    A flagship!

    Super sound, even if the "bass lover" may not get 100% of his money's worth. The device can be worn all day without any problems and the noise cancelling filters out the babble of tiresome work colleagues with flying colours.

    The
    headphones come in a practical bag for transport.

    Purchase was worth it! Not overpriced, but quality

    Super headphones!

    The price is worth it because the headphones feel premium in terms of comfort, workmanship and sound.
    Bluetooth works through 3 walls with a distance of 10 metres.

    The built-in microphones for making
    calls are really good. (tested at home)
    The only thing that is sometimes a bit unpleasant is that the touchpad doesn't always react correctly. For example, it almost doesn't recognise light taps. You always have to press down on the surface with your whole finger to make it work best.

    If you think the headphones don't have much bass, please put them in "Club" mode. :D

    Technically excellent, great sound, but for me with a problem in wearing comfort, ANC causes a feeling of pressure on the ears.

    Good sound! In CapTune, an effect mode "Director" can also be individually configured which can then be called up on the headphones - I usually listen more quietly with the "DLC" (loudness) setting. However, the equaliser only works when the music is played directly via the CapTune app. The app is not very intuitive to use.

    Technically, the headphones are really sophisticated and work reliably.

    The noise reduction level I can be adjusted in CapTune (0% - 100%), which I find very useful. There are also levels 0 (off) and II (max). However, I am not yet 100% convinced of the active noise cancellation. As soon as I switch it on, I feel a pressure on my ears, and somehow also in my head, somewhere in the region behind my eyes. It's more noticeable in the office than on the road. In noisy environments it is really useful, you need less volume and hear the bass of the music much better.

    The touchpad is really good after a period of getting used to it.

    Unfortunately, the headphones just don't fit for me, a pressure point causes headaches. Probably an anatomical peculiarity, most reviewers are very happy with the wearing comfort.
