Zeb-Duke Bluetooth Wireless Over Ear Headphone with Mic (Black)

They're comfortable, long-lasting headphones that have great sound. Have bought one for hubby, and need to buy one for our son drive he keeps stealing mine lol

Headphone is good but only 16 hrs battery life on 80 %volume

I bought it just at 799 and using it from 2.5 years and only two flaws I faced. One was that it's leather like cover layer gets off after like 2 years and second that it's mic in BT mode is not good but works nicely in AUX mode. Sound quality is literally amazing. You can hear deep bass in BT mode and extreme speaker like loudness in AUX mode. If you moderately use it then it's battery can last upto a whole week. Also one thing! The aux cable that comes in the box is not very reliable. You may have to purchase another one, so keep it in mind that you need to buy an aux cable whose pin's covering is this! otherwise it won't fit in there. You can consider braided aux cable from portronics

Like you, i was scrolling through the comments to see if i should buy this or not. The reviews are very polarising (either good or bad) and to my surprise neither were truly wrong. So i was skeptical but i found it on sale for 999 so i just bought it.. I will do a pros and cons first and a super detailed review after it (the review will be given keeping the price range of 1500-2000 in mind) Pros: - Build Quality - Sound Quality (after EQ) [Amazing Bass, crystal clear and lively vocals with ear-fatigue free & nice treble tones] - Battery Life - Dual Connectivity and stable connection - No noticeable latency in videos - Comfort - Sick RGB Cons: - Mic Quality -Sound Quality (without EQ) [Amazing Bass, Bad vocals, Bad treble tones] -Low battery indications every 60 secs after 20% (didn't say 1 min as people might take it as an exaggeration) - You cant change or keep 1 colour on rgb, it changes on its own - Few Service Centres - Sometimes the headphones goes into a weird state where you have to keep the power button pressed for 10-30 seconds for it to work again Minor cons (which are completely fine for the price but are worth mentioning) -the rgb also turns on each time you power on the headphone so turning it off for more battery gets a bit annoying -The earcups dont fold (if you want to keep them on your neck then you will have to extend them , after that they wont restrict your head movement) -Each time you start/turn off the headphones or it connects/disconnects there is a voice announcement which i found to be quite annoying DETAILED REVIEW 1) Build Quality: The headband is made of made up of metal and looks very sturdy. The plastic used on the earcups is also of a good quality and i don't think it will break easily. The wire that is visible is thick and i aint worried about it. The earcups dont fold (which i knew) but it could have been a good addition. The cushioning on the headband is minimal but soft so you wont have a problem there. The ear cushions are very soft. Dimensions of entire ear cushion 10cm x 8cm . Dimensions of the opening for our ears 5.6cm x 4cm.The buttons wobble a little bit in their place but are clicky & tactile. The box it comes in, is very Sturdy and can be used to keep the headphone. 2) Looks: The headphone has a sick matte black colour which i love, the side profile looks amazing, it does look a bit bulky and weird when you look at it from the front though. 3) Comfort: I thought the hole should be as big as my ear to be comfortable which was not the case, my ear is like 6 cm and it still fits inside (with unnoticeable bending as the hole does get a bit bigger inside due to the pressure of our earlobes against it). The headphone does not feel heavy at all. The clamping force is just enough to keep the headphone from slipping, it isn't much which increases the comfort. The earcup wobbles a bit for a comfortable angle on your head. The clicks to increase or decrease the size are tight so the size wont change when you shake your head. I didn't have any discomfort wearing it for 4-5 hours straight. Although, the ears do sweat after 2-3 hours in normal temperature so you have to take a break of 2 mins (it doesnt feel warm but the sweat can speed up the wear and tear of the ear cushions. the way i do it is to just let out the air inside the headphones every once in like 30 mins for 15 secs which is much more efficient) Note: If its your first time wearing an over ear headphone then it might take a couple of days to get used to the weight and clamping force. Also, like all over ear headphones, they will be tight out of the box but they will loosen up after several hours of use (you can just put it on a pillow in between the earcushions instead if your head overnight) 4) Battery Life: I think it goes upto 20-22 hours on higher volumes (can be