Good autonomy and management of several devices at the same time
Comfort and sound are OK, battery life is really good and the headset feels solid.
I connected it to both the PC and the phone, and the headphones switched from one to the other without a hitch and always in the expected way.
On a negative note, however, the ANC (Adaptive Noise Cancelling) isn't great.

Fantastic!
Even if it has a few flaws that might make some people cringe, it still deserves a top score!
+ Respectable autonomy. 44h for my part, and recharges very quickly!
+ The ANC really does its job despite the rumours!
+ Respectable comfort if you wear it well (see below). Zero pain after 7h of non-stop wearing!
+ Connection to 2 devices at the same time! The reason why it deserves its 5 stars! Very few headphones of similar or higher range do it! the pairing is super simple, no conflicts between the 2, when one plays, the other pauses. The headphones are very easy to use, no conflict between the two, when one is playing, the other one pauses. And when it's a computer & phone connected: even if you're listening to your computer, you'll receive the slightest notification from your phone (sms, call, mail,...) in the headphones!
+ Automatic pause/play thanks to the optical sensors! You take off the headset and it will pause what you are listening/watching. You put it back on and it will play again! So simple but essential! Very few headphones do it so well!
+ The mobile application is very ergonomic compared to other brands.
- The mobile app is very ergonomic compared to other brands. + Notice to big ears => forget this headset!
- I've been using them for a while now, but I'm not sure how long they've been in use, so I'm not sure how long they've been in use, but I'm not sure how long they've been in use.
- Very very slow update of the headset firmware (25min anyway). No excuse given the theoretical Bluetooth speed.
- Possible loss of quality/random micro-cutting on streaming audio (Spotify especially). Very serious flaw (not corrected with the update), but anecdotal for those who listen to old school audio (stored on the device). Nothing to report on the YouTube/Netflix side.
- The sound quality is rather average-good: I come from a Logitech G533, and the difference is not ouff. So don't expect an auditory slap in the face if you're coming from the entry-middle range.
