If I can give this headphone more than 5 Stars, I will. I received the package safe and fast I was anxious on how it will perform in comparison to the known brands that not only boast of optimum performance but more than triple the amount this COWIN SE7 cost. I charged it for hours as specified and later turned it on. First I paired the Bluetooth with my iphone and played a song All I could say was WOWWW as the sound was not only crystal but booms like I was in a studio.I later tried it with my Tablet and it paired as well. Perfect is the word to describe my feelings for this headphone. It is comfortable, fits right and covered my ear. the Active Noise cancelling works well, although it will not cancel 100 percent of all the sound around you, but significantly eliminated 90 of them as you will notice when you try flipping the switch onoff. I bought this to use on a plane and I am extremely glad to report that it is serving its purpose amazingly. No more uncomfortable engine sounds which is a huge plus of the ANC . I have already informed my friends and they are placing an order. The headphone is amazingly good. I will try to write another review each quarter to test how long it holds.I am glad.

First let me start by saying I am by no means an expert audiophile.I thoroughly enjoy these Cowin headphones. I mostly use them to connect wirelessly to my computer YouTube and gaming or TV. They are extremely easy to connect to any Bluetooth device and provide great sound quality. The bass is high, but not obnoxious. The controls on the right earcup are easy to use and intuitive. The build quality is solid with plenty of soft padding where it counts. I can wear these headphone easily for hours with zero discomfort.The active noise cancelation ANC works good for the low frequencies of any background noises, although some of the higher pitched sound to come through. The ANC is better then I expected and I cant wait to try them out on a flight to see how much airplane engine noise gets canceled.I would definitely recommend these headphones for anyone looking for an affordable headphone with ANC.

The Cowin SE7 Headphones are a pair of headphones that definitely surpasses its older edition E7 in every category. The SE7 are a very beautiful set of headphones with a nice build, colour, shine and texture. It is very comfortable to wear casually, whether walking or sitting. Its sound is very crisp, delivering clear, high quality audio to your ears with aptX technology. Its noise cancelling technology allows to block most external static background sounds very well, and theres also a mic built in to use in calls without having to take off your headphones. The battery life is also extraordinary for playtime experience. These headphones are perfect for the price you pay for them.

I bought these headphones for my office because my coworker finds it necessary to loudly talk on virtual calls. I turn on the noise canceling and turn up my podcast and I cant hear her. My other office mate bought the same set. I love the color. I purchased the purple and I have never seen a prettier headphone color. They are beautiful. The battery lasts the entire work day. There was a bit of a learning curve with pairing with the included wire my employer has disabled Bluetooth on the computer but it syncs easily with my phone. I hope these headphones last forever because I love them

First, these headphone look great with black and stainless design and flat backs of the ear pieces that swivel for comfort. They are well made, smooth, and sturdy. The skinlike feel of the cups around my ears is so comfortable that I dont notice any weight. The balance is very nice, theres minimal hiss between and beneath the music. I have tested these listening to classical, pop, and instrumental a la The Piano Guys as well as with an audio book. The noise cancellation is exceptional no matter what Im playing. The Bluetooth function is good but limited to about 12 15 feet before they become staticfilled. So perfect for work at my desk or if I have my paired device in a pocket but dont try to wander to the coffee pot. I have gone almost a week on one charge, so the literature says 30 hours and that has been borne out by my experience. I bought these as a Lightning deal and feel like I got amazing value for the investment. Would purchase again, and plan to gift them for Christmas even at normal Prime price.

I was on the lookout for a pair of Bluetooth headphones to use while commuting or when Im out and about. Since this pair would have been used on a bustrainflight most of the time, noise cancellation and isolation was of paramount importance to me, as well as comfort. Of course, the most obvious choice would have been to go with the Bose QuietComfort 35s, but 350 dollars was way, way out of my budget. This pair showed up as highly recommended and well within what I was looking to spend, so I plumped for it, and after using it for a few days, I am mightily impressed. 1. Appearance As soon as I unboxed the headphones, I could see that the company is going for a premium look, and the product itself doesnt disappoint. The look and feel of the headphones is pretty premium to say the least, quite a lot better than similar headphones in the same price range. 2. Easeofuse The controls on the headphones are really easy to grasp. It took me like 5 minutes to get used to, unlike the other pair of bluetooth headphones that I was using before these. Every music control button is on the right ear, which makes it easier to remember. The tactile feedback is pretty good too, so you dont have to fumble for controls while wearing them. 3. Comfort I have worn these headphones for a couple of hours straight, and I was pleased to notice that I didnt feel any discomfort whatsoever. I am a guy with averagesized ears though, so your mileage may vary. 4. Noisecancelling The noisecancelling does take a couple of minutes to warm up, but thats pretty understandable. Once it kicks into full gear, I barely heard a peep. While walking on the sidewalk, the most I could hear was a huge truck rumbling along, which is perfectly acceptable for me. I cant say if it is at par with the more expensive headphones, but this did the job for me. 5. Sound quality I am not an audiophile, not even close, but I felt that the sound compares favourably with the ATHM50s that I ha…

After spending several weeks searching for a reasonable but high quality pair of noise cancelling Bluetooth headphones I decided to give the Cowin SE7 a shot. I am not disappointed. The sound quality is excellent with a focua on bass. I tested them on several different styles of music. They performed well on jazz, blues, classical and rock. I was very happy with the clarity and crisp sound.The noise cancelling is amazing too. I was trying to talk with it on and couldnt heard myself. I normally am used to being able to hear what I say when I have headphones on. This leads to the comfort and quality of the headphones. They are snug, soft and comfortable with a wide range of movement. The can fold into a nice small package as well which is nice. The battery life was another deciding factor for me. The 20 plus hour battery with ANC on is a huge plus. Without it on your battery life can push to 30 hours or longer.Included in the case was several cables and connectors as well was warranty information. The 18 month warranty is very nice to have. Overall for the cost I am extremely happy and highly recommend.

First impressions Beautiful headphones. Not heavy but sturdy. I love the simple minimal design. I love the way these fit over my ears. The sound is great. I mostly listen to classic rock when wearing these. These are my first ever bluetooth headphones so I dont have much to compare them to. Still getting used to not having a cord attached to them but Im not complaining. I wore them while I took my dog for a walk and my ears did get warm but I just assume thats gonna happen when you wear something over your ears while doing a long walk. They feel like good quality headphones. I dont know how much Ill use the case because I use them so frequently but its a nice carrying case.

These were an absolutely amazing investment. Ive used these almost everyday since February. It is currently October. Theyve lasted me a while. The headphones have been put through abuse, Ive dropped them several times. Eventually one of the headphones swivel pice snapped. I fixed it with super glue, so now they are fixed into one location not a huge deal. Eventually I accidentally stepped on them and snapped the other side too. Again, I just super glued them. One concept that I overlooked while buying these is that they get sweaty and smelly. I go to the gym a lot and work with German Shepherds, so they really bad. I usually deep clean them with disinfecting wipes and let them sit there for a while and that tends to fix the problem. Cleaning them so much has made the earpieces pretty bad and started cracking them but this has been recently a couple months later. Im not a huge into audio specs, but compared to other headphones these sound amazing. They are enjoying better with the ANC on. They drown out most of the background noise so you dont have to blast your ears with loud music 247. They are really comfortable to wear, but if you have glasses like me these headphones are going to hurt stick to contacts. I have NEVER experienced any audio problems with these, and the Bluetooth easily reaches from one side of a highschool basketball court to the otherdirect line of sight and obstruction dont hurt it too much. They pair to my phone easily and have always been reliable for me. I plan on buying these again once mine are completely broken Because I know Ill get my moneys worth.

Good product and am overall pleased with the purchase. So I bought these head for the noise canceling abilities which this is where this product shines. The product itself looks well built, comfortable, includes a nice carrying bag and looks sleek. I use these at work to cancel out the noise in my office from the machines and it works well in that sense. As far as the audio output they are good with nice bass and quality. After 2 weeks of heavy use I am surprised how little I have charged the headset, about 12 times a week with using them on and off a few hours each day. The bluetooth range is great I got about 40ft away from my phone. Now for the downsides for me are the buttons and the power switch, this is my biggest fault in the product. The volume button is annoying and I wish there was to separate buttons for the skip track and volume but I have adapted. Also the switch is very small and its easy to jump to bluetooth and noise cancel feature. The power cord and aux cord feel cheap and one more problem I am having is when I move my headset around on my head the audio flickers. Overall I like the headphones they do there job and the buttons I can live with. One more thing the company reached out to me very fast when they heard I had an issue with the product and went out of there way to resolve the issue in a timely manner. It is nice that a company goes out of there way to make sure I am satisfied with my purchase.

Ordered these after some research and pricefeature comparisons. First though, I should mention that I have never really owned over the head headsets with pads this large that can completely cover the ears. However I have tested various similar in the stores. Long and short there is nothing better than the high end Bose for noise cancelling, but at 350 simply not an option for me. The noise cancelling on these for me dont really do it, but I never understood the need once you have the volume up Compared the Beats and other headsets, these are actually pretty decent. In addition, they come with audio connectors, so if the battery dies on you and you have an audio output on your system phone, tablet, laptop you can plug them right in and keep on going. Service I had an issue while using these at the gym where I changed equalizer settings and had crackling sounds and strange control behaviors. I mentioned to the vendor and they did not hesitate to send me another pair to replace the first purchase. Absolutely floored me. So while the first pair might have a problem with the bluetooth, the second did not demonstrate the same issue. Excellent service and support Good base, good volume, long battery life, and the audio connector is a great backup. If you want the best then you will pay for the best. Bottom line, these are perfectly decent for the price.

I really enjoy these headphones. After I had used these for months, I bought a pair of Sony Premium Bluetooth Noise Cancelling headphones, and I ended up returning them because I liked these better. The Sony had a background noise when the noise cancelling was on that I found irritating. I only have 2 complaints. 1. Noise cancelling does not work with the cable. So theyre not great for planes. You are allowed to use short range blue tooth on planes, so you can still pair it with your blue tooth device, but you cant use the in seat entertainment system with these headphones while the noise cancelling is activated. Noise cancelling on planes is the main reason I bought these. 2. The LED on the side is really bright, and the location of it is not ideal to cover with an LED DIM cover. I cut an LED cover and it mostly works, but the cover frequently gets shifted. If I cant sleep at night, I like to put these on, and therefore its important to cover that super bright LED. All that said, I like the sound of these, I like the comfort of these. I take maybe 2 round trip flights a year, and the rest of the time, these are pretty much perfect for my needs. I bought these when Kinja was running a coupon code, so I paid 38 for noise cancelling headphones with decent sound quality.

Ive been reluctant to buy expensive headphones as Ive made do with higher end budget options but my wireless ear buds hurt after an hour of wearing and I needed a pair that blocked out sound better. These did the trick. I was surprised by the quality of sound and material. Noise canceling blocks out white noise but you can still hear your surroundings if need be. Was also excited to find these flashy pink ones. Connection to devices is strong, however as the battery gets lower the connection does weaken. Battery life is great. Ive only charged these once since I got them and use them for 3 hours a day. The mic is suitable but not as clear as just using your phone mic but does well for zoom meetings and quick calls.

