Earcup Size
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely love these headphones. The only reason preventing me from giving it 5 stars is that I wish that the ear cups were bigger (like the Airpods Max). It starts to get uncomfortable after using it for an extended period of time.

Great choice
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headphones, works great, the aux plug in option is great for saving battery and when working off of a laptop or playing on my switch. Just be careful when doing pull ups, the touch controls can be set off due to your arm touching it also. Lol
