Money Well Spent

Terrific sound with noise cancellation, very comfortable, perfect for music and phone calls. Blows Blue Parrot away. I like them so much I gave my Blue Parrot headset away. Money Well Spent if looking for an excellent set of wireless headphones.

Best noise-canceling headphones...
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There are a lot of reviews out there on these headphones, so I won't go through everything. Bottom line - if you want the best noise canceling at a reasonable price, get these. They go on-sale a lot, so wait if you can. Other than that, it does a lot of things average to above-average, but not necessarily great. Audio is fine, but there are better sounding headphones out there. The app works pretty well and gives you a great deal of customization. Speak-to-chat is a nice feature, but one I think I will rarely use (triggers to easily). The ambient sound control is a good mode, but not as good as a true transparency mode. Adaptive sound control is a nice feature, but I just tend to disable it. The build quality is all plastic, but does not feel cheap. You can get better build quality in other headphones for a premium. The call quality is just ok. It is a step above the XM3's, but still well below a number of other headphones. So, as I said at the beginning, if you want industry-leading noise canceling and a lot of other features done well (but not the best), you should get these. For most people, these headphones will do all they need, and more, so I do recommend them.

Comfortable
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very comfortable over my ears. Sound is clear. Does a better job blocking out sound than other earphones I've had. I have told many friends about these. I found the price worth it.

I loved those and after using these they are definitely a step up. I love that I no longer need an audio cable most of all. They are very comfortable and do a superior job of noise canceling. These are the best on the market. There are plenty of expert reviews out there and all of them are spot on. This is a superior product.

Great headphones with great noise cancellation!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are easily the best headphones I've ever purchased. It took me awhile to finally decide to lay down the money for them since they are a little pricy, but totally worth it! I really struggle when it comes to finding the right headphones. Earbuds will NOT stay in my ear, no matter what make, model or kind they are...so that leaves me with over-the-ear headphones. I have gen 1 AirPods but I'm constantly adjusting them to make sure they don't fall out...which they still do on occasion and it's really frustrating. I also fly a lot, and trying to listen to music or watch movies while on the plane is always a struggle because I end up holding the Pods into my ear so I can actually hear over the noise. These bad boys take all of that away. The noise cancellation feature is exactly what I was looking for and I love being able to just put my palm to the side to hear what someone is saying to me. I debated between these and the AirPods Max but these won out because of price, they aren't as heavy on my head and they come with a carrying case. Definitely worth the money! Only con, they do make my ears sweat after awhile, but not bad enough to knock them for it.