I have been using these headphones for a little over a month now and I will say these are an improvement in many ways over the E7 line. They fold up compactly and have a host of gold plated connectors for those who find a use for hard wire connection. Like all Noise Cancelling tech they work great on low frequency noise reduction like what is encountered on a plane. Some street noise from traffic is also effectively tuned out. Dont expect that you wont hear any noise from conversations though they are still working on that. There is little sound leakage even when turned up very high so these are great for travel or not disturbing others around you. One thing I noted about the NC being on it dramatically reduces the clarity of your music playback. No surprise here since the NC feature is actively trying to tune out unwanted noise The bass takes a hit as well as the clarity of vocals when engaged. Turn it off though and these have punch. I have also owned a pair of E7 Pro as well as the E7 both got stolen, otherwise I would probably not upgraded and these have as deep if not better bass than the E7 Pro much improved drivers over the regular E7.A couple other things to note the earpads are easily removed which leads me to believe you can renew them with new pads also a more sleek form factor less like the round DJ style cans and more oval with the collapsing headband. I like that feature it feels high quality too a positive click when open and stainless steel band keeps it in place without too much pressure on your head.I will say overall I am happy with Cowin products and service. I will be buying a similar pair to replace my wifes headset. I did receive this set as a promotion by the company for any who are concerned about incentives however the first three headphone purchases were purely because we liked the product. I consider them a nice midrange brand with a better than average quality in sound. Just how long does the battery last Ive been using them off and on for a month now and never charged them except the first time they say 50 hours I think I believe it.

UPDATE I loved these so much I purchased a pair for the Mr but after less than a year of sporatic use the left ear piece on mine started intermittently lossing volume becoming muffled or what sounded like background static without using the NC feature. Thankfully I registered for the additional 6 month warranty online after purchase but when I tried to login to my account it said my email could not be found despite the confirmation email after registering continued emails offering discounts. Ive always stored them in the matching case purchased with the headphones have written the support team so Ill update my review after finding out how they handle a quality issue. ORIGINAL I had to pick these up when my Bose ate dust only a week before our international trip with 24 hours of travelling. Due to extreme ear pain when I fly I use airplane ears so Ive got to have overear headphones that dont press down on the plugs while they are in. These are AMAZING for the price Im honestly shocked at how well they work compared to my Bose, I was talking too low for anyone to hear me on the plane because I didnt want to shout..I could hear everyone talking to me with no background noise at all, upon taking them off its a shock to the system when you hear how loud the planes engines and airflow really are There would probably be a difference in an office type setting with all the different frequencies the noise cancellation cant take care of at once, but for things like air travel Id say these are the BEST DEAL ON THE MARKET I tried them out after they arrived and found that they cut out the background fuzz of traffic and everyday sounds but I could hear voices perfectly which is a plus, then on our flight I switched the bluetooth off and on again every few hours to hear the difference…it was staggering I even made my boyfriend try them on and switched it on and off again, he was so impressed that Ive no purchased a set for him as well. Tip Be sure that they are snug on your head and ears if your travelling, it makes a difference in the amount of noise that is cancelled. If there is a gap or the earpads arent in full contact with your head youll hear a lot more. What I LOVE They are extremly comfortable and I was rather suprised that they dont get hot. The noise cancellation is AMAZING for this price point and comparable to my Bose The battery life is out of this world. I flew for 24 hours with them in constant use and only had to recharge once we arrived The ability to flip the ear cups inwards makes them perfect for travel and sliding in and out of the case. They are estetically pleasing and dont stand out against black travel wardrobes. The chrome is well done and feels solid, I think they will last for a few years without any issues The only small negatives The size makes it difficult for someone with a smaller frame to comfortably wear them down around your neck, but this is to be expected with large over ear headphones and isnt something that would prevent me from recommending them It can be difficult to find the offbluetoothnoise cancelling switch on the very bottom of the Right ear cup. My hand always ends up along the bottom of the outter area below the silver switch but Ive learned to adjust and move my hand down to find the switch so it just takes some practice. The ear cup pads did stain with a bit of makeup during our travels but most of it came off when cleaned so its no big deal. I noticed a slight amount of pressure when wearing them. This is only when using the noise cancellation but its not enough to be uncomfortable and isnt something I felt until many hours in. I did suffer from virtigo the entire week we were in Prague, and for a few days once home but there is no way for me to tell if this is from the noise cancellation or simply time difference fatigue.

Overall I am well pleased with my purchase. I bought these headphones for work and I didnt want to break the bank just in case they disappeared.The noise cancellation is very good, the audio performance is impressive for the money, the build quality is good, and they look great Oh, and did I mention theyre comfy I was pleasantly surprised by how comfortable are. I have only good things to say about them.Overall these headphones are excellent value.I have a pair of Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro headphones I use at home and theyre what I am using as a base reference to compare these. Obviously a 100 pair of headphones wont compete when it comes to sound quality, but still, theyre pretty decent. Overall Im really happy with them.

I bought these Cowin SE7 on a lighning deal for under 120.00. For the price they are very nice and very comfortable on my large head. Tone quality is good if like bass. Mid toness are somewhat muted. Treble is good. Controls are nicely laid out and are labeled. Great battery life with a replaceable battery. Paired very easy with my Samsung tablet. There was no noticeable delay when watching movies with people talking. The ANC noise control works fair at best. My main complaint is the bass tones are way over emphisized. Listening to vocals voices were very muted. They look great and are soo comfortable I also tested the Bluedio Tubine T4 head phones on another lightning deal for under 40.00. These headphones were not as comfortable to wear and had a odd design. Tone quality was very good with great bass, midtones and treble. Control layout was not good. None of the buttons are labeled, you need the instruction book to figure out what button controls what. The ANC worked fair, but the button to turn it on was stiff. There was no noticeable delay for voices when watching movies. The headphone volume was higher than the Cowin also the Bluedio use the new type C connector for both charging and for wired headphone use So dont loose the cable Both headphones for the price are great. Its a matter personal taste. The Cowin have the best comfort and control layout and looks, but have way to much bass bias for me. The Bluedio comfort is good, but has a odd control layout with no labels on any of the control buttons. The tone qualty is superior with a smooth even sound. The type C USB connector is a negative to me. You need this even to use as a wired headphone. The looks of these headphines reminds me of the old Ham Radio headphones. Some people may like this retro look, but the way the pads are hinged it is hard to get it to fit your ear for a comfortable fit and needs a redesign. Also please label the control buttons like all other mfg that make headphones do.

I bought these to compare to a pair of Sennheiser HD 4.50 headphones I bought for my girlfriend last year. At half the price they are a fantastic value. The quality of music is pretty spot on and not lacking for my purposes. The noise cancellation is good. Not as good as the Sennheiser, but good enough that when I turned it off I realized just how much it blocked. For comparison, with the Sennheisers I couldnt hear a conversation happening behind me. With the Cowins, I could hear it. But for my need its more than enough. It blocks out my air purifier, air conditioner, and quite a bit of my lawn mover and leaf blower. It makes me feel safer than a total noise blackout especially when Im working outside and might need to hear something.Battery life has been great for me so far, no complaints there.

First of all look how cute I am I mean… Look how cute these are I received these headphones for Christmas specifically because of the color, but I am SO impressed with all of the amazing features. One of the biggest things I needed them for was because of the noise canceling. I can sit right next to my boyfriend laughing his ass off for one of his shows on normalhigh volume and barely hear it even without anything playing. If Im listening to music its like nothing else makes sound. The cushions are comfortable. The microphone is crystal clear. The Bluetooth connectivity is fast and easy. The controls are simple. And the crispness of the sound that comes out really gives me goosebumps sometimes. I have worn Beats by Dr Dre before and honestly these are on par with that brand. If youre hesitant, dont be. I NEVER write reviews and I just had to put it out there. You will not be disappointed.

I wanted some new headphones for the hours I spend in the library that would help block out noise, and also help me study at home and for the gym. Im very happy with these, but they arent perfect. Pros Long battery life. Many other models I looked at had 12 hours or less 78 seemed very common. The battery for these is advertised around 30 hours, and I think thats accurate. I wouldnt enjoy charging another device every 2 days so this was important to me. They sound great. There is some slight compression to the sound which is unavoidable due to the digital format, but you adjust really quickly, and beyond that they sound crystal clear. They are generally comfortable and stay on my head even when Im walking through the city or moving around my house. After going cordless, its very hard to go back to my wired earbuds. Sync quickly to a variety of devices, including my Android phone, a 5th gen iPod Touch, and my Nexus 7 tablet. Neutral This will be an issue with any headband style, but I wear earrings frequently and some styles are not comfortable with these after use throughout the day. They dont fold up and Im worried theyll get damaged if I put them in a bag, so I usually wear them around my neck if Im not listening to them. Will not matter to some, will be a big deal to others. Cons The noise canceling setting doesnt work the way youd expect it to. Ive used much more expensive noisecancelling headphones which block out all noise Im talking, dead silence on an airplane, midflight and the difference is barely noticeable with these. I experimented with it while another household member played music in the kitchen and I was 20 feet away, I could still hear her music while playing my own in noisecanceling mode. Not a big deal for me, since they do a good job of blocking out sound by design, but DO NOT buy these if you are expecting dead silence on a train. The buttons on the side of the right headphone double for volume and track changing, but volume changes are long presses and track changes are short presses. This is completely unintuitive, because Im far more likely to be adjusting volume than switching tracks, especially if Im listening to a podcast. The buttons are also very sensitive and at fist, you may skip a song while adjusting them for comfort. You get used to it, though. Overall, Im very happy with these. Im on foot a lot in a city and studying long hours, and these headphones meet my needs very well. A few minor gripes in design and theyd be 5 stars, but for the price I paid on a lightening deal, Im not complaining. EDIT I had previously written the battery didnt give any indication they were dying, but after using them more, this is not accurate. They do die somewhat abruptly, the sound starts dipping out to indicate they are low on power, but its a 2030 minute notice on a 30 hour battery. So, you may still find yourself out for the day with no charge. The battery lasts so long, though, that its relatively minor.

HI, IM BRIAN CAMPBELL WITH OLD MAN NEW TECH. I do reviews on budget electronics from a Generation Xers perspective.Why To save you moneyOkay, so at Old Man New Tech weve gotten our share of budget headphones and with my continued effort to get the best in Wireless stuff, I wanted to get another set of Bluetooth headphones for my home. Now about a month ago I went on to Amazon and after a little research, I honed in on these sexy little beauties…the Cowin SE7 Active Noise Cancelling Headphones. Theyre an Amazons Choice selection which means that they are not only popular, but highly rated. So, I plopped down 88 bucks and with Amazon Prime, they showed up at my door in a couple of days.Now Cowin claimsSuper comfort and foldableLow latencyUnsurpassed SoundUp to 50 hours of playtime.So lets see if Cowin delivers on their promises. You remember, I did an in depth review of Cowins earbuds a few months back and really liked them so my expectations are high going in. And Im really REALLY a big fan of NOT plopping 250 on Sonys, or 300 on Bose headphones when there are perfectly great alternatives out there for a third of the price.SO LETS DIVE INUNBOXING Pretty straightforward, classy flat black boxing with silver lettering. Support information and social deets on the back. Nice tight fit. Opening it up heres a UNICEF card Oh cool, looks like this video will get a dollar donated to UNICEF kids. Heres the Cowin VIP card, impress your friends, get in to secret clubs, more important extend your warranty for 18 months and get in line for new cool stuff. A note from Bill Cowin, yes thats an actual guy. Finally heres our User Guide.CONTENTS Okay first thing I notice is the case. A fine Corinthian leather. BTW, I love it when a case is included. Take note electronics companies Inside the case youll find the a classy accessory bag with 3.5 mm jack, a 6.5 mm adapter, a microUSB charging cable cmon Cowin, no USBC and an airline headphone adapter. Finally, we have the headphones.FIRST IMPRESSIONS Visually, the Cowin SE7 ANC Headphones have a clean minimalist look to them with a black matte finish. They will not show fingerprints. Theyve got a fair amount of what they call protein padding. Not sure if you can eat it, but theyre about as close to memory foam as you can get so theyre very comfortable with lots of padding on the headband too. The articulation on these headphones is pretty great too. The headband is flexible and the earcups also rotate to give you unlimited fitting options for your skull. The headband is also expandable. The Active Noise Cancelling button is easy to find with Volume updown, powerpairing button in the middle. Audio jack below that, followed by the USB charging port. Easy peasy.FIT The Cowin SE7s have a comfortable yet firm fit and once on, they stay in place. These are cushy and I can wear them for hours which is cool because they can last the distance.PAIRING The pairing happens when you press the power button for a few seconds. Its quick and easy, showing up as SE7 in your Bluetooth settings on both Android and iOS.PERFORMANCE As an online reviewer, Ive tried a few different types of ANC headphones. A few of the budget headphones that Ive reviewed put out a slight white noise when you activate the Active Noise Cancelling. Not so with the Cowin SE7s. Once you turn it on, the background noise disappears and its silence. Very comparable to the Sonys and Bose headphones. I found the sound to be rich with clear crisp highs and throaty Bowie lows. Midrange was a little mushy with the ANC on, but barely noticeable. Real 90db quality sound. Phone calls are made by tapping the power button when the phone rings. Pretty easy. Call quality is good and the microphone sounded good to the caller on the other end.The battery life claims to be 50hrs. Im sorry to say that I never ran the battery out. I mean I was using them for a week with ANC on at about half volume. Theyre still going strong but true confession, Im not timing it because the variance depends on how loud you go and the ANC.Now I synced them with my Firestick to check for latency issues and the Bluetooth 5.0 combined with Cowins aptX technology translated to ZERO or unnoticeable latency so no lagging in the video and sound. Doesnt seem like a big deal but if youve tried budget sets, it can be an annoyance when you want to watch a movie and the audio is even a half second behind.FINAL IMPRESSIONSWell, what can I say, theyve got a solid design, theyre comfortable, theyve got a great battery life, music sounds great, movies sound fantastic, and the active noise cancellation is top notch. My only quibble, and its a minor one, is that I really hope that Cowin migrates to USBC charging. Again, its a minor thing and what I call first world problems. Overall, Ive got to give the Cowin SE7 Active Noise Cancelling Headphones a BIG thumbs up.Tune in to Old Man New Tech on YouTube for your …

