It was for my son and he prefers the over the ear!!! Actually, both my sons do!

Both are rather comfortable so it really depends on the situation. When I'm on a long flight, over the ear is better and retains the sound to just me, as apprised to on ear which will allow everyone to hear what you are hearing. For doing something active, I prefer on ear because I can crank it as mound as I want to and they are lighter.

I have the headphones in teal and so far they are extremely comfortable because of the cushion. There is even cushion on top of the head band part. I've never had their other products but I love the ones I have.

I find them very comfortable, although if you have a larger head (am sure you don't! I've average head, but lots of hair) I should think they could pull a bit on the back of the head. Def the best type for comfort compared to in or on ear kinds. I forget I'm wearing them even for 3 or more hours.

my previous one was V Moda crossfade and i can say this is more comfortable and softer...good for long time of listening...also covers my ear pretty well

On ear headphones sit flat against your ear. Over ear headphones do just what they say. They fit over your ears.

For me it's comfortable and I have the Soundbot SB240, but it all depends on the thickness of your sunglass frame the part that goes over your ears because the ear piece frame of the headset also goes over your ears as well. Also if you have long hair you might find it more comfortable having the head band of the headset laying under your hair instead of on it. Hope this helps.

Yes, these are very comfortable to wear for extended periods of time. They fit very well in my ears that after awhile I don't feel them. I like these very much.

I bought both (over-the-ear for work and the earbuds for home). Depending on your use, the over-the-ear headphones are great for work when you need to lock in and focus. The earbuds work better for me at home, so that I can be aware of everything that is going on (I have kids, so I need to know what they are doing).

Over the ear - the cup is quite good - I have decent sized ears and they were adequately 'cupped' and stayed fairly comfortable for a full 7hr flight

They are relatively heavy, but countless insertion depth and tip combinations are available with the provided accessories. If weight is your primary concern, you can always wear them over the ear.

I wear the headset over my ear with glasses. It is comfortable, but it did take some getting used to. Definitely leave on the foam sleeve that comes on the over the ear piece. I haven't tried it without it, but other reviews complain about the hard plastic. I'm sure it would be more bothersome to wear the ear piece with glasses, without the foam sleeve.

These headphones are on-ear. Unlike over ear headphones, which sit around your ears, these headphones literally sit on top of your ears.

It fits over the ear. There are several ear pads to choose from. Also, of the three methods of wearing it (standard over the head headset, behind the neck, and hanging from the ear) provided, I prefer the behind the neck method.

There are no different attachments for over the ear. The wire should conform to your ear.

Comfortable to wear for extended periods. Often I wear this headphone for 2 hours continuously and their comfortability remains.

They're more "on the ear", than "over the ear" -- they don't have contact points on your skull or jaw, if that's what you're asking. They are super comfortable, and block noise pretty well, in my opinion.

It fits comfortably over the ear,no sweat for me but I tend to take them off to speak with people.

Over ear means that the headphone envelopes the entire ear, whereas on ear means the headphones rest atop the ear. Sennhesier px 200 ii would be on ear headphones.
