The best wireless noise canceling headphones today
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound for a noise canceling headphone. I use it both wired and wireless and the sound is great. The bass is a little boosted, but it is pretty clean. I have heard negatives about the controls, but I had a pair of XM2s and I feel this are just a tad better. I got these at the $248 sales price and that made the value excellent.

Great noise canceling and battery life
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones have been great, the battery life can last me all week before having to charge them. The noise canceling is amazing, and the ambient mode is great as sometimes I'd like to be able to hear my surroundings when listening to my music. I'd recommend these to anybody and think it was a worth while purchase.

Great so far
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm by no means an audiophile, but I think they sound as good if not better than Bose QuietComfort IIs. The deciding factor, though was the battery life. They advertise 30 hours, and I've found it to be a bit conservative. At medium volume I'm able to get 32-35 hours per charge. The call quality is also very good. I work in some noisy areas and according to the folks I'm talking to the audio quality is quite good. Better than my plantronics voyager. These are pretty expensive, but if the battery life holds up it'll be worth every penny

XM4 review
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is an excellent investment, it lasts long, has amazing sound quality, and is simply comfortable to wear, but they do start weighing on you after you have worn them for a while, like for 3-4 hours straight.

I spent years wanting this, DONT be like me
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I spent a few years wanting these headphones. I couldnt convince myself to spend the money but Im glad I finally did. I really enjoy a good headset to enjoy my music. I travel and this is such a well rounded product . The only concern I have is that they work SO well that youll find yourself yelling to people on the phone bc you cant hear your own voice. The noise cancellation is easily the best Ive seen and the battery seems to last forever. Great product, highly recommended!

The best headphones ever.
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are far and away the best over-the-ear headphones I've ever owned. They're so light and comfortable that it's easy to forget you have them on. And the noise cancelling is incredible. Definitely worth the $200 I paid for them. The sound quality is also amazing. The full audio range is clear, and the bass is thumping. Not to mention, the connectivity is great, and the app is intuitive. I simply love everything about these headphones.

Very happy with purchase.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been very happy with the purchase of these headphones. I did a bunch of research before buying anything. Everytime iput my search criteria in these were the first ones to be displayed. I use them everyday listening to music while I work. I work in a cubicle area and it gets loud at times. They are great was a little more then I wanted to spend but I am very happy I spent the extra money. The best over the ear headphones I have ever used . Linking them to my cell phone was easy, the included case and accessories are a great bonus.

Sturdy, Well Made, Exceptional Sound Quality.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.- The noise cancelling and customization is excellent and was the reason I tried these headphones in the first place. -battery life is really good and USB-C charging makes it much quicker to get back to 100% - the experimental talk feature works very well, but takes a while to activate. (about 2 words minimum before it beeps then turns on the mode) - sound quality is amazing and is fully customizable within the app. only CON I see in this is needing to register and install an app to use the noise cancelling features. but once installed and registered its just another app you never notice on your phone. the texture on the sides of the headphones are soft and are easy to scratch and I haven't figured out how to use the controls on the side of the headphone yet. overall, would recommend if you want some solid headphones you know will last.

Went from the 2 to the 4
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Took the jump from the 2 (had them for years finally starting to wear out) to the 4. They are of a better sound quality, deeper bass for sure. The 2's were plenty fine and clear, these are maybe a smidge clearer? Outside of the bass and a little bit in the highs not a huge sound upgrade so if your 2's or 3's are still cranking I'm not sure its worth it to jump up. That being said, the features, noise cancelling, some of the talking features, etc they are much better than on the 2s. Overall I have found these to be the best NC Wireless headphones on the market.
