[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Having thoroughly used and tested my AKG N700NC M2 Wireless Noise-Cancelling Headphones to the best of my ability for over a month now, i can positively state the following: i had absolutely no issues of any kind and were able to make calls, listen when necessary and stream all the music i wished. As for my title, my environment tends to get noisy very often and these headphones were a lifesaver regarding getting peace and quiet on a number of occasions!!! As for the features these headphones provide: Bluetooth pairing was a snap and being that i have 2 cellphones, both Android and pairing with each was easy and the headphones were able to intuitively switch between them. The battery life was tremendous, being able to go almost 24 hours of usage, until needing a charge. The ear cushions and headband are both well padded. I did download the AKG app to both phones, but the headphones work so well, i did not need to use the app much. I most certainly recommend their purchase and i thank you for taking the time to read my review. #AKGHeadphonesInsiders

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had a few other noise cancelling headphones before, but this AKG on/off button was so amazingly clear. On button you can hear your music which cancels out outside noise, Off button you can very clearly hear a person talking to you. Super comfortable on, encases your ear. Love the carrying case for traveling, I know it will be safe in my carry-on with the hard case. Easy to reach/touch for volume and on/off switch. Easily connected to bluetooth.

By far the best

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have worn in ear, on ear, and now over the ear headphones and these are the best so far. I listen to music all the time, while at work, working out at the gym, and working around the yard. Each of these environments has a different set of noise issues. In the office there is lively discussion in the halls, at the gym there is the sounds of all the equipment, and in the yard the noise of yard equipment and traffic. I can report that the noise cancelling capabilities of these headphones does a brilliant job filtering out these noises. Because I wear headphones so long and often comfort is very important. These headphones feel firmly attached/secure to my head without exerting any noticeable or uncomfortable pressure. My ears get hot an sweaty with other headphones, but not these ones. I have a Samsung Galaxy S9 cellphone which I have paired with these headphones and the pairing is excellent. Connecting with all my music services is seamless and when a phone call comes in it is easy to answer with a touch of a button on the headphones. The caller is clear and they report that I too am very clear to them, hands free. The battery life is remarkably long, I well exceed the 8 hour per charge that is expected. The case that is provided with the headphones is a very nice hard shell that protects the headphones well when not in use. These are the best headphones that I have ever owned.

My Best Headphones

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This has been a great upgrade from my Samsung Level On headphones. The build quality, overall sound, and noise cancelation are all great step ups from what I had before. These work great outside of just listening to music like connecting them to my tv so the sound doesn't bother anyone else. I would highly recommend this product for it's great design, portability, and sound quality.

Luxurious Quality and Sound in these Headphones

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The AKG N700NC M2 Headphones are fantastic. I’ve had other high quality headphones over the years, but these outdo everyone of them. The soft comfortable feeling of the ear pads and the sound on these are over the top. They easily paired with my phone within seconds too. I use these mostly while doing chores and housework and they never fall off or feel uncomfortable and they hold a charge for an extremely long time. I highly recommend these and will purchase them for my kids in the future.

Best ANC headphones with long battery life

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Had been using the AKG N700NC M2 for sometime, and have to say, the headphones are awesome. They fit well and cushiony enough that it doesnt hurt the ears even on long use. The memory foam cushions are comfortable.
About the battery, had used it regularly at work, for about 6-7 hours a day, and had to charge it once every 3-4 days, with noise cancelling ON. Battery lasts long enough without having to charge everyday. And also it can be charged using a Type C cable, which helps as I can just carry the charging cable of phone and charge both devices.
Adaptive Noise Cancellation works really well when at work(noisy work environment) and cuts down the sounds and helped a lot with focusing on work or while commuting to and fro.
The Smart Ambient button is conviniently located for easy click. Its awesome to have 2 different features for the Smart Ambient button, have Ambient Aware/TalkThru options which can be used as needed. Ambient Aware lets the audio playback at the same set volume while allowing to hear outside noises when disabled. TalkThru when enabled lets the audio playback volume to go low to be able to have a good conversation with others that are around. Disabling on any of the options triggers the Noise Cancelling to turn ON.
Having an option to connect to two devices is also one of the good features. Able to connect laptop and phone, when connected to laptop and when call is received on phone, the headset automatically switches to the phone to be able to answer the calls on the headset.
Talking about the AKG app that has to be used to change the headphone settings, the app could be better, as the app cuts off text on the right for all screens on Samsung Galaxy S10+. But the app allows setting the Smart Ambient button and turn on Auto OFF settings and also set a custom EQ
The carrying case has nice asthetics and when closed, the pouch looks as a sealed box as the zipper is covered by a leather-like piece. One nice feature of the case itself is that there is a small separator piece that can be used to separate both sides of headphones from scrathing up against each other when stored in the case.
Also, used the headphones on a cross country flight, and the flight adapter works well.
Pros: Battery life Active Noise Cancelling Dual device connectivity
Cons: App buggy headphones need to be folded correctly when placing in case, to not damage the headphones

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I haven't had over the head headphones in a long time however the AKG N700NC M2 Wireless Headphones, BLACK are the best. The cancel out noise, rich back and clear sound. They paired very easily with my Samsung Galaxy Note 9 phone. They fold so they're easy to travel and have a nice case. I use them to take calls and no distortion just clarity. I love the headphones and take them everywhere I go. These are by far the most awesome headphones I have ever used as well as on a frequent basis, like daily, afternoon, nightly.

Very impressed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am not a user of over the head headphones but these changed my mind. I have been using my Samsung earbuds since they came out and wanted to try these to see if they were up to par with my buds. The clarity of the headphones was amazing! Using Bluetooth was a cinch, no problems connecting to my phone or P.C. I tried them with all different types of music genre and found all sounded perfect. Had my son try them on his P.C. while gaming, he really enjoyed them and said that they were just as a good as his gaming headphones. ( He used them wired) The charge lasted, as stated, while using them. I wore them for ruffly 3 hrs. straight and found them to be most comfortable, did not move from position, even while moving. I am Very Impressed with these headphones and will continue to use them. The storage case is sleek and compact. The only issue I had was that the pause/play button should be raised, I could not press it due to having large fingers. It was the only button I could not reach easily. All other buttons are perfectly sized otherwise. I am recommending these headphones to all my friends and family.
