Great
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good comfort but gets a little warm. Used these on an airplane and noise canceling is great. Sound quality is okay but better after changing some settings in the app you need to install.

Mid at best.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Eh, these were okay. Did not wow me, but are very comfortable. The pressure optimization gave me headaches for the first 2 weeks. I was going to return these, but didn’t realize there was a 14 day return policy. I guess I’m stuck reselling them as I’d prefer a more crisp sound and deeper bass.

My mistake.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sorry I really can’t give you an honest review. My fault. I’m taking a trip soon and decided I had vastly overbought for my flying portion of the trip and I just couldn’t justify the expense. They are highly rated and the salesperson was great. Never even used but tried display in store.
