Are these "on ear" or "over the ear" headphones? In other words, does your whole ear fit inside the cup?

over for me--i have smaller ears though--if you have large ears--maybe not.

Of course it depends on the size of your ears!!! They are designed to fit over the ear.

Hi Marc, The model of these is simply "On-Ear" headphones. Thanks for your question.

I think these would be characterized as "On The Ear". While they are very good headphones (and the only Bluetooth 4) they do have a fairly strong "spring" effect on the head. Some people have complained about that. It makes for a firm fit on the head and that makes them almost as sound proofed as Over-The-Ear models. Hope this helps.

These don't push into your auditory canal, they sit in the concha of your ear. Although these cannot simply fit over the end of any regular headphone, they are for the end of tubing which directs sound into the ear from a two way radio or scanner.

I bought them for my girlfriend and I must say that they fit her pretty much over the ear. I do believe they're supposed to be designed to go above the ear though. Buy them! The sound is quality!

On ear headphones are more like the old school ones from the eighties, where they lay right on your ear, except now much more comfortable. The over ear headphone go over your whole ear so it is nestled inside the padding. Hope this helps.

They are over ear. And yes, they are VERY comfortable. The only complaint I have is that they are so comfortable that I will just leave them on after what I'm listening to is finished. I leave them on so long that my ears start to slightly sweat. I absolutely LOVE these headphones. I cannot say that enough. If you want comfortable, beautiful-sounding, yet very affordable headphones, these CANNOT BE BEAT!!! (pun intended, LOL)

Personally I didn't like the feel of the headphones. The ear cups don't have very deep impressions, and then the covering prevents your ear from going into the hole, I'd consider these on the line of being over the ear headphones because of this. I was also surprised at how hot my ears got. I couldn't wear them all day at work, I ended up returning them.

Over-ear; as per the NoiseHush site, these are "Around ear" http://noisehush.com/i7

They are over the ear and comfortable. The only complaint I have is probably not with the headphones themselves as much as over the ear headphones in general. They tend to get warm over your ears because they have no air circulation... hahahaThat being said, I love them. I have heard a couple of my co-workers complain about that though and I do notice my ears get a bit warm, the headphones do not heat up at all, just lack of circulation.

Yes they fit over the ear but they are a bit heavy. They sound really good for the money I wouldnt buy the beats.

Depends on the size of your ears. Personally, the bottom of my ears are "in" the cup of the headphone, but the top of my ears are "out" of the cup of the headphone. They feel very natural to me. I don't even notice where my ears are in relationship to the "cup" of the headphone. Also, I don't recall how many months (should be double digits by now) that I've been using these headphones, but they haven't lost any quality in that time period. I use them daily for 5-8 hours at a time and they have held up great! Wouldn't hesitate to purchase again.

I think these are more of your normal sit and listen headphones. They are not particularly sporty for that use I think? I think if you want that, you might need ones that go stick inside your ears as opposed to cup over them.

These are the kind that go into the ear canal. They are not the kind that rest inside the main part of the ear. To me they fit like any other in-ear bud. Hope this helps.

I would say "on top" - it's nicely padded but these are not headphones with a cavity that fits the entire ear

Are these bendable ? I have a cheapo pair of another brand and they're OK but kind of wide for my head so they don't sit close enough to my ear.I need a pair that I can bend so it stays put .PS: I don't like the in the ear buds and rather stick with this type of design but need a pair that I can bend inward.Thanks
