Okay headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good headphones, the sound quality and noise cancelling are top notch. I am a medical student and using these to study were amazing. But the build quality isn’t the best. I ended up returning them and buying AirPod maxs instead.

Great Sound and Noise Cancelling, Poor Quality
|Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had a few pairs of headphones in the $200-400 price range over the past few years. This is among the best in terms of sound quality (Sennheiser Momentum 4 is about the same to slightly better at a lower price) and the best in terms of noise cancelling. However, these headphones are made very cheaply and are not built to last. Immediately when taking out of the package I could feel they were made out of a cheap plastic and had concerns about their durability. I enjoyed them for about 7 months until they broke at the rotation point. If you are willing to pay this price and buy the geek squad protection plan these are good headphones but if you don't get the plan or expect to keep these for many years beyond the length of the plan I would stay away from these. It's disappointing they can't spend a bit more to make these right considering the price.

Great headphones except battery and comfort.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Headphones are amazing, and frequent updates improve the quality of noise cancelling. However the battery life on them is suboptimal and the headband has given me quite the head dent is uncomfortable after.

Comfy with great build and sound quality!
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve had these for a few months and I love them! I like that there is an app to get the most out of the headphones and you have a lot of options for customization of your sound. I was on the fence between these and the AirPod Max but I’m glad I got these! These are also able to be controlled by the touch sensors on the outside of the earphone, which is a cool option.

Not what you're expecting... but in a good way!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They're *just* great sounding headphones. I read reviews and got myself hyped and nothing too complain about, at all, but they're slightly over hyped. Not over rated though, just amazing sounding headphones.
