended up with the $10.00 Panasonic after far too many Apple Earbuds that stopped working. For $10.00, the Panasonic worked reliably, I could pull them without dismembering them, I could sit on them without tearing them apart. Good enough to do the job and solid enough to last I believe that equates to VALUE. .

Garet Eliot 100%. If you said it perfect
That's a good point and a problem i run into a lot. While we may be used to high end headphones it doesn't necessarily make lower end headphones "bad", but i also find it ends up being a case of once you experience the high end, its nearly impossible to go back
AndroidApps exactly!! Best comment!!😂😂
I think I would make a face to bad quality headphones to be honest. Maybe not on camera though. I have headphones that make a weird hissing noise when connected and not playing audio and it still catches me off guard sometimes. Disappointing audio is disappointing. Although, I do agree that he is a bit spoiled
When my ten dollar headphones break I just buy new ones, no big deal. When my two hundred dollar headphones break I cry myself to sleep, then buy ten dollar headphones.

Kiddo, there's audiophile-grade headphones that are still really popular in headphone enthusiast communities that were released before the 21st century (like the HD600); though most of all of the old headphones have slightly "upgraded" variants (where often the biggest update is the design honestly). With that said, the audiophile community is hardly about the kind of vanity of having a new phone, and it's almost never about having something as a social statement (unlike phones).

I would guess that's the MKBHD's Motorized Precision MIA robotic arm at work. Get the waypoints the way you want them to be, sit on that chair, swap the headphones each time you do the movement and - voila!
I Knew that was MIA instantly. Well shot!
I think he just edited the different colors onto those earbuds. Really don't think he got up, switched colors, and then re-filmed it for every color lol. Although I wouldn't be surprised if he did because he's super detail oriented.
YESS I was watching it and thinking this while reading your comment 😂
Spooky Psyche No you can see his head slightly shift each time, he just did the camera movement 4 times each with different earbuds on.
Reasons why they are best sellers:
One: They are cheap
Two: They look like beats
End of video
@Nalia Wolfie Yes, yes they do! lol
they also make iphone 11 audio sound tinny
Mkbhd finally landed on the earth 😅. He now reviews normal things.😅
Hardly even a review, same MKB shit. Doesn't speak his mind. How many times did he say they sound functional? Just tell us straight, they sound bad.
if he speak his mind, all of this will be considered shitty sound quality. but the target audience on this video is not for those audiophiles. if you so used to experience a higher sound quality products it will be hard to give good opinion on a low quality products.
How do you know who is the target audience for this? He just picked the best selling amazon headphones, tell the truth about them. There are similar priced ones with way better sound quality and if you're used to high quality headphones, you can notice stuff that non audiophiles can't, so tell them about it. Over 10 minute video and I didn't learn much apart from a company called Mpow exists.
he said it in the video, sound quality is the lowest priority. it was amazon best selling of course its not the best in terms of quality. it will go beyond that. affordable, and good enough for common use. i dont want to judge but maybe you're not used to how he reviews things. (this video not even stated it was full review). He just give his opinion on why this products is "the best selling" on amazon. he's not saying its a must buy for everyone. obviously it just "ok" enough and it works. i dont want to prolong this argument, if you're not agree with me, its fine.
Why is sound quality the lowest priority for headphones? I just said you can get similar priced headphones with better sound quality. Affordable is easy to show, just look at the price, doesn't need a 10+ minute video for it. There are headphones even cheaper than that which are good enough for common use. I've been watching him for over 5 years and he used to be way better. Now he makes mistakes and is scared to say what he thinks. His opinion of why they are the best selling was like a sentence for each in a 10+ minute video. I never said he told us that they're must buys, not sure why you mentioning that. If it's obvious enough that its "ok" enough and it works, why make a 10+ minute video on it? You have other tech reviewers doing a lot more in that time than MKB does. My opinion on these products hasn't changed at all from this. Let me ask you, what did you gain from this video?
When he insults your earphones
dog dog That’s ridiculous, speak for yourself. People watch these videos for advice on quality and sound in headphones, and in my opinion Marques well earned his money.
I think low on the list was bad phrasing. I think what people want most is the best sound quality for their budget.
*After reading this* marques "that was the last ep. Of prime picks"
aliwalyd3 lol Yes there are, Sennheiser mx 400 II, About 5-11$ the sound quality is great for the price but they look so cheap, feel cheap, and most of all they are very uncomfortable in you're ears and you can't use it more then 20 minutes but the sound is good.
