Just super, the product is made wonderfully, very satisfied.

I will rate the sound like this: among all the headphones that are worn on the head that I have tried, they are the best! Watching movies is awesome. And speech and effects, everything is very clear and legible and shake as it should. With music and an equalizer for any genre, there are no problems. Loudness is more than enough.
The Bluetooth signal is transmitted quite far, being in the same room with the transmitter, generally easily and without problems, then it depends on the wall partitions in the apartment and their number, interference and hissing at the same time, no, it only starts to play twitching with pauses. It receives a signal from a computer with lightning speed, without delay (this is important for me - I write subtitles for films, and there the accuracy is up to milliseconds). Tested with Asus Bluetooth 4.0 transmitter.
 DO NOT PANIC if you have already connected them to some device and then start connecting to another and it does not see it in the list of devices! As soon as they are turned on for the first time, they remember this device and in order to enter them into pairing search mode later, you must do this FORCED! By pressing and holding the power button for a long time, until the red LED blinks and at the same time start the search on the device!
Sooo satisfied with the purchase. I would rate my satisfaction with them 4.5 out of 5

Pros

1. Sound. He's awesome! )) Bass bomb! As soon as I came to the store and put them on 1 time, I realized that this is what I dreamed of and I didn’t hear anything better and don’t even want to look. 2. Convenience of wearing, both on the head and dropping on the neck, when you need to throw it off while moving along the street. 3. Quality and workmanship. 4. You can use it like regular wired ones, even if the charge is at zero. 5. Charging is enough for a very long time. I did not measure, but offhand for more than 7 hours without a break. I put it to charge at night, in a day I planted it completely only 2 times a year. 6. Li-ion battery (light, compact, rechargeable) 7. You don't disturb anyone when you listen to music. Neither you, nor you, no one hears. The soundproofing is just amazing!

Cons

1. For 11 kilorubles, for which they were bought, there is no bluetooth adapter for the computer in the kit, well, on the other hand, they are positioned as a headset for mobile devices ((( 2. The wire that turns them into wired headphones is sooo short, like the USB charging one (a year later, I rated it as just right and even convenient, you don’t get confused in the wires, especially when used with a mobile phone). 3. Bluetooth connection only allows audio to be transmitted to 1 audio device. I was very upset that you can’t buy the same second ones and watch movies with your wife while the kinder is sleeping, without tangling in the wires, free movement and through the same Bluetooth transmitter. (But the problem is easily solved by the built-in wired connection, you go to any radio parts store, buy an extension cord (at least 5-7 meters) (100-150) and a plug with 2 connectors 3.5 (20-30) and everything is chocolate) Well, or you need headphones on the RADIO channel)) 4. Very fragile mechanism of torsion of the speakers around the axis. A year later, the plastic of the pin was worn out and the right ear hung on the wiring. I had to put it on hot glue (after refinement it keeps tightly and in principle it is not felt in any way, except that it is ugly (photo attached)). The advice to the developers is to make this part out of metal and somehow strengthen it. 5. The leather trim of the speakers themselves is chic and pleasant to touch and does not peel off, and the sound softens and the ears are not hot and comfortable, but in the inner part, in which the ear itself is located, not very much. A year later, it began to flake off the fabric. I would also like to see it improved.
