Incredible Sound and Battery Life
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound quality is crisp, clear, and perfectly balanced. The bass has a pleasant, deep thump without being overpowering or muddy, and the vocals come through crystal clear. Whether I'm listening to podcasts, rock, or classical music, everything sounds rich and enjoyable.

Awesome audio & battery for music & travel
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound is incredible! They're also super comfortable and the battery lasts a really long time. Amazing headset for travel. The -1 star comes from the fact that the mic only works via bluetooth, not the 3.5mm audio jack. So I can't use it for Xbox/PS gaming (requires wired connection to controller).

A travel must have!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are my first pair of noise-cancelling headphones. I didn't think that was really a thing until I was drying a load of laundry AND cooking with the fan on and didn't hear either. These are exactly what I need and wanted and more. I've never known that headphones could pair to multiple things at once and you could switch between devices seamlessly. The battery lasts a good amount of time and charging is simple. I will never travel without these.

I love these headphonesss
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Genuinely my favorite thing I own. The sound quality is the greatest I’ve heard to date and as a audiophile I don’t have any complaints. Battery life is also insane and I’ve never had connection issues. Now the price is steep but my first pair lasted me 2 years of daily use with no issues until one of the ear swivels broke. Even then the audio still sounded as good as the first day I got them. I recommend these headphones to all of my friends, so if you do have the money to purchase them I say go for it. I don’t think you’ll regret it.

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.I have had Bose and Beats headphones, these are by far my favorite. These are the most comfortable and best sounding headphones I have tried. The touch controls are really interesting, the only major complaint is that some features can be counterintuitive.
