Mine are 7 months old now, I paid full price for them and wrung them out so you don't have to. First, good. Passive noise abatement is real. I used them to block out my lawn mower, the wind noise of a convertible, and my kids' screams. Does everything without problems. High and low blocking is good when you have fresh baits. The magnetic neck loop is just superb and everyone I know who's tried it agrees. If you return without Bluetooth headphones, you will miss it. The general use is quite ergonomic. If you get a call with headphones, you'll hear "Ride of the Valkyries" of all things! :D, presses one of the buttons, doesn't remember which one, and it goes up. The small kit that comes with the package contains all the necessary accessories: charging cables, tips of different sizes and instructions. Bad site. Passive noise isolation is provided by replaceable foam ear tips that fit snugly around your ears. They need to be replaced from time to time to maintain the same level of noise reduction. They're not expensive, but they're not cheap either. The battery life is short. Yes, it says 4 hours. But I was amazed at how often I wanted/needed more. Long car rides, forgetting to turn them on one day, forgetting to turn them off one day, and the like. How is a noise canceling microphone advertised? Hopeless. I've tried this several times while mowing and driving. Not good. You MUST reduce the noise to speak. Quirks: Magnets that answer calls, hang up, stop/start music are too simple. I put them around my neck again several times and listened to them playing music. Simply because I took them off when the music wasn't playing. I think this is intentional and I just need to be more careful (which I am doing now) but an improvement would be cool. I have connected them to over 5 different devices, laptops, iMacs, iPhones and Android phones. That works great. If you use them with that many devices, it's a good idea to turn off Bluetooth on the devices you're NOT actively using to disable the auto-pairing feature. However, the side effect is that an always-on iMac can cause the headphones to connect to it AND the intended device using the 2-connection feature. It's not a problem until you're out of range of the iMac. Then, while listening to music, you'll beep as the headphones connect and disconnect to a device that's barely out of range. You MUST disconnect the device out of range to resolve this issue. Finally, I checked the IPX3 rating again. I wore them almost constantly while brushing my teeth, even in bed and once accidentally in the shower. And it killed her. The left earbud is now very weak and the two earbuds appear to be out of phase, resulting in a hollow effect. So I suggest you try the new model instead. I will probably do that.
