Noisy workplace
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My worksite is really noisy and I was looking for some good noise canceling. So far this has been a game changer. Slightly skinnier and fancier than the xm4 which I’m unsure if I prefer. But so far loving the sound.

Good but a few cons
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall the sound is great! Not gym friendly as I sweat profusely around my ears due to the material also when doing any sort of upper weight movement the music basically pauses each rep not sure if I can change that setting

They’re great, need improvements
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve had these for about two years now. The sound is AMAZING but they kept shutting off and recently they just fell apart??? I mean literally. I go to put them on and one ear piece falls out of the head piece part. Now I have to get new headphones. I would be great if they improved these issues.
