Even at 25 percent volume, we werent able to hear anything but the audio we were listening to.

The set-up process isnt as easy as other models.

Each individual instrument was distinct and they layered together really well.

This made them comfortable and secure to wear, even when working out.

Their noise canceling feature was sufficient, though not as great as other models.

However, we were blown away by the detailed audio, especially for phone calls.

They feel oversized compared to other over-ear models, making them less portable.

We loved the preset podcast audio mode as well as the audiophile setting for overall music listening.

The battery life and comfort were also top notch for long term usage.

Due to their design, they dont have noise-canceling capabilities.

Our tests determined that they dont fall out or loosen when jogging or being active.

The sound quality for music is top tier and in line with the Bose brand.

However, the call quality performed poorly in environments with background noise.

For the price point, the bass and vocals could be clearer.

The travel case is bulkier and as a result, isnt as portable as other models.

Phone calls were clear, despite being in the middle of a city with many cars going by.

The case can become warm when charging wirelessly.

Even after wearing them for hours, they didnt cause any sore spots or discomfort.

To test their waterproof capabilities, we wore them in the shower and they still held up wonderfully.

That said, we found the noise cancellation mode and phone call quality to be pristine.

They dont come with a carrying case.

These headphones felt incredibly lightweight for an over-ear design, making them a solid option for long-term wear.

Over-ear headphones tend to provide much better noise-cancellation while earbuds are much lighter and portable.

Factor in how you plan to use them when looking for the right pair for you.
