Listen to this
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These head phones are comfortable enough to bing watch but I can't tell if they are on or off unless I listen to them.. I wish there could be a light indicatior to let me know. I have put them away charged but when I want to use them they are not charged.

Perfectish
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Everything was upgraded except for the bass and volume. Cushion is better, look is modern, touchpad is more responsive and the noise drowning is a touch better. Like I said, the M4s are louder and bass-punch you harder but sound is superb as usual.
