Excellent headphones
Bought these as an upgrade from the XM3 headphones which I've been using for many years. I've definitely noticed an improvement in sound quality from these new headphones and the noise cancelling is also an improvement over the XM3 headphones. The only thing I'm not so sure about is how comfortable they are for long listening sessions when compared to my older headphones. Overall though I'm very happy with these headphones and would certainly recommend them to anyone looking for great sound quality and noise cancellation.

Great Value and high quality
excellent sond linked to an easy versatile app. Head band is fragile and better robustness of product for daily use would be ensouraged.

Great buy
Amazing quality of sound and all round. I would definitely recommend.
Zaatar
Great headphones with one or two let downs.
Bought as an alternative to Bose headphones I had returned due to Bluetooth/iPhone connectivity issues. These work great, no issues moving from device to device. These sound doesn’t match what the Bose headphones offered but having made adjustments in the Sound Connect app it’s near as I need. I like the touch control on the outside of the RHS speaker, works well, and the other control buttons work easily. I find them reasonably comfortable to wear for a few hours, would have preferred a bit less weight. The big downside is that you can’t fold them a stick them in your pocket, not ideal if you need to remove them for a while such as if shopping etc.

Honest Review
I bought this a month ago. Audio quality is Top Notch. Build quality it feels cheap, the hinges feel really weak . Mine haven’t broken right now but I’m scared they will.
Ansh
Very happy
Love these headphones. Noise cancelling is the best I have seen (even compared to similar spec Bose etc), easy to use and look great in midnight blue.
