Review:
Good headphones with very dominant bass
I was sent these ShareMe headphones for review and overall I
am pretty impressed. They are well made, reasonably comfortable and have good
sound with an exceptionally powerful bass response – perhaps over-powerful for
some listeners.
The headphones are very nicely packaged and come with a standard mini-USB charging lead, a good jack-to-jack lead (with gold-plated plugs) for wired connection and a decent User Manual in comprehensible English. The headphones look very nice, I think, and fold up for easy transport and storage. (They fold and return into place with an unusually strong click, which I found a bit disconcerting, but it all works fine.) They have both Bluetooth and wired connection, and I noticed no difference in sound quality between the two modes. You can use wired connection to connect to non-Bluetooth devices, of course, and also use it if the headphones are out of charge which may be a handy feature.
The headphones are very are light and I've found them comfortable for pretty long periods. The controls are the usual you would expect: on/off and volume + and - buttons which also serve for pause/play, skip forward and back and standard phone controls, and there's a perfectly decent microphone. Bluetooth pairing is simple (standard pairing only - no NFC). I found both the battery life and range good.
The sound quality is good with exceptionally strong and very deep bass. Middles, too, sound very good and the tops are quite bright but lack real sparkle. I test all headphones and speakers (and I've tested a lot) using a playlist of test tracks which give all aspects of the sound a thorough trial. It starts with 16th Century choral music, it ends with London Grammar and it has most things in between - orchestral, choral, vocal and chamber music, classic rock, acoustic music and so on. For rock and the like these are great if you like *lots* of bass; for me, it gets a bit boomy and over-dominant at times, but others will find it very satisfying. In classical and acoustic music they seem to perform rather better and have a pleasing balance even though the tops aren't the brightest I've ever heard.
If you like a real bass boom in your music these will serve you extremely well. They are certainly very good headphones at this price. They seem solid and durable and if you're looking for a set of Bluetooth and wired headphones with really strong bass, I can recommend these.
