Best headphones I’ve owned
||Posted .

Especially the battery life is far better than I’ve ever expected. The distance from your phone and have a clear connection is amazing too.

Great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Noise cancellation is great, audio adjustments are just perfect. pads are somewhat okay, wish it was a bit more comfy but i hardly use these only when I truly have enough time for some time to myself. It's worth the price for me :)

The hype is somewhat right.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound is great. It is. Im not a radiohead to speak on highs and lows. All I know is when I put on my cans, I want it to sound clear and thump where it suppose to thump. Saying that, I feel these squeeze just a bit too much for me on the head. Also, singing along to the song would sometimes cause the music to stop. I ended up taking them back and getting the Bose 700s.

Go-To Heaphondes
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I LOVE these headphones. The sound quality, the noise-canceling feature, the controls, etc are all very good. The only reason it is not a 5-star is that the microphone is VERY bad. When I am on the phone with someone or in a virtual meeting, no one can ever hear me and when they do, the sound it very muffled.

Amazing but made me feel sick
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Ridiculously comfy. The noise-canceling is out of this world. I'd never tried ANC and these things are bonkers. The ANC actually was actually nauseating for me though, just a heads up for anyone else new to ANC out there

You can become an Introvert
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound and build quality is great. Great for working from home. However, entertainment use is tricky. It’s scary how much of an introvert you can become with these on. The app needs some revamping to make it easy to use.
