Frequently Asked Questions

No, the limited frequency response and basic sound won't appeal to older kids or teens who are more discerning listeners.
It depends on your phone’s output power; many smartphones might struggle to provide sufficient volume due to the high impedance, resulting in quiet playback.
On-ear designs like these tend to put more pressure on the ears than over-ear, so extended listening might become less comfortable for some children.
