The headset has served well during zoom calls as well as for studying purposes in both the campus and in an office setting. The color has not faded and no deterioration of any kind can be perceived. I do recommend you keep the headset in a headset mount as keeping folded withing its case for an extended period of time CAN distort the shape of the ear cushions.For the Gym: The headsets have slight heft but nothing that will throw you off during a workout. I will advice not to buy this set for a dynamic style of working out as too much motion can cause the set to fall off your head but it can definitely withstand sessions of squats, bench pressing, dips, etc. Have not tested them for deadlifts. Do give them a quick clean to ensure it remains odor-free and clean. Hope this helps.

Excellent product, works as claimed and looks good. Great for use on the road or in the office, and long battery life for coast-to-coast flights.

These are my favorite headphones / earbud product I have ever owned. I've never been one to choose headphones over earbuds before but I L-O-V-E LOVE these. The music goes into your soul. I don't really use the buttons on the side very often, maybe when I'm cooking. But I do appreciate them.

The performance of these are dynamic enough to be 1st place. Bose is nice, but these KNOCK
