Took a chance on these as they are less than half the price of Top brand named Headphones, but glad I did as these are really well made, comfortable, light, great noise cancelling and Bluetooth.
Very pleased.
I absolutely love these headphones they’re so comfortable and such a cute colour. I had to replace them as my last pair were stolen and I’d only had them for a month. Great noise cancellation for when you’re commuting on busy public transpo
All good to all aspects. But if you willing to use noise cancelation and your expectations what London underground tube sound will be gone it ain’t happen. They still do good job after all. I like the most how comfortable they are as well as sound quality.
First NC headset and it is great!
I don’t use headphones regularly but wanted the option and the Q30 fits the bill nicely. Not to heavy and not to tight but amazing sound! And great to just knock down the high noise level around you.
These are going to get a lot more use than I thought!
Excellent noise cancelling, cracking sound, useful app.
Bought to replace an older pair of wired headphones. This has Bluetooth and wired. Great protective case. Don’t know on battery life until I use them in anger but other reviews have it as great. Will definitely last a long haul flight without charging.
Oddly took some time to get used to them initially felt a bit strident but the sound though not lush is detailed – I don’t think the noise cancelling would win a prize but okay
Have been looking for some decent Bluetooth headphone without spending a fortune. These seem to fit the bill. They are comfortable, lightweight and produce good sound. I’ve only used the noise canceling a couple times, but it seems pretty good. Since this is the first pair I e had with noise canceling, I have nothing to compare it to, but it definitely lowers outside sounds in an office to where I barely hear them. The charge also lasts for a long time. I’m sure you could spend a lot more for better results, but I think this would be more than adequate for most people.
For the price these bluetooth earphones are excellent. Sound quality might not quite compete with the best on sale but not everybody wants to pay well north of 100gbp for a pair of earphones unless they use them all the time. The supplied case is a nice feature, the controls are easy to use and the noise cancelling seems to work well although I’ve not tested it in very noisy situations. As others have said the default sound signature is a bit bass heavy but this can easily be corrected in the downloadable app. The earpieces are soft and comfortable and they are generally a pleasure to use. I’d happily recommend these to any but the most demanding earphone user.
Really good for Noise cancellation. It has a button to switch back to normal or transparency so you can easily hear and talk to someone whilst your headphones are on.
Great headphones, highly recommended for the price. Good noise cancelling, very good sound quality. Very small charging lead but I already have some 2m USBc charging leads for my Galaxy Tab 8 tablet.
Bought these for my wife for flying. Noise cancellation works well, sound is good and seem well made. Switches take a little time to get used to but generally very pleased.
Bought these in preparation for a trans-Atlantic flight in economy. Really impressed with them for the cost in comparison to other noise cancelling headphones. They cancel out the aircraft noise brilliantly, but don’t always block out people talking loudly on the row behind you. Bluetooth pairing worked as expected and supplied cable worked perfectly with the aircraft.
The headphones are very comfortable. It only took a by two minutes to get them connected to my android phone. Still getting used to the gesture for changing from noise cancelling to transparent, but nice feature to have.
The sound is excellent through the headphones.
Headphones are great, however, I have had them for about a year and a half and changed the ear cups twice. The plastic that holds the earpieces in place have both snapped in the last 2 weeks, around the same time, so I expect just it’s time, so take that as you will.
