Who are these Headphones for?
These are ideal headphones for those who place a high value on noise cancelation properties. The headphones use an innovative technology that perpetually compares, measures, then reacts accordingly to the sounds around you, so an opposite noise cancelation signal can be delivered. This means that you can listen to your favorite music and focus on the sounds you want to hear because the sounds around you can be muffled to the level you want to prevent disturbances. The headphones allow you to control how much of the outside world you want to let in, so you can easily adjust to the situation with complete convenience.
These headphones are ideal choices for people who want to listen nonstop to music without worrying about running out of power in the middle of the day. The headphones are powered by one AAA battery that provides up to 35 hours of listening pleasure, allowing you to go through your day and beyond without being interrupted by power issues. You will be reminded to change the battery when there are roughly 5 more hours of power left and the battery can be replaced in a matter of seconds. Even if the battery dies, the music will continue to play, though you may experience a deterioration in the sound quality.
The headphones are for individuals who want a compact set to bring with them on trips so they will not need to worry about carrying a bulky pair of headphones. They are designed to be folded into a compact bundle that will then fit into the included carrying case, where they can be protected from damage and exposure to the elements so 
you can maintain their high-quality functionality and appearance for a long time.
Verdict
These headphones are a superb choice when you want to concentrate on an immersive listening pleasure without being distracted by noise from the outside world. The cutting-edge Acoustic Noise Cancelling Technology continuously monitors external sounds and reacts promptly to cancel those unwanted sounds so you only hear the music and audio tracks you prefer to listen to.
