It has a dumb feature but everything else is great
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pretty good sound. Crap gimmick in the left ear cup that pauses music when it's taken off. OK Mic I guess, it's an upgrade from the last one for sure. REALLY long battery life
