Widespread power button failure and poor support - DO NOT BUY

I bought these when they first came out in June 2016 and they have worked very well. However, in January 2018, the power button began to malfunction.

Pros
  • 20 hours of battery life on a single charge; up to 40 hours with cable
Cons

Pros

Cons
  • Nothing

Sennheiser PXC 550s, Bose QC35s and B&O Beoplay H9s purchased.*Sound1. B&O - no doubt, esp. middle and low frequencies (e.g. organ or cello); awarded high too.2. Sennheiser3.

B&O is good but you're not deaf enough to sound around and that can work if you want those mids!2. Sennheiser* Materials1. B&O - the best, not only visually but also haptically: brushed…

Pros
  • Dual noise canceling system for clear calls even in windy weather
Cons
  • not as good as advertised
