Good buy
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Every time I take them off I'm shocked at how loud it is without them. The ANC is actually amazing. I don't think I could survive a flight without them. I use them daily and have no complaints

Good Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When you first get them, they take 3 hours to charge. It is nice that there is a voice that says whether they are on or off if you don't want to look at the code of lights blinking at you. They are definitely grey. Silver to me implies some level of metallic color. They are just a matte grey. I got these cancel out bass music and domestic disputes from my obnoxious neighbors. They do a really great job doing that. There is a point at which they no longer cancel out the bass noise by merely being on without any additional audio being piped in. The case they come in is nice and hardy. Bluetooth pairing them with my phone was super easy. I would definitely buy these again. Would that they just came in more interesting colors than black and grey.

Great headphones for TV.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use these for TV viewing only. I cannot speak as too music sound quality. I will say that comfort is excellent. Build quality is excellent. Noise canceling is the best I have experienced in headphones over the past 10 years. TV pairing with LG OLED is instant about 90% of the time.

Best on the Market
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You will not find better noise canceling headphones on the market. They really get rid of all ambient noise and the battery means you can wear it all day without having to worry about recharging it. And the bluetooth connection is incredibly reliable. There really is no reason not to get it.

Excellent sound all around
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are absolutely stunning in just about every aspect. The case is of very high quality and has a convenient mesh pocket on the outside. The headphones fold very nicely into the case. One small gripe is the two small cords (3.5mm and charger that's very very short) that come in the case tend to want to go out of their little section once you take them out. But they do fit in well. The build quality of the headphones is fantastic and they look beautiful. I'm very impressed with all it's features. The app that comes with it is easy to use and allows further customization. The noise cancelling is the best I've ever experienced and can be turned all the way up or down with the app. The sound quality is the best part of these and is truly very good. They perform well with any type of sound and I use these as opposed to my pixelbuds when I want a much more immersive sound experience. I highly recommend these noise cancelling Bluetooth headphones.

Best over hear headphones out there.

I even went into Best Buy and tried them on. The sound and comfort of these were slightly better than the competition, and were cheaper, especially compared to the apple maxs. The noise canceling is amazing too
