Noise isolating and hypo-allergenic ear cushions to keep outside noise to a minimum so you can keep the volume down. With this in mind, one of the safety feature that POGS implemented with their headphones is the maximum volume. What this means is that, the headset limits the loudness level of the sound it produces to acceptable level that will not cause any potential damage to the hearing of the children. Furthermore, even if you set the device volume level to maximum to increase the loudness of sound produces by the headset, the headset will simply adjust its setting to keep the loudness level within the safety range. Pretty cool right?

OK, so after begging for days, you’ve finally caved and got them their most-wanted piece of tech – perhaps a fancy smartwatch or a Nintendo Switch, maybe even a tablet or a smartphone. Kudos to you, you could’ve just got them a Tamagotchi.One particular aspect that we find odd for the headphones is the size and the placement of the control buttons. For one, we assume that kids won't even care about the control buttons. They'll be wearing them and remove them like it's nothing. So we would prefer to have larger buttons, at most, since we also assume that parents will be the ones to use these controls. Furthermore, pressing the buttons should not be easy. What mean is that, there's almost no opposing force when pressing the buttons and this could result to unwanted presses when the child is lying down. The POGS headphone are engineered to adjust as the child grows. It comes with an adjustable headband sizes and you can adjust the headphone up to three different levels.

The POGS headphones are rated to last up to 12 hours of continuous listening. Unfortunately, we are not certain about the battery capacity used for these headphones. Battery score: 8.5/10 After testing the headphones ourselves, we can conclude that the sound quality is above average. Low tones can be heard but is weak, the mids and highs are clear in a sense of satisfactory experience but nothing miraculous. Sound quality score: 6.5/10

Battery: how long does the POGS headphones last?

The POGS headphones comes equipped with 2 to 3 control buttons depending on the model. The one we have here is the wireless version and it has 3 control buttons; a Bluetooth switch, a power button, and a play/pause button. Other than that, along control panel are the audio cable port and the USB port. The headphones emit light on the sides. No bright light, but cozy light. In the shape of a tent. How well does the POGS headphones fit But kids’ headphones, more often than not, have a volume limiter on them, so developing ears stay safe. In our round-up, we’ve listed the maximum volume on all headphone entries, so you know they’re definitely child-proof.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) recommends 85dB as a safe maximum noise level for children for up to eight hours – that’s around the volume of heavy traffic. Some devices can go to 136dB when on maximum volume. Ouch. As we already mentioned above, children are more exposed and vulnerable to the harmful effects of loud noises including listening to loud music. Because of this, casual headphones that you can easily buy off the market including earphones and earbuds will simply not work. We also do not recommend using them for your children or to any kids. Despite being a little quieter than most we tested the audio from the 40mm drivers was fine. We’ve heard worse full-sized designs that cost more, but they do sound – probably deliberately and sensibly – rather restrained. Again, see the previous statement before buying for discerning older teens. Sound quality from the 40mm drivers is as good as it needs to be and the battery life is solid, with 16 hours with noise cancelling on and 24 hours with it switched off. The standby charge is rated to 200 hours too, so you shouldn’t have to keep charging them.Because children’s and teenagers’ ears are different to adults’, you can’t just sling them a pair of your cans to shut their devices up, we’re afraid. For one, their ears are smaller, but they’re also still developing. If children are exposed to loud sounds, it can cause irreparable damage to their hearing, and maybe even permanent hearing loss.
