Excellent noise cancellation and better mic vs XM4
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The noise cancelling is excellent. I use these to sleep at night because of extremely noisey neighbors upstairs. I've regained my sanity! Also, the mic when speaking to someone over the phone really isolates your voice and they do not hear background noise. While walking outside, I had a conversation and the person on the other end could not hear the dogs barking (loudly) in the background. Definite improvement from the XM4 headphones. The only thing that I'm not crazy about is that they do not fold.

These headphones have no competition.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The audio quality is superb. You think your airpod pros are nice? Put these on and you will want throw your cute earbuds in the food disposal. Whats most impressive about these headphones is the voice isolation feature when on phone calls. You can be in a car with loud music on the phone, and the person on the other end of the line will only hear your voice. The technology is so good it makes everyone else look bad. It doesnt make sense
