Good sound, but heavy and disintegrate over time

I got these headphones two years ago and they have pretty good sound for the price level. The ANC could be better, but it's good enough in most mildly loud environments. The main issues I had with them straight away is how heavy they feel on the head if you wear them for a couple of hours, enough to be painful. The other issue is that the ear cuffs started peeling and the leather started to tear at the seems and show the foam underneath. After just 1 1/2 years of light use, this feels unfortunate and does frustrate me. Just be aware that with the low cost comes not the longest lasting pair you'll get.
I love my headphones and use them often, however, I came into an issue with them just today. I tried troubleshooting for screeching noises and anything else that has to do with audio, but nothing helps get rid of the screeching noises.
My half priced headphones outperforms this one in multiple way.I have bigger head eapads are thin, results the headphone unstable in my head, its painful to wearing, always opens holes which results strange sound. A the plastic is better than crap ones, but it near to the cheap plastic sound. The noise cancellation is worst than my other cheaper my ones.
I've had the q45 headphones for about 8 months and the sound quality and ANC are both pretty good, especially for $149. The battery life is crazy good, I have literally binged entire seasons of multiple tv shows (what up, Kodi!) without needing to charge the headphones. The app is decent, the preset eq's are terrible but you're able to customize to your taste.
My only gripe is the size of the headphones. I'm 6'1 180lbs and wear a size 7 and 3/8" fitted baseball hat (I don't have a small head) and even on the smallest setting, the headphones are still too big. I ended up adding some additional padding to the inside of the headband and they're good now, but I shouldn't have needed to do that. I'm genuinely curious as to what giant human being they used as a model for head sizes, bc these things run laaarge, and I'm not new to OTE headphones either.
