Are there on-ear or over-ear? I have seen both mentioned online. Amazon says on-ear but they look like they'd be over-ear to me. Thanks.

Over the ear. Same as MDR1R phones except they have noise cancellation circuitry which works very well when turned on.

These go "on" the ear, but they cover and end up being "over" the ear. These are not like ear buds, so it's hard to describe how they are both on and over the ear, unlike earbuds that are "over the ear" or "in the ear."

Is aware mode on all the time or can you cancel it like if are walking around a track.Does it work as well as on over the ear bose headphones I have the latest version bose over the ear headphones.

They are over the ear and comfortable. The only complaint I have is probably not with the headphones themselves as much as over the ear headphones in general. They tend to get warm over your ears because they have no air circulation... hahahaThat being said, I love them. I have heard a couple of my co-workers complain about that though and I do notice my ears get a bit warm, the headphones do not heat up at all, just lack of circulation.

Logitech/UE does not have "newer" over-ear headphones. These have been discontinued and they do not currently have a model that replaces these. You should either get these, or pick a different make & model altogether.

I am looking for the same information, after a google search it seems that these are a little short for earbuds. Which is fine with me, I use an extender to work with my phone and am a short person so I was hoping for a shorter pair. I think I will order them and if no one responds by the time they come I will let you know. I have been looking at these, they have an extender that might be useful to you:http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-CX-Ear-Headphone-Black/dp/tech-data/B000WOIG8C/ref=de_a_smtd

How big of ears do you have :-)Honestly tho, they are over the ear. I have two of these, the standard and the 5.1 series. Standard for my son, he's 8 and the 5.1 for me. I use these headphones for my PC, Xbox, Wii, Android, Tablet, Surface, anywhere. Now, most of those I have a stereo mini plug for them, but, the bluetooth transmitter does work with my surface and are pretty cool looking. If this company made a noise cancellation model, I would get it as well.More info than you wanted, but, I tried many headphones...From Medusa, to Turtle Beach, to Sennheiser, to Sony, to Logitech, to Triton, etc, etc...and a few off names in between. For the money, these are great. How big of ears do you have :-)Honestly tho, they are over the ear. I have two of these, the standard and the 5.1 series.

Hey Dave, there is a slight discomfort that adds up, I wouldn't be able to wear these for 15+ hours. With that said I find on-ear headphones to be discomforting in general, the sides of my ears get pinched and if you have sensitive skin it will leave bruises and your ears will look like a banana peel. I wouldn't recommend on-ear headphones for extended usage, over the ear headphones would be ideal. I think you can order custom earpads for the device, not sure how much they cost but I'm sure you probably don't want to spend additional money for that. Maybe consider the Audio-Technica's M50X I reviewed both these headphones on my channel. Cheers! Hey Dave, there is a slight discomfort that adds up, I wouldn't be able to wear these for 15+ hours.

They are technically "on the ear" headphones. The M-100 V-Moda's are the over the ear version. I have both and the V-80 (also know as M-80 in the non-true blood versions) are the better of the two in my opinion....they are lighter and less fatiguing overall. Both, however, sound wonderful!

I guess you could wear them flipped around and in opposite ears... but over the ear really is the best way for these. They're incredibly comfortable and it barely feels like you're wearing anything.

sorry I don't know, the only reason I both these was for the over the ear feature and the long cord and as a back up, I also have a pair of bose in ear and really like these the best, for sound and for my comfort level. I use the bose the most for walking the dog, going for a run, or just listening. I now keep the beats on my desk and use them quit a bit for listening to music at my office and listening to recorded meetings. By the way we may have a different taste in music depending on your age I am a 60 year old grandma.

They are an over the ear design. I really like them I find them very comfortable to wear even for 6 hours or so at a time.

I wear glasses and have no problems with them. They are on-ear however rather than around the the ear. If you have a friend then try before you buy. If you are in the DFW area, give me a holler and Ill let you try mine.

Hi there. I'm one of the customers that have bought these. These earbuds are for the device itself, when worn in one ear. They fit very well.

Are these bendable ? I have a cheapo pair of another brand and they're OK but kind of wide for my head so they don't sit close enough to my ear.I need a pait that I can bend so it stays put .PS: I don't like the in the ear buds and rather stick with this type of design but need a pait that I can bend inward.Thanks

Over the ear. Not very bright and can be turned off too. Think they are good for all music. Seem good to me for long use. Pads on the top and the ears and not too tight on the head.
