    If you are going to spend the money on headphones, these are worth the money. There is no competition, they are better than Beats & Bose easily. Beats are extremely uncomfortable, these fit over the ear really well and can be worn all day.

    Bought these for an international trip, and they are amazing. While there is some noise leak, it's not the worst. I highly recommend them for planes and trains. The bass is great and easy to pair with your phone or laptop.

    This headset was what I thought I wanted to replace my old Sony that was 15 years old. It seemed uncomfortable for long use. It was too heavy and too pricy. I saw so many new choices I had to try.
