Creative Zen Hybrid

Yes. Love these. I'm on my second pair of daily, nearly all day, use. Let's see. First pair I bought 23 Feb 2023. They still work but I fell over, wearing them, a couple of times and they got stotted off the ground. Went a little bit crackly. The second pair I bought on 14 Nov 2024 and I haven't fallen over wearing them, yet. Them coming off my head when I hit the ground (slipping on greasy flagstones) - that's not the fault of the headphones. They're pretty secure under normal circumstances. Lightweight? Well, that's relative. I can wear mine all day without any kind of neck strain. I will say, though, that the cups need careful adjusting to not trap earlobes or earrings. I have quite small ears, too. Sometimes, I have folded my earlobes up so they don't get squashed. Cheaper than the Hybrid 2s (which I did buy and promptly returned because I just couldn't turn the bass down enough and I could hear the distortion it was creating). Comfortable? Yes, if you make sure your earlobes aren't trapped and the tops of the cups aren't squashing the arms of your spectacles into the tops of your ears (that can be quite painful and we don't tend to notice until it's too late). Extremely straightforward to use. Charging speed? Not sure. Mine never lose charge because I charge them while sleeping. They last many hours of playback in between charges. I've never had to emergency charge them. These are a thing that I would be distraught to find discontinued. Please, don't stop making them.

I recently invested in a pair of these headphones, and I am thoroughly enchanted by the auditory journey they've taken me on. These headphones have truly redefined my listening experience, and here's why I believe they're a cut above the rest: Immersive Sound Quality: The heart of any great headphone lies in its sound quality, and it delivers a truly immersive audio experience. From the deepest bass tones to the crispest highs, every note is rendered with clarity, providing a full spectrum of sound that brings my music, podcasts, and movies to life. Comfort Redefined: Wearing these headphones is like having a cloud cradle your ears. The over-ear design and plush cushions provide a level of comfort that allows for extended listening sessions without any discomfort. It's a blissful escape into the world of sound. Sleek and Stylish Design: Not only do these headphones deliver in performance, but they also make a statement in style. The sleek and modern design, coupled with premium materials, gives them a sophisticated look that complements any outfit or setting. Wireless Freedom: The freedom of movement that comes with wireless functionality is a game-changer. The seamless Bluetooth connectivity allows me to wander around without being tethered to my device, enhancing the overall listening experience and convenience. Impressive Battery Life: I can enjoy hours upon hours of uninterrupted listening on a single charge. It's a relief to not constantly worry about running out of battery during long journeys or extended use. Intuitive Controls: The intuitive controls on the headphones make adjusting volume, skipping tracks, and taking calls a breeze. The buttons are responsive and strategically placed, adding to the overall user-friendly experience. Durable Build: The build quality of these headphones is top-notch.

Bought for a flight to Vegas for myself and my partner. I was very happy with them for the price and had no problems at all using them on Virgin Airways. If you want better sound quality or better noise cancellation then pay more, if you want something that works well and that you don't need to worry about losing or breaking then these are great. Battery life is as stated. Comfortable for me. Seem quite robust. Noise cancellation and sound are good enough to relax and watch a couple of movies without a problem.

Very pleased with these. The sound is lively, detailed and nicely balanced with neither the bass or treble overpowering the other. They can chuck out copious quantities of both when asked. They're comfortable but can be a bit wearing after extended sessions, although I'm finding that less of an issue the more I wear them. I've had a few issues with bluetooth with past bluetooth headphones. I live near to a TV transmitter and have found that as soon as I step out the front door the sound starts to break up as the bluetooth signal gets swamped unless I have my iPod (remember those) under 2 feet from the phones/earbuds. Not so with these, they performed quite happily with my iPod in my pocket which my last few wouldn't have. Noise reduction is fine, but not stellar. Fan noise in a hot room disappears completely. On the tram today the low frequency rumble from the tram was cut completely which made the listening environment far more usable, but the higher frequency remained. I prefer not to use ANR if possible anyway as it enhances battery life and affects the music. It can be useful but just don't expect it to cut out all exterior noise, that's not going to happen. Given that I paid £45 for the black ones after a £12 voucher was applied I rate them as a fantastic buy for the money.

Good looking device, very comfortable too. Sound quality is good. This brand is in the business for ever, I am from that generation that had the speakers next to the PC from them. All in all good product, but compared to other brands, the Active noise cancellation non existing.

Comfortable and excellent sound quality Build quality OK. Nothing flash just plain plastic material. Switch and buttons adequate. I used the sound enhancement app SXFI which is enabled on these headphones and found that it made a noticeable difference to the sound quality and listening experience. They do have reasonable noise reduction both passive and active. It is defiantly an improvement in some situations. They fold up and will fit into a standard headphone hard case, non supplied.

My wife bought these headphones in white over a year ago and kept asking me to try. I should've listened sooner. The noice cancellation works well at reducing any ambiance noise. I was really surprised by the sound quality. The size is great and the works really well. I'm extremely happy with the battery life also. My wife finds them a bit heavy after a few hours of use but I have had no problem. Overall great sound, great noise cancellation and very comfortable to wear. I'm very happy to have my own pair now.

A solid, if slightly cheap feeling pair of headphones, but this adds to the lightweight feel of them. The Battery lasts for a moderate amount of time with ANC On, but the fact that it has 3 ways to connect, two of which includes the use of cords or USB-C cable really helps when you are out of Juice! Really easy to use, though I do find that the lack of multipoint connections does dampen the experience a little. I really enjoy the full fit over my ears so they aren't pressed together is quiet comfortable and comforting. Overall decent value for money as I've paid alot more for alot worse before!
