" ... Comfortable ear cup padding ... Frankly, because I find the Plantronics Voyager 8200 series to have superior call quality on both ends and to be much more comfortable than these, I will most likely return this headset though it consists of many good features such as seamless connectivity with the iPhone and amazingly high battery life. ... "
" ... There are never off my son’s ears. ... "
" ... Fits my head well and definitely is a must have for when I'm at the gym. ... "
" ... I've gone through maybe ten or fifteen pairs of earbuds so far. ... This is a stupidly comfortable over ear headset with the sound and design to match its Apple product cost. ... "
" ... Don't fall for the fake comments it had me second guessing my self before my purchase and now I'm glad I made it. ... "
" ... I love the sound quality and the long battery life, but the cups that go on my ears hurts after a while, still a great product I would recommend ... "
" ... Best wireless headphones hands-down! ... "
" ... They're comfortable, lightweight, compact, they feel good. ... "

" ... Overall very disappointed, I'll be sending it back, and hoping Amazon Remedies the situation. ... "
" ... Called Amazon and we are stuck with them. ... "
" ... Now amazon is saying they can’t be returned and that’s ridiculous! ... "
" ... At this point I will never but a beats product again nor will I buy high dollar items through Amazon again if I don't get help soon. ... "
" ... This seems like a knock off and also came scratched and damaged. ... "
" ... Recieved a fake ... "
" ... I have tried contacting the seller and they just dont care to help! ... "
" ... I ordered red and got silver BUT that isnt the worst thing - they were totally a knockoff - they have name and everything but I own another pair I bought at Best Buy and the new ones were a lot lighter - the ear cushions were terrible and the foam under head support was garbage - Amazon beware of where you are getting these before you put your seal of approval on them. ... I am going to a big box store to get my replacements so I can see and feel them for myself before I buy - Amazon usually great but they failed on this one! ... "