Hello cheapskate
The total amount of money i've spent getting cheap headphones could have gotten me decent or good headphones.
Get the ATH-M50X. You will adore every minute you use them.
Carlos I can attest to that.
But remember, it would have gotten you *one* pair of decent headphones. If you are the type of person to lose or break cheap headphones, you might have destroyed your expensive ones as well.
I've had a pair of ATH-M50s for at least 6 years now, maybe longer. I've had to replace the cups, and the headband is completely peeled off, but they still sound great for studio use (they're not made for listening. They have a flat frequency response)
Tinashe Togara that’s why I broke the cycle of buying shit headphones 2 years ago.
Carlos as a user of m50x’s, the sennheisers are so much more comfortable. I’d give up my m50x for a HD598 CS any day of the year
In this video, rich guy tries to figure out why most people buy inexpensive everyday use goods on amazon LOL
Poor people care about sound quality Marques, they just can't afford the best tech AND eat everyday + pay rent
its sad to listen to this video because of that. also missing the point about air pods, people buy them yo show off and because its apple...not because of "experience wooo"
@@simplysaphi I bought super ugly sony earbuds for 220 bucks and people make fun of them. Didn't buy it to flex, bought it to listen to music. I can imagine people buying airpods for that reason too
@danny boy I don't wanted huge ass earphones, I wanted handy wireless buds that I can use anywhere. Sennheiser buds could've been an option but the Sony WF1000XM3 was the best thing you could buy at the time, the Sennheiser Momentum true wireless 2 came out a few weeks later. A lot of people wear headphones at school but it's more a thing for the introverted kids that don't talk to anybody
Skittz what, I won AirPods in a giveaway and I don’t flex them plus you can just buy them

It isn't easy to pick the right stuff from Amazon!
Redskull I love your videos ♥
Hi Alex!
Is the one plus 6 your daily driver?
KZ ed9
Yup,. That's why it's good to read/watch reviews from various sources to assist in your decision. Once you've made your decision Amazon is helpful to find a low cost.
The title shoudl've been "Millionaire tries peasant's headphones" lol. That's what you made the video feel like
Yep, I'm not sure his reviews are even useful for me.
I got that same vibe
Same here.
Actually quite a lot millionaires wouldn't be able to tell the difference in audio quality between 30$ headphones and 2000$ headphones, so yeah, sure, this guy is a millionaire trying out peasant headphones.
I agree
LAPTOPS NEXT!!!!!
Samuels Football thought they only use MacBooks at DIA
yessss
Idk if you looking at gaming but the msi laptop is really good.
No offence to MKBHD, but I don't think that laptops are really his niche. I don't think he has enough experience with that type of product compared to say, LinusTechTips or Dave2D to give a fully balanced review. His expertise is really in phones, cameras and audio devices.
Dave2D will do that. 😂
What happened to this series man?
I agree, Marques's reviewing style is perfect for amazon picks. It's a good way to break from the smartphone reviews, too.
Lol he couldn’t handle this cheap garbage in comparison to all the nice expensive products he’s used to
Most people were complaining about how MK sounded like a rich snob, in which he didn’t, however some felt as if he was talking down because of they way he spoke about the products.
Eric Tao no, it’s because of the viewers
He just saying for the price they are poor. Well they are bound to be as the component parts are cheaper, that part is obvious, what he should be focussing on is the pound for pound nature of the device.
Prime picks I like it.
ExamDad I would've preferred Prime Time ):
I voted for prime time too
You shouldn't. Amazon is cancer.
Lol i voted for prime picks... That poll was useless though!
Cynima Rapscallion
Why tho
Thank you for reviewing headphones for normal people
Mmmmm idk if these are for “normal” people. Especially the ergo fit.
Agreed.
You Mean Cheap People. If I Cared About Headphones That Much I'd Be Copping The Bose. But I'm Perfectly Fine With The Earpods.
Malik Fortenberry > if you cared about NOISE CANCELLING headphones you'd care about Bose... thats about it tho
Normal people prioritize sound quality first because ffs you buy them to listen not for durability and comford
I read through the comments and here’s the likely reason this series has been discontinued;
1). Apparently, many people felt Marques was ‘talking down’ to them or sounded like some wealthy, snobbish elitist.
