MEElectronics HT-21 – My love will never be over!

12/03/11 – 9:00 PM – Snowing Happy Day in Edinburgh!

Tonight is gonna be a good night: I have finally got a superb sample of MEElectronics HT-21 Portable Headphones in my hands and the full night in front of me to experience them!

First look: the packaging has nothing fancy. The headphones are wrapped in a simple black and plastic box. It also contains a small pouch, it's plastic too, but it looks handy to carry the headphones on the go.

When I first grabbed the set of headphones. They looked fantastic and comfy: swivel cups, adjustable and foldable headband. I couldn't wait to plug them to my netbook and test their sound quality comfort - on goes Deezer!

15 minutes later and that’s me – with Jean Rock in my ears (small digression for your culture – Jean Rock is a French founder of nightclubs, disc jockey and singer-composer!) and his famous last composition “my love is over” – I am in love with the HT-21. One thing is sure: my love will never be over for you HT-21!

Despite my first feeling regarding the packaging – really sorry guys but I have come from a Marketing background and the small things make a difference for me. ON the positive side though, I can’t stop nodding my head to the beat of the music. I even started singing, perhaps a little too loudly!? I have just glimpsed the face of one of my flat mates: “Are you training for the next X-factor?!”

The sound quality is excellent. It is clear and premium. MEElectronics didn’t leave the things half finished. Thanks to the addition of enhanced and deep bass, these headphones deliver a stunning sound!

2 hours later and I am feeling the happiest reviewer on earth because my very sensitive ears can still tolerate these headphones. MEElectronics’ secret: they have cleverly thought out the design of the cups. First the supra-aural shape enables any listener to wear the HT-21 with comfort for long hours. The cups rest on the ear. Secondly, the closed design cuts outside noise and reduces sound that others nearby can hear. I stopped singing and I am sure that I am not bothering my flat mates with my crazy French songs!

Finishing the test with “Rainbow of love” – thanks Bob for this great song, so appropriate when looking at the Scottish weather. The HT-21 compatibility is once again well planned based on portable media trends: you can use them with iPod, iPhone, MP3/CD/DVD players, computers and all devices with a standard 3.5mm jack.

11:00 PM - It is time to repack. Slipping these foldable portable headphones in its handy pouch is easy and they fit into my handbag rather neatly. Compact, lightweight, I know they will be ideal for my bus journey tomorrow morning.

Verdict:

• I love: the portable, compact and very comfortable to wear for long hours of listening aspect; the stunning sound quality and the surprising price - very affordable; the wee pouch to carry them every day.


• I hate: the packaging in plastic and not eyes catching!


• Highly Recommended – a must have this year.
