The Japanese companies Sony and Panasonic have been successfully competing with each other in the market for several decades, which allows both to create high quality products at a reasonable price. One of these includes the Panasonic RP-HF300 headphones, the direct competitor of which is the Sony MDR-ZX310 model, which is almost similar in characteristics.

Image is everything

In terms of design and ergonomics, the RP-HF300 impresses with its stylish form factor in 4 colour options (black, blue, white and pink), foldable design, light weight (124g), solid build quality, and strong reversible cable with mini L-plug -Jack. All this makes it convenient to use headphones not only at home or in the office, but also on the street. However as the practice of wearing shows, the headband is too rigid and squeezes the head, and therefore prolonged use can cause discomfort. So, there were no amenities without a fly in the ointment.

Sound for the price

Of course, we did not rely on Hi-Fi, but in general, on a 5-point scale, we rated the sound at 3.5. There is a slight dip in the mid and high frequencies, and intelligibility is not very good, the sound in these ranges is blurry, but when the ear gets used to it, the detail becomes better. There are no complaints about the lower case. The bass is deep and clear. The volume reserve is more than enough (110 dB), the manufacturer has provided for work in noisy places.

The RP-HF300 is a compact all-rounder for listening to music in any environment. Perfect for youth and hipsters.
