Sony On-Ear Wired Headphones vs Atak Stereo On-Ear Headphones

Buy the Sony if you want a wired headphone with a known sound signature, a folding frame and an in-line mic for calls. The Atak is a budget on-ear with a small review base and a 3.9 rating, so expect thinner build and less consistent sound. Sony's 4.5 from 8,800 ratings is the stronger signal; the Atak's listing text describes earbuds, not this headphone, which tells you little about the product itself.

• Choose the Sony if you want a folding wired on-ear with a 3.5 mm jack, an in-line mic and a long track record of owner ratings.
• Choose the Atak if you want a simple black on-ear and the Sony's folding hinge and gold-plated plug are not worth the step up to you.
