No bad at all if you simply desire some headphones due to the fact that you are tired of sticking ear buds/air capsules in your ear. I have not used headphones since I was little and had a portable CD player. So it was nice. Love the color I chose. Also, If you're ruined by quality, and like to mess around with the base & other sound attributes, I don't suggest these. They are additionally not noise canceling. Was hoping they would be, but no worries. I plan to use them up until I can not say goodbye to.
