The headphones are definitely a bit heavier due to the construction and presence of the amp with noise cancellation. Both functions work well, and they are good sounding headphones even when the amplification is switched off. Using the amp brings out some nice extra oomph, but not in an exaggerated way. Battery life is decent, but you have to remember to switch them off after use, which is easy to forget. There is no auto-off function. Over all, very good sounding and well constructed. Still use them quite a lot along with their passive cousins, the NAD VISO HP50.

I like them, but they're ugly

I'm a fan of these. My daily for home listening are the Philips Fidelio L2s. I typically prefer open back for home but was looking for some decent closed backs for travel. I picked these up bc of the $80 price tag and they get pretty good reviews. Then Covid hit and my use case pretty well went out the window. But I can't complain bc these sound really good! The active amp really adds some punch and fun to most music. I would compare it to driving a typical closed back with a good budget portable headphone amp. It increases loudness and gives a little bump at each of the main frequencies, with probably a bit more emphasis on the lows and highs. Sound stage is nice and the Room Feel really adds some width to the sound, given them an open back feel. Noise cancelling seems passable but I honestly haven't tested that much since I haven't had a chance to take them anywhere. They also come with a nice hard case and a couple cables, which is amazing at this price. Overall very satisfied. My only dig is the look. The black ones are ok but the white are hideous imho. But hey, headphones are to be listened to, not looked at.

Loved it, Does't work anymore.

I got the headphones back 1.5 years ago and loved it. I have no comparison point as these were my first "high end" headphones. They are a bit heavy but build quality is nice and sound is great IMO. Had a problem with the battery cover that is designed too loosely. Noise cancelling is average in the ANC mode, and weak very in the passive mode. Two sided input for sound jack is great! Everything was fine until left side stopped working a week ago. I have always used them with care and only at my desktop. I saw another user had this same problem. I feel it's a design flaw. When i move the cup around and apply pressure in certain angle sound comes back: so this should be soldering or wiring. If I was the only one having this issue I would recommend them ...

Well balanced sound

My go-to closed back. Minus 1 star because the switch sometimes produces a crackle when activated or moved.

They sound great but they're bulky and heavy

I really want to like these but I get tired of wearing them after 45 minutes or so. Overall build quality is fine but not great. The battery cover easily pops off.

Great headphone for the price

As you've heard from other reviewers here, there is a lot that you get with this product-- accessories, including a carrying case, extra ear pads, two cables (one mic, one without), are indicative of a higher price point. The build itself has been strong for me. While I'm not tossing these around in the bottom of a bag or pulling off/on for a daily commute, they have held up very well over my period of ownership (~9 months) with no issues detected. Sound quality is great, but the ANC leaves a little to be desired. Overall I am very satisfied with the purchase and would recommend this product. It compares well to other headphones that are more than double its price.

Very good product for the price

Been using them for months.

Noise isolation is pretty capable, first headphones i've used that have this feature
Super comfortable, I could sleep with these
Sound quality could be better, still much better imo than many others and definitely a bang for the buck (Headphones history: Hifiman 4XX, 1More on-ear, BLON B8; these would rank third in that list)
Although materials might look pretty inexpensive, the product is very durable and I grew to like it, and it's probably one of the most durable pair I've ever owned
Design is very chonky, wouldn't wear at an office

One terribly annoying thing is that it kept picking up on noises, only noticeable when turning on the amp. I'm thinking it's RF but cannot back this up further than personal testing. Noise is not consistent and would appear only sometimes but pretty frequently in certain locations.
