Cant go wrong with this line ever
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great upgrade from my xm3. I love the new design. If I had one gripe, it’d be that you cant fold them over anymore for minimal storage. But that’s not a deal breaker for me.

Noise melts away, but no waterproofing

Great sound without outside noise
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound with adjustable equalization with app. Outside noise diminished greatly. Only thing I miss is voice announcing bluetooth connection, battery level, power off. New model just has beeps, no voice announcements.

Great Active Noise-Canceling.