Purchased this pair of Cowin se7 headphones to use with new 4k tv. I was also interested in how these headphones would compare to my standby motorola S805 bluetooth DJ headphones. 1. Sound quality I have determined that the Cowin SE7 BTHs are a step up vs my Motorola S805, in both sound quality and available volume. 2. Comfort Both headphones use very similar ear cup materials, except the Cowins are shaped in a oval as opposed to a round configuration as on the S805. The fit of the SE7s are superior to that of the S805, better seal overall. My head anyway. 3. Build quality the design pattern is quite similar to that of the 805s. This is great as my 805s have been serving my needs for a very long time. 3. Controls I have found that the Cowin SE7 controls are superior to that of the S805. Never liked the input controls on the S805. Synopsis so far I am pleased with my purchase. MTBF and overall durability TBD. I would recommend this product and have done so.
P.B. –
I needed headphones for my nowremote work and school household, and for listening to audio books, and drowning out construction noises around me, so I started doing research and I agonized over all options There are so many choices and price points. You can easily spend anywhere from 20500, and with a little research I could find equally good and bad reviews for any of them. I finally made the decision to buy these based on good reviews about the microphone, and a good sale price that brought these higherpriced set of headphones down to an affordable level for my budget. AND IM SO GLAD I DID We had 2 wireless headphones at our house already a cheap inear style that frankly is just garbage, and a highend Sony overtheear noise cancelling type like these but much more expensive. So thats what Im comparing these to. And this pair is SO GOOD Heres what you should knowPROS Sound quality is great Note Im not an audiophile, but I do care about quality sound in general, and these are clear, crisp, lovely for anything from audiobooks to music. Just great. Bluetooth range is so much better than our Sony headphones. My phones battery was low, so had to plug it in and with an audio book that always worries me because it generally means Ill get spotty connection as I wonder around the house doing chores but not with these We have a large house, and I walked all over all 3 floors while my phone stayed on the 2nd floor plugged in. Never lost connection its so seamless. Controls on the headset work great. Super easy to use, easy to feel for the right buttons while wearing and adjust to your needs. Pause the book, turn up or down the volume, turn on or off noise cancelling. Easy. And the noise cancelling is awesome Like I said, we are under construction, while I try to work from home, and my kid is doing school from home. Its a nightmare trying to hold a conversation, let alone have any focus, with multiple zoom calls, and a nail gun going off in the background. Id been using the Sonys for this purpose, but I have to say that the Cowin wins here too Today was a much easier workday thanks to these Color Beautiful. As mentioned we have a Sony set theyre my husbands and I wanted to be able to quickly and easily be able to tell which are his and which are mine. So his are black, and mine are teal. CheckCONS Another reviewer mentioned a sharp pinch point, and sure enough, as soon as I took them out of the box I pinched my finger in the joint. But really, now Im more careful and its a nonissue. that is the only criticism I can give so far reallyUNKNOWN I havent had a chance to test the microphone on a call yet, but multiple people have given the mic good reviews here, so Im not worried. If theres a problem, Ill update this review.SUMMARY Save yourself the agony I went through and get these. You can thank me later.

These are easily the best headphones Ive ever had. In terms of battery life, nothing compares. I charged them fully for the first time two days ago and I have been using them about 7 hours every day while still having more than 70 battery remaining, according to my iPad. In short, the battery life on these is exceptional. The comfort of these headphones is also beyond expression. I have largerthanaverage ears, but that hasnt made these uncomfortable at all. I usually take them off around once every hour for a few minutes, but I can honestly say that you dont really feel them while you listen to music. Speaking of music, the sound quality of these is excellent. I wasnt shopping for highend headphones, but the sound from these honestly rivals some of the lowerend expensive headphones Ive tried. The noisecancellation is very highquality. I have even missed my own name being called while wearing these There are only three things I dont like about these headphones. For one thing, the controls on the side seem to be upsidedown. I feel like the skip trackincrease volume button should be on top, but it ended on the bottom, but it doesnt take much to get used to it. Aside from that, the swiveling ear cups swivel toward the wearer. My old headphones swiveled away and that made it easy to place them down on the ear pads. Finally, the cord extends from the right ear cup even though the headphone port on most computers lies on the left of the machine. 910 would buy again.

This is my second set of these after I got tired of over spending on Bose headphones. The first pair I got a year ago are they still going strong and this second pair was for my wife. I love these things. My wife loves these things. They are easy to use, the rechargable battery lasts a very long time, and the sound quality is excellent as is the noise cancellation. I dont really use them for phone calls, so I cannot address the microphone. Best of all, I feel like I have compromised nothing by switching from Bose and I dont feel screwed like I do when I buy Bose stuff. I may start gifting these things I like them so much and I want to support a company like this.

This products ideal user is someone who is looking for a pair of good quality wireless headphones and is willing to pay for this quality. As someone who uses these headphones a lot, the things I look for are comfort, ease of maintenance, and battery life, as well as sound quality. Comfort These headphones are light for their size, so they dont cause discomfort on the ears when worn. As well, the ear cups are made out of quality material that is soft and cleans easily. The headband over the top is lightly padded so while not bulky it is still comfortable to wear these headphones for long periods of time. I use these headphones while working on the computer or while traveling. In both situations I can leave them on for long periods of time without having the headphones annoy or bother me. Maintenance Cleaning these headphones is very easy and requires only a damp rag. The ear cups are leather so there is no concern with particles becoming trapped in them, unlike cloth ear cups. I dont find that these headphones pick up fingerprints that easily, but when they do a cleaning cloth or rag does the trick. A big part of maintenance is charging headphones, since these are wireless. The charger is of good quality both charging efficiently and fitting properly. Some wireless headphones that I have owned in the past have had poorly made chargers which greatly hinders the charging process. Battery Life I consistently use these headphones for multiple hours at a time on bus rides or at home while doing housework. I have never had a problem with them dying when I needed them and have sometimes gone 23 days without charging. I would recommend charging them every other night, depending on how much you use them. Sound quality The main component people are looking for in headphones is sound quality as there is a big difference between cheap headphones and expensive ones. These headphones sound crisp and have a very good base range. In headphones you get what you pay for, so while these arent cheap headphones there are certainly better headphones if youre willing to pay more. They also provide very good sound cancelling. Issues The main problems I had with these headphones were some of the buttons take some getting used to so I would recommend managing volume and skipping songs on your device. Overall a very solid set of headphones for the price you are paying for them. I would recommend them to someone who is used to wearing headphones and is looking to get a decent pair that is wireless.

I love everything about these headphones. The sound is amazing. Theyre super comfortable, and this is coming from someone who has ears pretending to be delicate flowers. I HATE wearing overear headphones most of the time. Basically all of them, actually, except these. I can wear them for HOURS, and I have no problems. When turned on, the noise cancellation is splendid. I tend not to use it, just because I wear them at work most of the time, and I want to know if someone is trying to talk to me, but it does work really well when I want to tune out the world. These have a splendid battery, and Im actually shocked at how good the play time is. Theyre not kidding about 30 hours. I highly recommend these. Youll be pleased.

Needed new headphones to work on music for church. Since I do the music from home then take it to the church and my much older pair of headphones finally bit the dust I opted for the COWIN SE7 Noise Canceling over the ear wirelessbluetooth headset. I absolutely love that it gives me freedom to move around the house as I listen to the music. As well as cancel out the TV that my husband happens to be watching at the same time. My ears are very sensitive to sound hyper hearing I needed something that would shut out some of the background noise and it does that. I can also pair it with so many devices my cell phone TV and laptop not at the same time . I opted for the GOLD headset because GOLD is my favorite color. They are just beautiful. Looking forward to using them on an upcoming flight to see how well they work on shutting out the noise on an airplane. Also Im looking forward to going to the movie theater which we havent done in a long time due to my ears being so hypersensitive and movie theaters are so loud. I want to try and see if it makes a difference which i realize wont shut out all the loudness of the theater but hopefully will help mute it some. It came with the cord and a beautiful sleeve to store the cords and adapter in, a beautiful case which protects the headset well instruction book but I did go online and look at a more extensive instruction manual for it as well and it was packaged nicely and was shipped nice and protected. I charged it the day I received it which was about a week ago and have not had to recharge them yet. I love that if I choose to switch from one electronic to another it pairs automatically without me having to go out and try and do it manually. Overall I say Id definitely buy again and would definitely recommend. If you are looking for a great headset without a lot of then yes Id recommend the COWIN SE7. It comes in other colors so why buy just black Everyone has a black pair put a little color in your life

I bought these after reading a lot of reviews on these and other similar headphones. The noise cancelling is the best Ive ever had I use these to help me concentrate while doing schoolwork or working on a work project. The earpieces are very soft and I can wear them for hours at a time with no discomfort at all. It connects easily to all my devices and works great for phone calls as well. Really great sound quality and the volume goes pretty high for those who like to listen to music LOUD lol. These easily sound like a 200 pair of headphones at a 13 of the price It was also packaged very nicely. Mine came with a travel case, charging cord, an exterior plugin cord if you dont or cant use the Bluetooth feature to connect to your device. I registered mine for the warranty, and even their website is impressive. They really care about producing a quality product, and they care about their customers as well. Great product from a great company. Thats very hard to find these days…

I bought the COWIN E7 headphones two years mainly for when Im traveling ago and have been very happy with them. Theyre starting to get worn around the ear pads so now I just have them when workingmowing. I replaced them with the SE7 a couple of months ago and Im even more impressed with these. Same great sound, controls are a little easier now, and they just look better on the E7s were a little bulky. Are there better ones out there Im sure, but they cost two or three times more, and I cant see where the difference in sound would be that much better. Also, lately Ive noticed that people with the Bose or Sony headphones are approached more around airports for change, rides, etc.Again, I believe that these Cowin SE7 are easily worth the 100 cost and hope to keep them for a couple of years.

