Urbanears Zinken Review

 

The Urbanears Zinken is both gorgeous and purposeful. The maker addressed most of the caveats that users faced when using a headphone; from the build quality down to the versatility that the TurnCable brings to the table.

Urbanears Zinken – Frapperande!

 

So what is a Zinken? Nevermind the fact I got these headphones in bright sky blue - I want to know what a Zinken is first. Well there is a Dr. Jorge Zinken, nah that is too obscure, oh wait I found this - an XDA community profile by a guy called Zinken.

Goodness, well done Urbanears – another complete surprise for me from a previously ignored headphone company. If this is a change in strategy and there is more like the Zinken to come out like the Philips strategy than I am going to enjoy this ride...

Urbanears Zinken review

 

Plattan and Bagis, two of the more popular lines of headphones from Sweden-based Urbanears, have gone up rapidly in popularity in just a couple of years. But not being one to sit on its laurels, Urbanears has now come out with the Zinken, its new line...

Simple yet elegant design ; Very functional, has a remote mic and can work on both a 3.5mm jack and 1/4 inch jack ; Tough and durable ; Sound quality is top notch ; Comfortable and ergonomic

The max volume is a bit lower when used on a mobile device

We started the review with a question about the worth of the Zinken: Does it justify its asking price of Php 7,950? A resounding yes! It’s comfortable to use, sounds great and has a very aesthetically pleasing and functional design. I dare say this is...

Urbanears Zinken review

 

Fun, vibrant design at the cost of questionable sound

Fun design ; Handy music-sharing feature

No volume controls ; Subpar sound performance

Aside from the iconic design and appealing splash of color, there's not much else saving these on-ear headphones from being a poor value overall.

Urbanears Zinken review

 

With so many headphones around from a seemingly infinite array of companies, it's often very difficult to find the right pair for you.

Stylish design; handy DJ features; Strong bass.

Unimpressive overall sound quality; build quality issues.

The Urbanear Zinkens offer strong bass, a stylish design and some handy DJ-friendly features, but they fail to impress with the overall sound quality so it's hard to justify the £120 asking price.
