Nonsense filters and so much more.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was apprehensive about purchasing these. Since I have owned them now for a few months, I would say they're worth it. The sound is awesome and the noise cancellation is among the best I've used. The best thing is how nice they are at totally blocking out the boss's voice, girlfriend when she's angry, and just anything that you don't feel like listening to. Get em. The Bluetooth distance is crazy.

Best noise cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent noice cancelling, significantly better than my last Bose, which was not cheap. I already bought another for a relative, and another one when seeing how well it works on the airplane, will buy a bunch for his employees.

Great looking headphones.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Similar to the other reviews. I used to own the sony WH 4s but overtime they fallen apart. I purchased the WH 5s for an "upgrade". The bass seems to struggle at high volume. When taking off the headphone to rest around your neck, they flip up intead of down towards your chest. They look great. Sound quality 4 out of 5. They may be on price drop soon.

Best over ear headphones for the price.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have owned these for almost 2 years and believe they are the best headphones on the market. The fact that even on sale they haven't dropped in price since I bought them is proof enough, but I have used these daily since I bought them without any issues. The firmness of the pads has gone down, but not enough yet to justify a replacement. I use these for work, and they have lasted thousands of hours of constant and hard use, along with airplane rides and more. The sound suppression is comparable to none, and I have since purchased a second pair for my gf. I am literally wearing them right now.
