It was brought as a present for a friend. He loves it . Can’t wait for the summer days where he can use it while working.
Nicole N.
Bought for an 11 year old boy. He absolutely loves them. Really comfortable and very noise cancelling. Highly recommend.

They are nice, but some weird sound shows sometimes when it's quite loud and bassy. Like if they couldn't handle it and sound is distorted. I thought ANC would be greater, but it's my first headphones with ANC. Like I hear things while walking on busy street and without ANC they are worthless, so I don't understand all the fuss. My cheap urbanears on ear headphones for me sounded not much different when on street.

I'm enjoying it !

Good quality for a nice evening price. Recommend it
Erik B.
Nice audio quality.
Alma I.
Great Device, for me it was too much ANC as I cycle in headphones and cannot hear my surrounding. Soundwise it is awesome.
Rotimi O.
Im not an expert on Audio far from it so ill keep this brief and simple. They are super comfortable. The sound is extremely good - very comfortable to wear over extended periods of time.

Great quality headphones
Thomas B.
Very comfortable and lightweight. Bass leaves a small bit to be desired but it makes up for it in other areas

Perfect. Was surprised with the ease of use and and quality. Good value for money.

So, I spent a long time comparing Sennheiser products to choose the best one - If I'm going to spend money, I better do it right.
I was looking for a pair of headphones to give me a really good music experience, as well as blocking out the loud sounds of my flatmates, all the while being comfortable, durable and battery efficient. High standards, I know.
So, music quality - brilliant. Good bass, doesn't compromise on the treble, amazing surround sound effects, crisp audio. One thing I noticed is that the maximum volume is not as high as other headphones I've had in the past, but hey, it's certainly loud enough and at least this way I'm not damaging my ears.
Noise cancelling - As these headphones have three noise cancelling settings, it is quite flexible in suiting your surroundings. The noise cancelling is very effective, although of course, very loud sounds will penetrate the headphones. I'm pretty happy with the noise cancelling element.
Comfort - comfortable as they're over the ears and you can wear them for a long time without getting sore. The only thing I notice is that they do tend to slip off my head a bit when I'm working with my head down, but I get around that by turning on the ANC as the clamping force helps keep it on.
Battery - very good.
Touch controls - it's quick to get used to the buttonless commands on the headset. Up, down, left, right, tap, double tap etc. and it is not too sensitive, something I was concerned about when buying this model.
One thing I had a problem with though is that when it connects to multiple devices, there can be quite a lot of interference. For example, when I was listening to music on my phone and googling the definition of a word on my laptop, my music would stop. This only happens with pages that have audio files on it, as the software anticipates you will want to open the file and listen to it. I also had a few problems with bluetooth phone calling, but I seldom use it.
So all in all, definitely worth the price (£179), and quite a pleasure to use. Takes me out of this world and into my own!
Hope this helps you make a decision!

Beautiful sound. The touch features take a little to get to grips with.

I like the design and simplicity of this product. ANC is quite good. I could talk to my wife on the phone via Bluetooth whilst cooking in the kitchen with ANC on. Sometimes the Bluetooth connection is getting interrupted very shortly during music playback, which is annoying of course. But it is seldom. What I couldn't figure out is why some people say that the mic in the headphones is very quiet and my voice is for some almost silent. Maybe it's a software issue, maybe a connection issue, maybe something with the headphones. Did not have these problems with other wired headphones.

I love them but i need to return them as they are not working properly which has made me sad. Other than that they are great.
