How We Research
We compare products from their published specs and features; the verdicts below are our independent editorial opinions.
If you want a big classroom set of simple in-ear earbuds that are cheap to hand out, replace and store, choose Konohan 100; if you need on-ear headphones that actually sit around a student's head with wipeable cushions and a longer cord, choose YFSFQS Class Set Headphones.
• Konohan 100 — biggest strength: a 100-piece bulk pack of individually wrapped in-ear earbuds, so a whole class, testing room or event can be equipped from one box.
• Konohan 100 — biggest trade-off: these are in-ear buds, not on-ear headphones, and they have no microphone and no inline controls, so they suit listening and testing rather than calls or interactive audio work.
• YFSFQS Class Set Headphones — biggest strength: a 20-pack of genuine on-ear headphones with soft, wipeable ear cushions, an adjustable fit and a single 4.5 ft cord per unit — better for shared, repeated student use.
• YFSFQS Class Set Headphones — biggest trade-off: you get 20 units instead of 100, and the on-ear design is bulkier to store than a bag of earbuds.
• Pick Konohan 100 if you need maximum headcount, the smallest possible footprint, and you're fine with in-ear buds.
• Pick YFSFQS Class Set Headphones if comfort, hygiene and a proper over-the-head fit matter more than sheer quantity.
The Konohan 100 is a bulk box of wired, in-ear earbuds — 100 pieces, each individually wrapped in its own bag. That single fact tells you almost everything about who it's built for. This is a set you buy when the problem isn't "which headphones are nicest" but "I need something for everyone in the room, right now."
The buds themselves use soft silicone tips with a rounded shape, which the spec sheet frames around comfort and staying put — the idea being you can wear them a while without pressure and they won't slide out easily. The cable is PVC and measures 90 cm, or roughly 35 inches, and the whole thing terminates in a standard 3.5 mm jack. Audio is handled by a dynamic driver with a 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz range, and there's no built-in microphone. That combination — soft tips, a fixed short-ish cord, no mic — is exactly what a testing centre, library, museum front desk or exam hall wants, because there's nothing to fiddle with and nothing to configure.
Who should skip it? Anyone who needs an on-ear headphone that rests around the ear rather than inside it. Anyone who needs a microphone for calls or voice recording. And anyone who needs a long cord — at 90 cm this is a fairly short reach, fine for a phone or laptop on the desk in front of you, less ideal if the audio source sits across the room.
YFSFQS Class Set Headphones: Who It's For
The YFSFQS Class Set Headphones take the opposite approach. This is a 20-pack of on-ear headphones — the over-the-head kind with ear cups, not buds — and every unit is individually packaged and sealed. The ear cushions are described as extra soft and, importantly, wipeable. That last detail is the quiet hero of the whole product: in a shared classroom or library, being able to wipe a cushion down between users is the difference between a set that gets used and a set that gets locked in a cupboard.
The fit is adjustable, which is a real advantage when the same set has to work for a seven-year-old and a teenager in the same afternoon. The ear placement is on-ear with an over-ear shaped cup and a build mixing silicone, fabric and memory foam — so there's actual padding against the head rather than a hard plastic shell. Impedance is 32 ohm, which is the friendly, easy-to-drive range for phones, tablets and laptops, and the driver is dynamic with the same 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz range as the Konohan. The cord is 4.5 ft / 1.2 m and runs as a single cable to both ears, which is a deliberate choice: no Y-split to tangle, no separate left and right leads to knot up in a storage bin.
The plug is a standard 3.5 mm jack, and the manufacturer lists compatibility with smartphones, Chromebooks, tablets, laptops, computers, fitness and audio equipment — the usual spread for a school device cart. Age range is listed as kid, teen and adult, and there's a one-year warranty described. Colours come as a mixed set, which is worth knowing if you're matching them to a colour-coded classroom or want to hand out specific colours to specific tables.
Who should buy it? Teachers and school staff equipping a classroom set they'll reuse term after term. Librarians loaning headphones at a desk. Anyone running a hospital, clinic, gym, hotel or museum where a headphone goes on a person's head and comes back to be wiped and reissued. Anyone who wants an actual headphone rather than an earbud.
Who should skip it? Anyone who needs far more than 20 units in one go, or who needs the absolute smallest storage footprint. On-ear cups take up more drawer space than a bag of buds, and 20 is 20.
• Best for maximum headcount → Konohan 100. One box covers 100 people; YFSFQS covers 20.
• Best for on-ear comfort and a proper headband fit → YFSFQS Class Set Headphones. Adjustable, padded, cups around the ear.
• Best for hygiene in shared use → YFSFQS Class Set Headphones. The ear cushions are designed to be wiped clean between users; soft silicone buds are far harder to sanitise properly.
• Best for long listening sessions without ear fatigue → YFSFQS Class Set Headphones. Padded on-ear cups spread pressure across the head instead of sitting inside the ear canal.
• Best for cord reach → YFSFQS Class Set Headphones. 4.5 ft / 1.2 m versus 90 cm on the Konohan, and a single tangle-resistant cord to both ears.
• Best for a testing room where simplicity is everything → Konohan 100. No mic, no controls, no adjustments — plug in and listen.
• Best for handing out and not expecting them back → Konohan 100. Individually wrapped, low-cost per unit, and a natural giveaway for events and parties.
• Best for a mixed-age group in one room → YFSFQS Class Set Headphones. The adjustable fit and kid/teen/adult age range cover more heads.
If I were kitting out a classroom, library or clinic where the same headphones get used by different students week after week, I'd buy the YFSFQS Class Set Headphones. Wipeable cushions, an adjustable on-ear fit and a longer single cord are the three things that decide whether a shared set survives a school year, and this one has all three. The Konohan 100 is the smarter buy only when the job is sheer volume — testing days, one-off events, giveaways — where 100 simple wrapped earbuds beat 20 nicer headphones. In my opinion, for anything described as "on ear headphones for students," YFSFQS is the better fit.
No. The Konohan 100 is a bulk pack of in-ear earbuds with soft silicone tips and a 90 cm cable. The YFSFQS set is on-ear headphones with padded, wipeable ear cushions, an adjustable headband and a 4.5 ft cord. Different form factor, different use case.
That depends on what you're counting. Per unit, the Konohan gives you five times as many pieces in one purchase, which suits bulk handouts. The YFSFQS costs more per unit in spirit because it's a real on-ear headphone built to be reused. Check the current price on Amazon for both and divide by the pack size — 100 versus 20 — before you decide.
Neither. Konohan lists no built-in microphone and no noise control; YFSFQS also lists no noise control and no mic. Both are plain wired listening headphones with a 3.5 mm jack.
Yes for both. Each uses a standard 3.5 mm jack, and both are listed as compatible with phones, tablets, laptops, computers and similar audio devices. If your device has no headphone jack, neither will connect without an adapter.
