Solid product, But not for me
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only issue I had was with comfortably. Which I found them to be extremely uncomfortable. However, thats just me. To each their own, as I’m sure no two heads are the same. Try them on before you buy, that was my only mistake.

Great Headphones, Okay App & A Little Frustration
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The app is okay and the headphones are nice, not perfect but they are nice. The app can be a lot to deal with and apart from just pressing buttons and getting a feel of it, it is not really intuitive. That being said there are some very kool features with it. As for the headphones, I wish there was more than 3 levels of noise cancellation and I wish the cancellation was on a higher level. Comparing them to the Bose, I'd say the headphones themselves work well and there are more options with the app but the noise cancelation is not as good. These are still great headphones with many features and are worth the price but I would have been happier if they costed around $325 vs $400. There are also paid app features that I have not used yet and that is frustrating because of the price.
