Bought them because I fly a lot for work and they’re great for blocking out all the noise in airports and on the plane. Highly recommend, if you have extra money laying around.

Excellent noise cancellation and sound quality
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing noise cancellation--when I took them off, the noise of my office AC (usually barely perceptible/unnoticeable) seemed really loud by comparison. I also enjoy my music with much more focus while wearing them. Of course, this is coming from someone who only used AirPods, so my experience is probably to be expected... but I stand by my review!! I haven't worn them to the gym yet though because I don't want to sweat in them... need to figure out how to protect these babies because they are that awesome!
