Not bad for the price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphones arrived almost fully charged, Set up was relatively easy, but you really do need to use their app to complete the set up process. The app also allows you to change some settings and select equalizer settings that work for you. The switches have a nice feel to them. They do have raised areas designed to help you find the correct switch by feel. There are times however when I find that it is easier to adjust the volume using the phone or I remove the headphone to make a change. This is a very subjective items so you may not have the same issue. No stars were deducted for that reason. These are an on ear device. It was not uncomfortable to me, but it did take some getting used to and here again...Personal preference comes into play. On a warm and humid day you may experience some sweating where the ear cup rides on your ear. That may allow for some movement / shifting of the headphone depending on what you are doing. They may thus not work out well for use doing exercising as an example. The sound quality is great at this price point. I have Bose ear buds. The sound from this device is not Bose quality and you should not expect it to be Bose quality. It is good to very good however. The equalizer settings allow you to control all five typical equalizer settings PLUS a separate adjustment for th4 bass. Paring was easy and fast. The connection remains stable most of the time. There is a selection that allows you to select either top quality sound or a more stable connection. I chose sound quality an the vast majority of the time the connection was stable with no noise present. There may be times however, that due to local conditions / interference you may have a little popping or very brief drop out. I have worn these headphones a LOT since they arrived and while I have experienced that, it was very limited. Now I also have a lot of electric / electronic devices in use on my property and that will may explain what I experienced. I did have some interference from some household devices when I wass very close to them. The battery life seems to be very good. I have worn m for several hours and the voice system still indicates 100% at startup. Unlike my Bose products the battery monitoring system is not linear where it will call out 100%, 90%, 80%b etc... It may call out 100% until the battery hits 50% (As an example) and then te voice system will drop from stating 100% to 50%. I do not see that as an issue or negative given the very long stated by the manufacturer battery life, and I have no disagreement with their claims about battery life aty this point in time, So again...Thus far I am very pleased with the fit, quality, and sound quality of these headphones. Do bed aware that tey are NOT noise cancelling. There will be some outside noise reduction dur to the ear cups of course.

Great Budget Friendly Product
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these to wear to the gym. I have Airpods but I tend to knock them out of my ear when I'm working out. These are amazing, especially at the price their offered for. The sound quality is great and gets loud. If you're next to someone at the gym or out in public, others can't hear what you're listening too even with it at max volume. They're easy to use, come with a simple app to track battery percentage and they don't die quickly. Very comfortable and won't slip even when running. I highly recommend these if you're looking for a budget friendly wireless headphone

GOOD QUALITY HEADPHONE
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve been using these headphones for a few weeks now, and I’m thoroughly impressed. The sound quality is outstanding, with rich bass, clear mids, and crisp highs. Whether I’m listening to music, watching movies, or taking calls, the audio is consistently clear and immersive. Comfort is another major plus — the ear cushions are soft and don’t cause fatigue even after hours of use. The adjustable headband provides a secure yet gentle fit. Battery life has exceeded my expectations, easily lasting over 30 hours on a single charge. Noise cancellation is very effective, blocking out background noise and letting me focus whether I’m working or relaxing. The build quality also feels premium and durable. Overall, these headphones deliver great value for the price and I’d highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality audio gear.

Very Good !
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These were a replacement for my other headphones that someone accidentally broke. These were less expensive and, to be honest, that’s why I got them. COMFORT: I wish they had a little more room at my ears. They don’t feel that secure when I move. Otherwise they are comfortable. SOUND: Not as nice as my JLabs- but very good for how I use them. BATTERY: VERY IMPRESSED! The charge seems to last forever! DURABILITY: I am hard on headphones and I find these to withstand the test with flying colors! WOULD I BUY AGAIN?: I use headphones so so much! I am hard on them- so I would consider repurchasing! I love saving money and not sacrificing a ton on quality. While I like my JLabs better, I find these worth buying, decent quality,

Good sound quality and battery life
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Comfortable to wear. Good sound quality and battery life. Easily connects to my LG TV and PC. However the first pair failed after 3 weeks. Fortunately it was still within the Best Buy return period. I exchanged for another pair which is working ok. Hopefully the first pair was a one off.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted a simple pair of headphones to use while doing homework and these ones were a great fit. the noise cancellation is good, i can control the bass. the battery seems to last a really long time. they’re comfortable to wear for a long period of time (hours). there’s only one thing i have to complain about and it’s that these don’t come with their own little case :(

Great headphones for the price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price, this is a great headphone set. I use it to listen to SiriusXM in the gym through my phone. Sound is better than what I had with earbuds, and they stay on securely during my workouts. Battery lasts a long time between charges. I haven't compared the sound to more expensive headphones, but for me it works great.

Pleasantly Surprised!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these phones because their look reminded me of the phones I used during my radio op training. They bring back fond memories. They are extremely comfortable and very well made. The USB port shouts out its location, no fumbling. Pairing is a no-brainer. Always a quick and steady connection across several devices. I listen to a lot of classical recording, studio quality sound! The fidelity of these phone is outstanding. The bass notes are accurately reproduced without the overly boomy resonance found in low end phones. The high end could be a bit stronger, though. The sound staging is “front and center.” Buy these phones, you will not be disappointed.

Good headphones for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are good headphones for the price - 35$ at the time. I use them at work. they connect easily enough and the sound quality is fine enough for what I need (i.e., work, zoom, listening to music while working, etc.). so far the battery life is really good (at this point I've had them ~3 weeks and only charged them twice. I wish their were like lights to show how much battery life there is (it talks to you "you have 70% battery life"). so its not a big deal for me but thats one thing that comes to mind. They are good if you are looking for "good".
