Creative Flex: unboxing and analysis

The Creative Flex come in a small plastic and cardboard box, although the first is the most abundant since practically the entire box is a window, something that is great so that we can see the product in great detail before taking it home with we. Creative has taken advantage of all the space offered by the cardboard to add its logo and highlight the main characteristics and specifications of the helmets.

Once we open the case we see a blister that contains the cases and their accessories, this time they are reduced to a bag with some spare trims in various colors and a couple of warranty leaflets in several languages, there is nothing else inside box.

We see the bag with a total of eight spare trims in orange, green, black and blue. One of the characteristics of these helmets is the customization that these trims offer us so that we get bored of always seeing the same style, a nice detail to make a difference with its competitors.

We now turn to look at what really matters, helmets. The Creative Flex come folded inside the blister and is that if customization is one of its characteristics, the other is a design that allows us to fold them to store them very easily, they are also really light helmets with a weight of only 136 grams. The lightness of the Creative Flex is appreciated when carrying them on our heads for a long time, it really is almost like not wearing anything.

We have a classic height adjustable headband design that will make them comfortable and comfortable for all users to adapt perfectly to our heads, in addition the headband is lightly padded with foam to improve comfort. The union of the headband with the area of the headphones presents an articulated design that allows you to bend 90º and rotate, of course the helmets do justice to their name.

We are already focused on the area of the headphones, firstly it is the external part that is what everyone will see when we go out on the street with helmets, we see a design with microperforations in the plastic that looks quite attractive and of course the anchors for the different trims with which we can add a touch of color to the helmets, each day a different combination to surprise and not get bored.

We turn to look inside the earphones area, we see some soft cushions and finished in synthetic leather. The negative part of the pads is that the helmets make little pressure in this area so we already expect that the insulation from the outside will shine due to its absence, well at least no one will run us over for not listening to their car when we go there. Under the pads are neodymium drivers with a size of 32 mm, a fairly modest size for what we are used to seeing although we do not doubt that Creative will have opted for high quality units to maintain an excellent sound despite its small size These drivers have a frequency response of 20Hz ~ 22kHz.

Finally we see the cable with its three-way 3.5 mm mini jack connector, two of them for the speakers and the third for the microphone. Speaking of the microphone, it is integrated into the cable along with a button that will help us answer calls.

Final words and conclusion

Creative has surprised us with an interesting proposal for users who are very fond of listening to music with their portable devices on a daily basis. The Creative Flex are helmets that we can use with a large number of devices and in a very comfortable way thanks to their extremely simple and light design that also allows them to be folded for easy storage.

WE RECOMMEND YOU Review: Creative Muvo Mini

Its neodymium speakers with 32mm drivers do a very good job and its great quality allows it to maintain a very good sound despite its small size, it is true that the bass is weaker than with larger headphones but they keep the type very well and offer us excellent sound. We have found it a success to have included a microphone in the cable itself, something that allows us to answer calls in a very comfortable way.

Finally we highlight the option to personalize the Creative Flex with the set of trims that the brand provides us, without a doubt a distinctive touch that will please many. The Creative Flex are for sale for an approximate price of 40 euros, not bad considering that they offer us a rather curious design and remarkable sound quality.
