Comfy with great build and sound quality!
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve had these for a few months and I love them! I like that there is an app to get the most out of the headphones and you have a lot of options for customization of your sound. I was on the fence between these and the AirPod Max but I’m glad I got these! These are also able to be controlled by the touch sensors on the outside of the earphone, which is a cool option.

These won me over because the sound and quietness is far greater than the max. Also this is one of the best purchases ever, totally worth the money.
