    Very comfortable. I bought my girlfriend a pair of Klipsch on-ear headphones a few years ago that she used mostly for flights. Her ears would get sore, so I decided to give my brother the Klipsch and buy her a set of these. She loves them. They sound a bit better and have noise-cancelling.

    These are the best headphones I have ever used. I have an old version of Sony noise-cancelling headphones and was very please with their performance. But THESE are way better. The size, the quality, the way they hug your ears (you tend to forget you are wearing them) is awesome. I truly recommend them. The sound quality is beyond perfect.

    for what you’re getting, this is in line with the more premium wireless headphones however I cannot justify the msrp. I would say wait for this pair to go on sale if you really want it. There are more cheaper options but this is one of the best wireless headphones you can get on the market.

    I LOVE these headphones. I use them for just about everything. The noice canceling is by FAR the best i have had. I can go walking next to traffic and not hear a single noice. I'vebeen on planes and couldn't even hear the planes taking off. If you need a pair of headphones to block out your kids or your nagging wife, these are for you. Block out the world abs just be with your intrusive thoughts with these headphones. I actively show people these headphones and have talked people to bordem about them. I try and get everyone I show them to to but a pair.

    These headphones are the best on the market right now in terms of noise cancellation and value. I compared these to the Bose 700s and for me, these win all day, every day. They are lightweight, hold a charge for forever it seems, and have a fully functional app so you can fine tune your settings. Awesome headphones, you won't regret it!
