Urban Beatz Tempo Headphones with In-line Mic - White/Red (M-HM705)

My wife bought me the Urban Beatz Tempo Headphone for Christmas. I thought she had spent a couple hundred dollars for some overpriced headphones, but I was wrong.I liked the headphones so much I bought her a set as well.I have been using some lightweight bluetooth headphones that do not cover the ear, and while they worked ok, I definitely prefer headphones that cover the ears.The base sounds great if you are a music listener.I really like the comfort of the headphones. They fit snugly over the ears, but are not too tight, and with their light weight, I can wear them for several hours with no problems. (I have some older, heavy Sony headphones which cost a LOT more and weigh about twice as much which I can only wear for a couple of hours at a time).The microphone is great if you like to make Skype calls or use the headphones to answer your smartphone. The microphone quality is okay due to it's location in the volume control piece which is on the headphone cord, about 8 inches below the chin. You can hold the control closer to you mouth for a better listening experience for the person on the other end of the line.(I bought a female to male connector that allows the headphones to be used with our cordless phones which have a very small input connection, so my wife can use the headphones to call through our phone system).There is also a volume control and pause button located in the control piece. The pause button is great if you listen to music or podcasts. The volume control is a sliding control. The slide control only travels a short distance, so it takes a little trial and error to get it just right.The headphone cord is flat and is not prone to getting tangled.Lastly, the price is a great value . . . considering the Urban Beatz Tempo Headphone price is under $50, the sound, features, style and comfort make this a great overall value.

These are good. They can take a beating and the sound quality is better than you should get for the price. They're light weight, look good, and best of all can take a few drops. Perfect for the gym or for everyday use.

I think these are great for younger kids. They are comfortable and don't bother ears for long time wearing. The sound is decent enough for them not to notice. They look great and also look like they'll hold up good. And, the price is great. But, if you're over 9....you're going to notice a difference. They sound a little muffled to me. You can also hear what's going on around you (no noise cancellation). There are no bass adjustments, but the inline volume control is nice. You get what you pay for. Take it from there.

Lucky as I was to once have a pair of Beats By Dre...I'm also lucky to have a seven year old to accidentally destroy them. I bought these UB to replace the expensive brand that no longer exist, and I have no been disappointed.The sound is great.The fit is great.The colors are great- and these are cheap enough that you can have a few pairs to match your clothes (or for me, match my musical instruments)You can throw them in your bag and now have a heart attack if something happens to them.Can't beat the price for sound. I would highly recommend and I will buy again for sure. The white and silver look clean...I'm really lovin those right now.

Luckily since I bought this through amazon I will get a refund soon, but I didn't expect it would come to this. When I got this headphone I was expecting amazing things from the reviews. What I got was a very flimsy looking headphones, with one ear almost non functional. I had to jack the balance for the right side up to almost thrice the left side to get even a bit of the balanced hearing. Even the microphone is bad, and can't record my voice until In hold it with hand super close to my mouth. And all of this from the very first use. Very disappointing.

Sound quality good. This is not a noise canceling headset. Any background noise will get through. The ear pad stitching was coming out after two days, therefore I sent it back and did not replace.

Design and construction is good, sound quality is what you pay for.

I thought this item was an amazing value at the perfect price. The 4-foot cord allows for a great range of listening while my mp3 player is stored in any pocket! I've been using these headphones almost non-stop since receiving them yesterday afternoon. The sound quality is great and the buffer produced by the padding over my ears does a great job of reducing ambient noise around me. Again, for the price of these headphones, you can't get any better! I will definitely look to Merkury Innovations for future purchases.
