Excellent
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent headphones that block out the noise. Very comfortable, but the "pressure" (from the ANC feature) can be a bit much if you're not used to it. I love that they are compact.

Excellent noise canceling and other features.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Comfortable and effective. The chat and ambient features surpass my older Bose Quiet Comfort headphones and the sound is excellent. The touch is cool, but mechanical volume control would be better. Good value when on sale.

Better than AirPod Pros
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are some excellent headphones. I have had apples AirPod pros for 2 years and I loved them but they always lacked in the sound quality department but as soon as I put these on everything changed. These are the best sounding headphones I have ever had. From the smooth highs and the perfect base these are a great buy for those who just want amazing sound quality with all the bells and whistles that all these earbuds have and The noise cancellation is a lot better than I thought it would be.

Great sound and noise canceling
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These sound amazing and the noise canceling works very well. They also have the ability for transparent sound so you can hear your surroundings. My biggest complaint are the touch controls on the side of the ear cup. I constantly brush up against it causing the volume to change and/or pause. I would much rather have physical buttons, this feels more like a gimmick.

Better sound than Bose!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are so good. I bought them for my daughter and tbh am a little jealous. I have a pair of Bose QC headphones but the sound quality on these are definitely better than the Bose headphones. The case is so sturdy too which makes them great to travel or just bringing around in a backpack. Got a great deal on them and am really happy with them.
