Top 5 headphones for kids in India
The heaviest headphone and earphone users are teens and tweens. Most of them love to listen to music, watch movies, or YouTube videos on their smart devices while studying, working out, playing or working. But not all headphones are suitable for continuous listening, and may damage eardrums, especially of users under 18 years of age.
We looked through Amazon ratings and audio devices forums to locate these 5 highly rated headphones that are also safe on the ears. Before we start the list, we would like to inform that physicians have set the maximum audio output at 85 decibels for listeners under 18, and all of these headphones conform to that.
JBL JR300BT Kids Wireless Headphones
JBL is one of the world leaders in headphones, so there’s little surprise in the Amazon rating of 4.3 for this one. The ear cushions are large and soft, the headband also has a soft cushioning, making it comfortable to wear for hours. This is a Bluetooth headphone with a battery life of over 12 hours. The problem is that the pink headphones are easily available, while we have to look around a bit for the ‘cooler’ blue ones.
iClever Kids Wired Headphones
iClever is one of the trending Amazon brands, and the sales figures substantiate the high rating of 4.5 for this headphone. The bright blue and black colours make it a teen style statement. Since young people are more active, the company has made this product flexible enough to withstand rough use. Everything is cushioned, from ear pads to headband.
Mpow Kids Wired Headphones
A comparatively new brand, Mpow is available on Flipkart. Most audio forums rate it well and it is about to sell out on Flipkart too. The blue and yellow colour scheme is attractive to kids of all ages. An interesting feature included of Mpow is the Share Interface that allows one user to share audio with another user over a wired connection to another headphone. The company offers a warranty of 18 months instead of the usual 12 months.
Qushar Kids Headphones
Qushar made waves as soon as it landed in the market. Out of stock currently on Amazon, but with very high ratings on Indian audio and headphone lovers' forums online, it’s worth waiting for a month to buy it. It’s attractive to look at, cushioned, and made of high quality, durable material. Even the cable is premium quality tangle-free nylon.
MEE Kidjamz 3 Wired Headphones
MEE is a big name like JBL. This model has an Amazon rating of 4.1. It’s very comfortable with large ear cups, has a trendy look, and includes a switch to raise volume in noisy environments. This model, like the previous one, has a high quality tangle free cable.
