What customers are saying

The headphones offer good sound quality, with clear audio and deep bass. They are described as comfortable, lightweight, and foldable. However, some users report issues with durability, such as one channel stopping working, microphone failure, or the headphones cracking and breaking. There are also complaints about the thin padding causing discomfort with extended use. Overall, the product provides a positive listening experience, but the build quality and longevity appear inconsistent.

    Great Sound Quality SUPERB

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - June 4, 2020

    I love the sound quality on this I thought it would be like almost any £20 headphones but this stood out amongst the others as it is a comfortable yet sleek design personally as I bought the RED version of these headphones and I would say they look amazing. I would recommend this for watching movies or playing music as it can handle bass pretty well. Would recommend to anyone with a low budget powerful performance headphones

    Highly durable

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - September 11, 2019

    I have utilised my MDR-ZX310 Headphones for 2 years now and the state of their condition remains exactly the same as when I originally purchased them. Yes, there are a few marks and scratches but it's expected. I have full confidence in knowing these headphones would be safe if they were thrown about. The sound quality is great and doesn't dissapoint me. The retractable feature on the phones makes it easy to store. These may feel flimsy but their build is sturdy. Highly recommended for those looking for a cheap alternative. Good for children and teenagers.

    It's handy

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - January 31, 2015

    I like it for the color code. I was in search of of red style headphones and I found it with this. The earcups are soft and don't bother. It's quite comfortable having had the headband adjusted. On the down side, The quality isn't great for me, it's okay for hearing talk but not for music because it won't go load enough. It has just loud enough volume to be able to hear. I like it for its comfortable earcups and the mic is a nice bonus. I forget about the button along the mic but when I needed to pause something on the Xperia android phone, i used it. I would use the headphones and not need to listen anything through it, 'cause they block air wind plus they get warm. A good set of headgear.

    Decent headphone for the price

    Reviewed by - January 2, 2019

    I got these about 3 months ago to replace my MDRZX110s. They are very decent for the price. The bass is good, and the highs are decent. The mids do sound a little muddled, but its not too noticeable especially if you are not an audiophile. I even compared these to the Beats Solo3 and these sound almost as good with a little better bass than the beats. I don't consider myself a hardcore audiophile, but i do expect quite a bit more from my audio equipment than the average person (probably a beginner audiophile). These would be great as backup headphones or travel headphones.

    Reviewed by - June 4, 2015

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wanted OVER THE EAR headphones. The are NOT OVER THE EAR, they are ON EAR. Just fyi. I will keep them and try them out, but I'm not sure I will like something sitting on my ears for long hours at work.

    Poor Quality

    Reviewed by - May 1, 2020

    We have had these for less than 9 months and the jack completely broke off in the computer when we took the headphones out - we didn't yank, pull aggressively or pull at an angle - very disappointing.

    Great Headphones

    Reviewed by - October 2, 2014

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Three months ago I purchased the SONY MDRZX310. I am totally happy with it. The sound quality is excellent. The deep bass, mid & high tones are very clear. On occasion while listening / viewing music videos or BLU RAY DVDs on my laptop, the sound is awesome. Even at high volumes the quality is great. There is no distortion or crackling noises. It also keeps out noises from your surrounding area. The padded ear pieces are very comfortable & it is compact when folded. I highly recommend these headphones. The price is very reasonable for great quality.

    Studio Sound on the Go!

    Verified BuyerReviewed by - March 20, 2020

    I have owned several pairs of Sony earbuds and headphones over the years. These are another great example of Sony quality and excellent value. I have owned a pair of MDR-V150 for years and and the sound from these is nearly as good. One key improvement is the comfort, as I could wear these all day. Also, the cable is just the right length, and the plug fits into my Android phone even while inside my protective case. No more ear buds while I'm walking around the house doing chores, etc. I can even take a call if interrupted. Great job Sony!
