I like these, but they do have a few flaws.
Firstly, they are not loud enough. When watching something on a streaming service on my phone, I have them at full volume and still want them a little louder. I actually thought they might have a volume restriction for kids that can be turned on and off, but that’s not the case. This doesn’t apply to music though. I don’t have them at full volume when listening to music. The issue just seems to be if I’m using them to watch something (and yes the volume is at maximum in the streaming service app).
The noise cancelling is just ok. I expected better though.

On the plus side these are really comfortable to wear. Previously I was wearing a pair of Beats Solo3, and they hurt my ears after a while. These sit over the ears and are great.

The sound quality is pretty good.
I bought these in the Black Friday sale and they were about 60% off the regular price, so I bought these instead of the Beats Studio3 which I was going to get as they were about $120 as opposed to the Beats which were $300.
I’m glad I bought them and I do like them, but if I paid full price I think I would have been a little bit disappointed

Great battery life and the app for the equaliser is very handy. It also allows for the firmware to be updated. ANC isn’t as great as I thought much like others have commented but still good. They should do the trick on a plane. They also don’t get as loud as I would hope and I can’t see how they can be adjusted. Overall, for the price they are good quality, sturdy and comfortable headphones.

I love Sennheiser- this would be my 8th pair over 35 years, however first noise canceling. What a let down. Easy to turn on NC, you can hear a white noise. But that’s it. NC 0/10. Every thing else about them is why I buy Sennheiser, great sound, comfortable, reliable and durable.

Do not buy for the NC - you’re better off putting your fingers in your ears and humming!

Positive: Sound quality, noise cancellation, battery life and Black Friday pricing.

Negative: The headband is not very comfortable and caused light headaches initially due to the clamping pressure. After persevering for a month the pressure on my head is ok but not super comfy. Nowhere near as comfy as my older Audio Technica ANC9s. Long usage leads to heat on the ears, again bit something i'l didn't have with the ANC9s. There are a few annoying features like the microphone replaying external sounds within the headphones that can apparently be turned off but i can't get the Sennheiser app to work properly yet.

Ich habe sie mir fürs Fitnessstudio gekauft und sie tun das was sie sollen perfekt. Der Klang ist wie von Sennheiser gewohnt top und die Akkulaufzeit ist enorm gut! Ich nutze sie 4-5x die Woche für 2-3h im Gym auf fast maximaler Lautstärke und ich muss sie weniger als 1x im Monat laden, ich bin sehr positiv überrascht und würde sie mir immer wieder holen.
