I bought these inJuly 2022, when they were on sale for $149. The sound quality is very good and I had no trouble connecting them to my iPhone. However the ear pads lasted less than 18 months. Bought a replacement set and it was extremely difficult to replace I have never got anywhere near the purported battery life and I am not using the noise… Read more
cancellation feature. Now after less than 4 years, the battery barely holds charge and ear pads need replacing again.
Excellent sound but poor connectivity – My experience with these headphones is... frustrating! Let's start with the good – they're comfortable with the perfect amount of soft tension to stay on, but not give you a headache. I have had them for 2 years and they have been durable and copped a flogging. They look smart. The sound is excellent compared to others at tis price point. Much… Read more
better midrange than Beats (which I think sound awful). I don't really think much of the noise cancelling but I am yet to find a set of headphones where the noise cancelling impressed me. Now for the bad – the connectivity sucks! I'm a Mac/iPhone user. Every time I try to connect, it refuses to connect and I have to forget the device and pair it. Time consuming, and annoying if I have to jump into a meeting. Sometimes it says it connects but I get no sound and at times I have had to reboot and repair. This is a real shame, because otherwise these are great. I should point out I do not have these issues with other headphones, just these.
Will not Connect – Spent 3 hours on Boxing Day trying to connect Bluetooth. Show details
Not made to last longer than a year – Bought these earphones in a sale. Was very happy with them until the ear pads came off. Putting them back on is a nightmare and they constantly fall off which renders them unusable. Tried to take them back to JB HI FI and they basically want to send them away instead of just giving me a refund. They lasted 13 months, not worth buying for a premium product. Show details
Comfort and good sound – Purchased from JB hi-fi $149 a month ago. Connected to TV and Android Phone and Tablet. Great sound on TV and Tidal music on other. App you can make adjustments, equalizer is subtle. Ear cups different and hook over the back of ear and flat on front, extremely comfortable and minimises moderate outside noise, also has noise cancelling (not needed to try yet). Probably not as good as $300-500 headphones, but a this price excellent for me. Show details
Great headphones! – These headphones are great! They have excellent sound quality and amazing battery life! The ANC is amazing however the Smart Control app is kind of limiting, and not very useful, would recommend! Show details
