  • SoundGuysMay 2025

    A mixed bag now replaced by the ULT Wear; only worth it at a bargain price.

  • DigitFeb 2022

    A bass lover's cheaper option to the XM4 with great battery and app, but ANC and tuning are well behind the flagship. Indian review.

  • Close to an ideal over-ear pair at about Rs 15,000; ANC rated 4.5/5. Indian review.

  • T3Mar 2022

    Blocks distractions well and lasts ages; tuned for upbeat bass-heavy music.
