I appreciate that you tested the call quality in noisy environments

[SquishyTheBerries]

wow, this was probably the most helpful tech review I've ever seen. I was looking at maybe buying these and this video gave me so much helpful information to make that easier. All of the good and bad details, and the type of use these are good for. It was kind of difficult to find useful information about these headphones but this review was fantastic. You managed to put an hour worth of information in such a concise video. Amazing cinematography, and information that actually helps me understand the product and make an informed decision. Thanks so much! :)

Very interesting product overall, though a bit disappointing they appear to have gone with a proprietary ear cup mount instead of something more universal. They also appear to only have the pleather earcups on their site, I run into the same issue as you with overheating so it would be nice to see at least a fabric option.

Thank you for another great one, Andy! 👍

Thanks for the review! The phone function in windy conditions seems to be comparably quite poor (loud wind noises). Do you confirm that observation?

How's the leakage on this headphones?

[mikeevans]

Shout-out to Kylie Minogue still shaking it after all these years. Thank you Andy I've heard of this company but being in the US not a lot of info on them i hope that changes sooner rather than later. Would you say these hold their own when it comes to sound quality? I'm using the Edifier NB 950 right now. Thanks again. 💯👍🇺🇸

Well I've seen mixed reviews some say the noise canceling is not that good over other noise canceling headphones at the same price

They got to make something like shokz openfit

[DarthtigerBcn]

A low-end headphones quality and features at high-mid-end headphones prize. Being able to repair it for you seems to be the only highlight of this headset.

hey Andy, as for repairability, please do not ignore Meze 99 Classics, that are also built with replaceable parts.
Cheers 😊

I had a pair of Beats by Dre (Side note Cowen E7 headphones 🎧 are from what I read made by Sony and are petty much the same thing as the 500$ sony headphones it's literally just paying for a name or so I've read 🤷🏻‍♀️ i digress) and I had to replace the battery and charging port only for them to keep running the battery I swear they're built tonself destruct after a year or 2 sometimes sooner capitalism ruins everything
