amazing ANC
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The audio isn’t too loud, but the ANC is amazing. I wear them at the gym everyday. One issue is they do slip off when laying down but it’s not the end of the world.

Great headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best headphone purchase I ever made The noice cancelation isn't perfect, but it's close. The bass is the smoothest I've ever heard, and I was not very picky, but I will never expect anything but the quality I get from these! Would have spent 500 easily

Look at my comment before buying
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The noise cancellation is exceptional better than the Bose NC700. I have an iPhone and the pair to two devices at once works so much better than the NC700 as well. Now for call quality they are good but the NC700 does have a leg up on these. However they are still great.
I would recommend this to a friendAmazing sound, too bad for calls.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very Comfortable with Amazing sound better then Bose , too good for music lovers. During calls person on other side keep getting echo, mics are not configured correctly, too bad for calls and meeting with this price point.
