Raycon Global RBH890
The Raycon Pro Headphones receive mixed but heavily critical feedback, with multiple verified buyers reporting structural breakage after just one to two months of normal use. While sound quality, noise cancellation, and battery life are praised, the common failure point is the plastic hinge joint, which cracks and splits under everyday wear. Several users express deep disappointment given the price point, though a few find the product acceptable for casual lawn mowing or long flights.
Pros
- Excellent sound quality
- Great noise cancellation
- Long battery life (60 hours)
- Comfortable to wear
- Awareness mode for meetings
Cons
- Plastic hinge breaks easily
- Structural cracking within 1-2 months
- Flimsy build quality
- Not worth the price
- Cannot stretch to fit head
