    As someone who used to produce music as a sound engineer these headphones are one of the best for the price point. Comfortable and easy to hook up for bluetooth

    These headphones are comfortable and have good sound quality but they have this quirk where whenever I make any noise at all, even cough, the sound pauses on my phone, and it's terrible aggravating. You literally can't sing along to a song without the sound pausing. Who thought that up? It's terrible. Also, though these connect to my phone, these very expensive headphones have been unable to pair with any computer I've brought them near, brand new laptops, and that also sucks.
