Best headphones I’ve ever had !
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It took a little while to get used to the feel on my ears. Other that that these headphones are great! Using it to speak on the phone isn’t all that great but slightly better than the XM4model. Lastly they are a bit pricey...

King of ANC
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent headphones, coming from the WF-1000xm3 wireless headphones these are king of ANC. My only complaint with these headphones is that if you lay down and still for too long they automatically turn themselves off.
