Wonderful and Light Weight
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well the app allows a seemless transition between the different listening modes. They are practicla and fairly simple to use. However I love that they are light weight and you can barely feel that they are on your head.
