    Like the headphones, they are super comfortable but just not as easy to have on for long periods due to overheating my head but great quality

    These are lightweight, good quality sound headphones, but the lack of volume buttons and next track/previous track buttons is a big drawback. Would not have purchased had I realized newer model removed features of older model I had.

    Very good headphones with lots of software but the software and the amount collected information is absolutely ridiculous. You need a lawyer to explain what you're agreeing to. Honestly I have no idea why these are so complicated. No ps4 or 5 support even though they are superior to the sets they make for the systems. Pretty much a let down other than the battery life and sound quality after finally getting them set up. If you are getting them just for your phone and dont care about signing your life away these are for you.

      Hi DKII. while we are glad that you like the sound quality and battery life, we are sorry if you find these headphones complicated to use. This is definitely not the experience we wanted you to have with our products. We would love to help you and turn this into a better experience.

      You can connect these headphones to your television so you can get the audio from your PlayStation and other gaming consoles. PlayStation headphones are best to be paired with PS4/PS5 consoles.

    Best Noise-Cancelling and Sound Quality combination on the market! You usually either get good noise-cancelling, or good sound quality, but this one has an excellent combination of both. It's expensive, so I recommend getting it on sale like I did. Either way, an excellent pair of headphones.

    So far, really Boss headphones. If you have any doubt about the quality of the noise cancellation technology, just drop it. It will block just about everything out. Blaring TVs, voices, engine rumbles, etc. Now, I'm just wondering if I need the Geek Squad on these. Bluetooth technology still isn't perfect and who knows if it'll crap out in two years./

    The headphones are really good at noise canceling and the sound is solid. The only issues I have with them is sometimes the headphones randomly disconnect for about 1 second. It has improved though with software updates through the app though. Comfort wise I would say it is pretty average, I do not usually like to wear them for hours on end like other headsets. That might be because i'm not used to the weight yet as I usually have lighter headphones on.
