We got our first 2 devices that I reviewed in the past few weeks from Beyond Innovations. First is my first check on n AKG headphone - the AKG Y30.
From the dominating colors, I knew on the colors that I will gonna expect.
The headphones come in yellow and black and this is one of the lightest that I handled so far but the product does not have that thick cushion to support the ears. It does not matter as I can freely use it for a number of hours.
Both cups have wirings. It also has a microphone for calls (I also used it as beta for my FB Live sessions) and it worked fine and play and pause button. The major factor for me is you can fold it even at this position that you can see below.
As for AKG, I am expecting it that it will really bring in a great sounding experience. Using Spotify, the output is on the balance side as I listened to the latest albums from Bloc Party, Tegan and Sara, Moonwlk and Rico Blanco and going some old school on Eminem's sophomore album. Nothing bad that I can say.
If there's one thing of concern for me, the thin protective lining looks like it will not allow you to replace it which will be something to watch out in wear and tear. Not sure if you can some protective cushions that is compatible to the size of Y30.
I know that you will be paying of money for an AKG as the Y30 is priced at Php 2,590 but it was worth it for the outstanding music output, added function, weight, quality and portability so I will gonna rate it at 4.75 out of 5.
