I started to get into music a lot more a few years ago and wanted a set of headphones that would give me great quality when listening to music. THESE CERTAINLY DID THAT.

When i first used the beats the quality of the sound was amazing. The headphones had a equal amount of treble and bass which meant that each song was amazing to listen to.

On the otherhand though after 6 months the headphones poor design began to show. The screws holding the frame of the headphones began to loosen and for £279 you would not expect this. Then things got worse with the headphones...... The springs which the batteries sit on begin to overheat and burn. This means that the headphones cut off now and again because the batteries do not connect properly to power the headphones.

Another problem about the headphones is that they are not very good at keeping the music for yourself as they leak a lot of sound. I compared the loudness of the music which constantly leaks and the volume coming from the headphones is louder than my iphone playing music from its own speakers.

Overall these headphones are good for the first couple of months. After that you experience with the headphones begin to go downhill with all the minor problems you will begin to see. A lot of my friends had the similar problems i have listed above. If you are looking at buying a decent pair of headphones for around £200-300 then i would look at either sennheiser or bose headphones in the similar price range.

    Who would have thought that Dr Dre couldn't make decent headphones.
