Overall Great Headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Headphones are easy to setup, comfortable, and have a long battery life. The noise cancelling could be better. Not sure if its the software or the actual headphones, but in some environments the noise canceling doesnt even seem to turn on.
