These are the greatest headphones I've ever owned. The sound quality dwarfs all other pairs of headphones and earbuds I've ever had. It makes music sound way better. The only problems I've ever really had is what I'm currently facing, which is the ear pieces falling apart. These headphones served their time and served it well. It's time for a new pair. For how much I paid for it, it's very well worth it's price. It's pretty comfortable, but the headband could've used some suppression. If you want good sound, buy these. 6/5/24 update: it should also be noted that these headphones die. Near the end of my using of them, the actual speakers began to make strange noises, like an ocean and in the other ear, white noise. Everything began to sound tinny. It was a pretty dramatic way for them to go but nonetheless these are absolutely one of the greatest headphones I've owned.

Pros

• Amazing sound quality
• Good pricing
• Portable
• Easy to connect
• Good features
• Noise canceling works well
• Incredible battery life
• Fast charging
• Generally comfortable

Cons

• Wears harshly without an easy fix
• Headband is slightly uncomfortable

4.50BTNC's can't be a better pair

Brendan

Just a quick opinion I have to mention here... How can the 4.50 BTNC be better than the 350BT when the 350BT has USB C Charging over Micro USB? I own the 350BT's and tested out a second hand pair of 4.50's today and there was absolutely no difference in sound quality, loudness or anything. I didn't test out the noise cancelling because I'm only new to the wireless headphone genre but I couldn't even tell the headphones apart if I had a blindfold on, the only difference to me would.be the obvious silver plastic on the 4.50's I also understsnd the benefit of the 3.5mm cable the 4.50's have over the 350's and I looked at the comparison carefully but I think this is just based on what people find appealing about both pairs when (to me) they sound exactly the same. It wasn't like the 4.50's were extra loud, had punchier bass or anything. I couldn't tell the difference. Thanks for reading 🙂
