Shoppers say these headphones rival Beats — and they're down to $20

We all need a good set of over-ear headphones. Sure, you can drop $200-plus on fancy headphones loaded with features you’ll probably never use. But if you just want comfy, reliable wireless headphones, iJoy Wireless Headphones could be the solution for you. And right now, you can grab these cans for just $20 at Amazon.

Why is it a good deal? 💰

If you want budget-friendly wireless headphones that actually deliver, most audiophiles will point you to headphones like Beats, which cost well over $100. But the no-frills iJoys are just as good and they won't leave your wallet empty. While the headphones in black are the only ones on sale, they're also available in six other colors with prices varying, but no more than a few dollars.

Why do I need this? 🧐

These cans are incredibly comfortable and lightweight. The ear cups are soft and comfortable, the fit is secure enough to survive a gym workout — and you won't feel them sitting on your head. You can expect great sound quality — even if you're not an audiophile, you'll notice the crisp treble and balanced bass when you play. As for battery life and durability, you can take them on vacation without worrying about them getting beat up, and charging is fast and strong.

Taking a call? The built-in microphone allows you to answer calls from your phone. And there are physical controls for the usual functions: play, pause, track and volume. They even have a built-in radio receiver — a mode switch takes them from Bluetooth to FM radio.

What reviewers say 💬

Without good sound, there's no glory and iJoy crushes it with shoutouts from more than 61,000 five-star fans.

Pros 👍

"I love these, the sound is about as good as my Beats and for the fantastic price they are better," said an enthusiastic shopper. "I'm a music therapist so I've had years of ear training in University and performances. I can tell a little difference from my Beats but the average person probably won't. I use these for watching tv late at night so I don't disturb my husband who isn't a night owl like me."

“They hold their charge for several hours and the sound is very clear,” wrote one five-star fan. "I didn’t realize that they also had the ability to receive and play FM radio on their own (with static) so was kind of strange experience when I hit the pause button on my audiobook and started hearing music and talking (I reconnected my phone and the Bluetooth took over again fine)."

This shopper put it best: "These headphones have an amazing sound! Seriously reminds me of surround sound in a movie theater. Amazing sound!! Very comfortable on my head and ears too!! Earpieces are very cushiony!"

Cons 👎

"The only con I have experienced is that if I wear them for a longer period of time, at some point my ears (on the outside) will start to hurt a bit," revealed one reviewer. "But that’s not a deal breaker. I just take it as a sign to either take them off or switch to my AirPods."

Another reviewer agreed: "The headphones do hurt my ears a bit after a couple hours, but maybe my ears are on the bigger side."