used only till 20% is left, after that unusable due to voice alerts) 5) Charging Time: Takes about 1hr 45 mins to go from 20% to 100% 6) Connectivity: I tried going into another room and it worked just fine so don't worry about the range. This headphone has dual connectivity which isn't mentioned anywhere, you can connect with 2 devices and if you play something with 1 device, the other pauses and vice versa 7) Latency: There is no noticeable latency in most videos or movies (there is a very slight delay which you can notice if you try noticing it hard but you wont do that while watching anything so its safe to say there is no noticeable latency, the latency can also be noticed if the person talks really fast) 8) Gaming: When you do gaming via bluetooth you will notice the latency like pretty much every wireless product without a gaming mode of 80ms latency. You can make out where the sound is coming from pretty easily. You can use the aux to get 0 latency. 9) Mic: The mic is straight up bad, lacks both clarity and loudness (Do note that the mic won't work with the aux cable) 10) Sound Isolation: You can't really hear anything of outside if something is playing in your headphones. If the volume is loud the people around you can hear it which is a con, other headphones do a better job here 11) Sound Quality (without EQ): The bass is very powerful, perfect for bass lovers but the mids and highs aren't even good 12) Sound Quality (with basic EQ):The Sound is loud enough at 100% for pretty much anyone who does not have significant hearing loss. The bass can be made less powerful or even more powerful if you want to blast your skull with the bass. The mids are produced very nicely. The highs are on point (neither sharp nor dull, its sparky enough without causing ear fatigue). The clarity is also very nice, the sounds seems crystal clear and crispy The distortion is very less. (Note: My Basic EQ is just take the little dots in the right half and increase all of them to some extent, keep the leftmost dot where it was and try to make a straight line between the leftmost and middle dots with the other dots left in the left half). One thing to note is that, you will find that the headphone skipped a word, its random and not that often but its worth mentioning 13) Sound quality via aux: The same things apply here but the max volume is 90% of what it was via bluetooth and the clarity gets a boost if you play FLAC format music 1 Year Edit for Durability: Everything still stands true, the earcup vinyl (i think that is the material) started coming off suddenly after 10 months i think and now its gone but it doesnt make a difference to sound or comfort. It randomly stopped working, i think the power button disconnected so i sent them via courier to the service centre (in warranty) and they sent it back in a week i think. I dropped them twice from 3 feet and it stayed fine, but someone sat on my headphones and one side got de-attached from the headband held on just by wire, it then dropped twice after that and that one side stopped working. I tried contacting service centres about how much the repair will cost so that i dont end up spending 400 or something to get this headphone repaired when i bought it for 999 but they didnt respond so i can spend either 100 to get this to the service centre by courier (most companies have a pick up service like soundcore) or go 20km away to get it repaired myself (which is hard during covid). Do Check if there are service centres around you before you get a zeb product.

Well the good parts : 1) comfort of the cusions is good , they are realy very big too . 2) heavy bass : the bass is very high , also has deep bass for the songs which have it , like deep bass and not hollow bass . 3) Design is good look wise is also decent . 4) overall build quality is good , the mattery used is good but the headphones I got , the outer plastic cover on one side of headphones was very loose and can get out slightly / easily , not a big issue so I did not exchange. Bad points : 1) High frequency sounds are not very clear and good quality in lower volumes , it's alright once sound is like 60-70% but since it has heavy bass listening to such high volumes can feel uncomfortable after some time. 2) The charging point design is not good : it's charging port is like deep inside the headphones body so normal phone charging cables cannot completely enter the charging port , only the cable that comes with the headphones will work . 3) Battery life seems very less than what they claim , tho I won't be very confident about this , only been 1 day using them so let's see they are after charging them to max one time again . 3 Stars if judging the headphones , 4/5 considering the price .

Sound quality is ok ok. But the battery life is amazing.
