Bluetooth connections
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I prefer the XM4s Because you only need an auxiliary cord and can have them turned off to plug into a PC. The XM5s To be used by Bluetooth, which uses battery and has a bit of delay versus using the auxiliary

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

Very good but not exceptional
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very good headphone with some flaws( minor). 1. The material on the ear cups is finger print magnet. 2. It feels so hot after using it for an hour so. I was sweating after using it for a couple of hours. 3. The case/folder is very large and cumbersome to carry it around. 4. The noise canceling and audio quality is excellent but not exceptional or any better than from the new Boss quiet and apple earMax. Overall very good headphone with some flaws.
