Good sound and ease of use.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the ability to adjust the sound quality to your taste. The soundstage is excellent and the bass response is quite good. These headphones sound as good as other brands that cost much more.

These are nice
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The noise canellation is amazing, and the talk to disbale ANC is pretty neat, as long as you are not one of those that sing along. My only issue with these is that when I connect them to my TV, there is a static noise at times, other than that I can conncet to 2 devices at the same time and that works pretty well.

- Pros mentioned:Battery life, Sound quality
Great performance with poor quality.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My first impressions of the headphones were positive, based on also owning the earlier competitors, the included accessories were on par with what others offer. The sound quality and noise-canceling is excellent while the battery life outperformed my expectations. The only improvement would be to have more seamless switching when connected to two devices. The performance of the headphones made these my go-to headphones for work and leisure for the last year and a half. Until recently where the right ear cup swivel joint broke and the retaining clip sprung loose. This is a common problem search to find numerous threads. Contacted support only to be told physical or cosmetic damage is not covered by the warranty. The part that failed is under the headband with less than 1mm of access. Very unusual for many people to see common damage in difficult-to-reach areas all on the same ear cup. The manufacturer does not stand behind their product while the competitor headphones I own are 4 years old and still perform great with no issues.
