    Really good quality and worth the money! I’ve been thinking about purchasing this headphones for a while and I was having second thoughts because of the price but then I decided to finally buy it and it became the best purchase I’ve made this year. Sound quality was superb! It was easy to connect and I’m glad i can connect to 2 devices at the same time. It was also available for pick up so fast so i’m really happy about that.

    Awesome Sound. Kind of expensive, but the sound really delivers, especially if you use a 360 app. The buttonless feature takes a little time to get used to, but once you get it, its easy enough.

    Crystal clear. Well made. Ear foam seems solid. Connects well to multiple devices. Compared to other headphones in the same price category, they perform as well or better in all areas.

    After seeing many reviews, I decided to buy them and waited for Black Friday Sale, and finally got them. First thing to say the UltraHD music on Amazon Music Unlimited paired with these headphones is lit combo. I was able to differentiate between the HD song and UltraHD song. Moreover the 360 Audio was good but in my personal preference, I vote for HiRes rather than 360 Audio. Further, coming to noise cancellation, it was pretty good, it blocks most of the sounds, but some times I can listen to engine sounds, its very few times. Overall the best Headphones I have ever purchased. I highly recommend for daily use

    Noise cancellation is excellent. Comfort is very good. Works great with all my devices EXCEPT my android phone (Samsung Galaxy S10+). I can hear well with it but the microphone doesn’t work with the phone, so have to hold it up to use phone mic. But decided to keep it because it is otherwise great,
