Ear cushions look new and the sound is rich and clear. Saved a ton versus retail. They're a bit heavy for really long sessions but honestly the sound makes up for it.

Case is pretty scuffed like the listing said but the earbuds themselves work great. Comfy and sound great for the price. Feels a little plasticky but I'm not too fussed.

Noise cancelling is superb for something this small. Call quality is clear too. I've used them on the train, at the gym and on calls all week and they've been solid every time. Super happy.
