Great product, best quality.

I wanted to buy this model with a wire, but I saw the BT version in the store and decided to try it. Due to mobility, I had to sacrifice sound quality, even an inexperienced person will notice that when the wire is connected, the headphones sound an order of magnitude better. They connect to the Macintosh every other time, but this is the fault of OS X itself, and iTunes playback control takes place with a delay of 1 second. In general, the product is of high quality, except that the price bites.

Pros

Soft ear cushions, appearance, build quality, the ability to connect a wire (included, but you can buy another one to your taste), they are friends with the iPhone (including displaying the battery charge on the device), the battery lasts for a week when used in the evenings (for working day is more than enough).

Cons

Average sound quality over BT (they sound noticeably better with a wire), inconvenient location of the player control buttons, useless "turbo-bass" function, heavy weight (compared to Sennheiser HDR-170), due to the thickness they block the neck when worn on it, poor ventilation (on the street I sweat in them), price.