2). Marques’ income is due (in large part) to the number of viewers his channel receives.
3). Obviously, he doesn’t want to alienate viewers, he wants to attract them.
4). Being a tech & video guy, Marques checks the data, realizes something ‘looks off’ and makes an adjustment. Voila’!
I’m 1️⃣ 🤔 🍪.
This pisses me off so much because these videos were some of my favourites to watch but everyone was just taking it so badly and getting offended... obviously a guy who is used to high end speakers and headphones is not going to be impressed by some $10 earbuds from amazon. Was that a surprise to anybody? Apparently...
@@endi3386 The presentation still comes off badly to some people, since they are the people buying this kind of stuff, so someone used to much more expensive things even seeming like they're talking down to them can rub people the wrong way. But, the comment section here is mostly immaterial, it's a 2.3mil viewcount video, with 56k Likes and 2.5k Dislikes, that's an excellent ratio.
However, the viewcount is on the low end for him for content like this, despite being a good Like/Dislike ratio, the Dislike is still higher than a lot of his other videos, but most importantly, the Like is actually quite a bit lower than his regular videos, showing much lower engagement overall.
So he may have needed to approach this differently(maybe far more products in a small time frame, minute reviews style as an example or something else) or just drop it completely and try new things or focus on what works. But you do have a point tho, wouldn't be surprised if MB checked the comments and saw people saying he's coming off as snobbish and realises that his reputation and history actually hurts covering budget offerings, or at least that people think it does.
I've been massively sweating in my mpow over ear headset for 6 months. They've been dropped and left in car heat. I've carefully bent the pads to fit on my fat head so they aren't tight. They are hands down most utility headphones to date. I've purchased 4 extra just in case. I RARELY compliment manufacturers on their products. MPOW deserves your money.
I can see something really good coming out of these series

AKASH PATEL AKASH PATEL Come on brother, Just because you can afford a top of the line electronics like, lets just say, a 15 inch Macbook doesn't mean that everyone one can afford expensive tech. Sometimes "we" look for stuff that just get things done at the cheapest price possible.

How do they sound?
They make sounds......
The biggest thing I love about those Panasonic earbuds is that they get neither distorted nor harsh at high volumes. They just sound louder.
Missing that ppl are not willing to pay for something that they consider recyclable or "loseable"
Lose em or break em? No problem, just buy a couple of pairs, still way cheaper than anything else.
This is the biggest reason why people buy cheap earbuds. These are your disposable earbuds that you're willing to lose or break. Marques is an organized guy so he probably doesn't lose things that much but for disorganized people cheap earbuds mean you can lose them and it won't be that big of a deal.
Subscribe fani&tech channel
As someone who has had both expensive and inexpensive headphones and earphones, it's just about justifying price for time used. I'm not mixing or editing precise sound, so I don't need studio quality headphones. I just want something that works, lasts, and when it inevitably breaks, I'm not sweating bullets because it cost $50 instead of $250.
I'm a noise cancelling fiend. I've a set of Bose QC20, QC30 & QC35. Never lost anything. And I fall asleep with them so they are not babied.

Some friends asked me why I use my old white color earbuds that came with my S7 instead to use the AKG earbuds that came with my Note 8. The answer is simple, it is because those old earbuds are so rugged (resists falls etc) and easier to untangle then the AKG model. I don't need a high-end sound quality when I just want to watch a UA-cam video or listen to some music while in at the gym or in a restaurant. What I need is some thing cheap but resistant and it is easy to carry around and quick to be able to untangle it.
we buy cheap headphones because we are broke
what should he do about that?
@@Herr.Mitternacht you sound bitter. A lot of people buy expensive headphones which is why SONY and BEATS continue to do well.. He reviews all kinds of headphones, there are plenty of channels that are dedicated to just budget headphones. Not sure what you want Marcus to do if you only want cheap headphones, all he CAN do is give his opinion on the audio quality of the ones he reviews. No more than that
@@Herr.Mitternacht Its not his job to "get that" and I think its interesting that out of all the reviewers for high end headphones you decided to pick him for your self righteous frustration. Again all you can expect is a review on product, asking him go "keep the pockets of the world" in mind is extremely daft, also just because some people want something cheap doesn't mean they want shitty quality hence these kind of reviews. Anyway like I already said the whole "spoiled rich kid with no sense of reality" rhetoric told me what I needed to know. You haven't and wouldn't say this on other channels doing and saying the same thing. Good day.