Bought them for my 14 yr for use at school. He has LDs so uses a lot of technology. These bluetooth noise cancelling headphones give him the sensory protection as well as great sound quality for when he listens to audio. They are very comfortable over the ears and light weight. We havent had any issues with battery life but we usually charge them every day after school. We have forgotten a couple times and the battery still lasted through the second day. They have an attachment to make them corded if needed as well. Overall we love these headphones and would definitely buy them again. Very reasonable price for the excellent quality.

I bought these to use primarily during my bus rides to school. You dont always need the NC turned on, and when not using it, Ive found the battery to last 5 months. When using NC regularly, it will last about a week.I bought my headphones in June of 2019 and the charge port stopped working in July of 2020. When I contacted customer service, they asked for photo proof, and after that, send me a free pair I didnt even have to return the old ones. Im not surprised it was worn, as I use my headphones roughly. Because of the prompt and beyondsatisfactory customer service, I will be a loyal customer to the brand.Also, most of the headphones come in a bunch of cool colors. These ones happen to match my school backpack perfectly.Ear comfort is very good, although they start to hurt the tips of my ears after about 45 minutes of constant use. If you have big ears, this may be a problem for you. In terms of loudness, I never have to use max volume. 80 volume is loud enough. Its not good for phone calls, I will switch to my phone when talking with someone.All in all, these are worth the money. The quality is stellar, the price is perfect, and customer service is is easy and hassle free.

Im officeing with my husband who is on conference calls throughout the day and needed a pair of noise cancelling headphones. I found these headphones on a list when searching for best office headphones. They were at least half the price of all of the others listed. They arrived early and in premium packaging. They are lightweight with super soft leather around the ears which makes them extremely comfortable. They hold a charge for several days, connect to bluetooth seamlessly, and have great sound quality. Please note They are more noise minimizing rather than noise cancelling. This is fine for me since I listen to soft background music anyway when in our office. Overall, I highly recommend these headphones for the quality vs. the price.

When there were distribution delays with the green color I chose, the company reached out to offer another color or the option to wait, and when the chosen color became available again a couple days later, shipping was expedited to me and I had them sooner than expected. The color is more turquoise than I expected looking more forest green on the screen which was a lovely surprise. They feel luxurious padded, slightly weighty compared to cheap headsets and the case keeps them protected. The sound is pretty excellent but Im not much of an audio snob. My only difficulty was when trying to wear them at an awkward angle so I could hear people talking in the room and I was bending over and looking up etc. and they werent staying put very well. When theyre positioned properly over my ears, they stay fine and are comfortable. Slightly warmsquished feeling on my ears after a couple hours of use but Im sure that cant be helped Happy with my purchase
P.H. –
It came in fully charged so right then and there you were able to test it out. I charge it through the night even though it doesnt take long to charge at all. Definitely lasts longer than expected so thats a PLUS for me. I use it every day because I cant just get enough of how good it sounds. The noise cancellation works so well I couldnt even hear my roommate start up his motorcycle in the garage and that thing is loud. The bass is just so perfect I absolutely love it because you can feel a little rattle when it hits. Not to mention its just so comfortable, I even use them when I play basketball and they dont come off. And if youre a gamer they also work really good for that too. If you dont wanna spend a lot of money on a REALLY GOOD pair of headphones I highly recommend these. 10 OUT OF 10 Good job guys

Ive been a COWIN customer for the past 3 years and I regret that I wasnt a customer earlier. My first set was the COWIN E7 Pro NoiseCancelling and I still use them when I work out. But I had some extra from my recent bonus and decided to upgrade the headset I use when Im working and studying allday during these pandemic days. The COWIN SE7 transitions seamlessly from my computer tablet. It has GREAT battery life, averaging at LEAST 30 hours of noisecancelling bluetooth playing I charged it because it was at 20, per the Windows indicator. Great audio quality and really hits the base hard even with my country music. One of the more underrated qualities is their comfortability. They fit so comfortably over my scalp and ears, I can leave them on for hours and not notice that theyre still there. The range is pretty impressive. Im able to cook in my kitchen while having them synced to my tablet without any disturbance to the playback. The quality that youre receiving for an

Oh man, where do I start First, these headphone do, in fact, last up to thirty hours on a full charge. I didnt keep track, but I only charge it a couple times a week, and Im using these headphones for several hours a day. Honestly, I wore these babies for ten hours one day when I was writing, and I never got sick of wearing them. They are incredibly comfortable, keep a lot of the noise out by themselves, and the sound clarity is awesome. Everything is rich, and while the bass isnt super punchy, you can feel it. There are many songs that I feel like Im listening to for the first time, because there are parts that I never noticed until I listened with these headphones. Its cheeky, but Im not kidding. Pairing is a snap with these, and I love the tone used to signal when you turn it onoff and pair it to your device. It isnt the annoying and loud voice Ive been shocked with on some headsets, but instead its a simple tone. The build quality is luxurious, and the pads are nice and soft. One issue some bring up is the Active NoiseCancelling setting on these headphones. Yes, it reduces the quality of your music to have a more tin like sound, and the music loses a lot of the richness Id mentioned before. However, the setting does help if youre in a loud cafe, or in some kind of area where theres a lot of background noise. I found, when using the setting, that it removed a lot of the whitenoise in the background AC units, vents, clinking, etc. Its a helpful feature to have, though the pads do a fairly good job of isolating yourself, so I dont have to use it too often. I do have one complain with these, and that is the button controls. Im used to pressing the volume buttons once to change the volume, but on these headphones pressing it once switches the song. You have to press and hold to adjust the volume, which can lead to accidentally switching songs. I bought these on a lightning sale, but I promise theyre worth full price. They are, by far, the best headphones Ive ever used. If mine ever wear out, Im picking up another of these.

Theyre comfortable and the ANC is quite good. Buttons could use some work, but theyre usable. ANC stays on even if you turn the headphones off and can drain battery, but thats how most of the ANC headphones work it seems. Sound quality is good for a headphone in this price range, and with ANC on it still sounds pretty good. These will make noisy environments with droning lowpitched noises like large engines almost nonexistent. The 3.5mm jack is convenient if you carry devices without bluetooth. I was hoping I could use both audio sources at the same time to listen to music from my phone over bluetooth while playing a Nintendo Switch, but wasnt too disappointed since I figured thatd be the case. The bluetooth module shuts down when you plug the analog jack in, and seems to save battery. You can keep ANC on with the 3.5mm jack though. They perform surprisingly well, and Ill continue to use them while traveling, but still prefer other headphones for an athome listening experience.

Got this on a flash sale, so the price was great. Two small things I do not like about this headset First, The grey triangle on the right earphone is plastic and feels cheap, like its not fully connected. Second, and this is really annoying, to skip tracks youre listening to, you press the triangle up or down. Thats cool. To turn the volume up or down you press AND HOLD the triangle up or down. Cool idea, but bad in practice because heres what happens…. new song comes on, you want to rock out, so you go to adjust the volume, but youre walking and your finger slips off the triangle, and instead of the volume adjusting, the song skips to the next song. Then you want to go back, so you mash the back button and it turns down the volume, then you remember you just need to tap the back button, so you tap it, and it takes you back to the start of the song you skipped forward to, so you tap it again, and it takes you back to the song you skipped to, so then you hit back, back, and it may take you back to the rock out song, or the one previous. OR, you want to adjust the fit of your headphones and you mindlessly use your right hand and accidentally hit the triangle. Oops. Either your skipping your track or starting it over, rather than just having a minor volume adjustment Would prefer the skipping option require a more deliberate action than just pressing the triangle once. But they sound great, the noise cancel option is great works fantastic on planes, and they are a great price.

The Cowin SE7 Active Noise Cancelling Bluetooth Headphones They are easy to adjust, they are comfortable, appearance, they look good. The Cowin SE7 were broken in with JLabs burn in audio file at moderate volume, 11 days 5 hrs. Each day. Equipment used, An Acer 6510BD DLP Projector, 100 projection Screen, Samsung Blue ray Disc Player, witth a coaxal digital output connected to a Home Spot Blue tooth Transmitter with a coaxal input. Movie watched Blue Ray U571. Have to give a little plug for , DLP Projector, Projection Screen, Blue tooth Transmitter,, and Cowin SE7 all obtained from . The explosions during the depth charge scenes just shy of amazing. When the U.S. sub gets torpedoed,the punch from the bass is outstanding, Machine gun fire whirling around the Cowins is very desirable, Vocals and musical scores are clean and precise, listening to the sub hit the waves sounds like you were actually there, The sounds of explosions are excellent. U571 is a good test for Headphones. The Cowin SE7 would be a great asset to anyones home theater or even just listening to music or a movie on the computer.

See edit below I purchased these headphones to 1. Block out the construction noise right outside my window… 2. Replace my current, well used, bluetooth headphones Pros Comfortable on my ears Blocked about 95 of the construction noise, other peoples conversations on the busses, and general unwated noise pollution Amazing battery life Literally used it from 730am 800pm because… noise. Sound quality Since Im not particularly and audiophile, I wasnt looking to hear everything but for me the quality was fantastic Because I did end up hearing everything of whatever I was playing from music to podcasts. Cons Loose speakers or something in the headphones, making a rattling sound at the slightest movement. That could range from going over a tiny TINY bump on the road, to my every single step. Since I walk about 2 miles every day, thats a lot of rattling. Horrible mic. Over the past 3 weeks I tested the mic in my office, walking tofrom my office, at home, on the bus, in the city, and out in the country. No matter where I was, the time of day, or the weather clear sunny sky, or pouring rain, I couldnt be heard. Aux cable doesnt include separate mic Why did I wait so long 1. The noise pollution outside of my window drove me insane. Its calmed down quite a bit so the URGENT need for these is gone. However, I will be ordering a different pair ASAP. 2. I wanted to see if I could just live with the mic being terrible and the rattling noises in the headphones. Note, these two cons were an issue from the get go but because I desperately needed to cancel the noise from right outside of my window, I decided to bare with it. Now that its somewhat bareable, these issues have become annoying. I would recommend this product if you dont intend to use the mic and if you just sit still with the headphones. Its possible I got a lemon, but those were my issues and because of the fact that the Aux cable doesnt have a mic and come to think of it the headphones dont have phone controls, it doesnt really suit all of my needs. Again, this was a desprate purchase so Id have probably passed on them if I read the description better. I liked the sound quality, though, so Ill be going through their products to see if they have something that checks off all of what I need EDIT So, I didnt realize that Cowin had responded to my review until literally today. However, they did send me a replacement headset in like 2 days which was AMAZING For that alone, this gets one more star. With the set they sent me, the rattling is barely there and it does take a rickety bus to make them move around in the earpieces. Unfortunately, the mic is still poor in quality. Ive asked several people, in several locations how I sounded and each said I sounded muddy at my normal speaking level. In order to be heard somewhat clearly, I have to yell which doesnt necessarily work when youre in a crowded place, and worse, when in transit. Still, I love the sound and have actually seen a number of people walking around with them.

Great value for the price. I bought them on black friday with a 30 off coupon, so it was 40 for the noise canceling headphones. The first thing I noticed is that they are packaged pretty well. Its a slick box and a nice pleather carrying case. When I took them out of the box, I did notice that the ear muff part pivots pretty loosely. It doesnt really have any tightness in the adjusting of the angel of the ear phone part, so I worry if theyll be good long term. I guess as long as you are careful, you probably wont twist it too much and break. The updown sliding to adjust for head size is pretty tight and holds the size well. I recommend also purchasing the Cowin made hard case to carry them. Im not sure if the pleather case would be good with how loose the joint is for the ear pivoting part. The sound wo the active noise canceling is pretty good. The bass is pretty strong and i feel like the sound is already pretty isolated because of the ear coverings. Once you turn on the active noise canceling, the sound feels thinner w lighter bass, but the noise cancellation is really good. I purchased these mainly for air travel, so I think itll be good for the droning of the plane.

