||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are definitely a luxury headphone for when you’re looking for that smooth audio and features. Not a big fan of the material it’s made of due to it feeling a bit flimsy and less solid then other headphones.

It connected to devices fast. - build quality and style is also much better than MX3's I recommend.

Pretty neat sound
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really responsive. Amazing sound. Walked down a busy street during rush hour. All I heard was my music. I am worried about the material in regards to the cushion. Sweating while walking can damage them so try and keep them dry. Works great with my galaxy. Download the app to utilize the headphones full potential.

Beyond Amazing Sound
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best headphones I have ever owned. Will never go back to subpar headphones ever again. The sound quality is immaculate. I highly suggest listening to any John Williams music at full volume with your eyes closed. It's so immersive. I've got 10+ ear piercings and these don't bother any of them!
