Headphones
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Went to the store looking for new headphones, and was in between these and the AirPods max. These won me over because the sound and quietness is far greater than the max. Also this is one of the best purchases ever, totally worth the money.

When you wear a hat it messes with the connection and ear sensors! Try not to distort ear sensors wearing hats. Otherwise great purchase!

Beautiful sound and noise cancellation
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound and noise cancellation are second to none in my opinion. If I must pick a fault it would be coming from the x4's The fifth is not as comfortable. Don't get me wrong it is still very comfortable but but the X4 is worth second to none in terms of comfort.

Excellent for music lover.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent product. The Bass, clarity of the sound, the vibration, details of the back ground instrument is harmonically combined and it delivers to your ears with the most details. Of course, the source of the sound also has to be good enough to fully appreciate the headphones. Noise cancelling is great works perfectly in the environment I am using. Mostly Airplane, Train and in the park. Voice call is nominal. It does what all the headphone would do. Overall as a NC Headphone this is a great product.

I love it but...
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love the ANC and the new mics really makes a difference when you're having a phone call in public. I wished the sound was a little more crisp and sounded a little louder! Other than that I would recommend 9/10.
