30mm Drivers That Cover the Full Range
The ZX110 uses 30mm PET diaphragm drivers with CCAW (copper-clad aluminum wire) voice coils. The frequency response stretches from 12 Hz to 22,000 Hz, which is wider than most headphones at this price point even attempt. At 24 ohms impedance and 98 dB/mW sensitivity, they're easy to drive from a phone, tablet, or laptop. No amp, no fuss.
The 1,000 mW power handling is genuinely impressive for a budget headphone. You can push these hard without hearing distortion creep in.
Swivel Earpads and a Fold-Flat Build
The earpads swivel 90 degrees, which lets you wear them around your neck without the cups digging into your collarbone. They also fold flat for storage. The whole headphone becomes a compact slab you can slide into a backpack pocket or a desk drawer. At 120 grams without the cable, they're light enough to wear for a full afternoon of studying or working without your head complaining.
Simple, Reliable, No Nonsense
No Bluetooth to pair. No battery to charge. No noise cancellation to toggle. The ZX110 is a 1.2-metre wired headphone with a 3.5mm jack. Plug it in, music comes out. That's the whole pitch. The Y-type cord resists tangling, and the on-ear supra-aural design keeps sound close without full ear coverage, so you can still hear someone calling your name.

Who Is This For?
Student Who Lives in the Library
The fold-flat design and 120-gram weight make the ZX110 a backpack staple. The on-ear fit lets you hear when a friend taps your shoulder or the librarian announces closing time. And since it's wired, there's never a dead battery the night before a deadline.
Office Worker with a Shared Desk
Plug in at your desk, fold flat when you're done. The ZX110 takes up almost no space. The on-ear design means you catch a coworker's question without ripping your headphones off. Light enough that you don't notice them during a long afternoon of focus work.
Parent Who Needs a Reliable Pair for the Kids
Kids lose headphones. Kids break headphones. Kids sit on headphones. The ZX110 is priced so replacement doesn't hurt, built solid enough to survive a backpack, and wired so there's no Bluetooth setup to troubleshoot. Hand them over without stress.