Okay a little context Im a college student who works in a lab, which means a good 12 hours of my day Im either doing neuroscience stuff or studying both activities which are WAY better with headphones. I basically live in these, and they are AMAZING I cannot speak highly enough. The battery lasts 23 days though I try to recharge it in the night, and recharges really fast. It connects nicely and automatically to my phone if I want to swap it to my laptop I have to do it manually but, not a big deal. The padding is comfy and doesnt bother me at all, and the noise canceling works incredibly even in the NYC subwaystreets. Overall, I would recommend these to basically anyone, but I do have three tiny complaints. One, the blue indicator light doesnt really need to be on all the time, just feels like a waste of battery At least being able to toggle that would be nice. Two, the shiny finish does show fingerprints, so if you really care about that then these might not be ideal for you. Three, they make a little squeaking noise not unlike a mouse when theyre around my neck and Im walking around, which as someone who works in a mouse lab, occasionally gives me anxiety attacks about someone escaping. But overall, really great product at a really great price.

I seen a review of COWIN SE7 headphones on YouTube and I must say the review was spot on. These headphones are great A Point of reference, I do own a set of Bose top end headphones my so called Sunday go to meeting headphones, an old school expression for only use on special occasions. For me that would be long distant traveling. I also have a 17 year old pair of Sony headphones that I still use regularly. Im 75 years old and over the years have always had a good set of headphones. I must say the SE7 when way beyond my expectations for the price. Sound quality. The SE7 are very comfortable and the sound is unbelievably good to me. I have never liked loud music and have always look for clarity of sound and a clear deep bass sound at mid level volume. The SE7 checked that box for me. While the Bose are a very good, to me they are little bass heavy for my taste which make the bass sound unclear, just a heavy thump. I prefer the bass quality of the SE7. Also with the SE7 there is a difference in sound between the Bluetooth connection and the inline connection, I think the Bluetooth connection has a richer sounds. Inline or Aux connection is connecting the headphones directly to your device. In my case that would be a iPhone, iPad, and Onkyo home theater system Noise canceling function, there is a slight difference in sound between the onoff but for me its nothing to write home about. The ear cushions fit so nicely that for me it just naturally blocks out the surrounding sound at mid level volume without the cancellation on hope this is not due to my age and earring. Another checked box for me. Volume control. There is a difference with the volume controls between the inline and Bluetooth. In the Bluetooth mode the headphones volume control controls the device volume. In the inline mode the volume controls on the headphones are separate from the device volume controls and you may have to adjust both to achieve the desired volume. When I plug in the headphones in on my iPhone or iPad the volume is automatically reduced on the device must be a safety feature. The headphones volume controls will not change the volume on the device. Didnt like. This may be just my thing but I like that all of the controls on the headphones are all on one side the right side another checked box for me. Pairing. The SE7 pairing function is easy to use with no problems. Once the SE7 Bluetooth ID is set up on your device, when you turn on the headphones it will automatically reconnect to your device. What I found so far is that it will only pair with one device at a time. I bounce between my iPhone and iPad and have set up the SE7 Bluetooth ID connection on both. It seems that when I tune on the headphones the Bluetooth It will only automatically pair with the last device l use. I have gotten used to concurrent device pairing. So this a bummer for me… Battery life. The headphones battery life for the Bluetooth function isnt a concern for me because I can use the inline connection and keep going. The battery percentage on the phone is more my concern.I think the COWIN SE7 are a great set of headphones and now Im wondering what to do with the BOSE

I dont live alone so I really wanted a pair of noise cancelling headphones for when I want to disconnect and listen to audiobooks or music. My sister had bought a red pair of these headphones about a month prior and recommended them to me. They had a reasonable price compared to the popular brand names and she was extremely satisfied with her pair so I went ahead and purchased a green pair for myself. I am equally satisfied with my pair. Its my first pair of noise cancelling headphones. They dont cancel out all noise, but dull outside noise quite a lot. Enough so that it doesnt interfere with whatever youre listening to. Theyre easy to use and are super comfortable, sitting around my ears so I never have the pain of smushed ears despite often wearing them all day 610 hours. I will note that Im still getting used to the noise canceling function. Whenever I turn it on, I feel slight vertigo. I do seem to be getting used to it and can move around using it without feeling ill. However, I cannot use them with the noise cancelling function with no audio playing or I do feel dizzy. The first time I charged the headphones they took about 4 hours to fully charge. Subsequent charges have taken about 1 hour since I recharge them every other day to 2 days, before they run very low on battery. I have the green pair and theyre a beautiful matte metallic finish a greenishblue color as pictured.

I have owned and used these headphones for a year now. I have paired them with multiple different phones all android and multiple different laptops and theyve never given me an issue. Ive used them while working out at the gym and while at my job where Im surrounded by many humming machines. The noisecanceling is great and works well in both of those situations. The sound and bass quality are the best Ive experienced up so far. Although, I will admit Ive never spent more than 100 on headphones. Better headphones may exist, but Im perfectly satisfied with these.What prompted me to write this review was that I accidentally washed these headphones today while in their case and they still work. I was impressed.

I have spent a little more time with these and experienced a small problem with them so I wanted to update my review. They still warrant a five star rating. I have owned a number of Bluetooth headset, both cheap and expensive, and these compare well with all of them. The sound quality is fantastic and the active noise reduction is great also. I am really super impressed by the look and feel of these as well. You cannot go wrong with these I highly recommend them. The first addition to my original review is the battery life. They say 30 hours, which seems just crazy but I am getting every minute of those hours and more. Absolute fantastic. They are incredibly comfortable and likely the most comfortable pair of headphones I have ever worn. I listened to music through them for 4 consecutive hours yesterday and barely even noticed them the entire time. I did have occasion to contact the seller for an issue with the pair that I received. On a Friday night, I sent an email, not expecting a response until Sunday evening. Much to my surprise, less than 30 minutes later I had a response and a solution to my problem. I really like to talk about companies who show an incredible commitment to service and this is one of those companies. I am more impressed with these than ever and continue to recommend them very highly. This is an exceptional product

VERY pleased. Great investment for the price. I am by no means an audiophile however these headphones satisfy my needs.I absolutely love the plush feel the headphones provide. Theyre very comfortable and by no means cheap.The sound itself is very good. Theyre not the highend BosesSonysSennheisers however I am able to tune out loud noises fairly well.We have many loud parrots at our home and during their peak screech cycles, these headphones tune them out without blowing my ears out with full volume. This is even without the ANC feature switched on.The noise cancellation works even better but for the most part, I can manage to enjoy headphones without much interruption.I HIGHLY recommend these headphones, especially if youre someone whos looking for quality headphones for a fair price. They even come with a sturdy case and have a warranty.

I love everything about these headphones. The sound is amazing although if youre a extremely picky audiophile, youll want some of those nifty ones that cost a ton. Theyre super comfortable, and this is coming from someone who has ears pretending to be delicate flowers. I HATE wearing overear headphones most of the time. Basically all of them, actually, except these. I can wear them for HOURS, and I have no problems. When turned on, the noise cancellation is splendid. I tend not to use it, just because I wear them at work most of the time, and I want to know if someone is trying to talk to me. It also drains the battery a bit, but thats not surprising. These have a splendid battery, and Im actually shocked at how good the play time is. Theyre not kidding about 30 hours. I highly recommend these. Youll be pleased.

The COWIN SE7s are amazing. Ive had them for over a year now, and they are a gift that never stops giving. Here are some specifics that I like The sound cancelling works very well, and can be switched on and off depending on your surroundings The sound is great I have no complaints The headphones are durable and sturdy. Somebody even knocked them off my head on accident, but they still work fine. They are very comfortable. I never have problems with them not fitting properly, itching, or anything else The bluetooth is amazing My phone connects to them about three seconds after I turn them on, and I never have problems with the sound cutting in and out. The range is also excellent. The built in controls are very useful. They allow you to change songs, adjust volume, and pause or play your music. The battery life is insanely long. I listen to music and podcasts for 23 hours each day, and the battery still usually lasts more than a week. It also gives you a low battery warning by beeping, which is pretty useful. Some things I dont like After heavy use, the material on the ear cups is wearing away. Everything still works fine, but they just arent quite as comfortable. Theyre BIG. These headphones are not something youd want to take on vacation or work out with. They are fairly heavy and bulky, but the quality of the product completely makes up for it. although 30 hours of battery life might not be completely nescessary

Ive been using a previous model, the Cowin S7, for over a year now, and I bought these ones recently as an upgrade. Ive been using these pair of headphones for a week now, and I can confidently say that these headphones are some of the best you can get within this price range. I have absolutely zero complaints about the sound quality, as these headphones have given me a great listening experience thus far. The thing I love most about them is the battery life I havent charged them once since I pulled them out of the box and I average about 2 hours of listening time per day on my commute. They look quite nice as well I enjoy the minimal branding and the sleek look. The only downside I might give to these headphones is the fact that they feel a little brittle, the adjustable part especially so. However, the S7 model felt the same way, and I feel like as long as I take good care of it, it most likely wont break on its own. Theyre also quite comfortable to wear, given its lightness, especially when compared to the S7 model. I have big ears as well and they fit me perfectly. Overall, I would definitely recommend this pair of headphones if youre looking within the 100 dollar range.

Bought these headphones based on all the great reviews. The reviews are all pretty accurate. For the money, you cant go wrong with these headphones. The sound quality is definitely not Bose caliber, however they sound pretty decent…definitely a good bang for your buck. As most reviews state, they are bass heavy…I adjusted the settings on my phones EQ and was able to get a bit more of a balanced sound. There is a noticeable change in the sound and the bass is significantly reduced in ANC mode. The ANC works quite well, it doesnt cut out all noise like the 500 600 Bose headphones do, but it gets rid of droning noises like engines running and trafficmachinery. Sound isolation is pretty decent without the ANC on as well, I can sit in a noisy room and just be completely immersed in the music. As far as comfort goes, these headphones are on another level…the padding is softer than a pillow and fits perfectly around my ears, I actually forget I have them on sometimes. Battery life is fantastic as well, they came fully charged and they have outlasted the battery life on my phone three times over. Overall I would highly recommend these headphones to someone looking for a quality product but doesnt want to spend a fortune. Very impressed and happy with them.

This is my first pair of noose cancelling headphones. The sound quality is excellent, and the noise canceling blocks out most background noise.I got these headphones for 2 reasons work calls, and working out. For work calls the audio is, obviously, amazing. The microphone quality isnt fantastic, and I do often end up using my computers microphone. They look amazing my wife says theyre too cool for me, and my coworkers regularly comment on them. For working out, I couldnt ask for a better pair of headphones. I go on 6 mile runs and the headphones stay put the whole time. Connects with my Apple Watch. Perfect.I have never exhausted the battery. I use them all day, some with noise canceling som without. I usually plug them in over night.Overall, I wouldnt trade these out for a different pair From another brand. Im very happy.

