Excellent sound from such a small package

I bought these to replace my walk/work headphones. I was trying to find some behind-the-head headphones, but couldn't find any that weren't super cheap. I saw these at a great price and figured I would try them out. Wow! Is all I can say. The Bluetooth connects immediately and is hassle free. The battery life is great for the size. This is my first time with noise cancelling, it took a little while to get used to it, but I am enjoying it. The addition of a mic on the cord is awesome for when I plug into my DAC. All these features are great, but the icing on the cake is the sound! So clear for the size and being on the ear. I use Amazon Music as my main source and you can hear, clearly, the difference between HD and Ultra HD. When I was listening to a Beatles album and realized I could put it in Dolby Atmos mode, I was completely blown away at the clarity and separation from such a small form factor. All that and they are very comfortable, I wear them all day at work and then use them to watch TV with at night. I couldn't be more pleased with this purchase and I'm tempted to get another set to put back in case something happens to this set.

At first, a small split at the seam. And then eventually split entirely exposing the underlying cushion material

The perfect headphone

Incredible sound with great highs and deep lows, compact and robust which makes them perfect for all the travelling I do. Bought my first set of N60NC back in 2017 so when they finally gave out after years of travel related abuse, I searched for a new pair. After my research, I discovered that the N60NC are still the best in class and bought them again. Most surprising is that the cost had gone way down. Needless to say that I am very pleased with my headphone choice... again.

Hinge broke after one year.

I bought the headphones together with my Samsung phone, from Samsung website.
After warranty expired, the small piece that holds the hinge broke off. No replacement part is available for it. It's a simple plastic piece, with two screw holes.

My long search comes to a close

I own a number of headphones, each with a distinct purpose, but lately I've become frustrated with the cable on the headphones I use for travel, and their lack of noise canceling. I've looked and looked for a pair of bluetooth headphones with ANC that are as compact as those were and that search has thankfully come to a close with the N60NC.
Very compact, amazing sound, excellent noise cancelling, great battery life, and passive listening capability with the included cable. This guy has hit the jackpot!

Great, until they started falling apart.

I liked everything about these when I first purchased them - size, sound quality, noise cancelling, etc. But right around a year after I purchased them (just outside of the warranty period, mind you), the seam on both ear-pads began to rip, exposing the foam inside. Now the cable has also gone bad and the and the audio only plays out of the left side. I did not expect such lousy quality from a premium priced headphone. I'm very disappointed.
