No complaints
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really love these headphones, although it's a pretty steep price, I think that for the sound quality and how good the noise canceling is, it's worth it. It would last me about a week before I need to recharge it.

Hands down my favorite pair of headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve been pleased in every single way by the performance of this headphones, I’ve had both the M1 and M2 versions in the past and I got to say this one is just at good or even better in every quality as those. I also some beats solo and studio headphones and these are far superior compared to beats. This thing has one of the best Active noise canceling in any headphones out there. Even though they are expensive they go on sale quite often and there are plenty of good opportunities to buy them in a good deal. One thing I did find that has gone down compared to the previous models is the unboxing experience, and how it feels. The older model felt premium, the cups had some texture and look unique. The complete smooth plastic feel is something I don’t like too much. That aside this is still a great buy and would recommend anyone looking amazing noise canceling headphones.

Great over-ear headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I enjoy listening to music with these but it's true that after a while your head starts to hurt a little because of the band and the ear cushions get kind of hot but overall these are great headphones with active noise cancelling literally you can't hear anything outside and I love it when going on the bus.

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.
