Expensive but worth it
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are comfortable, sound great, have good noise cancelling, and generally do everything I want. The one downside is you can't charge and listen wirelessly at the same time. But the recharge speed is fast and battery lasts long, so that isn't really a problem. You can also plug it into a 3.5mm audio jack, which the wire is thankfully included, but noise cancelling won't be available if you use it that way.

Amazing Overall
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best wireless, noise cancelling headphones out there imo. These are a big step up from the XM2s which I owned previously The sound quality is great as you would expect. Comfortable and minimal. The only nitpicks I have are with a couple of features, *speak to chat* & *pause when headphones are taken off*. The ladder is nice when it works, which is most times, but not all. Speak to chat however has become annoying. Its very sensitive to noise, not just your voice. Also it seems to activate even when switched off in settings.

You may not believe this, but, I assure you that I can't even hear loud thunderstorms with these on. I'm an audio production professional & know great sounding headphones when I hear them.

One of my best tech purchases of 2020
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I hate wearing earplugs or headphones that fit on my ears. I also hate having them on so that I can't hear what's going on in my surroundings. However, I saw these on sale and they fit over the ear which was more comfortable. Not to mention the noise cancelling and the ability to still hear sounds around me in a quick second without having to take them off. The sound quality is second to none. My daughter has BOSE and these are way better. They have been staying charged for what seems like forever. They are a must-have to

Comfy sound boosting headphones
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Comfortable to wear and noise cancelling works exceptionally. These are my favorite headphones I've ever purchased to date. The only negative i have is that they slip off head while working out in different positions other than sitting/standing up straight. Other than that, no complaints!

Nice and Comfortable
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones exceeded my expectations. They are very light and comfortable to wear for those long airline flights or just watching movies at home. I was surprised to find that I can connect them to my TV for the best surround sound experience when watching movies. The noise cancelling works really well, I often times do not hear people talking to me when I have them on. The case if very compact and sturdy.

Best noise cancelling and bass
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are awesome! I had the previous version for a few years until they broke, so when I got these I was hoping they would live up to the XM3s. And they do! The noise cancelling is elite and blocks out almost all ambient noise. The sound is clear and the bass is the best sounding I've heard in headphones. The quality of the construction is great and they're comfortable to wear for hours.

bought for college daughter
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My daughter said she was going to go deaf trying to tune out students with her earbuds. She likes to study in the campus center and that is where it is loudest. She said she had the music all the way up and still couldn't hear. She is so Happy with her headphones now. She wears them around her neck all the time I guess its now part of her aesthetic. I like it better because when I call her I can actually hear what she is saying. I couldn't hear the background noise like I had in the past. I love the part when I go to speak to her when she is wearing her headphones because the moment she starts talking the music stops. Now I know for sure she is listening! Definitely a win for me for anyone who has been ignored by a game playing child. The battery life is nice as well and she normally charges when she sleeps for the next day but they don't need to be. If she forgets they are still good for the next day. She loves the sound and music is her life so definitely worth the money to see her happy.
