Customers are saying

Customers regard the product's sound quality as impeccable, frequently praising its comfort, impressive battery life, and lightweight design. While many also appreciate its good bass, snug fit, and decent active noise cancellation, some concerns have been raised. These concerns primarily revolve around its portability, price, occasional connectivity issues, and a desire for louder volume and water resistance.

    Initially purchased a pair and was hearing screeching sound, left side. 7 days after purchase, returned to Miramesa, San Diego BEST BUY and it took less than 5 minutes to exchange it all out. Best customer service ever! Second pair of headset is now my favorite and I have Bose headsets as well.

    My head is a little big, so it would be better if it could be stretched a little more, but it is very comfortable to wear, and the sound noise reduction function is really perfect. I have been watching this headset for a long time, and the discount on best buy made me get it. Thanks to this store
