One of my biggest let downs this year....I purchased these headphones based on its growing popularity within Apple's Online Store. I decided to get it on Amazon because it offered the "White" model which I wanted. Upon receiving the package, I was excited about adding another headphone to my collection. At this price point, I was hoping for a pair that I can wear casually, meanwhile keeping my Audio Technica ATH-M50 and Dr. Dre Beats at home for other purposes.On the first try, I wanted to log on Amazon right away and give it 2-3 stars, but I decided to wear it for a couple weeks as well as run some unbiased experiments to give it a better feedback. Turns out, there was nothing that can justify this as a better pair of headphones than its competitors.I compared this to a $130 pair of ATH-M50s, $20 pair of Apple Earphones, and another pair of headphones. Final conclusion? In terms of performance, it gives a clear, colorful sound which allows you to hear both the high/low levels. However, I did expect more. When you compare these to Apple's stock OEM earphones, the quality is just about the same. Urbanears products however gives with these earpads that really do keep sound out. This helps. For a pair of $50-60 headphones, I think this is average but not good enough for me to not want to reach $30-40 more to get a pair of Sony's or cheaper Audio Technica's.Let's chat about comfort which destroyed the excitement for me. It's just too damn tight. I think I have an average size head (maybe slightly bigger?). Either way I've had several folks, all smaller than me, try on the headphones. Even when you have the headphones around your neck, it feels like the headphone is trying to actively strangle you to death. This easily slapped a star and a half off this product for me (the other half a star comes from the disappointment in terms of performance, okay but not good enough).The product was beautifully packaged and I really like the way Urbanears is going. If the headphones fit better, I would've given it 4 stars but I can't see myself wearing these much in the future. I'm slightly disappointed but think these will fit many people in terms of performance and expectation for its price range. I've worn them the past 5 minutes while writing this review and already my ears are beginning to hurt. I do hope I can come back a couple months from now and add a star but for now, the discomfort and mediocre performance will keep it at a 3.

These are simply amazing headphones. they are extremely durable, even when folded up. I've shoved them in my backpack dozens of times, and they're completely fine. The remote works better than those of the Apple earbuds, and is much more comfortable and easier to press. Noise cancellation is great and the ear cushions are very comfortable. Sound quality is absolutely spectacular. You can turn them up realllllly loud and still have it not hurt because they're over-the-ear. This results in great sound balance because you don't get cymbal and treble crashes directly in your ear canal. As far as bass goes, these are the best headphones in their class and price range. When turned up to max volume they can even be used as around-the-neck speakers :p If you're looking for over-the-ear, great sound quality, durability, and surprising affordability, then look no further than Urbanears Plattan. Everything else is either crappy, or severely overpriced.

I'm not an audiophile. I can't tell you anything about the quality of the sound, other than to say I've never noticed a problem.I like the all-white look of these headphones. I've had them 2 months and they still look nice, although the foam in the ear cups has begun to yellow.It was really important to have in-line volume control, because my coworkers will start talking to me before I have a chance to open up iTunes and click on the pause button. "WAIT WHAT, I DIDN'T HEAR THAT!" With this, I can flick the audio off in half a second.I have had to return headphones before for squeezing my head too tightly. These however are fine once you stretch them out a bit.However, for me there's a limit to how long I can wear any headphones / earbuds, and this is no different. After about 2 hours my head needs to take a break.Are these high end headphones? No. But they are attractive and functional.
