Review on 🎧 Enhance Your Audio Experience with Audio-Technica ATH-ANC500BTNV QuietPoint Wireless Active Noise-Cancelling Headphones in Navy by Aaron Ward

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Overall happy with them but there are a few issues

I took a quick look at the reviews that are already here and it quickly confirmed what I was thinking. Overall, I am very satisfied with the many qualities of these headphones. The sound quality is excellent considering the price, it's no Bose or JBL, but for most people who aren't audiophiles it will be more than enough. I've used them for gaming as well as listening to music, podcasts etc and they're great for everything. Battery life is good, and if you have properly working batteries, it shouldn't take long to charge at all. I think my head is pretty average(?) and they fit well and are comfortable. My BIGGEST DANGER: Bluetooth. Several other reviews have mentioned this. I've been using them for a few months and recently noticed that the Bluetooth sometimes cuts out completely. At first I thought the battery was dead but it wasn't as it happened immediately after a full charge. I haven't figured out the exact cause, but when it does, the headphones stay on, but the bluetooth turns off. You won't see the usual blinking blue light that Bluetooth indicates, and it will be completely disconnected from whatever device you were connected to. It usually doesn't come back for a long time (10+ minutes) and requires you to fiddle with it by turning it on and off. So far it's only occasional and I luckily bought a 2 year warranty so I'll replace it if the need arises. Disappointed that this is a pervasive issue as I really like these headphones for the price. You'll likely upgrade to better headphones at some point if need be.
