Better than Bose
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Better than Bose noise canceling and sound quality. Less comfortable than Bose. Gimmicky features. Looks cheap. But overall a satisfying experience.

Emit a High Pitched Squeaking After a Year
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Broke slightly after a year. Now emit a high pitched squeaking noise. My older Bose QC35 that I bought in 2017 are still working... might have just been bad luck but I doubt I'll ever try another pair. I did enjoy them before they quit working and the hand gestures on the side as well as the bass made it stand out.
