Overall, I think they offer a fantastic budget option!"

I love them so much that I bought two more pairs for my mom and girlfriend, who are both obsessed. The battery life is incredible, lasting almost two weeks with daily listening. They do feel a bit flimsy, but that hasn't been an issue for us. Just a heads up, they're not noise cancelling, but for the price point, they're a must-buy!"

"I purchased these KVIDIO headphones as a Black Friday gift to myself, and they've exceeded my expectations.