I am a video editor by trade, so I almost always have headphones on while Im working. These are comfortable for longterm use definitely overear, the sound quality is excellent for principal sound design, the battery seems to last forever when fully charged, and best of all theyre wireless. So stoked when I get up to get coffee to not have to pause, unplug, or accidentally rip out a cable I speak from experience. I know wireless headphones arent a new technology but these are a game changer for me, haha.They come in an excellent package presentation, too. The zippered travel bag is nice and deluxe with a mesh pouch for cables and a handle. It also includes a standard 3.5mm wired cable just in case you forgot to charge, AND BOTH quarterinchphono and airplane adapters. They got you coveredMy only feedback that took me by surprise was that the green in the Amazon pics is actually more of a teal in reality. I included a pic of the headphones alongside some other green items for comparison. The flash is really having the blue hue in the frame pop, but there is some green in there… but like I said, I think teal would probably be a more accurate description of the color. I am wearing them on my head as I type this, so it really doesnt matter too much.Thank you for making an excellent product with the SE7 series, Cowin

Hi everyone, I bought a set of these on the other site, but thought I should review since I fly 12x a month. If youre like me flying coach, rows 2032, you really need some relief from the hassle of flying. Esp. noise Ive been using my apple ear buds, and some sony over the ear but neither would let me hear a movie clearly. I was researching a lot of noise canceling and although there are better units, they also cost a lot more. Other cheaper units like the monoprice sound interesting but reviewers found issues. Saw these on but ended up getting a set for 41.00… REVIEW Pros lowerd the noise of the jet and propeller engines about 506070 without noise canceling with it lowered it about 75 but what it really does is change the jet roar from bass to a more higher pitch. With NC it also seems to change the audio you want to hear a bit into a medium pitch not sure if thats the correct description. Music changes a bit as you lose bass, So far used them about 68 hours no battery charge loss. Cons on my head which is about small med they seem tight and my ears hurt a bit after 1 hour, I need to remove them for 1 min5 min then go another 45 min or so. My ears also get a little hot but you do need to cover the ears tightly to lower sound. House keeper is using faucet with stainless sink and it definitely lowered the noise about 5060 which is actually quite a lot. This AM I noticed my GF speaking to a contractor and that noise in a house with hard tile and glass was not as low as I thought and other noises like plastic rustling doesnt seem to be as low as I would like but its frequency lowering but it needs to be consistent noise so you cant win them all. Also, I did 12 the flight without the NC and that was about the same 5070 Medium The headphones are much larger than I thought they would be similar to my old v1 beats but the quality of the construction seems really high. I say 4 stars for being good but maybe not amazing for 4050.00 Id say 5 stars for 70.00 maybe not quite 5.

This headset is great I should mention that Im not a highend audiophile, but given that, these headphones are perfect for the following reasons1. The sound is full, crisp, rich and enveloping. I find myself totally absorbed in the music, podcast, audiobook, or whatever.2. The Bluetooth works so well. I often leave my phone on a windowsill in the house while Im working outdoors in the garden perhaps 15 yards away. I can adjust sound, fast forward or reverse, answer the phone, all from the controls on the headset. It never messes up.3. The battery life is unbelievably long. I havent been keeping track exactly how long, but I know that in the six weeks Ive owned them, Ive only charged them three times. I rarely need the noise cancelling feature, which works well when I do.4. They are the among the lightest weight headphones available.I give them my highest recommendation.

I bought these specifically to be a travel set for flying. I had a 3 hour flight from home to Denver as my first trip to try them out on. So this review is very specifically targeted towards them as a travel companion. First, the primary purpose of any headphone is sound. Mine were paired to an iPad and had great sound throughout and did a very good not perfect job of filtering out the background noise. There was still a little bit of a dull hum from the engine noise, but nothing really major and the music sounded really good to my ears. Second thing I noticed was battery life. I left with a full charge and arrived with a nearly full charge. I would guess you could use these for at least 20 hours or so at that rate which means the battery life is great for a travel companion. Third thing is comfort. In general, the padding was pretty adequate and did a good job. But after a couple hours, they pressed on the ears hard enough to be noticeably sore. This may get better over time, but I have had more comfortable sets in the past. And the last thing is portability. These do not fold up well so they take more space then they really should. A hinge in the middle and a little more range in how the earpieces adjust would probably have made this much better. And the case is just a pouch so there is no protection for the headphones. So overall, I gave them 4 stars. For the price, they really are a great value, but plan on utilizing a decent amount of space in your carryon for them. A little better portability and case and I would have given them 5 stars.

Soooooo Im just gonna lead with the obvious People are loud and annoying. I dont think thats necessarily anyones MO, but here we are. It is HARD for me, anyway for me to get things done in noisy environments, as I tend to have a pretty short attention span, and am fairly easily distracted by what others are doing, loud sounds, shiny things, etc.I discovered the gamechanging powers of a good set of headphones shortly after purchasing a decent set of bluetooth earbuds, but was disappointed in the battery life when I went to try to wear them for work. Enter the SE7s. Not only are they a simply gorgeous shade of teal, but they also have excellent battery life, pretty solid noise cancelling abilities anecdotal story apparently my boyfriend had been shouting to our neighbors via bullhorn dont ask and I was completely oblivious in my home office bubble, and pretty fantastic sound quality. The microphone works pretty well for video calls, too. They come with a kinda mediumsoft case, but I bought a hard shelled case for better protection as they get thrashed around in my backpack. Theyve held up pretty well over the year that Ive had themAre these the most noise insulating headphones in the world Probably not.How do they do on airplanes Great questionCan they drown out my gradually overpowering sense of existential dread Maybe Depends on what Im listening to.Do they help me ignore whats going on around me so I can focus on a computer screen for several hours a day YOU BETCHAAll in all, great headphones. Highly recommended

I love these headphones. I work in a very noisy laboratory environment conversations, loud music, etc., and these do a good job of blocking out a lot of the background noise and allow me to focus, which makes me considerably more productive. I am wearing them right now. Much of the noise blocked is from the closedback design, and then the active noise cancelling takes out a lot of the mid and low frequency noise after that. Some of the high frequencies are left. All considered, you get a substantial reduction in outside sound. Then, once I add my music, I can no longer hear even somewhat loud distractions in the background. I can finally listen to something on an airplane and actually hear it clearly in spite of the droning of jet engines. No, the noise cancelling is not perfect, but you should understand that no noise cancelling will ever be. Noise is measured on a logarithmic scale, meaning that a small decrease in dB measured is a substantial decrease in noise. Our ears are very sensitive and can still pick up even small amounts of noise. Even shotgun earmuffs cant completely cancel noise to where we cant hear it. Dont expect headphones to be shotgun earmuffs These are great headphones and cancel out a lot of noise, passively and actively. That combined with some music blocks out a vast majority of my distractions. If you live or work in a noisy environment, these are great. The bluetooth works well and battery life is good. These are comfortable, and the ear pads are soft and provide a very nice seal around my ear note that the ear fits completely inside the pad the pads are not resting on top of the ear, which is highly preferred.

I love this headphone I had another pair that wasnt covering my ears like I wanted so my hubby had the COWIN brand in white and he told me to try his on. When I did, it was love at first ear cover, lol and I couldnt hear the noise from the tv. Everything outside of the headphones were muffled and not loud. I felt like, where were these headphones all my life. I dont like loud sounds and these definitely work I feel I need them in every color now. I now use them for work since everyone is home due to COVID. I have 3 children doing online school, so my headphones are right on time Did I mention I also use them for watching Movies The Bluetooth option is a sweet deal… I actually have leave one ear uncovered so I could hear if my family is calling me for something or asking a question because I found that if I put the headphones one the way they are intended to be use, I cant hear my family talking to me. I give them 5 STARS

This. Battery. LifeI have had these headphones for over a year now and the thing that I am still drop dead stunned about is how long the battery lasts I can fall asleep with them on and theyll be playing all night and still have enough battery to last through the entire next day without needed a recharge. Plus they charge up pretty quickly. Within an hour or so I believe. I honestly never worry about it.So many times I have found these in the bottom of my bag, forgotten about for a week or so, and they will connect right away and still have like 80 battery on them or something lol.With how great the battery life is, and the awesome convenience of them being wireless I wish two things were better about them…1 I wish that phone calls were clearer on them. I can hear the person talking to me just fine, but the person on the other line always complains that they cant hear me. So it must be something with the placement of the mic perhaps.2 I wish the material were a bit more breathable for long term wearing. My ears get a bit sweaty in them if Im exercising or its hot out. Great for chicago winters though, haOverall though, with the price point, the battery life, and the style of them, these are the ONES. I have the teal green color and it still has a lovely matte sheen to it and is nice to look at.Again, Ive had these a year and half, theyve been used and thrown into bags and dropped, and they are still in great shape. Great purchase for my needs

So to start with, the box came in a nice plastic seal which I liked. However, it was a bit banged up when I opened it, which I didnt appreciate given how expensive in my opinion these are. A clean, untampered with box gives you piece of mind, especially with electronics. The headphones come already folded in the travel case, it kind of creased the ear pads a little, but it filled back out after I used them for a while. As far as presentation goes, not the best for Cowin. Theyve done better for other products. With that being said, I gave it a 5 star because the sound quality is fantastic. There is great base and the sound is crisp for media have not tried a phone call with it yet. I am very happy with the design of these. The color is just how it looks in the picture, its a soft and semi matte finish which works really well for the design. Its not too heavy, but also has some decent weight so it doesnt feel like a plastic toy. Theyre also not too bulky and combersome when theyre resting around your neck. The ear pads are very soft and airy. I wear glasses so naturally anything putting pressure on them gets uncomfortable. But I can wear these for quite a long time before they start to bother me at all. If you dont wear glasses, youll be even happier with the softness. The buttons are very easy to toggle, the instructions are not complicated to follow. I did try the noisecanceling, and I have owned better NC headphones but these fall in a 45 rating. They are not bad. All in all, theyre a great buy and I am not disappointed at all for the price. Would buy again

I have waited for a month of extended use by myself, my wife and the kids. I think this is one of the best use of your dollar towards getting an effective overtheear active noise cancelling headset that will actually last during that long international flight. I snatched these in a lightning deal at halfprice but now that I have had them, I am going to buy a second set at full price, because its a steal even then. I wore these during long flights recently and though the flight wasnt long enough to test the advertised battery life, it did come close and 22 hours of active noise cancelling bliss was mine with these headsets on. It still had enough juice to last until the next day. Pros battery will actually outlast you and the fuel in the aircraft, contrary to most noise cancellation is effective. Removing these albeit briefly reveals a loud ruckus of airspeed along the fuselage, loud air blasting out of ceiling vents that other passengers have seemingly gotten accustomed to ear pads are comfortable enough to wear as long as the battery or flight will last acoustic pressure is low on this model. For example, I cant wear the Bose Quiet Comfort because their nominal acoustic pressure makes me feel claustrophobic. Ive sampled other models too that also overdo noise cancelling, like the Sony 1000X. If those are your benchmark, then move on. These have much weaker noise cancellation, but more tolerable for the long haul in my opinion. even without noise cancellation on, noise isolation alone is quite effective. The closedback design and thick padding really shines in its own right. Cons my wife said they felt heavy. the weight is not an issue for me. active noise cancellation might initially feel underwhelming but thats really going to pay off in long listening sessions I wish they folded more compactly Notes charging can take a while. I havent timed it but make sure you leave them plugged over night before a long flight. like any closedbacks, it can get a bit warm in the ear cups during extended use

Im by no means an audiophile, or headphone connoisseur. I was looking for a comfortable set of wireless headphones, with noise cancellation. I have small ears, and have never been satisfied with the small ear pods. I came across these after searching for a highly recommended pair. I saw the dark green color, and had to give the a go. Im not an expert, but I can say he noise cancellation seems to work well, and the sound is rich. I charged them when they arrived, until the light went off, per directions. Its been almost a week of daily use, and the battery life still shows up as 34 charged. Definitely recommend.

