Great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headphones better than beats hands down. I bought a pair of beats studio and didn’t like the fit and sound was poor. For the price you would think the sound would be better. I exchanged them for these and wow they are awesome. The sound is great and super comfy. It took me a sec to get use to the no buttons on the headphones but I do like that you can turn them off manually vs beats that to turn it off you have to close them. So far they are running smooth and comfy. Def recommend.

Traveling companion
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use this for travel, mainly on airplanes. Excellent sound quality, maybe a little bass heavy depending on your preferences, but you can correct for that. Good noise cancellation, and the transparency and passive modes are good features. I like the combination of physical buttons and the touch sensitive controls for forward/back, pause/play, and volume. Not as comfortable on the top of my head as I remember my Bose QCs were, foam could be softer or deeper.

Excellent wireless, noise cancelling headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very comfortable for over the ear headphones. The noise reduction is very good and can be cancelled conveniently when you need to pay attention to something else. The tonal quality is very natural, especially for the price. The bluetooth connection is solid, and adapts to multiple devices.

Good quality headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headphones with amazing audio quality. I choose those because they are light and foldable, plus they have wire and adapters for the airplane entertainment. The noise cancelling is great, even with screaming baby right behind my seat, I was able to relax and enjoy my music on the flight.

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.

Great sound. Great Features. Great Price
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I haven’t traveled at all since buying these, but I have had the experience of using them at home while my wife and I were both on phone calls. The noise canceling is as good as my old Bose headphones (which my wife uses now), and the sound is spectacular, both on calls and for listening to music or watching streaming movies. They are quite comfortable and can be worn for hours without issues. I look forward to traveling again when I can really get the best out of these headphones.

Rocking with comfort.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I went on a search for headphones with good sound quality, solid active noise canceling at a price point that made sense. These fit the bills and are overall comfortable while wearing my prescription glasses all day.

||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Comfortable and I cannot hear my family with the noise canceling feature even when the volume isn't that high up. The battery life is excellent as well. When the headphones die, it takes around 5-10 minutes for it to charge all the way up and it lasts a long time.

Nice noise cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Noise canceling is the best!!! Any design or color is fine. Unlike AirPods, it does not hurt your ears even if you use it for a long time. Also, the price is reasonable, I think. The battery lasts longer than expected. It can connect to devices and uses MacBooks and iPhones with it. Switching to Bluetooth between devices works better than expected.

Would buy again in a heart beat.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easily the best pair of headphones I have ever owned. I tried multiple top tier brands and this was by far the most comfortable over the ear. The sound quality is clear, which I found was not the case in some of the other brands. The noise canceling is way above my expectations, it cuts out everything with the exception of really loud noises close to you. There are alot of features that i could go on about. They are pricey but definitely worth the cost if the cost alone is not the deciding factor.

Great pair of headphones
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have one of sonys first Generation over the ear headphones and hate them. They are heavy ugly and pinch my head. I could tell right away when I picked these up for the first time they would not be any of the things I hated about my last pair. They are light, good looking and don't hurt to wear for hours. Noise canceling is best ive ever had and the sound quality is great. I usually dont think anything that costs this much is worth the money but I didnt regret spending a cent on these love em

Worth Every Penny
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.What's there to say that hasn't already been said, its the build, its the sound quality, its the look, the battery life, etc. These are pretty much the go-to as far as Over-the-Ear headphones are concerned and for good reason. They recently released the XM5s which apparently have slightly better noise-cancelling and quality but honestly for the price(especially during a sale) you can't go wrong with these!

Chuffed to bits
