Worth it!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these over the new ones. If you prefer on the sound quality side such as bass etc this is it. But if you are looking for noise cancellation might need to reconsider it. I would compare the sound system and noise cancellation as the AirPods Pro gen 2. Battery life is amazing, If you was to ask me, these would last me a good 2 weeks. Give it a try if you don’t like it you can always return it with the 7-30 days policy.

Excellent sound all around
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are absolutely stunning in just about every aspect. The case is of very high quality and has a convenient mesh pocket on the outside. The headphones fold very nicely into the case. One small gripe is the two small cords (3.5mm and charger that's very very short) that come in the case tend to want to go out of their little section once you take them out. But they do fit in well. The build quality of the headphones is fantastic and they look beautiful. I'm very impressed with all it's features. The app that comes with it is easy to use and allows further customization. The noise cancelling is the best I've ever experienced and can be turned all the way up or down with the app. The sound quality is the best part of these and is truly very good. They perform well with any type of sound and I use these as opposed to my pixelbuds when I want a much more immersive sound experience. I highly recommend these noise cancelling Bluetooth headphones.

Great headphones for TV.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use these for TV viewing only. I cannot speak as too music sound quality. I will say that comfort is excellent. Build quality is excellent. Noise canceling is the best I have experienced in headphones over the past 10 years. TV pairing with LG OLED is instant about 90% of the time.

Best on the Market
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You will not find better noise canceling headphones on the market. They really get rid of all ambient noise and the battery means you can wear it all day without having to worry about recharging it. And the bluetooth connection is incredibly reliable. There really is no reason not to get it.

Not Enough Volume for Home Theater
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Headphones worked OK, were easy to connect to home theater by bluetooth and were comfortable to wear. I bought these to use with my home theater to be able to watch movies with loud special effects so I don't disturb my neighbors. Unfortunately, these were volume limited and did not go any louder than where I have to keep my volume now. Plus, there was a noticeable delay when I was watching streaming services.

For the audio delay, please try the following steps to remedy the issue:
