Really good headphones
They isolate sound really well. Great sound quality. Good for public settings. Microphone quality isn’t the best.
Reuth, 25 - 34
Very happy with this product
Does exactly what I need for the price I paid- very satisfied. The noise-cancellation could be stronger, but it's pretty good for daily use. The headphones are very comfortable but can get a bit too hot in the summer. The sound quality is really good. The battery life is very good but I wish you could still use them when they're plugged in to charge. Very little latency issues so I find them great for watching films etc. I find the power on/off voice/sound quite annoying but that's maybe just me... Would prefer something short and simple instead.

Ideal for for a peaceful flight
Exactly what I need for my upcoming long-haul flights. I'm hoping to get some sleep without the constant plane noise.I've not tried them on a plane yet, but at-home use suggest that they will definitely do the job.

I'm actually amazed by how good the noise cancelling is. I sometimes forget about it in the gym, then take the headphones off to wipe the sweat off, and the gym music is ridiculously loud. Honestly the noise cancelling is fantastic, I can't hear any of the gym music with these on. The best I've experienced. I'm yet to use it on a plane but I imagine it will make sleeping during a flight much easier.

Apologies, without a Bluetooth adapter this won't be possible.
Thanks for using Q&A.
Hi Tom,
Unfortunately not, if the proximity sensor part inside the left unit housing gets fogged up or there are water droplets on it due to condensation or humidity from sweat, etc., wearing detection may not work properly. When the sensor part is fogged up or there are water droplets on it, leave the proximity sensor part facing up until the moisture disappears.
