Price is down to 7.99. Seems like a really good deal. I have these headphones and think they are well worth this.

Got these pre-Christmas for my son when they were on for a similar deal. These are excellent headphones for the price. What I especially like is the cable attaches to the headphones via a standard 3.5mm audio jack so when it eventually goes wrong (as they all seem to do in our house) you can easily replace just the cable rather than binning them.

7.99? Not awful sound quality? They'll break in a few months then, you always get what you pay for

Don't know what these ones are like but the kids have have had several and they leak so much sound it's unreal. Very unusable on public transport

Well I wouldnt expect an audiophile to use these but my son is happy with sound quality for Youtube, games etc. As far as breaking goes, virtually all of the headphones we go through end up breaking because of the wires in the cable which, as I said earlier, is an easier fix with these. As far as always getting what you pay for - isnt HUKD all about finding bargain prices for hopefully decent goods? I only paid £150 for the Huawei P8 from yesterday's deal but according to many reviews it rivals the Samsung Galaxy S6 or iPhone 6. You'll find very few on here who would say "I'm not buying that because it's cheap"! :smirk:

Had these delivered Wednesday by argos, they are not the Hesh2.0, they are the older ones, so I've sent mine back. In typical argos outlet style the box was bashed to bits as well :disappointed:
Ordered the Hesh 2.0 from the Vodafone store on ebay Here instead. Fast postage as well, turned up next day.
Not perfect but certainly a good buy for £10 and great for the kids with the replaceable cable :smiley:

The vast majority of those who purchase seem satisfied (me included). Take a look!

Might sound a daft question - but how do you know if they are 2.0 or not?
I did notice that mine dont say 2 on the box...but then neither do the ones you linked to from Vodafone.
How do i tell? I find them a bit uncomfortable so its a good excuse to send them back if I have the 1's

Value for money is subjective, stop being a snob unless you intend on offering a suitable alternative in the same price range.

I've been a Skullcandy fan for a while. I've had their Smoke'n Buds and various Ink'd sets throughout the years and used the warranty to get them replaced once they break. I came across some Titan Buds on sale in Tesco, must be 3 years ago now, and they've been amazing, the build quality is extraordinary, the jack is bent, the colouring has worn away, but they still function fantastically.
NOW, these Hesh headphones, I also got a deal on them. The build quality is good, they look good, BUT the audio quality is quite rubbish and I ain't no Audiophile, I just know when the deep bass tones don't hit as hard as you KNOW they should. Just feels very mono. If I paid their RRP (about £50 I believe), I'd be extremely angry.
Even for £7.99, I'd opt for a pair of Philips or Sony of a similar price. Build quality may suffer, but audio quality will be better.
