Best headset I've purchased yet!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best headset I've purchased yet. It's a bit more expensive than other brands...however, I purchased the most expensive headset at GameStop and I had to return it 3x! The earpiece kept breaking! So frustrating, this is a really nice noise cancelling headset and I couldn't be happier.

Great noise cancellation and customer service!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I thought the headphones got lost in the mail so I contacted customer service and they were absolutely amazing. The headphones themselves work like a charm, I have never had noise cancelling headphones before and I do not think I will ever go back to earbuds!! They are amazing!!!

Silence is golden.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the sound cancelling! Totally masks noisy appliances and random household noise. I selected this product on the advice of a Geek Squad guy at the Dublin store. Trustworthy advice. Thanks Man! I chose sound quality over heavy bass sound quality of a similar model.

Excellent sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve had just about every major brand of headphones over the past 20 years. These are by far the best sounding headphones I’ve ever owned. Plus the tap controls on the outside of the right ear make it so easy to pause and move forward or backwards through your playlist hands free!

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the best sounding wireless (some wired headphones do sound better) but the advantage of connecting to two different devices and seamlessly switching from one to the other it’s great. Quality seems to be very high as well. Also some of the best noise canceling I’ve had.

Good
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Although I enjoy the headphones quite a bit, there are some underlying issues. Connectivity is one of these issues. There’s a feature on the headphones where after a certain amount of time, the headphones turn off. Whenever I turn them back on, they work fine for a bit before suddenly disconnecting. This continues to happen until I either forget the headphones or I reset my phone.

So worth it
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Haven't owned over-ear headphones in years but I'm getting tired of earbuds. Switched from Galaxy Buds Pro 2 to these and I don't regret it. They're not the most intuitive for touch control but once you figure it out it's very simple. Love the volume control option. I would recommend these for sure.
