Our Verdict
Mpow H5 Wireless
Cowin SE7 Wireless
The Mpow H5 Wireless are better-sounding headphones than the Cowin SE7 Wireless and can also be connected simultaneously to two devices, which can be useful. Other than that, the two headphones are fairly similar in terms of controls and noise isolation. However, the Cowin seem to be a bit more comfortable, thanks to their soft padding. Their build quality seems a bit more durable, which explains their slightly more expensive price point. If sound is your biggest criteria, get the Mpow, but if durability and comfort are most important, the Cowin would still please most users, especially fans of bass-heavy music.
