Best noise cancellation
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best noise canceling headphones on the market. Pricey, but you get what you pay for. Long battery life. Sounds quality out of the box is good, but is much better after EQing them.

The Best for Noise Cancellation and Call Quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The main reason to buy these is noise cancelling and call quality. They considerably outperformed my Air Pod Max's, especially the microphone. I was surprised, that the microphone quality is also considerably better than my Air Pod Pro 2's. It is very nice to be able to adjust the level of transparency. Their sound quality for music is good, but not really better than the Air Pod Pro 2's (if you fully configure them). Without question, Air Pod Max's sound better if music is your main focus.

Incredible sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound quality (especially if you download the sound connect app and customize the equalizer) but my only grievance would be in the design. Having had multiple pairs of these I would recommend the six’s because they seem to have a better build quality.
