||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted some headphones when I exercise and these are rated as a very good set and they are. I always buy my electronic stuff at Best Buy. I usually wait for the sales and I caught a good one with these headsets.

BEST HEADPHONE!!! if you dont mind the size
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got this headphone and a airpod pro. This headphones are amazing I cant describe how good they sound. Noise cancellation is amazing. Overall it is amazing if you do not mind the size. I ended up returning them since it was not compatible with windows 10. I was able to connect it and it works as a "output" so you can listen to music but you can't use the microphone if you connect it to windows 10, so unfortunately I couldn't use it for gaming on my PC. Otherwise it is a crazy headphone. I would say the noise cancellation is a little better than airpod pro's. Probably about 10%, but this thing is huge.

So far so good
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to use, comfortable, sound is excellent, noise cancelling seems great. Only caveat is I have just started use, so I can't evaluate long term durability and use while traveling.

GREAT!! Wonderful noise cancellation.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After using this product for couple months now i am absolutely IN LOVE with my purchase not to mention the great customer service you get from the Best Buy employee who made my experience easy when i had to come in for an exchange. I love the hands free fetures this headset has, it is great for the gym, Cancels out so much background noise and I love how personize you can make these headphones to your prefured audio experience. It had Alexa built in if you use alexa a lot this would be another great devise to add. Only issue i have with it is that the pairing experience is quite hard to connect to whenever i want to switch to use on another device but maybe thats just me, and also how when i run or move my head too fast it likes to slide off my head but other than those minor details its a great pair of headphones.

Quality at a price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really good sound quality. Clear and crisp sound. The best part is the noise canceling. Noise-canceling stops automatically if someone nearby or you start talking. However, one time I was listening to music, and suddenly there was no sound for no apparent reason even though the headset was connected and the music was running on YouTube music. When I disconnected the Bluetooth, I could hear the music playing on my laptop. So I had to restart the headphones and reconnect to the Bluetooth to get it to work again. This only happened once though. Comes with different sets of connectors. Can be used on long flights for noise canceling or watching movies.

Probably the best noise ANC headphones
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In my opinion, these are the best wireless noise canceling headphones you can buy. They have very good range, a bit of a bass boost, but nothing too muddy. And the noise cancellation is superb.

Great sounding headphone set.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good quality head set at an even better price. Using these as a replacement for the headset the dog ate. Great sound quality. The only downside so far is the limited talk time of about 3 hours, but these were never meant to be a headset to begin with. Great for going on a walk or just listening to Pandora though.

Headphones Creak/pop, but are otherwise great
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound quality and noise cancelling are great, as advertised. I can’t really add to what’s already been said in the reviews for this or the previous model. My only complaint is the large amount of mechanical noise (creaking and popping) I’m hearing as the the headphones flex or adjust to head movements. They sound extra loud because everything else is so quiet. It’s probably made worse by the focus/study playlists I’m using for work from home.
