    Firmer grip than the XM3s and a but different finish on the overall product. If you had the 3s youll love the 4s BUT they are minor upgrades,. The 3s are still JUSTAS GOOD!

    I have a mixed review here when plugged in this is a great headset, when I use the Bluetooth function I am not anywhere near as impressed. If you are someone who mostly uses this plugged into the computer you will be very happy with the product.

    It’s good for listening music but disappointed in call quality. I got complaints that in office call please speak loudly, your voice is not coming properly. I did not want to return but I returned. I got Bose 700 for active noise canceling the best among all noise canceling headphones.

    Awesome overall but this one that I got for some reason was making a very annoying noise when in noise cancelling mode and it developed to the normal mode too. It gave me headaches so I returned it for a new one and that problem is long gone and I'm really happy with it.

    It is a great pair of headphones, but the only reason I had to return them is they’re not water proof/resistant and not ip certified. The mane reason I got them is for gym use.
