Perfect Feature Set
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my first major headphone purchase in a while, and I do not regret it. I bought these to replace my Beats Studios from 2011 after they finally kicked the bucket and everything is a huge upgrade. The ANC, features in the app, auto pause, two devices at once, ambient sound when talking to anyone. I could go on an on but they aree perfect for my needs as a software developer working from home. I would recommend these to anyone as these are the best headphones I have ever owned.

Good headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Headphones sounds great after using the in-app equalizer, though the reliance on the app is a negative for me. Also, the touch buttons are trash. Though this is made up for by the best in class noise cancellation.

Great pair of ANC headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I got Apple AirPod Max last Xmas, but wanted to give these a try at $100 off and wasn’t disappointed. Much lighter/confortable to wear and like the ability to tailor the EQ to my preference. My only to knocks are connecting to 2 devices is a bit clunky (had issues of it constantly connecting/disconnecting to 2nd device while listening to my primary device which was annoying) and the APM seem to me have a better transparency/ambient mode.

Highly Recommended
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very nice headphones. I ended up buying 2 pair with 1 a gift. The headphones sound very balanced, musical and are very versatile making it easy to listen to various sources. The noise cancelling works well as does the microphone. The songs encoded with the 360 Reality Audio add another dimension to listening. The programmability of these headphones is unbelievable and quite useful. These headphones deserve a front seat with my other equipment and deliver on all fronts.
