Great and Durable Headphones
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These have been great headphones. They've connected and worked flawlessly every time I've used them for the last 2+ years. They sound amazing, and they're definitely more comfortable to wear than my Bang & Olefsen Beoplay H9i headphones.

Good value
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to use, sound great. I wear them when working, which is noise with a vacuum and pressure washer. The ANC is good. I can complain for a legacy item. Only thing I don’t love is the case.

Amazing
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the most comfortable headphones I’ve worn. The noise cancellation is perfect for drowning all sound. I love wearing them to listen to instrumental music while I work, and after having them on for several hours I could still say I barely feel them on.

Great set of active 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 extended use. Larger than average sized head and felt great during 11 hour flight. Noise cancellation works well and sound quality is excellent. Sony’s version of Apple’s transparency mode doesn’t work quite as well, but at nearly half the cost I see no reason to splurge for the AirPod Max headphones over these.
