Too close to call…
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent, but just a tad bit less excellent than the AirPods Max. It’s too close to call thought and you can’t go wrong with these. A little less base, but better sound overall and top notch noise cancelling.

I'm happy with my headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The good: great for music, phone calls. I love the feature to minimize the sound. Cons: Not great for workouts which is one reason for my purchase. The sound is great but the material that covers the ear gets clammy.
