First of all, the colors are gorgeous. I get so many compliments just for it's look! It rests comfortably around the ears. It is light weighted. Unfortunately, since I have a curly big hair, it pulls out my hair when I remove them! Overall, the sound quality is good. It would be perfect for me if there was also noise cancelling feature.

The h.ear on headphones is a great step up from your average run of the mill earphones and provides great performance for headphones in it's category. I normally use my earphones to listen to music and I would sometimes crave for more sound cancellation and higher fidelity. The h.ear on headphones provided that and really did make a difference in the way I listen to music. Even listening through Spotify, I could hear a difference in quality and it let me hear elements I could never hear before using normal earphones or entry level headphones. When listening to hi-res or uncompressed audio, the difference is really apparent, even for someone like me who is not an audiophile. The design is the thing I love the most, it is minimal and comes in great colours. I also like how you can detach the audio cable.

Really impressed with the new 'hear.on' hi res lineup - the MDR-100AP has the traits of the bigger brothers from MDR-R series and the headphones have the signature neutral/flat soundstage with great clarity. Only quibble with these is that its perhaps too flat for some tastes and lacks the warmth from the low end. Tried these with the new hi-res walkman and it sounded absolutely fantastic. The headphones are significantly lighter than most over ear headphones which means that its comfortable over wearing a long period of time - really impressed. Overall a great choice for those wanting something more, not to mention the flat cable stops the cord from tangling as much (thank you Sony!)
