Whaaaaat?

Where HAVE these been all my life? I was looking for an economical alternative to many AuDHD, ADHD, Autism organisation-endorsed Active Noise Cancelling headphones for ages but during that time the prices were astronomical. As if those of us who suffer from Auditory Overstimulation are all rich or something. I thought, then, well, fine, if they work, maybe I'll splurge maybe about $500 to finally get some relief from NOISE, especially as there is some local construction that will probably be around for the summer, if not even into the autumn. And I'm already losing my mind (noise cancelling earbuds and earplugs not an option for me as I have sensitive eardrums and am susceptible to chronic ear infections).
Then I came across these. For the price I was almost on board, but first I had to look at online reviews, and not just on Best Buy. One site had a reviewer who specifically stated that they bought them for their boyfriend who gets overstimulated and he just loves them. That sold me, and I came back to order a pair at the sale price. Got them today and love them. I might still buy a different pair down the road (maybe the Pro version of these, will have to dig deeper at that time) as the ANC relies on the headphones being connected to a Bluetooth device to work, otherwise it keeps running in Pairing Mode but then shuts the headphones off if it doesn't find anything. There's no way to turn the pairing mode off as it comes on automatically once you power them on. Still, for the times I need to isolate myself, it's a small inconvenience. For now, I simply have the headphones paired to my phone while it's plugged in with Bluetooth access on, while in DND mode. HOWEVER, I haven't tried plugging the 3.5mm cable into anything yet, I suspect that might actually be a solution in lieu of using up battery power on both my phone and the headphones with Bluetooth on. I'd imagine the headphones would stop the pairing mode if the jack is plugged in, right? LOL
Either way, these are finally blocking out months of sounds that have been going right through me and driving my brain insane. Peace and quiet, it's blissful.
Do yourself a favour, though, google for the real manual as the insert included is just a display of icons likely meant for highly tech-savvy folks not reliant on a magnifying glass. Hence the Ease Of Use rating set at THREE stars.
I would recommend this to a friend!
