In a nutshell, I approve. If it weren't for the problems I've already mentioned (especially the first one), I'd say it's good. And so, sadly, average at best. Here are some advantages: Careful planning and accompanying details Quality audio Top-notch construction; not a single blemish, creak, or loose screw to be found. Superior absorption of noise Syncing between an iPhone and a Mac is a breeze. While it's true that several reviewers have mentioned how quiet they are, I've found that even in a highly busy environment (like a crowded subway), I only need to have the volume on Bits around half. Some drawbacks There are two major flaws, and I deduct a point for each of them: They automatically shut off in the cold after being exposed for a few minutes. However, unlike a traditional battery, a mere 30 seconds in the heat is all it takes to get them to switch back on. You cannot alter it. The pricing is outrageous for headphones of this quality. The second drawback is the polar opposite of the first: if you take out the headphones, pause the music, and fold them, but don't push the off button, the headphones will keep playing until the battery dies. Even though the technology to create automatic shutoff timers existed and had been refined for at least a decade. Not a bug, but odd nonetheless: despite having its own lightning connector, Apple employs micro-USB on the Bits. However, if you want to listen via the cord, you'll need to purchase an additional adaptor for lightning if you plan on doing so.
