Best anc headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This product does live up to the hype, but sometimes the auto features on the device is a bit off like it switches to anc and ambient by itself without me doing anything. Maybe its a settings problem but overall if you tune its eq, youll get the best headphones ever.

Great sound without outside noise
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound with adjustable equalization with app. Outside noise diminished greatly. Only thing I miss is voice announcing bluetooth connection, battery level, power off. New model just has beeps, no voice announcements.
