I can dig it

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Well, after messing around a few days with these AKG Headphones, I can honestly say I am glad I got involved.
The weight of them needs some time to getting use to, as I never really owned big headphones. Button placements are ok as they are defined with good shape for you to feel which is which. The overall headset is simple layout of the buttons with the the ability to mute a call as well.
My favorite part is the noise canceling, nice & simple, press a button you here no one, press again, you are back in the world.
They offer a way to switch from ambient sound to talk-thru mode. The talk thru mode. It is an either or setting configured in the software(phone app). it would be nice if you can use the same button with a long or double press to get to the modes instead of just setting it and leaving it, would help.
Overall sound from music and phone calls are good as no one complained about my voice and I was able to hear folks when on a computer or cell phone.
It comes with a cable to plug into a pc headphone- mic jack to use, and I tried it worked well. That cable could be longer just to let stretch away from the pc or cell phone better.

Beyond Amazing!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ive had a bose quiet comfort for many years not wanting to replace them because I didn't think there was something better and not over priced. Well that changed with these. I did my research on these and then ordered the pair of them. Couldn't wait to get them out of the box and charged. I gave them a good charge overnight and the next day started playing with them. The music sounds incredible. The application on my Samsung phone with the headset lets me adjust the buttons and even the equalizer on so many levels. The noise reduction is amazing on it and you just push a button on the headset to turn it off so you can hear what is going on around you. Ive been using them for listening to music on my phone, i used it for a conference call and just been using them for everything. Even using alexa from my phone with the headset. Its so amazingly clear. Its so easy to use and set up the way you want it. Its even better because its USB C Charging what everything is changing to so i have chargers for it everywhere I am.
I couldn't give it a higher review - Except to say my bose are going as a hand me down to a family member.
I almost forgot. I have to say one of my favorite features is the power slide switch. That way you know if its on or off. You don't have to worry about holding down a button and checking for flashing lights like many of the other brands out there.

Love these headphones

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These headphones are amazing! I was amazed at the sound they produce and the noise cancelling is just awesome. I have used lots of other headphones but these are by far my favorite. They have a nice weight but don't feel heavy on my head and they are actually quite comfortable. I can't say enough good things about them, they really are that good.

Great sound and even better noice cancelling

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I typically only like using earbuds since my head is on the smaller side so I wasn’t sure if these headphones would fit properly. I was pleasantly surprised that not only do they fit, but they are also very comfortable.
The noise canceling is perfect! I was wearing the headphones listening to a podcast and my husband was asking me a question sitting next to me and I didn’t know he did I so until he tapped me. As a first time mom of an infant these headphones have come in handy when my baby is sleeping and I can still listen to my music/podcasts and not disturb him.
I can’t wait for my next flight to use these headphones since they are more compact and the case is sturdy.

Solid Fit --- Plus Bells and whistles!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] OK, so the sound quality of my AKG N700s is excellent!! It has one of the most neutral sounds I’ve ever heard, especially as someone whose headphones are a part of my commuter life. The bass is rich, mids are natural, and the bell and whistles are just a nice touch to the set. One of my favorite features in the “talk out” feature where you just press one button and it lowers the sound so you can answer a question or have a sort conversation without removing your headphones. The package also comes with an airplane adapter, microUSB charging cable, a 3.5mm cable, a carrying case ---accessories galore!
I will say, at first I thought they were a bit bulky, but they just take some getting used to. Plus, I prefer the security of the N700s as earbuds tend to fall out of my ears frequently. Also, the noise cancelling feature actually works and doesn’t put pressure on my ears like my last set did. Battery life is GREAT! I lasted almost two days straight on my last flights with this set on one battery charge.

Finally, my biggest game changer is always if the item is worth the price tag — regarding the AKG N700s, even with all the pros and cons, I can say I’m overall impressed with this set and think it was worth the price, which I think reflects its quality. in a nutshell, get these headphones!

Beats Expectations

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was surprised by the long battery capacity - more than 12 hours of continuous use. Love the Ambient to Conversation Toggle feature which works in tandem with Active Noise Cancellation. Planning to travel next week- 10-hour flight. So hoping to test it out more. The package also included an audio input splitter and an Aux converter.
The foldable design makes it easy to carry. It's weird to always hang it on your neck all the time - this design solves it for me.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] First impression of AKG headphones out of the box was WOW! Such a stylish headphones with a sleek finish. Once powered up and synced with my cell phone, the sound and quality was superb to other brands. Crisp sound with great noise cancelling feature gave these headphones a five star rating! I travel a lot for work and being on airplanes everyday, I needed the best noise cancelling and the AKG N700NC gave what I needed. Hours inflight and all I could hear was sound coming from the headphones with minimal amount of outside interference.
I would highly recommend these to anyone that travels often or even the occasional trip. When I used them at the gym it gave me the motivation to keep going without being distracted what others around me.

Absolutely the best headphones ever

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a big head. Especially for a woman. My head is wide from temple to temple so I have never been able to wear over the ear headphones. They always pinched or were too short in the band length to sit comfortably. I also have tiny inner ears so the in the ear don't fir comfortably either. These AKG headphones were perfect right out of the box. Comfortable, no pinching no constant adjusting to sit evenly over both ears. They are buttery soft and I forget I am even wearing them until I realize someone is talking to me and I cant hear them. And the battery life is beyond amazing. I charged them for hte first time last night not because the power was empty - just because I had worn them for 3 to 4 hours for 5 to 6 days and figured surely they needed to be topped off. I love that they seemlessly switch between 2 devices with absolutely no effort. The sound is great. Perfectly balanced both in sound quality and in sound level in each ear. Beyond tickled with the AKG Wireless headphones. I like the compact case - but admit I struggle with getting the headphones to lay flat. I need a picture of the intended storage design, I am a visual person.