I've had the Panasonic Ergo-fit headphones for around 5-5.5 years now. The only reason why i bought them was because from user reviews, they were the only ones who's mic worked properly with LG Nexus 4. I've been in love with them ever since i got them. Yes they are damn cheap but they sound better than quite a lot of headphones that cost twice or thrice their price. They've been my go-to headphones since the day I got them. I've bought Audio Technica, Skullcandy, House of Marley, etc headphones costing way more than these but still I love the sound these produce. Others might be bass heavy or leaning towards treble more, but these sound absolutely great. I watched this video using these exact same pair of headphones. I've ordered/suggested/recommended these headphones for my friends/colleagues & even they love them. Super comfortable, great sound & very durable. One of the main reasons why they are so comfortable to wear even for hours continuously is that their ear pieces are oval & not round. They fit really really well into the ear-canal. Definite buy for people.
Anker are my go to earphones for bluetooth
boxertest how they sound and what model is it?
boxertest Anker Soundbuds Slim are awesome headphones
i have some all black ankers..dont know the model# but they are BT and sound pretty reasonable (somewhat flat with a slight emphasis on bass..very slight) for $34 or whatever they were..battery lasts about 6 hours id estimate
Anker all day baby. I have a few anker related products. Best bang for your buck.
Anker is the best
I'm using the Panasonic earbud right now
rakeeb hossain how are they?
KINGZ 724, I highly recommend them. Make sure to get the pair with a microphone.

me too, what color?
I use skull candy
aka people bought the Mpow headphones because they looks like Beats...
They definitely dont look as good as them. They are a lot bulkier. However for their price their sound quality is amazing. Beats are over priced for its quality unlike these.

Try getting any bass out of cheap earbuds 😟
koolstup I’ve been using those Ergofits for a long time. They have pretty good bass. I’d call it average it’s not overpowering but it is definitely there. There is a reason they’re the number one selling
techshaman I’m foreign, ok. Haha
Those Panasonic earbuds can be/have been found on audiophile websites for years now. They’re considered to be some of the best sounding earbuds under $50. I personally have owned multiple pairs of them over the years. Definitely good to have around when you need an extra pair of earbuds that sound pretty good.
The panasonics have been my go-to earbuds outside my house for years. Cheap, do the job, and spotify lets you toggle around the equalizer to get 80% of the way there compared to earbudes 10x as expensive.
Ditto mbdl, I have 5 pairs of these from various years, and none have broken. Very good sound. Also, they are great for falling asleep to a music (or better yet, a podcast), because they are fully in the ear.
Owned loads of them and they sound good can't go wrong for the money.
i have em too and they are better than most 40~ dollar headphones
I'm pretty sure the version with a mic sounds worse than the other pair without.
“If they’re asking for beats headphones” then you need to stop right there and educate them of what REAL sound is and real headphones are and not some overpriced garbage headphones like Beats
Since beats was bought by apple, their quality is much better
Was thinking that to my self. 300 bucks for a pair of beats.....or....150 for Audio Technica M50x, which sounds way better, buiilt better and look cooler(my opinion). Or 200 for the bluetooth version. With that savings you could even get a little portable DAC to use with your phone or computer to complete the package.
@@MrR2185 Why pay for M50x when M40x are half the price and sound 10 times better?
@@electricant55 Because I was making a quick example off the top of my head...for headphones that are better value for money than Beat$. I want neither cause I have Audeze LCD-2c's. I have all the headphones I'll ever need. For travel I only want Bluetooth...and I think the m50xBT could be a good way to go...or Sennheiser hd4.40..
@@electricant55 why get the m40x when the ws1100is are cheaper, better looking, more comforrablr and better sounding?
I totally get why these are the most sold, to use in the gym I go for something affordable and comfortable rather than something actually good, mostly due to the higher death rate for headphones at the gym
Plus I lost my more expensive beats twice at the gym. These are cheaper to replace.
If your headphones are dying at the gym then maybe buy a pair that are MEANT to be used at the gym? Like that are actually sweat proof? Jesus christ I see some idiots around man. I see people walk into a steam sauna with full on over-ear Beats and other large headphones. THEY ARE NOT WATER PROOF. STEAM IS WATER. THEY WILL BREAK. God.
defeatereater wow, I didn't know water proof meant they survive being tossed around in a bag, falling on the ground and being stepped on or being snapped by a barbell.
