Does anyone know what model these are? Thanks
Hi there. These are being obtained from Amazon inventory so we don’t have a lot of information. Here it is on Amazon:

Found this:
model name HEGEAR13
are these good for gaming?
Over $100 on Amazon?! That seems a bit odd.
Pretty sure these are a white label headphone- bought an identical model (was called something else on Woot, but the box was labeled E11, and there’s a ton of clones all over the internet under different brand names), during the Woot audio sale a few days ago for $6.99. The manufacturer was even nice enough add a tasteful dusting of anthrax (note- PROBABLY wasn’t actually anthrax, just indistrial dust) to the inside of the box/ headphones, which I thought was a nice touch! But hey, $7 is $7
Long story short, if you care about sound quality at all, I’d skip these, even if they are only 12 bucks lmao. The music experience is akin to listening to some wub-wub techno bass tracks… From 3 rooms over. Which is to say they’re very, VERY muffled. It’s almost impressive how muffled/ muddy they sound, considering there’s nothing between the driver and your ear other than a thin sheet of neoprene. But hey, if that’s your vibe, I won’t judge!(okay, maybe a little)
That said, noise cancelling is actually pretty impressive- probably on par with anything in the $100 range. Props where they’re due.
All together, I’d rate 5 bins of flaming e-waste out of 10- probably something to get jr. so they can stop pestering you to use your primo cans. Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
Love my Mpow $12 cans. Over 2 years now and going strong.
Yes 90% of products Bluetooth headphones at this price point are white label manufactured in Shenzhen OEM rebranded. Doesn’t make them bad per se. Occasionally going to be some really decent OEM made earbuds that are reasonably well-tuned.
But sometimes it’s minimum viable product and sometimes it’s borderline e waste.
But I mean geez at $12 if they work at all if nothing else they’re a functional pair of backup headphones to have laying around that would work. Some cases that might be all you need like for a kid or as a backup if you don’t want to bring more expensive headphones out.
Just got mine. Trying for first time today. I am not an audio expert or care too much about sound quality. These sound ok to my ear. They are a head-vice though. Really tight.
