Awesome

These headphones are incredible! For the price they absolutely can't be beat! I would take them over Beats any day! I use them at the library, work and anywhere else I want to be secluded by my music. They are super comfortable. I can wear them for hours at a time.

Wonderful Headphones

For the price, these headphones are quite a deal. If you are looking at them I would strongly recommend buying them, but also look at some headphones like the Beyer Dynamic Custom One Pros or DT770's that are in the same price range.
Pros:
  • Where do I start? -Build Quality is excellent
  • The headband is very flexible, all the pivot points and rotation points are very solid and work great
  • This is made mostly of plastic, but it does not feel like plastic
  • -Features are plentiful.
Cons:
  • The one minor detail I would mention is the amount of padding on the headband is a little less then there could be
  • It can be uncomfortable for a month or so until you break them in and get use to wearing them.

If you're looking for a pair of over-ear headphones to wear at home, but don't want to break the bank, and aren't interested in bass-boosted unnatural listening, then the Audio-Technica M50x are a definite contender.
Pros:
  • Accessible price
  • no compromise neutral audio experience
  • immediately comfortable to wear
  • solid build and ample padding
Cons:
  • Largely plastic construction
  • no controller on included cables
  • not ideal for on-the-go wear
  • ears get warm after extended use