I received these headphones several days ago and immediately and anxiously unboxed and charged them so I can test them out. I already have the Cowin E7 Pro, that I happen to love, so I was anxious to compare the performance to those.These new SE7s have a very simple and sleek look, I really like that. They may not be as showy as the E7 pro, but I like it that way. I started to charge them, and realized shortly thereafter that they were fully charged from the factory, so that was a nice surpriseI tried them on for comfort, and all I can say is WOW They are sooo comfortable. They feel light and soft on your ears. The cups are angled in reference to the headband, so they fit perfectly over my ears, and give a perfect seal. They are MUCH more comfortable than the E7 Pro and I thought those were comfortable. My only complaint is that the pivot points for the ear cups seem to make a creaking noise when the headphones move around as I walk. Its not a big deal, I know Im being picky, but felt I should mention it.I started off by testing the noise cancelling function first. As with other tests that Ive done, I used different test noises such as Vacuum cleaner, fan, humidifier, lawn mower outside, etc. The noise cancelling function on these seem to be a HUGE improvement over the older headphones. Even though the older ones were also good at filtering noise out, these are even better, and more importantly, the noise cancelling function is practically silent when turned on The E7 Pros, as well as most other headphones costing multiple times more have a slight white noise hiss when that function is turned on. This was VERY impressive to me.I then made a phone call using the headphones. The persons voice was loud and clear, and they said I sounded very clear as well. I dont like using that function because I find it annoying when I speak and hear my voice muffled in my head because of the headphones. Just a personal thing for me, but if you like using them for phone calls, they will perform fine.And finally, I tested the sound. I tested them with a Bluetooth signal, as well as with a wired connection. I also did a wired back to back connection comparing them to the E7 Pro, using a high end pre amp and a good source. I listened to various types of music as well. At first they sounded VERY similar to the E7 Pro, but I tried very carefully to come up with differences. Initially the E7 Pros sounded like they had a little more pronounced bass, and possibly better. However, as I listened more especially with a wired connection and a good source, I started to realize that the Bass wasnt that much weaker with the SE7s, it was just more accurate. The mids seem to be more accurate and clear, and the highs were too similar to hear a difference. Overall, they both sound great, but I slightly prefer the sound of the SE7s if I had to pick.Taking everything into account. The comfort, the noise cancelling, and the sound, I honestly cant see how you can beat the SE7s. I HIGHLY recommend them if that is the price point that you are looking for.

Ive been using this headphone for over a year now. It has great sound with emphasis in bass which was what I was looking for The ear pads are very soft. Bluetooth and noise cancelling works well. I wear glasses so after a few hours the edge part close to my ears would start hurting due to the pressure. But I found loosing the length of the headphone making it very wide helps a lot Their customer service is excellent. It got damaged after a flight and they sent a replacement immediately after contacting them. For the price you are paying, if you are looking for a multi functioning headphone its worth it. If Im looking for another headphone in the future Ill totally consider getting another from Cowin.

The first pair that I recieved were defective and had constant white noise in the right ear and, if active noise cancellation was activated, would make popping noises when jostled even a little. I promptly contacted customer support and was able to get a new pair for free in my hands within about a week I did not have to return the old ones so I gave them to my Dad. There are several good things to know about these headphones. First, they look very high quality and the weight from the batteries makes them feel pretty high quality as well, even though they are just plastic. The sound quality is good, nothing an audiophile would faun over, but nice and clear with plenty of bass for almost everyone. The battery life is also very good, I have never had to worry about them dying on my. I used them all day while flying, with the noise cancellation on, and they did not even give a low battery warning. Speaking of the noise cancellation, this is the average part of the headphones. On their own, the earcups dampen a lot of noise which is nice if you need to conserve battery life. If, however, you are in an environment which has a constant loud sound level in a plane, car, coffee shop it will lower the sound level significantly, though not remove it without music or something to go over it. It does not block out sudden noises well, like voices or car horns. When it comes to cons the reason for the 4 star rating, there are two that are noticeable. First, in wired mode, they often have feedback issues and still turn on bluetooth even though they are already plugged into another device. Second, the active noise cancellation takes away a lot of the bass in music movies are fine. This is not really an issue if it is loud anyway, but in a quiet environment is quite noticeable. Overall good for the price. It is not hard to find headphones like this for 6 or 7 times as much, but these bring a lot to the table for a reasonable price point.

These are comfortable for extended periods of wear. I use them in an office setting to close out distractions and focus on work by listening to primarily classical music but I have also used them for gaming and for audiobooks. I have probably had them on for up to 34 hours at a time.The noise cancelation is good enough, as is the sound quality in a variety of applications but not as good as my sons highend Bose. On the other hand, I paid about 13 what he paid, so Im satisfied. Im not an extremely discerning audiophile Im practical and want something good that doesnt break the bank. Hes in audio professionally.The microphone works much better than I expected.These are great for what they do, and are very well priced.
N.W. –
Let me start off by saying just how comfortable these are. I can wear them for 10 hours straight, and barely get any fatigue. Its unreal how comfortable they are. I fly frequently for work, and didnt feel like dropping 300ish on a set of Bose, and was intrigued by the low price with the supposed 30hour battery life. Lets talk about that battery life. I havent completely cataloged how long that battery lasts, but it lasts at least a full traveling day, so at least 18 hours. That is impressive. Also impressive is the nose cancelling. At this price point, you usually run into a lot of pretty gimmicky stuff where its not actually active noise cancellation. Im here to tell you that when you get on a plane, and the jet engine fire up and start to roar, and you flip that switch, that roar goes almost completely away to a whisper. Is it as completely isolated of an environment as the Bose will give you No, not at all. But these are darn good. Taking the above cons into account, I have no qualms about wholeheartedly recommending these headphones to anyone.

The GoodThese headphones are super comfortable. I can wear them for hours without any issue, and they feel great.The noise cancelling part work really well in my home office to drown out the background noise.The battery life is pretty good and it lasts for a good while.I like how they fold over.They are fairly sturdy.Their customer support is really good.The price is super fair for what I got 100.00 USDThe bluetooth connects really quickly and well. Great for listening to music when doing the dishes.The BadLike any bluetooth headphones you have to turn them on. And if you just want to use wired mode it doesnt detect that from powering on. I need to turn the headphones on, and unplug and replug the cable. Its not an issue if you are plugging in a cable when there isnt one in there, but it is an inconvenience.The UglyNone, these heaphones rock and I love them. I got given a pair of Sony noise cancelling headphones for christmas worth about 240USD and I havent even opened them since I love these so much.

I LOVE these headphones. I had a set of bluetooth earbuds, but earbuds are so uncomfortable for my ears no matter how small. I was looking at these for months. They sat in my cart for the longest I finally took the plunge on Black Friday because my other headphones got on my nerves and so did my loud neighbor.Im no expert on sound quality. I just wanted overear headphones as aesthetically pleasing as Beats that were comfy and could drown me in my music. These are IT. I dont feel like I have to blast the volume to hear every song perfectly well. I listen to a lot of heavy metal, so thats super important for my poor eardrums. And when I have these on, I cant hear ANYTHING else.I havent tried the noise cancelling feature. I probably never will.Im glad I got the red ones. The Magenta ones were calling me but in the customer images I didnt like that the cushioned parts were a lighter shade. The red is a lot more ME anyway. Serving up lewks in these bad bois. lol.I didnt have any of the issues other reviewers mentioned re possible refurbishing andor light damage. Everything came in perfect condition. They were fully charged and ready to go when I opened the box. I love the simplicity of the case.I didnt realize that the overear part swivels on the band. I think that makes them much more comfortable than Beats. They arent as stiff. Im glad Amazon didnt let me cancel this impulse buy. lol. Will update if I encounter any issues.Side note I am having trouble registering for the extended warranty. The QR code pulls up a facebook messenger box with no recipient so I will be emailing the seller about that.

Ive only had these for a short while, so you can take my review with that caveat, but these are great sounding, very comfortable bluetooth headphones. In online meetings all of the time since Im working from home and I need a good pair of headphones with a good mic and these definitely fill that role. Where they excel is with music and other things that require actual quality. I am replacing a set of MPOW H7 which were about a third of the cost of these and you can hear every dollar difference in terms of sound quality. Totally different experience listening to music with these than with the cheaper headphones.Cant speak extensively to the noise cancellation, but it seems fine. And I cant compare these to the 200 headphones like Sony etc., but for the mid tier around 100 these are excellent sounding and very comfortable. Totally worth the upgrade for me, since I have these on 68 hours a day.

I love these things I am normally very particular about my headphones, and am normally disappointed with anything that costs less than an arm and a leg. I saw these on sale at approx. 70 normal price was listed as 100, and decided that I would give them a shot in order to experiment with Active Noise Cancelling. The best way to experience these headphones is while listening to something while Noise Cancelling is turned on. if you only have Noise Canceling on, several outside noises can still be noticed even if they are much quieter. If you are only listening to something, it feels as if you are missing certain levels of your audio. With the both of them together, you get the true experience these headphones offer a vibrant and diverse audio range that effectively shuts out most outside noise. Ultimately, I still feel that you get what you pay for when it comes to soundaudio. However, if youre a new audiophile or you want to see what Active Noise Canceling is without dropping three hundred bucks, these are the headphones for you. P.S. I would also recommend buying a hard shell case for these COWIN SE7 Active Noise Cancelling Bluetooth Headphones with Microphone HiFi Deep Bass Wireless Headphones Over Ear, Comfortable Protein Earpads, 30 Hours Playtime for Travel Work TV Computer Black

Im on my now 4th pair of these and though Ive tried other brands, I just cant seem to find any to meet or exceed the quality of these. The sound is unbeatable and Ive never seen a headphone that kept a charge like these I wear them literally every day and usually only have to charge them once a week. My first pair were awesome until the feel off of my roof while I was doing some repairs. I ordered another pair and wore the padding off of the ear covers so I ordered a pair for when I was just watching a show or listening to music so the other could get gross and it didnt matter. The first pair have made it through 2 Texas summers of wood working, tree removal, a dig out for a driveway, and a yard leveling for a half abovehalf below ground pool. The third pair were awesome until I went to slide them off of my head one morning and the left ear piece fell apart in my hand. I contacted Cowin about their 1824 month warranty and how you claim against it. This was at 7pm on a Sunday night mind you. They responded within 10 minutes and had a code for me to order a brand new pair within the hour. I have NEVER been so pleased with a company before in my life. The woman was so very nice and even apologized for me having to be inconvenienced. I told her that things happen and I was not upset, but thanked her for her concern. These things are pretty much my life line so I told her she was my super hero of the day and she was very gracious about it. I also own a pair of the wireless earbuds as well. I will always own Cowin products from the time of my first purchase until one of us me or the company gives up.

Its hard to beat this price for this wireless quality and comfort. I primarily use these to watch tv or play games when I do not have the house to myself. For these purposes both blue tooth and wired options work well. The battery life is superb compared to other wireless headphones I have used. The ability to use them as wired headphones if you forget to charge them is nice. I personally never use the on ear controls as they seem awkward. The volume control seems backwards and unintuitive on top and on bottom. However, I never use the headphone controls anyways as they always seem to be the first, or only, thing to stop working reliably. These are probably the most comfortable 100 overear headphones Ive ever used. Even more comfortable than some much more expensive Sennheiser and Grado overears Ive used. I have not had the great experience with the noise cancelling function as other reviewers have had. I have found the NC mode lacking when it comes to using them while a tv is being watched loudly in the other room by roommates. I have also used these once while doing yard work when I forgot to charge my Anker soundbuds I prefer the Anker buds for yard work. The NC mode made little to no difference against the mower, weed eater and blower. For listening to music in a quiet environment they are better than I expected but still pale in comparison to the sound quality of wired headphones. These headphones are perfect if you are wanting to watch tv or play games without disturbing others and dont want to be fettered by wires. If you are looking for headphones to use while doing yard work or exercising, stick to wireless earbuds. If you want to enjoy music, stick to wired headphones.

I purchased this set of headphones to listen to music and cancel out noise on flights and at home while working in my home office. The product arrived on time and without any damages. The headphones are nicely packaged in a handsome black box, which gives a premium feel to the product. The headphones were already charged but I let them charge completely overnight before using them. First I tested their sound quality through playing Spotify at extreme quality via Bluetooth. Bluetooth always degrades the sound quality, but the music sounded pretty nice through the E7s. The sound further improved when listening to a wired connection using the included cable. I am a bit spoiled when it comes to headphones as I own and use my Hifiman X V2, and Grado RS2e and SR225e. The E7 costs a fraction of the aforementioned products but I get about 90 of their sound quality. Yes, the last 10 is always the most difficult, but thats why I have the expensive cans. The E7s sound great for their price, have great noise cancelling ability and are very comfortable to wear for 3 hours as I did. The earpads are soft and do not press too hard on your ears. In Noise Cancelling mode the sound quality suffers slightly which is not a deal breaker for me. The sound quality in regular mode is balanced, with nice highs, expansive midrange and a clean low range. Go listen to Johnny Cashs acoustic version of Hurt and experience it Few days after using the E7s the left side developed a crackling sound in noise cancelling mode but was perfectly fine in the regular Bluetooth mode with NC switched off. I reported this to Cowin via email, to which they responded the next day and sent me a replacement with next day delivery. Fantastic customer service for great sounding headphones, an excellent combination. I am going to enjoy my headphones.

