One of the best of it's kind
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.See the multitude of reviews from various publications. Nothing much to be said. Just a bit better than the XM4 in all regards. Smoother Bluetooth multipoint than the XM4 in particular.

Great!
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Use them for work calls and works great as long as it isn't connected to multiple devices. Otherwise, the mic will be turned off and would need to drop off the call and disconnect from the other device.
