With on-ear headphones, the small ear cushions rest on your ear. Because the ear cushions don't shut you off from the outside world, on-ear headphones are suitable for on the go. This way, you can still hear a part of your surroundings. Do you often travel by train? Choose headphones with closed sound boxes, so your fellow travelers don't hear your music. Headphones with on-ear ear cushions are suitable for people who wear glasses. Glasses can move out of place with over-ear headphones, but this isn't the case with on-ear headphones.
