Is it okay for office regular Teams/Skype calls? Microphone quality?
I use these strictly for my sprint/WFH headphones and the microphone works well. Haven't had any complaints from my team at work.

does these have mics to use with calls?
Yes and the mic is quality. I have a pair and someone on my team at work does as well. No complaints as a listener or speaker

I like them but it is a quirky design that the microphone is on the cord so you need the cord to talk on the phone.
No, actually you don't need the cord to talk when using bluetooth. Only when you are plugged in when out of battery, you will talk to the microphone on the cord.

I got two pairs for my kids. They love them. I dont want to listen to them play on the phone. So it works out great for everyone. I couldn't find a better price per battery life. The weigh isnt heavy not sure how people are complaining about it. Maybe weak necks from being slonked over their phones. The look and feel durable/premium and you even get a nice little bag for them and the accessories that come with them.
I like how you hate being around your kids so much you hand them a phone and headphones so you don't have to hear them and in the same paragraph you're saying people complaining about the weight probably have weak necks from being on their phones.... Just like you're having your kids do.

Been this price for many sites now for about 6 months
6 Months? I bought these in 2021 for the same price to give to my nephews and nieces as gifts. They're good enough quality and not so expensive that when the kids eventually break them, you feel bad.

Quote from paulhenta View quoted comment :
not a very good pair of headset to be honest, the MSRP is obviously inflated and they play on the brand who never was the same after the samsung acquisition. heck, samsung branded earbuds are better than this. But if you need one and you feel the price or look is good, go for it.

You have some many good IEMs that trounces this headset in every single category in term of sound quality at a similar price.

Question is- why do people think it's not worth $29?
Any expert views!
Older codec, been sitting for years at this point, degrading battery life.

Might be the most judgemental comment I've read outside of pricey headphone posts. Well done!

For instance the QKZx HBB, I use the mic version to play modern warfare 2 among other things. it destroys this AKG in every way except being wireless of course.
and that is just one example.

I love being with my kids. So you're kinda a dick, why? Who goes after someones kids? What type of sick fark are you?

I give them headphones so they can listen to their phones on car trips. They use them sparingly.

I have personally used the headphones. They aren't heavy.

But the headphones would probably crush this old lady's neck.

Or this dude would probably return them for being too heavy..

You probably have a hunched back and your neck sticks out like a turtle. Way to be a PRO.

Bought this last year. Good audio, but too much clamping force for an adult-size head, in my experience, even after trying to resize them using a volleyball or basketball overnight. My 17-year-old didn't like them, but they should be good for a 13-year-old or younger.