I must really be an idiot, thank god you're here to enlighten us
I have those MPOW wireless headphones and definitely recommend them. They probably wouldn't be very durable if you threw them across a room (but would you really do that with a $200 pair of headphones?), but at that price they're practically disposable, have great sound quality, have a battery that lasts forever, and have a great interface. I use them with an iPhone and don't experience that "hiss sound" he mentions... not sure what he's talking about.
Subzero Arctics I also have them also the audio saounds fine too me not thru a bed sheet
Same. the sound is awesome for me
Good to read this. I just got 2 of them. Will be delivery on tuesday.
Subzero Arctics I have the sound but it’s only noticeable in a silent room.
I second this. I got these 3 months ago for my daily commute into NYC. Sound is decent, battery lasts forever. Definitely get them.
I'm listening on an older version of the Panasonic Ergofits right now. I've had them as my beater pair in my backpack for 2 years. The cord has never broken or even started peeling, and they sound just as good as they did out of the box. Only problem is the eartips, the rubber starts to fall apart a little after 2 years of abuse.
My friend washed them in washing machine and they still work.
Mali Ivica same. I washed them by accident and they still work. Sounds quality is okay, I really like them lol.
Same thing u just commented. The cable is strong. I've had mine for over a year. Daily usage
Same. I've used 3 pairs of Panasonic Ergofits for the past 5+ years: wonderfully priced, decent sound, pretty durable - i am not nice to my headphones, good mic. I recommend to anyone looking to get their money's worth (I think MKB quoted the price for the no-mic version though...)
I accidentally washed mine and they are ruined now lol
One thing over learned is that when you review “cheap” things, treat it like you’re reviewing something expensive. If you come in with the attitude that it’s crap... well you’re most likely gonna have a bad impression of what the product is. If you come into it with the mindset that it’s comparable to expensive headphones you’re more likely to pick up on the good and bad better, rather than just assuming everything is bad.
It doesn't really make much difference. If someone is used to really high end stuff obviously the really low end stuff will seem bad in comparison. I mean even without a comparison they don't sound good. Everyone is getting so offended by the truth - I get that lots of people can't afford high end audio gear but that doesn't change the objective fact that a lot of it doesn't sound good.
These are
Panasonic Ergos are really good! I like them!
yea but they break all the time
Z U C C they were 3-5$ a few years back. You could buy 5 for the price of any other earbuds

I've been using low-midrange headphones all my life ($40-60). They don't feel or sound like crap, and won't break the bank when you need to replace them.
Beats are shit. 90% marketing.
That's the issue though is that you have never spent the extra money for a much better experience. It's not that the headphones you have aren't good to you it's just that you've never heard any better.
@@rabbidpotatoegaming4514 And what do you get if you listen to your music a little better? Not much, cuz most people wouldn't care anyway and would rather spend money on other stuff
I mean, 720p was fine until you experienced 1080p. 1080p was fine until you experienced 4k. Better sound quality definitely adds to the music.

PLEASE continue this series! I just found these videos and I’m sad there’s only 2:(
The Samsung EHS64 earphones are honestly the cheapest and best sounding earphones in that price category. They are also surprisingly durable. Trust me. Just try them. They are wayyy too good for the price.
Watching with my 1$ earbuds
ZiaUalHassain how many have you been through?
I just order like 5 pairs for a couple of bucks, when they break i nust get a new pair. I only watch UA-cam with these so sound quality isn't really a importance
I can vouch for the Panasonic earbuds. I bought like four of them to have extra. They sound great and very comfortable.
I Finn yo me too. I have a few pairs mainly because I almost always end up with a pair in washer. But they're really good. I own some much higher end earbuds but my Panasonics are always with me.
I lose earbuds constantly so my solution was to buy a pair for every one of my coats and backpacks and leave them there when I'm done using either. So far so good. Only exception is my computer pair (which I use the most). Great buds for the price.
The into sounds so good, and the mic mix is perfect. People out there really need to step up their games! Keep it up man.
I use the MPOWW overear wireless headphones and love 'em. Less than $20 - great sound quality - can't beat it!
