The controls for the TREBLAB Z2 are decent. The physical buttons are easy to use and provide a good amount of feedback, so you know when you’ve issued a command. The controls are on the right ear cup, and the middle button has a raised dot, so you can easily tell which button you’re resting on without looking. The headphones also give you an audio cue when you reach max volume, and you get a good amount of functionality, including media/call control, and volume control. When using the headphones with the included analog 1/8″ cable, the ear cup controls no longer function and all inputs are done via a single button on the in-line remote/mic, which is a bit disappointing as the in-line remote is more difficult to use, and it doesn’t provide track skipping or volume control.
