I am not an audiophile and didn't test 25 headphones as part of my selection process, sorry. I purchased these for my college age daughter, and she loves them. She thinks they are the right size, look cool, are really comfortable and sound great - I agree.

Headband Can Get Dirty Due To Colour

With the headphones market booming we've often seen increasing price tags for products that don't always mean better sound or build quality. Not so the Sennheiser Urbanite on-ear headphones: these affordable ￡150 cans don't scrimp on sound, style or build quality.

Great sound for big bass through to crisp top-end; loud output; adjustable and folding design; comfortable after weeks of wear; affordable price

Earcup covers can fall off too easily; unfolding can catch fingers too easily; would prefer a lighter and less "pinched" design

In recent times, headphones have become as much a fashion accessory as a way of listening to music, and people are now paying just as much attention to colours and materials as they are to drivers and frequency response.

Went into the shop, it was ￡79 rather than normally being ￡130, turned out ￡5 more expensive than the earphones I originally went in for(sennheisers again).

When we're reviewing headphones and speakers, we sometimes tend to forget that the focus should always remain on the music, and less on the technical aspects of the sound. It's more important to be immersed and involved in the music you love without worrying about how detailed or clear the sound is.

Great for walking to work and traveling. Feels a bit more mature than Beats by Dre, but more fashionable than traditional on ear headphones. Limited colors for Android a bit annoying. Case is somewhat useless.

One of the heaviest set of headphones I've got my hands on. The base response is just too good. Passive noise cancellation also pretty effective. Bar the weight, a really good buy.
