Great for Office Work
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good headphones. The noise canceling doesn't silence everything for me with my glasses and long hair, but it definitely makes all the sounds more manageable. The option to enable and disable noise canceling at the push of a button is also very nice.

Good Service, Great Product.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.AMAZING Product. You get what you pay for. I was gifted these headphones and initially thought to return due to the price. We went to Best Buy looked at others, spoke to staff and I decided to keep and try them. I'm so glad I did, I wouldn't trade them for anything now.

Nice upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good improvement in terms of the quality of music it delivers, what I will say that most people will see as a negative is the fact the holding case is bigger due to the headphones not being able to fold closed. At times it did bother me but as I normally have them out due to how much I use them it doesn’t cause much of an issue for me.

Awesome headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was skeptical at first when I bought these headphones but wow do they sound amazing. The noise cancellation could be a tad bit better but it does the job by dialing the airplane noise way down. Would most defiantly recommend these to friends and family.
