LOVE these headphones!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are awesome! The noise-cancelling is no joke...10/10 recommend! Recommend toggling with the adaptive settings as well to get the sound how you like it.

Fit
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to connect, great sound and controls only problem for me is how easily they fall off. Not super snug, I wouldn’t recommend for an active person, great for watching a movie.

great quality sound. Look at xm3 also
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound and features especially with the price drop. The only thing is its missing the aptx codecs from the xm3s. The earcup controls are very handy and the pause when you take off the cups are something that you never knew you liked so much unless you already had airpods.

Amazing sound, connectivity issues with iPhone
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is one the best sounding pair of headphones I've ever owned. All that being said, if you have an iPhone, let alone a few Apple products that you want to use these for, bear in mind that the toggling from one device to the other comes with a painstakingly annoyance. I am constantly having to turn my bluetooth settings on and off and re-pairing every time I am wanting to use my iPad instead of my iPhone for listening. This is ridiculous with a device of this price point. I can't recommend these for Apple users.
