Good sound, nice seal, not for LARGE head / ears
I got it refurb. It's sealed and totally looks new.
【Sound】
I enjoyed the sound. The base is there. The mid & high are clear. But I am not audiophile. Compared to my other headsets, this one has better sound. Although not the best. Although there is ANC (Active Noise Cancellation - an electronic method to cancel noise by emitting counter wave to cancel it), the tight fit around your ear (over-ear) seals the outside noise much better than others.
【Size & Battery】
The battery life is good. The fitting is tight. My head is size 7 3/4. That's XXL or 61.6cm / 24.25". For most people, it should work fine. The real problem is that it hurts my ears after a while. I often wear them with glasses for hours on end. I tried to endure it to see if it gets better. The fitting loose a bit but my ears still hurts too much to endure.
【Construction】
General construction is solid. The headband is steel inside wrap around by soft protein protection. The button is hard plastic. When I press the button, it creates unwanted sound. A softer button will do a better job. This reduce the value of the headset.
【Accessories】
There is a nice cable allows you to connect to 3-prong connector to your mobile phone which allows you to talk with wire. This is VERY unusual. It's a very nice touch!! There is a charging cable. It's micro USB which a lot of people probably have tons of. I didn't try either cable nor measure the length. My guess is the headphone 3.5mm cable is about 3~4 ft. The micro USB charging cable is about 2~3 ft. There is a nice heavy duty carrying bag with small compartment holding accessories.
【Connection & Multipoint】
The headset supports multipoint connection. This means it can connect to two devices at the same time. But you can only stream from one device at any time. This is important to me as I am always connect to my PC and my phone is by my side.
Initially, I had difficulty to pair to the headphone from my devices. It's hard to find. I am not sure why. I tried many ways including turning off the headphones. Finally, I was able to connect. It was VERY difficult to connect to 2nd device. I have to turn off the headphone and Bluetooth on my phone multiple times to finally get it to pair.
Once I get through the pairing phase, it was fine. The next time I turn on my headphone, it takes a moment longer to connect but it works out fine. Same with my phone. Switching between them is a bit difficult but not impossible.
【Conclusion】
I wish the fit is better. I really like the shape & the sound. The battery life is good but I wish it can be better. The construction can be improved. USB C is much appreciated. The surprise is the included 3-prong cable which allows you to connect via wire when battery is low and still take via the headphone. Although I doubt most people will use it much.
All in all, if you don't need ANC, does not have a gigantic head nor large ears, you should enjoy this medium-long battery life with good sound and nice seal.
