So I finally got me a pair of this bad boys! I know what people often ask, "Are they really worth paying that much for them?" Let me answer that with another question. Can Geico really save you 15% or more on car insurance? Hell Yeah!!! This headphones are just incredible. But there are a few things I don't really like about them but I will write about it more. Lets see, I guess I should start with the good things.
This headphones as you already know are design to cancel any external noise to provide with the best sound quality. And that is exactly what this headphones do, Dr Dre was not playing when he and the team over at Monster were designing this. The sound quality is just beyond amazing. As soon as you put this headphones on everything else just goes away, its just you and the music. Its really hard to explain, its something that you have to experience to fully understand. The built quality is also really good, the best quality of any headphones that I've ever had. They are a little bit heavy but not to heavy. They feel very durable, like you could probably drop this from a two story building and they will only get a few scratches... but I wont be doing that any time soon, specially after I just payed so much for them. The decide is not too bad either, I mean as soon as I put this babies on and started walking around campus people knew right away that they were "Beats". Its really hard not to notice this and not just because they are "Beats" but I will talk about that later. Another thing I like about this headphones is that it comes with its really cool case and the cable comes out so if the headphone jack breaks, I don't have to pay for a whole new pair of headphones, I can just go to bestbuy or radio shack or wherever and just buy another cable. I think that is really cool because that is the one thing that usually breaks after a while.
Now to talk about the bad things. There are not a lot of them but there are a few and they are pretty annoying. For starters, I got this out of the box and got my ipod and started playing music but no sound was coming out! I started freaking out, but then I read the little booklet that comes with the headphones and it turns out that without batteries, this headphones wont work!!! Thats right, if you run out of battery in the middle of the night and every store is closed you are pretty much out of luck. I don't know why they did this but its pretty stupid if you ask me. But its something that I can live with I guess. The second thing that I just don't like is that they leak sound. Specially if your in a quiet room for example the library. People will hear what you are hearing! So you have to turn the volume just a little bit lower then you want to. Again I was freaking out when I first noticed, I thought it was just my pair that were doing that but it turns out that they all do that. So like I said people will notice this "Beats".
Other then those two little details the headphones are really good. I like them so far. I don't really mind about the battery as much but the fact that they leak sound is kinda disappointing. But over all this headphones are great for listing to music, like truly listen to music. The sound quality is just incredible and they look pretty cool around your neck. I will say that if you have the money to buy them you should.