2:02 you're really ramping up the already amazing quality with these new camera shots Marques!!
I mean omg I've seen that done before with still shots.. but never with a moving shot, where you and the earbuds stay perfectly in focus!
Probably using that robot camera arm thingy
Simon Pyszkowski Yeah he mentioned you can repeat movements...imagine sitting that still for that long though
big boi44 it’s not that long though, it’s slowed down more than likely and he just has to put on each different pair and tell the arm to redo the shot again while he’s standing in the same spot.
The Panasonic earphones are way better than they have any right to be. I can say with much certainty that they are one of, if not the best earphones under $50 (I've tried a lot looking for a replacement, none beat it's clarity). Also although they don't look durable, they are. I fall asleep with them, my chair wheels roll over them, and I only have to replace them every 6 months to a year.
Agreed, I too have yet to find sub50$ buds that compare. The only buds that I own that are clearly superior are the OnePlus Bullets which are nearly as comfortable (although not quite), sound better and have a better mic unit (combines volume control AND play control) and are more durable. Since they are hard to get because of shipping cost, I have one pair of bullets and about 5 pairs of Panasonics. They are truly excellent and their QC is great. They rarely break.
if you value bass at all, the sony XB50AP ($30) are much better. i would say they're just better in general.
I like those sonys pretty well too but they sort of stick out a lot
I actually bought the Sony ones along with another highly rated pair (basically bought the top 3 earphones under $50) but I didn't like them, they felt muffled in comparison. I dislike the lack of bass with the Panasonic but I value clarity more than bass so I prefer them. My opinion though based on the things I listen to (not really bass heavy music), I can understand why others would prefer the Sony ones.
Have you tried VSonic VSD1S? Those are pretty good sounding earbuds under $50.

I grabbed a pair of MPOW bluetooth "exercise" earbuds a few years ago for around $20 & they sounded surprisingly good. They're durable and because they're connected to each other with a cord if one falls out while I'm cycling I can just put it back rather than trying find it first. Worst case I lose them, it's an easy replacement.
Also, they're so easy to pair that anything that claims it needs to be easier is like the infomercial where people can't use soap correctly & NEED a special motion-activated soap dispenser at home.
At 2:00 that was a sick transition with different earbuds in.
Hyrum Beck he made a video on the "arm" that was used. It's in his "dope tech" catagory. Super excited
I'd pick the wireless one, they the best on the table, but what about the best ones to buy for each budget, cause earbuds are just so annoying, no body talks about that
Baha'adeen Al-ees what
I own KZ ZST from gearbest that cost me $15, and they are incredible for the price.
Also had VSonic GR6 for around $40, seemed to be loved by everybody, absolutely hated them, KZ beats them in everything but accessories.
And here I am with my cheap earbuds...
I have the Panasonic ones for over a year now (I didn’t even buy them, I just got them from my father that didn’t use them anymore, so they are older) and I can absolutely verify that they are surprisingly the most durable headphones I have ever used. They are my “beater” headphones and have endured a great amount of use and abuse. Further more the sound volume and quality are great for the price. Definitely a good investment if you are looking for a cheap pair of headphones. Definitely way ahead from the competition in this price range.
didn’t Prime Time win the IG poll?
You mean like the series name for cowchops amazon show on youtube?
There is a news series named as Prime time
More of this, please.
I really like the $9 earbuds. I've bought 3 pairs consecutively over 2 years, so they last about 8 months before they break. $9 bucks every 8 months for earbuds that sound fine is a good deal to me. Honestly the worst part about them is the tangling.
Perhaps you should start saving money for better earphone
Hauzen some people just don’t have the money, statistically 70% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck
Very helpful. Very professional. To the point and enjoyable to watch. Thanks!
I have had the MPOW 059 for 2 years now. They are decent for non audiophiles, that want cheap decent sound with bluetooth. Dont forget these can plug in with a jack too if your battery dies.
That hiss tho, it sucks! I have gotten used to it. But when I want to hear music in good quality I got my Sennheiser's
Dude, you've underestimated Panasonic's. I do have Harman kardon on ear headphones, also powerbeats 3 and those Panasonic's.
