78 out of 100 medium confidence 12 reviews
This headset receives mostly positive feedback for its excellent value, good sound quality, and effective noise cancellation. Users appreciate the versatility of wired and wireless use, comfortable fit, and solid build for the price. However, some report issues with microphone quality for calls, a pulsation noise defect in one unit, and a desire for battery percentage notifications. A few also feel the materials are a bit basic for the cost.
