We like:
Sound quality; noise-cancellation; fold-flat design; included hard case; TalkThrough feature
We don't like:

Fantastic headphones with the best noise cancelling we've heard, but at a price. Audio quality is superb and the build quality will withstand the strains of constant use. If you're a frequent traveller who demands the highest audio quality, don't miss these beauties
