A Blast to the Past
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Would’ve kept if they were cheaper!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I liked these a lot, but definently overpriced. (I own expensive stuff I don’t mind spending money on quality). They feel easily breakable and not super comfortable on the ears. Sound quality pretty good in to comparison to Bose and beats. Noise cancellation is really awesome although I notice a high pitch sound that kind of makes the cancellation not as satisfactory.

Great ANC headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphones sound great to me, but the ANC is where they really shine. They outperform my old Beats Studio 3’s in ANC performance. It’s also nice being able to up load EQ settings into the headphone.

Great sound
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound quality very good overall. When noise cancellation is on things like wind or ac can cause weird scratching noise, but otherwise noise cancellation is very good and the auto adjustments based on situation are very cool.

Love them
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great quality headphones. Very durable. They have fallen from high places due to my work environment. I work in construction, zero issue with the headphones. Truly love them. Just wish I could every once in awhile replace the padding or somehow clean them a little better since I do sweat a lot while I'm working.
