Good
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very comfortable. I upgraded from Beats Solo Pro and these are far more comfortable. I am not the neatest or cleanest person and the light grey color has been super durable and not hard to take care of. Battery life makes it worth it. A bit pricey though.

My new headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best feature on these headphones is the noise cancellation. I took a flight to Paris 13 hours plus filled with children, i head nothing but my great music, I didn’t even hear the noise from the plane. Love that I hear more than just the base.

Thank you for the review and we're glad to hear that you like the headphones.

Depending on the computer you are using, the built-in Bluetooth adaptor may need to be turned on. If you do not know how to turn on the Bluetooth adaptor or are unsure if your computer has a built-in Bluetooth adaptor, refer to the operating instructions supplied with the computer.

||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.One of the best purchases I've ever made. Sound is excellent. Noise cancelling works great. I work from home and use them for meetings... I wear glasses, so being comfortable without digging my glasses into my head was a big deal. I've worn them for hours at a time and they stay comfy.

Works as expected.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I owned the M2 before buying these. Works fine for my needs. The included carry case is nice. Ear cushions are comfortable. Noise cancelling works just as good as my previous version. I'd recommend if you can find it at sale price.

Awesome headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the first 2 previous models before these and thought I should sit this set out and safe some money but I did not but just like the others are great but I must say these are even better as far as sound and comfort.
