What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

Battery claims are listing claims: the page states 80 hours and also says a 10-minute charge provides 11 hours, without giving the conditions for those figures. Bluetooth listening, wired operation and supported codecs depend on the connected device and mode. Noise control is described as environmental noise cancellation and active noise damping, but the listing does not clarify whether this means active noise cancellation. The listed control methods name app control, while another listing field also mentions button control.
