    [Employee of bestbuy] The headphones sound great and are have a high quality build. I also likemhow they sound compared to my Beats Studio and Apple Airpod Max. However, I do not like that they don’t fold. The carrying case is nice though.

    Awesome sound quality! My husband's an over the road truck driver and he swears by these things. Doesn't feel heavy on his head after several hours of wear and doesn't put a lot of pressure on his head, as compared to the Apple headphones.

    I thought they were very nice. They had excellent sound quality. Ans they looked great. The noise canceling feature was awesome. I really enjoyed these. But the reason I returned them was they felt too tight for my head. No matter how I adjusted them, they always felt like they were too tight.

    I adore the headphone's exceptional sound quality and comfortable fit on my head, making music a delight. However, the major drawback is its lack of sweatproof design, preventing me from using it during runs or in steam rooms, which is quite disappointing.

    The comfort is second to none, and so is the ANC and Transparency, the audio is great as well. The black ones do collect grease from your skin and hair pretty easily, go with the silver ones if you have a choice.
