They’re great, need improvements
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve had these for about two years now. The sound is AMAZING but they kept shutting off and recently they just fell apart??? I mean literally. I go to put them on and one ear piece falls out of the head piece part. Now I have to get new headphones. I would be great if they improved these issues.

- Pros mentioned:Bass
They’re fine for what they are.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They’re fine headphones but you can get the same performance for half the price. Nothing amazing, the features are more gimmicky than useful. For the app to work properly for active noise cancelling it has to track you which is fine but uses data. None of the Spatial Audio works if you don’t spend the money on the specific apps that support it which cost money. Overall if you’re in the Apple eco-system, get the Air Pod Maxs. They sound better and the noise cancelling is way better. If you want the Sonys get the MX4’s the bass is better.
