Pros & Cons
Pros

Noise canceling works and reduces constant background noises to an acceptable non annoying level, whilst some excessive noises are still audiable. The noise cancelling is not the best compared to the other brand leader but they are the most comfortabl... Read More
Playing flax files needs to be heard as it’s truest lovely. Sound quality is fantastic to my ears with rich bass tones and super sharp treble.
In bed, out and about, on flights, backseat of the car. The detachable cable is useful when airlines get stroppy about wireless devices. Leather is comfortable and stylish.
Cons
The headphones have a poor apt-x low latency, which means they don't work well on busy streets. They also vibrate too much, which can cause a drumming sensation in the ears.
They are hopeless for phone calls. They are now functionally broken. The tech is utter garbage.
Audio on my macbook pro is very glitchy and temperamental. If the headphones are on, noise cancelling is on. Ambient noise is louder than your own voice if on a facetime call.
No audible battery level warning. They occasionally connect to my ipad but then then disconnect after several seconds. You could just switch to wired.
Who likes them clearly has no clue about what clarity and soundstage are. Bass is muddy and unpleasant. Their major flaw is that will damage your hearing!
Highlights
Quality
The quality so far seems quite good however for the price you pay i expect a leather bag extra ear cups and a replacement cable
Sound quality is 8 out of 10 it’s comfortable but after a while my jaw sometimes starts to hurt
I tried the sony xm3s but was disappointed with the sound quality as they sound somewhat veiled
Now there’s are brilliant headphones the sound quality is fantastic
Price
But for the price i got them at i am keeping them
Packaging/appearance
I thought the packaging was top notch
The anc on the bose are better than the aebt m2
Competitiveness
Noise cancelling isnt as great as sonys flagship models but good enough for most purposes
Bought for use with tv and in conjunction with an avantree transmitter perform with negligible latency
If you are going to buy airpods or any other expensive non overear bluetooth device

I find them comfortable although after a while you do become more aware of them on your ears but that is inevitable with this type of headphone

The only thing that lets them down is the instruction leaflet which is limited and difficult to read
