Fun sounding with deep and punchy bass, smooth and full mids as well as good detail from the highs
The bass is the highlight of the sound signature. It goes deep and has very good punch too, yet at the same time stays fairly controlled. The mids are present and quite smooth, though not too forward. The highs do not stand out as amazing, though the level of detail is fairly good. Overall, a very good sounding pair of in-ear headphones which bass lovers will find to be quite enjoyable.

Con
Microphonics can be distracting
If you wear these in-ears while walking around, the movement of the cable can be clearly heard in the earpiece (called microphonics), which can be quite distracting.

Pro
Cable feels reliable
The headphone cable feels high quality and does not seem like it would break easily. They are also fairly flexible so they should not be too prone to tangles. The strain relief on the connection points of the cable to the earpiece keeps it from detaching easily when yanked.

Con
Muddy mids
Due to the bass being quite prominent, the mids take a negative hit, as the bass gives the mids a muddy sound. Guitars and male vocals will not sound very clear at times.

Produces deep and forward lows complemented by detailed and airy highs
The low end frequencies are what stand out from the sound signature. Bass goes deep and is pretty forward too, so you can clearly hear and experience the thump from your music. The highs are also crisp and airy, giving a lot of detail. This combination results in these headphones having a fun sound.

Con
Wearing these while on the move can be distracting
When the wires move or brush on your clothes, the rattling sound can be transmitted to the earpieces. This can be quite annoying.

Stays snug in the ears while you are active
Little rings called "Cush Fins" wrap around the earpieces, and give extra grip, and prevent the pieces from falling out. Also, these Cush Fins are quite soft and flexible so they do not have too much of a negative effect to comfort.

Included carrying case makes these easy to bring on the go
A fairly large, zip up carrying case comes included and should give these extra protection when taken on the go. You can just chuck this case into your bag without worrying about your headphones getting damaged.

Y-splitter is quite large and bulky
The Y-splitter can be an annoyance, as it is quite large and bulky. It can pull down on the earpieces and cause them to fall out of your ears, especially when you are on the move.

Great low end complemented by clear mids and fairly good highs
The low frequencies are what stand out from the sound signature. Bass goes pretty low and with good punch too. Also, the full deep end bass is achieved without muddying up the mids. The mids are smooth and clear, allowing vocals and guitars to be clearly heard. The highs are present, though slightly recessed, giving these headphones an overall warm sound.

Con
Earpieces are quite bulky

Treble can sound recessed

Great sound for the price
While the Marshall Mode does not offer a lot of features or top-notch build quality, it makes up for it with great sound quality. The bass has a slight emphasis which gives the sound good power and punch. The mids sound natural and slightly forward, while the highs are able to deliver a good level of detail without getting harsh. These earphones sound best for rock music, but can also deliver great low-end performance for hip-hop music and similar genres, and crisp highs for those who love classical music.

Con
Single button remote
Controlling smartphone and music functions is limited with the Mode’s inline remote. Only a single button is present, so you can only answer or end calls, play and pause music as well as skip tracks. You can’t control volume nor can you go to previous track.

Lightweight and comfortable
These earphones won’t cause comfort issues, even when worn for for several hours straight.. The earpieces are light so they don’t put a lot of weight in the ears.

Many ear tips to choose from
With the Marshall Mode, you’ll be able to get a good fit and seal in your ears. You get 4 pairs of ear tips in different sizes to choose from. The ear tips are also of decent quality, as they are not too squishy, so they should sit well in the ears and last a reasonable period of time as well.

ANC ON & OFF
Incredible noise cancellation brings you a wonderful immersive experience. It quietly reduces around 75% of external noise at low volume and 100% at medium volume. The ergonomic isolation also helps with the noise cancellation issue.

Con
Earbuds are good, charger design is bad
The earbud is good, fits well and is very pleasant to hear, what is wrong is the design of the charger, it looks like soap (rounded and smooth), it opens easily (especially when dropped) and the earphone fits in an illogical way, so , if you are clumsy, distracted, like to do things with one hand, his life will be short because it will fall a lot.

Good quality
The build quality of the headphones is good, the box too, but no metallic material (more resistant) on the hinge, so this part feels a little more fragile.
