Everything but the materials used is top-notch. It's fully plastic with next to no weight, which is a good thing for long use times. Can't say it's “flimsy” but also can't say it's out of the box feel gives you good vibes. owned for a year and nothing has degraded. Bass is deep and treble is crisp. i've owned $900 headsets and this headset puts them to shame at the price. Would buy again.
