Frame cracks (in multiple locations) - PASS ON THESE
on October 16, 2023
Posted by: RichardT
My daughter loves them, but they're her first wireless over the ear headphones. She's highly annoyed that they began cracking after only 1 month of usage. She's not rough on them. She's a princess and very guarded over her possessions. Monoprice replaced the cracking pair for us with new ones. We immediately applied Sugru (moldable shapeable clay-like glue) to the new pair - hoping to prevent the cracking as we'd seen other people on here complaining about it. Guess what? It prevented cracking for about 3 months. Now they're cracking regardless. This is the crappiest plastic housing I've seen on a product ever.
I bought a pair of noise cancelling BOSE headphones from my local costco for $99. (or were they $79?) Anyway, they're smaller in profile and they sound WAAAAAY better. Also, bonus, the plastic doesn't crack.
Send these garbage things back to Shenzen where you made them and start over on the drawing board. Durability needs to be a top element.
When her current pair cracks beyond usage, we'll replace these with a 2nd set of Bose.

If you don't pick these your paying too much

These are the best! I bought these to use on a recent trip half way around the world and back and can't rave enough about how well they worked. Everywhere in a planes cabin you're going to feel and hear the engines drone. These can't cancel the vibration but these do cancel the drone w/ the ANC on and i used it for an entire 16 hour flight. They connect to all my devices by Bluetooth or can attach with a cable necessary. If your comparing them to the big name B0se save the $$$ and buy these!

decent headphones, earmuff covers falling apart after 2 years of infrequent use
on November 21, 2023
Posted by: DrewP
I only use these infrequently at the office when I need to get some focus time in. After 2 years the material that covers the foam on the earmuffs is splitting at the seam.

Monoprice 600 head set
on December 11, 2023
Posted by: Anonymous
Haven't had them for a veery long time but so far seem to be good quality and are doing what they were advertised to do. Price was good, compared to some other big names. Time will tell as my older Monoprice headset isn't holding up to use as well as I had hoped. But still working, just showing some wear on the ear pads.

Good Sound; Delicate Plastic
on December 18, 2023
Posted by: DouglasS
I like the way these headphones sound - smooth detail, slightly warm and good stereo imaging. They are also very comfortable to wear for long periods of time. My only complaint is that the plastic covering on the yokes started to crack after about 1 year of use - and they were not subjected to rough handling. I patched the cracks with super glue and continue to use these headphones at the office - they do a decent job of cancelling office noise.

1 Year Shelf Life
on January 23, 2024
Posted by: nickp
After 16 months of use (and just outside of warranty) these have failed me. They still hold the battery and charge just fine but the left ear when in noise cancelling mode, or pass through, will begin to make horrifically loud static screeching sounds. Totally unbearable and hurts my ear. The headphones will work correctly with noise canceling is disabled, but I purchased these for noise canceling, and wasn't looking for just a Bluetooth headset. I love most of my monoprice products but with failure happening just after a year and nothing they would do about it, I wish I opted for a name brand pair.

Very good headphones for the price
on March 7, 2025
Posted by: VictorK
Like many who are looking to purchase these I picked them up because the price compared to the Bose/Sony versions. I'm writing this after using them for 2 years.
- Durability
I bought these for travel and to use at work, I don't travel that much, 2-3 times a year, and always carry them in the included case. Cracks began to appear along the sections holding the speakers after about 18 months, at first I thought these were cosmetic (expecting a metal piece to be what held the speakers) I later realized that there is no metal parts. I fixed both sides with JB Weld which appears to work well. The cushions are beginning to flake, and I reached out to Monoprice and they are not replacable so I will have to figure something out.
-Noise cancelling
They do a reasonably good job with ANC enabled but it appears that the microphone array is configured such that how your head is situated compared to the sound source is important, I find myself having to cock my head somewhat (maybe pointing my nose 10-30 degrees off from direct at the screen) in order to get good noise cancelling performance.
-Audio quality
Here I can only compare them to ear buds and really cheep headphones, that said, I'm very happy with the performance.
- Connectivity
I'm not sure how to articulate this as I'm not sure how much of this is the devices I'm connecting to and how much it is the headphones so I'll just compare to my Raycon Impact earbuds. Where my earbuds typically have no issue connecting to both my computer and my Android phone for calls and music these only seem to be able to connect to one for calls and music and the other for just music (or simetimes just mic) This means if I have Teams/Zoom calls secheduled on my computer I have to effectivly dissconnect from my phone.. This might be a problem between the chair and the keyboard (better known as operator error) but it is quite annoying.
-Comfort
I'm an eyeglass wearer and it really depends which of my glasses I'm wearing. My general purpose eyeglasses have somewhat heaver stems where my computer glasses are somewhat thinner, thinner is better, when wearing my general purpose eyeglasses I have to tilt them somewhat to reduce discomfort.
-Upgradability
They do not appear to be upgradable at all, no firmware updates, etc

Overall opinion. I like them but be careful with them, if you start seeing cracks grab yourself some JB Weld and slather it on (and if you are better than me then file/sand it down so it looks good) to reinforce the cracked areas before the cracks become problems.
