Flawed construction
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I absolutely loved these headphones until a plastic component broke on the left earphone, rendering them useless. I wore them daily, they charged ultra fast, their sound quality was fantastic, and their noise cancellation was perfect for what I needed. *BUT* their shoddy cheap construction didn't make it halfway into the warranty period. Extremely disappointing. Do not buy these.

Highly Recommended
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A plus. This product lives up to its reputation. Sound is terrific and it does, indeed, cancel outside sound----until you press on a Headphone when outside noise can be heard. Sweet gear.
