Audio Technica has always been the limelight when we consider the budget segment of the earphones.and this product is no less.the build though plastic feels sturdy.good for the price.gold plated headphone jack also will help in durability.apart from that sound quality on these earphones are good enough for the price and probably one of the best in the segment.base is not that loud .overall experience is good.Only con is the lack of inline microphone which everyone might not consider.Overall it’s a bang for the buck
