A must have if you want wireless
I can honestly say these wireless headphones are a top pick because of the clarity and crisp sound. There is even noise reduction or cancelling features (which I grade as a B), as I use these headphones when I'm cutting grass with my riding lawn mower.The bass is good. The blue tooth when connecting to a phone is surprisingly good, although the headphones feel awkward when using them in blue tooth mode. The sound is clear and the person on the other end can hear you clearly unless you have the headphones on opposite ears. Comparing them to the beats, which I have I would have to say it's worth a discounted purchase price but not full price. I give the power on button, which controls volume, and talk features, an average to below average grade because it is a bit flimsy. The padding that cover the ears provides enough support that the headphones does not hurt the ears after extended wearing of the headphones. This headphone is a must buy if the price drops anywhere north of $150. The headphones charge fully in about 2 hours with the provided cord and remains charged a few days if moderate usage occurs. The option to use these headphones as wired is a plus. The provided bag to house the headphones provides no real protection so you may want to purchase a case for them. However, they do fold up which makes storing them good. The faux leather and material that the headphones are made from seems to be durable for now but I have only had these for a few months with daily usage so durability is still in question.

Exceptional sound!
Really exceptional sound and the bluetooth works very well. Controls are easy to use. Only drawback is that the headphones have a very loose fit to them and jostle around a bit even on a walk. I would not recommend these as an active headphone set but for listening at your desk or in the office, fantasic.

I bought these on sale for $80,and a better deal you cannot find.I have lost so many headphones over the years due to the wired connection failing,that going wireless with great quality headphones has been a reevaluation.They are great sounding once you get a great source and the battery life is as stated at about 12 hours,and it really doesn't take long to recharge,plus you have the added bonus of having a wired connection available to you,should you ever run out of juice.
