- Pros mentioned:Bass
Good but not Great
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good but not great. The bass is hands down really good. The mids I can’t seem to get down to my taste but highs are good. Overall they do provide a good sound experience. The app is ok because of the equalizer but aside from that it sucks. The dual device connection is crap. They sometimes connect without any problems but 8 out of 10 times it doesn’t connect. Sometimes it says the headset connects to my iPhone but the app will say it’s not. I have to delete all connections and start all over. Overall on sale they’re worth the buy. Full retail...wouldn’t recommend.

Currently, these are the best I've used
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've tried various models/brands of noise cancelling headphones, and these are the best overall. The NC works really well, the audio is really good, including bass delivery without crushing the mids. I think these are a bit better than the v3 in sound, and maybe a little in NC, but the differences are not huge. These seem to have less of a plastic "creak" when handling than the v3.

BEST HEADPHONES
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the best headphones I have everrrrr owned. Although I kind of regret buying the headphones in black and I wished I should've bought them in silver. Anyways it doesn't matter the quality and sound of these headphones are amazing! I also enjoyed the noise-canceling option, I can finally stop hearing my upstairs neighbors from doing a ton of noise.
