Are these headphones comfortable for long usage and short usage because some reviews say they are not?

I have them and they are not comfortable at all. The head phone create uncomfortable pressure on my ears.

I typically wear these headphones no more than an hour at a time. I have found them comfortable as well as provide clear crisp sound.

They can be comfortable with both if you don't wear glasses, but if you do, then you might have to take them off occasionally, though they're not terribly uncomfortable.

James I don't know. I don't and not because they are uncomfortable but I use them to listen to online classes or podcasts. And neither take more than an hour.

Yes, they are very comfortable and I use them when I am out and about on my scooter (disabled). I use them on my iPod, at home on my computer. They have very soft cushion in both ears and and deliver the same sound as they did when I first bought them. I will use them for a few hours at a time and they are very durable. Hope this helps you, Jeff

At first I thought they were not comfortable. After day one I realized i was just not used to having huge headphones on my head. I have since gotten used to them and think they are very comfortable. That being said, I still can't where them for more than 2hrs at a time. After extended use, I will take them off for a couple of minutes, walk around and put them back on with no problem.

This pair of headphones are quite comfy. My only issue with them is that when I wear them for a long periods, my ears start to hurt, not because of the sound, but because they don't really sit well on my ears - that's probably because my ears are shaped kinda oddly, so its not really a fault of the headphones but of my genetics. Other than that, my brother has used these for 6 hours straight at one point and had no issue whatsoever. However, these headphones are open headphones so not only will the sound leak out (other people can hear it) if you put the volume too loud, but you will be able to hear other people as well. So if the airplane is gonna be noisy, you might as well not be wearing any headphones. This pair of headphones are quite comfy.

They are not the most comfortable , I wouldn't try to sleep in them, but as far as for headphone use, they are fabulous. The sound quality is amazing. I had a Bose set, but I like these better. Go for it Judy, you won't be sorry.

7.They are a good pair of cheaper headphones, which come with a nice case and are REALLY comfortable (you won't find much more comfortable headphones), but the sound quality is mediocre and the build quality is plasticky.

They are not the headphones for that "surround sound" effect. They are fine for just everyday general use (music, movies, games on a tablet).

I've had mine for about 6 months now, using them about every day, and thus far the only thing that has shown any wear is the leather-esque ear padding, which has started to gently loosen. This is a very insignificant thing to me, though if you intend on putting substantial wear on your set, it could lead to the material coming loose. That, however, is why I would deem these headphones as something that should not be out and about too much; an amazing at home/studio pair of headphones, not a pair to wear while dirt biking.

The noise isolation is good actually, it's on par with an over the ear headphone. Compared to over the ear headphones these aren't as comfy but it it could vary from ear shapes. The head band is extremely comfy the only place iv'e felt some pressure would be from the cups but i do wear them for hours and i usually keep the fit snug.

I have used them for gaming when my regular headphones broke, but not for regular use. If u had nothing else, I guess they would be fine, but not as a first choice. You can still hear too much background noise. Hope that helps! : )

Actually, they're surprisingly comfortable! I can say I used them for about five hours straight the other night mixing tracks and felt no noticeable discomfort. Just to be clear; you do notice them on your head, they just don't hurt. I wear glasses and the foam on these headphones seem to form around the frames (not pushing them into the the sides of my head). Oh, and the foam earpieces are large, so unless you have unusually big ears, you're ok (they really don't even touch your ears). Hope this helps!

These are not large headphones so there will be some pressure on your head. I have an above average head and enjoy them. The most I have listened to them is 4 hours in an 8 hour work day but I am sure I took them off for at least 15 minutes per hour

Diane, no they are not. I specifically bought them for that reason because I have heard from owners of wireless headphones that the battery does not last that long and in order to keep using them after the battery dies, you have to buy another battery (which aren't cheap). Hope this helped.

I would say that there is a considerable sound leakage as these are "on the ear" headphones. If you are worried about sound leakage you should consider "over the ear" headphones preferably with noise cancellation features.

i've worn them for more than an hour and they are comfortable; but i use headphones (not earbuds) for longer periods of time.

Yes. These headphones are comfortable (I wear them for hours a day at work) and have balanced sound reproduction. There are lighter headphones, particularly if you go with open ones (e.g. my old HD590s are exceptionally light and comfortable), but these are very good for listening to any music. As they are closed (good for blocking some background noise), you need to be extra careful to not listen at high volume for extended periods of time. They don't distort, but you will damage your hearing.

Depends on the size of your ears. Personally, the bottom of my ears are "in" the cup of the headphone, but the top of my ears are "out" of the cup of the headphone. They feel very natural to me. I don't even notice where my ears are in relationship to the "cup" of the headphone. Also, I don't recall how many months (should be double digits by now) that I've been using these headphones, but they haven't lost any quality in that time period. I use them daily for 5-8 hours at a time and they have held up great! Wouldn't hesitate to purchase again.
