Shoppers say these headphones rival Beats — and Amazon's got 'em on sale for $20

Take it from over 57,000 five-star reviewers — these rock.

Big-brand headphones can be super expensive — like, more than $200 type of expensive. But that's in large part because of high-end features you might not necessarily ever use. If what you want is reliable, comfortable and wireless cans, then iJoy Wireless Headphones — on sale at Amazon for $20 — could be the solution for you.

According to over 57,000 (!) Amazon reviewers, these headphones deliver excellent audio and then some. The jaw-dropping low price makes this purchase a no-brainer. (Only the black headphones are discounted.)

Some fans say they prefer these headphones to other, big-name brands like Sony and Beats — headphones that'll likely set you back $200 to $400. Sure, you'll miss out on some features, but fans say the iJoy headphones are more comfortable and come close in terms of sound. And when it comes to spending $17 or $400, it's a clear choice.

With soft ear cups, a foldable design and a matte finish, these headphones are a great mix of practicality and style. The built-in microphone allows you to answer calls from your phone. Charging is fast and strong. And there are physical controls for the usual functions: play, pause, track and volume. How's this for an awesome bonus? These iJoy rechargeable headphones also have a built-in radio receiver! A mode switch takes them from Bluetooth to FM radio.

Of course, the most important aspect of any pair of headphones is sound quality, and the iJoy really delivers — more than 57,000 shoppers give these a five-star rating.

“They hold their charge for several hours and the sound is very clear,” wrote one five-star reviewer. "I didn’t realize that they also had the ability to receive and play FM radio on their own (with static) so was kind of strange experience when I hit the pause button on my audiobook and started hearing music and talking (I reconnected my phone and the Bluetooth took over again fine). The headphones do hurt my ears a bit after a couple hours, but maybe my ears are on the bigger side."

Another reviewer put it best: "These headphones really deliver!! I wanted headphones to use in bed because my husband goes to bed really early and I wanted to be able to watch a movie or something in bed without waking him up. These headphones have an amazing sound! Seriously reminds me of surround sound in a movie theater. Amazing sound!! Very comfortable on my head and ears too!! Earpieces are very cushiony!"

"I love these headphones!" wrote another reviewer. "I love the sound quality, and they seem to do a great job at canceling the outside noise (at least for me). I tend to have them on for about 4-5 hours a day. The only con I have experienced is that if I wear them for a longer period of time, at some point my ears (on the outside) will start to hurt a bit, but that’s not a deal breaker. I just take it as a sign to either take them off or switch to my AirPods. Overall though, they’re worth it!"

"Probably the best headphones I have gotten," another shopper shared. "They're nice and comfortable and pretty loud too. The only con I have [is] people can hear your music when it's too loud but overall I would buy them again."

With a six-month warranty and a built-in radio receiver, these headphones can go the distance.
