Posted .Hi TanishkaK, it's great to hear that you appreciate the feel and sound quality. However, I'm sorry to hear that they sometimes cause headaches. Please make sure that the headphones are not too tight. Sometimes, adjusting the headband or the position of the ear cups can make a significant difference. If you are using the headphones for extended periods, try taking short breaks to give your ears and head some rest.

Too close to call…
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent, but just a tad bit less excellent than the AirPods Max. It’s too close to call thought and you can’t go wrong with these. A little less base, but better sound overall and top notch noise cancelling.

Nice one
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good headphones, good sound, but I personally had a problem - after 1-2 hours of use my ears start to hurt from the pressure of the headphones themselves. Maybe it's just not my headphone format
