What reviewers say

Reviewers agree comfort, effective noise cancelling and the flexible app are strengths. They find the default tuning uneven and recommend EQ adjustment. SoundGuys praises battery endurance and call clarity but hears hiss in Transparency mode; TechRadar finds the price increase weakens its value and wearing detection inconsistent when resuming playback.
