    A great travel companion, keeps unwanted noise from airplanes out so you’re able to hear the audio, I could never imagine using as a workout headset or wearing on a hot day.

    Flawed construction

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I absolutely loved these headphones until a plastic component broke on the left earphone, rendering them useless. I wore them daily, they charged ultra fast, their sound quality was fantastic, and their noise cancellation was perfect for what I needed. *BUT* their shoddy cheap construction didn't make it halfway into the warranty period. Extremely disappointing. Do not buy these.
