How comfortable to wear? Not too tight or heavy? Sound quality?
505201
Actually quite light and the sound quality is surprisingly good. For $13.40 you can't go wrong.

I find it comfortable, not too tight nor heavy. The sound quality is fine but suppose it would depend on what you're comparing it to. I use it often in long conversations with family and friends; saves strain on the neck and since our phone has a belt clip on it, I can multi-task while talking.

I find it uncomfortable to wear. It squeezes pretty tight and I have a small head. I wouldn't purchase this if I had it to do over.

Sound quality is fine. Comfortable to wear. I have had it on for hour plus conference calls without an issue. However it is not a BOSE or similar headset.

Please understand, this is not a high-tech, expensive unit. I thought the price was right for what I wanted, and I was very satisfied with the comfort and sound. I used the unit during teleworking, so wore it for an hour plus at a time, and found no discomfort, and found the sound quality adequate.

My son had no issues using them while playing Minecraft and talking with his friends. Hope this helps? g-

Best headset for the money I have ever purchased. The microphone is adjustable and the ear piece is so comfortable. I would highly recommend this product.

This is not an easy question to answer. They will probably fit fine since they are held in place by the ear loops (for lack of a better term). Snug, not as predictable. Mine feel like they have extra play so do tend to move a bit. I wouldn't want them to be too snug because they'd be uncomfortable. Will they stay in place? Yes. For the price, they're worth checking out. I found them to be a 100% improvement over ear buds which would not stay in while running. Better sound quality than ear cup headphones. Bottom line... I tried 3 options & even though they are a bit loose, they are by far the best headphones for use during physical activity. This is not an easy question to answer.

I don't think any headphones are comfortable to wear for a long time. But I've worn the BOSE noiseless, and I would say these are pretty up there. I take trans-Pacific flights (10-13 hours), so that means I've worn these for about 15 hour stretches. I wouldn't say I didn't feel they were there, but think of the alternatives (tremendous engine/air conditioning noise). So these are definitely a must-have! Also, I don't believe in buying any headsets over $120 or $150 unless you're a snobby "audiophile." So these are your best bet!

Not very. Comfortable with glasses. Seem to be a good balance between comfort and tight if you don't want tight cans. Too loose for me though. I like the bass and brightness of tight headphones. I gave these to my son (who wears glasses) because I actually wanted tighter cans. I found I had to have my hands pushing them tighter to get better sound. It all depends on how picky your ear is. He loves them and wears them everywhere, all day.

The noise isolation is good actually, it's on par with an over the ear headphone. Compared to over the ear headphones these aren't as comfy but it it could vary from ear shapes. The head band is extremely comfy the only place iv'e felt some pressure would be from the cups but i do wear them for hours and i usually keep the fit snug.

Define "comfortable". I have a fairly large skull, so a big pair of headphones can really cramp the cranium - if they are too tight! And yeah, reading those user reviews had me worried too.But after using them for months, i think these are *comfortable enough*. At least for most general-purpose use. After a few hours, you may want a break - which is actually a great excuse to take that much-needed break from work/play/whatever anyway!Can't say for sure what makes them less than a five-star fit. The plastic crescent bridge that holds the two cans on top of your head has a soft pad at the top, but i find that area to still be uncomfortable even though the pad feels like it ought to do the job... That's about it though... Define "comfortable". I have a fairly large skull, so a big pair of headphones can really cramp the cranium - if they are too tight!

I've got a big head and their very light and comfortable!! If you like a lot of bass they may not be for you! I love the sound but I don't like a lot of bass!

As far as comfort goes, it is adequate for prolonged use. I have kept them on for like 2-3 hours at a stretch; when I removed them from my ears, they don't give a "pain" that some headphones give. And yes the triangular shape will surely fit a woman's ears.

I have a very large head (I just measured it as about 24.5 inches in circumference, or "XX-Large" according to a hat site), and I wear glasses. I find other cheap headsets extremely uncomfortable, to the point where I'd actually log off of voice communications with my friends because my ears hurt.But I find these headphones very comfortable and frequently wear them for hours without even noticing. I would recommend anyone with a big head give them a try; be aware that you might need to wear them for a while before they loosen up a bit. Also position them so that your ears are entirely inside the cups. The cups measure a little more than 2 inches by 2 inches, square, on the inside.

They are very comfortable. They have soft/slightly thick padding around each ear and the headphones are very light and thin.

Being a grown male with (I would say) an average sized & shaped head have shook my head back `n forth quickly (as in a "no" fashion) and have noticed the Sennheiser PC 310 headset slip slightly over the ears (but come back to center). You certainly wouldn't do any headbanging sessions with them on (not that I Headbang). I feel they have just the correct tension for my head size/shape. You actually don't want them too tight, because after a time, you will get ear cartilage fatigue and get to the point you will not want to wear them due to discomfort. So these Sennheiser PC 310 have just the right balance of grip versus comfort for me.

Yes, I wear this headset with two different pairs. One has a very thin light metal frame, and the other has rather thick rubbery ear grips. Obviously the thinner the frame the more comfortable you'll be, but you shouldn't have any issues with even a wider pair in your first hour of constant use. You can always lift the ear grips above the headphone cups so they don't pinch your head too hard. Looks a bit dorky, but feels nice.

The headphones are quite comfortable when resting on your neck. I could hear people speaking even while they we covered my ears with the volume on low.

For the price they're most comfortable headphones I Think. Mostly I like sound loudness and quality. Also they are not too big or too small.

The sound quality is good, not the best (comparing with my bose headphones), however, they are comfortable to exercise.

Arun, I have what I consider a smallish-sized head. I often "close" headphones, put them on, and only have to extend them a very small amount, if at all. The DT880 have never given me a problem with being loose. They are among the most comfortable headphones that I have used, if not the most comfortable (and I've used a fair number of headphones). If you like to jump around and throw your head back and forth while listening to music, I'm not sure if these headphones (or any) would stay on. However, you're just sitting/standing, working at a desk, watching tv, playing a game, or similar, then I would not anticipate a problem. Arun, I have what I consider a smallish-sized head.

I have a large head and they are very tight on me. But they should be good for someone with a small head. Also they aren't as durable as you might expect. However, they do sound very nice and balanced. If you want some smaller headphones, I'd check out the Sennheiser 219, 229, and the 239. They are smaller yet still sound fantastic. I'd also recommend the Panasonic rp-htx7. The are nice, light, low profile, and have a fun sound signature.
