||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A bit of a stretch for people with big heads. Looks great but materials are light/mid quality feeling. Feels more like 200-300$ headphones.

Too expensive
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm coming from Jabra Elite 85H and I mostly listen to podcasts while driving. with the 2-year insurance plan these are $500 with bad touch controls very poor battery life and sound quality and noise canceling that isn't that much better than my 85H. That were $300 with a warranty. These have weird buffering noises while in a vehicle that my last set did not do at $200 less even without the warranty even at $400 these are overpriced and I cannot recommend them to anyone especially with the volume at 50% to 70%, they last about 15 hours versus my 85H with volume from 80 to 90%, they would last 25 to 30 hours. That's the one thing about these headphones is the noise canceling is so good that your volume doesn't need to be as loud but then the battery doesn't last as long, which brings me to the final nail in the coffin and why I'm returning these, you cannot charge them and listen to them at the same time, I don't understand why that is and I'm just grateful that I found that out for the end of my 30-day return. I'm going to try to move to Sennheiser since you cannot buy the 85H any more, I would gladly return to those but they're out of stock on best buy.

I should have read the reviews before purchasing. The M4 which is over $100's less probably is the better value. I am a disappointed with the volume level.