Guess what? Panasonic's beat powerbeats soundwise and durability wise. They beat airpods by far. They are absurdly good for the price and you just can't break them. Even that strange calbe is durable as f*ck
Jackie Robinson they are not that durable if you work out, but I don't mind changing them every three months, still cheaper. audio is good
Jackie Robinson I attest to that!!!!
i’ve had my panasonic for 2 years. I bought a pair and then found my old pair and the old ones (which have gone through the washing machine many times) sound the same as the new pair! They are a great pair of earbuds
Sujith Nakkala i dont know how? mine worked for 2 years for me😂
blessyou i can’t attest to this. I tried working out with mine and found it to get in my way. that’s my problem with earbuds and working out.
I've had many cheap headphones and the over ear mpows blow away most other cheap headphones in sound quality.
Try Knowledge Zenith. It's the same-ish price range, sounds better. I'd recommend the ZST Pro for starters
Honestly, I'd live with the over ears, simply because they'd probably be the more comfy option. Plus I've had a couple instances where the buds on in-ears have come off when taking them out of my ears. And I can't stress enough how much of a panic that can be.
Hey, what about comparing these best sellers to a cheap alternative YOU picked out and tell us the difference say an extra 10$ for the "Anker Slim+" would make? So that being best seller isnt always what gives you the best bang for the buck.
Hsein Shabshoul I was expecting this. "These are the most popular, but for the same price these others are the best"
Ben Pyman You mean Mpow?
"They make sounds" wow really! thanks man!
Oooh! That Intro...
You know what MKB, start a Logo and Intro factory!
The Sony XB (Xtra Bass) ear buds (wired) are SUPERB and very cheap on Amazon (around $20USD/$30CAD on sale) and I would highly recommend them.
I'm gonna need that shirt of yours.
Damn his hands are big
Aatlas thats what she said
I have the Mpow Flames wireless earbuds, audio quality is good for what you pay, they do have options for the bud cover, 3 sizes of rubber plus memory foam covers for added base and noise canceling. I use them at work for listening to podcasts and low music, very worth the money!
Currently watching this with my mpow 059 headphones. I see why they are the top over ear headphone on amazon. I've had them for about 2 years and I use them a lot. It's not unusual for me to wear them for 8 to 10 hours in a single day just listening to the radio or a podcast quietly in the background while doing stuff like cleaning the fish tank, doing yard work, etc. They have only recently started to break from this ultra heavy usage. They seem fairly easy to fix too, so I am just gonna order some parts and fix them. 10/10! Great headphones!
Edit: I also like how they can use a 3.5 mm jack in addition to Bluetooth.
Audiophiles are not buying Beats either - your point being?
Wow head phones which are fit the pocket are convenient ....👍
BUT
Phones which don't have a HEADPHONE JACK for a 1000 bucks....Not convenient .......👎
this is so true
My gr07's have lasted me a year and half so far, they sound amazing. Great product, probably my favorite IEM's
I got 99 cent headphones 😀
I've personally been using the Panasonic earphones for over a year now and I love them. Like he mentioned they make sound and are convenient which I would not argue with. I have never had the fortune of listening to sound with super expensive earphones so I don't know what top of the range quality sounds like so for me these are perfect. Also they are actually quite durable, I bought 2 pairs (one for casual use and the other for sleeping) and they both lasted around a year before I needed to replace the ones I sleep with, but for only like 5 quid I really don't mind. They are very comfortable in my ears but some of my friends don't like them so it's up to preference. Other than that they are by far my favourite earphone I have used!
Matt Sherbert if you're sleeping with ear phones try something with in-ear headphones like Shure SE series design.. very comfortable for sleeping purposes
Ptrck Caresosa i don't know if i have looked at the right Shure headphones, but they like ten times as expensive as the Panasonic ones, that's hardly worth it
elago just the design not the actual product :) (I don't know how to describe the product design)
We need a playlist of all the tracks sampled in this video!
I hear your take on why people buy these cheap ones in such large quantities. For me, I ended up with the $10.00 Panasonic after far too many Apple Earbuds that stopped working. For $10.00, the Panasonic worked reliably, I could pull them without dismembering them, I could sit on them without tearing them apart. Good enough to do the job and solid enough to last
I believe that equates to VALUE. .
I'm very curious what Marques himself would select as his personal THE VERY BEST for each category.
LessThanHandy that's a much better video idea
Sennheiser, bose, Sennheiser
He's an AT fan
Olaf Miklas rightfully
I think he did that a while ago. it was a sennheiser I believe
