Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I just upgraded my iPhone and I wanted to buy myself an nice set of headphones as a treat. I listen to lots of music. I figured I'd look at the bose and the beats. Every time I did a search for noise canceling headphones these kept popping up. I'd look past them. But then they'd pop up again. The high end headphones are pretty expensive. So I figured I'd give these a try for $70. Worst case I'd send them back and buy something better. But WOW. THEY SOUND GREAT! Nice and clear and crisp. Great range of sound. Nice balance. Not too heavy. Great range at both ends of the sound spectrum. The noise canceling nicely lowers ambient sound. The headphones are light weight and very comfortable to wear. And the battery charge is great. They came charged. I've been listening here for 3 hours just relaxing. James Taylor. Boston pops. Trans Siberian orchestra. Garth brooks. I've tried a nice mix. I'm very pleased. They paired easily. Only annoyance as others mentioned is the volume controls are reversed. Top button lowers sound and bottom raises it. Very well made and comfortable to wear. They seem built to be quite durable and very high quality. They feel high quality in the hands and on the head. They even come with a storage bag. No charger. Only a cable. But they will charge from any USB charger. Update over a year later. I'm still loving these headphones. I recently tried in a set of beats. And compared backnand forth. I'd argue these sound just as good. I'm still lovin them. Listen to music nearly every night and these are wonderful. I wasn't sure from the description of there was a built mic for taking phone calls. But I've taken a couple calls here now and people seem to be hearing me no problem. Now time to drag my butt out of the recliner. But what a nice relaxing time with a headphones that seem to work much better than one would expect from the price. Definitely a keeper. Maybe I'll go after a high end pair some day. But for now these seem to work wonderfully. Update 2/15/17. WOW. I LOVE THESE HEADPHONES! The sound is wonderful. I have many hours in them now. They are comfortable to wear. They are very well made. They are built heavy enough to not feel cheap. But not heavy on head at all. Music is wonderfully clear. Highly recommend these. Seem to be far better performance than I expected for the price. And I just noticed another cool feature when paired with the iPhone 7. There is a headphone indicator that appears to right of screen and next to it is a battery level indicator for the headphone battery. Nice!
