    I bought these for my son. I have my own pair and find them to be comfortable and when I have audio playing I can't hear anyone that talks to me. Perfect for tuning out at work and getting it done.

    The noise cancelling is amazing on these headphones. I always wear them when I go to the college library to study and people are being too loud. They are also very comfortable, even during long use.

    I’ve been wanting these headphones for over 6 months, so when these went on sale for Black Friday, I didn’t waste a minute to buy them. These headphones are so comfortable and are truly noise-cancelling. They’re even good to use for work calls. Love that it can connect up to 2 devices at a a time, and I’ve only had to charge them 2-3 times in the month I’ve had them. Best splurge ever!

    Nice and comfortable, wish the earmuffs wouldn't produce as much heat as it does but I guess that is standard across most headphones. Great audio quality. Battery life wasn't as long as claimed. Ran out of battery multiple times after 10 hours of use.

    It really cancels out noise when you just want to lock in. Really helped me during my days to study for the boards. I love going to cafe, but sometimes it could get really loud, but with this device. It helped me focus better because of the noise cancellation it provides.
