are they on ear or over ear?

Over ear! Still miss these headphones, even though my current ones sound better.

Over-ear. They fit over my ears, though it requires a slight amount of tucking. This is good, because I've got glasses, and on-ears are painful.

These are over ear headphones. As for the guy who said they're cheaply made, they are under $11 and they are simply a re-branding of the OEM used by the Monoprice 8323 headphones which are widely regarded as offering a very sound high quality to price ratio. You can do much worse for $11 cans.

Not over the head but over the ear. I haven't used it in the gym yet but I think it will do ok.

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.

These fit over your ears. I would say go to the next size up to fit the hearing aid. If the hearing aid is big behind your ear it might not fit properly.

On ear headphones are more like the old school ones from the eighties, where they lay right on your ear, except now much more comfortable. The over ear headphone go over your whole ear so it is nestled inside the padding. Hope this helps.

They are over ear. And yes, they are VERY comfortable. The only complaint I have is that they are so comfortable that I will just leave them on after what I'm listening to is finished. I leave them on so long that my ears start to slightly sweat. I absolutely LOVE these headphones. I cannot say that enough. If you want comfortable, beautiful-sounding, yet very affordable headphones, these CANNOT BE BEAT!!! (pun intended, LOL)

It has been a while since I owned these, but I believe they were over the ear.

They are "over the ear". They are comfortable, but I don't know about comfort of the QC-15.

They are over the ear, but as one reviewer said they are loud. They are like having small radios attached to your ears. People around you can hear what you are listening to if the volume is high.

Starting from large to small, over ear headphones cover all of the ear, surrounding the whole thing including a bit of hair on the side of your head. You've likely seen professional artists that wear over ears for recording sessions, or radio announcers and DJ's that use them. On ear phones are smaller and rest on top of the ear itself with minute spaces where the seam isn't perfect. There is some noise reduction, but not like overears. In ears are often called "buds", because they are very small and insert into the ear canal like a hearing aid.

Both are rather comfortable so it really depends on the situation. When I'm on a long flight, over the ear is better and retains the sound to just me, as apposed to on ear which will allow everyone to hear what you are hearing. For doing something active, I prefer on ear because I can crank it as loud as I want to and they are lighter.

Not quite all the way around the ear. They touch a little bit. They are great head phones.

Do these sit on ear or are they like actually over the ear like beats, because this brand can be tricky.

I have medium sized ears compared to most of my friends and family and Yes, these do go over my ears. I found the cups feeling bigger than I first imagined they would. Though they might not look it, they are definitely over-the-ear headphones.
