    I honestly think the Bose 700 are way better than the QC45s. The QC45s sound worse than the XM3's to me. I have no idea what Bose was thinking.

      Personally, I don’t even like either. The 700 does not even fit my ear. Half of the earcup is on the middle of my ear, the other half is right outside my ear. I prefer the sony over the Bose.

    how would these compare to the Soundcore Space Q45's? I've been looking to get my first set of ANC headphones for awhile now and can't really find the best balance between battery life and decent ANC other than the Q45's and this. I just can't justify spending $300 on a set of headphones atm so under $160 is max for me.

    I have tons of creative stuff and i highly recommend them! They do not perform as what the price would indicate! I own the Sound Blaster Roar Pro and Muvo Play. They are packed full of features and are priced competitively! A pity the company isn't riding the hype they had years before!

    …Me listening with the Creative Zen >> lmao got these with not much research done around it and got it I think late Dec bc was desperate due to neighbor noise to keep me sanity haha, but saw a YT short on it and only now seeing reviews on it bc spent a few days trying to find new ones that maybe have better sound quality to be immersed in games and whatnot also importantly comfort and MOST IMPORTANTLY ANC bc new neighbors moved in so damn quick and it be loud mun. Been trying to see difference of Sony and Bose…then was thinking maybe I should just wait until these someday give out to save and that’s the expedition I’m in pft

Unfortunately these headphones are not sold in india so will stick to my one plus buds and boat headphones I was looking for an upgrade suddenly thought of checking creative website and this pops up had to check it out. Wish this company releases these models in India , the feature packed 40mm ANC at 5k is a killer deal

      @ymmp30 Рік тому

      @@aaronloudnwireless The reason I ask (and BTW it seems others use a recording app as well) is because in some cases at least it might not be giving accurate results. One example: Buds2 Pro. I used the Samsung Recording app and it let in a lot of noise. I was suspicious because I have it set to go into Transparency Mode on calls and it wasn't doing that. Then I left a VM on my second number playing noise in the background. This time IT DID block out the noise.
      So Aaron maybe you want to check this out yourself? And thanks for your great reviews!
