Worth It
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I previously had the 3rd model and decided to buy this one to replace my temporarily JBL Project Rock headphones. It's literally almost the same as the 3rd version with some adjustments made to it. Such adjustment would be the headphone would pause when you start to talk instead of putting your hands over the earcups. It'll also turn off when not in use for a certain amount of time. I would probably hold off buying the lateat version, if you're tight on money.

Amazing on long flights!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used these headphones on my 15 hour flight to Johannesburg and they are amazing. You turn on noise cancellation and you can still kind of hear the sound of the plane. But when you put on some music and turn up the volume, you can't even hear the plane. I'm not even over exaggerating. The quality is decent. Nice plastics are used. It is a little pricey but depending on who you are, totally worth it.