Ive never had noise cancelling headphones before, and as someone who wears glasses, Ive usually avoided over the ear headphones, opting for earbuds instead. These headphones just blew me away First, the earpieces are perfectly comfortable. I have had no problem wearing them over glasses, no pain from the arms of t h glasses at all. The fit is snug, but the padding is so soft it compensates. I also have a large head, but these fit no problem. The sound is amazing. Granted, I am used to earbuds, so the presence of bass at all is great, but the bass here is really clear. The range of sound is exceptional. Noise cancelling is quite a feature. It muffles all outside sounds, but you can still hear as in case of emergency. It isnt like gunshot headphones. As soon as you turn on noise cancelling, it does flatten out the overall sound, so the deep bass goes away, but it still sounds great. While riding in a car, it effectively cancelled out all the other sounds of the car. The 30 hours of battery life is outstanding Im used to earbuds, so I rarely get more than 8 hours there. Pairing is simple and it connects back up right away with my iPhone. Bluetooth connection is solid, with no drops. The only oddity is when you turn on noise cancelling, then you touch one of the sound cuts out in that earpiece. It isnt a Bluetooth or hardware problem, it comes from accidentally hitting the microphone on the earpiece, kicking the noise cancelling into overdrive. It never happens when noise cancelling is turned off. I highly recommend this headset

Ive been using the headphones for a couple months now. I use them for almost everything walks around the neighborhood, phone calls with work, Teams video meetings since I work from home. Everybody comments on the fabulous color The sound is perfectly fine for me. I mostly listen to podcasts or people talking on the phone and everything is clear. My coworkers have told me that my voice sounds great on the other end of phone calls. The headphones are also very comfortable. I can wear them for most of the day and theres no earache or head compression. I havent used the noise cancelling feature yet. I also dont wear them to workout… they are a tad too bulky for that. Hope this helps

Purchased these as I am now working from home and need noise cancelling headphones speaker mic for working on my computer at home, while also schooling my kids at home, and my spouse who is also working from home. Didnt want to spend an arm and a leg on fancypants brand like Bose or whatever. I was skeptical, but Ive been using these for 3 months now and they are great I would like to consider getting noise cancelling earbuds because I live in a tropical climate and these can occasionally get hot and heavy. But nothing will work as well as this covertheear headset for cancelling noise in a noisy work environment. Also, sometimes I just need to tune the kids out while being in the same living space with them. Ha ha.

First of all, it took me months to review this because I wanted to make sure that whatever was initially good about the product had longevity. So, number one, it was delivered quickly. They did not skimp on the packaging. I also bought a pair of Cowin headphones before and it was not this fancy. So, my first impression of this pair it looks highend. Its got a very clean design, allblack and matte. Easy to clean. The buttons are all on one place the right side. The buttons are very easy to figure out. Because this is overear, I never had problems with cushion pushing on my ears. I can listen to music using this for hours and I wouldnt feel any pain whatsoever. It has decent sound quality too. Its balanced not too much treble or bass. The noisecancelling effect is good, especially at this price point. It gets rid of most background noise like the AC, the sound that trains or airplanes make when they move, or just general street noise the kind that has sort of a diffused quality to it. What it doesnt get rid of is the noise that is directed at you like when someone is talking to you this is helpful especially as a pedestrian because I still need to hear when someone tries to get my attention like a cyclist ringing their bell. Its got excellent battery life. I could go on a week without charging it, and I use it on my daily commute. It also doesnt take long to charge. Overall, Im very pleased with this product. I dont go out of the house without it and its by far the best pair of headphones I own.

Great value and the best headphones Ive ever owned. It comes with an attractive black hard case and accessories. The steps and illustrations in the manual are easy to follow. Controls are easy to access and the functions work flawlessly as described. The headphones paired easily to my ipod with no issues. The music is clear and crisp. Highs and lows are just right. Great bass once the noise canceling feature is turned on. Most of all, the pads are so comfortable that I could wear the headphones for extended periods without experiencing any discomfort. A must have for those who value their music without sacrificing comfort

UPDATE I loved these so much I purchased a pair for the Mr but after less than a year of sporatic use the left ear piece on mine started intermittently lossing volume becoming muffled or what sounded like background static without using the NC feature. Thankfully I registered for the additional 6 month warranty online after purchase but when I tried to login to my account it said my email could not be found despite the confirmation email after registering continued emails offering discounts. Ive always stored them in the matching case purchased with the headphones have written the support team so Ill update my review after finding out how they handle a quality issue. ORIGINAL I had to pick these up when my Bose ate dust only a week before our international trip with 24 hours of travelling. Due to extreme ear pain when I fly I use airplane ears so Ive got to have overear headphones that dont press down on the plugs while they are in. These are AMAZING for the price Im honestly shocked at how well they work compared to my Bose, I was talking too low for anyone to hear me on the plane because I didnt want to shout..I could hear everyone talking to me with no background noise at all, upon taking them off its a shock to the system when you hear how loud the planes engines and airflow really are There would probably be a difference in an office type setting with all the different frequencies the noise cancellation cant take care of at once, but for things like air travel Id say these are the BEST DEAL ON THE MARKET I tried them out after they arrived and found that they cut out the background fuzz of traffic and everyday sounds but I could hear voices perfectly which is a plus, then on our flight I switched the bluetooth off and on again every few hours to hear the difference…it was staggering I even made my boyfriend try them on and switched it on and off again, he was so impressed that Ive no purchased a set for…

After years of replacing wired headphones due to the wires becoming brittle and sound loss in either side I decided that wireless headphones would be more appropriate for me. I absolutely need headphones, I live in an apartment complex with all sorts of different individuals. Some have dogs, some have kids, and some are just plain obnoxious so its not uncommon for me to try and escape some of the occasional nonsense by having on a set of headphones and listening to music or watching media. I chose these pair for a few reasons. 1. They are bluetooth wireless so I am able to link up to my computer and stream music while walking around my apartment, doing dishes etc. 2. They are affordable for me. I really wanted to go with a Sony brand or even Bose but 300 is just too rich for my blood. 3. They have a noise reduction feature. While it wont prevent me from hearing everything around me it still works well. I dont seem to notice what goes on outside of my apartment anymore as long as people arent lighting off bombs so I can live with that. Bottom line is I have some inconsiderate neighbors and now I dont have to hear about it. The noise reduction does result is a less dynamic sound to music but its not bad really, a fair trade off that can be toggled easily if I have a song that I want to enjoy to its fullest. Feature wise, I couldnt ask for more. A switch on the side lets you slide between off, bluetooth mode, and bluetooth with noise reduction. You can also use a headphone jack if you dont wish to use bluetooth. There are two buttons on the side that function as a volume up and volume down when held for a few seconds. When pressed quickly they function as a track forward or track back for selecting songs on a playlist. All in all I am happy with them and this is my second pair. Its nice to have an extra set just in case something goes wrong. I got my first pair is about 7 or 8 months before this and they still work great. I charge the batteries when I sleep and I do have long days, sometimes 24 hours coffee drinker so the fact that they will last that long without needing a charge is perfect. Its seriously a good value for the price.

I was a bit weary when ordering these because the last pair of wireless headphones I bought from JBL cracked within the first week of having them. So I really tried to do my research and find a much better pair and also something that has noise cancelling. The price point is very reasonable and it had all the features I was looking for. When I first heard the difference between noise cancelling and regular I was definitely blown away With the noise cancelling on you hear absolutely NO outside noise and its great when you really want that peace and quiet and it also is very easy to turn off. These headphones are also not super bulky and have a lot of padding which makes them very comfortable I would definitely recommend and purchase again in the future

I love these headphones. I work in a very noisy laboratory environment conversations, loud music, etc., and these do a good job of blocking out a lot of the background noise and allow me to focus, which makes me considerably more productive. I am wearing them right now. Much of the noise blocked is from the closedback design, and then the active noise cancelling takes out a lot of the mid and low frequency noise after that. Some of the high frequencies are left. All considered, you get a substantial reduction in outside sound. Then, once I add my music, I can no longer hear even somewhat loud distractions in the background. I can finally listen to something on an airplane and actually hear it clearly in spite of the droning of jet engines. No, the noise cancelling is not perfect, but you should understand that no noise cancelling will ever be. Noise is measured on a logarithmic scale, meaning that a small decrease in dB measured is a substantial decrease in noise. Our ears are very sensitive and can still pick up even small amounts of noise. Even shotgun earmuffs cant completely cancel noise to where we cant hear it. Dont expect headphones to be shotgun earmuffs These are great headphones and cancel out a lot of noise, passively and actively. That combined with some music blocks out a vast majority of my distractions. If you live or work in a noisy environment, these are great. The bluetooth works well and battery life is good. These are comfortable, and the ear pads are soft and provide a very nice seal around my ear note that the ear fits completely inside the pad the pads are not resting on top of the ear, which is highly preferred. My only gripe with these headphones, and it is a small one, is that sometimes I like to listen to music at a low volume, and I would like these to allow me to go to a few notches quieter than what they can do. I have not yet figured out how to get them to go quieter. Also, you should know these are pretty big. They stick out about 1.52 inches from your head, so if you prefer a really low profile, consider that. Note that I got these on a lightning deal for 40, but after using them I would definitely pay the normal 70 price tag. I dont have much information yet on the longevity of these headphones. I have owned them for about a month or two and use them regularly with no problems yet. Another lab mate has the same pair and is very satisfied. He has had them for about a month or two longer than I have. In regards to sound quality, I am a musician of more than 20 years, and the sound is more than good enough for me. It is not the same as what you will get from a 200 pair of studio headphones, but you should not be expecting that from these. The quality is good for the price, even at the 70 price point, but I bought these for the noise cancelling feature. If you want really high fidelity sound, consider something more like these httpswww..comBeyerdynamic770PRO250ohmsdpB0006NL5SMrefsr13smusicalinstrumentsieUTF8qid1509547703sr13keywordsbeyerdynamicdt770dpID41JV32pd7oLpreSTSY300QL70dpSrcsrch

I like these headphones a lot, they have a lot of sound quality. The sound isnt that great as I would had hoped it to be but its VERY strong definitely better than wearing apple earpods so for that Id give it a 45. Im sure the E9 has more sound quality but these are really good budget headphones it also came with a free warranty just in case. Worship music sounds like Heaven with these bad boys on. I noticed also it came with an amp plug and an airplane plug this headphone has it all. I bought the V modas headphones 200 and these sound nearly the same and these headphones came with those extra plug ins. Very great product highly recommend

Unfortunately, if you are an owner of a big noggin these headphones are not for you. If you are familiar with hat sizes I am a 7 12 or a LXL in the stretch fit hats and these headphones fit snug. BUT, if you have a average to smaller head size these headphones are sublime, seriously perfect. For the price these headphones really give you all the things you look for in base, quality, noise cancellation, style, and comfort will go in to this.So the comfort is really nice and the material for the ear cushion is not the cheap crappy type. However, once again, if you have big ears these are not for you… The cushion portion doesnt have a large circumference so it will snap onto the edges of your ears and can start to hurt your ears if you wear them for too long. what my roommate said, I have averagesmall ears so its not a big issue for me as I can have em on all day no problem.The style is very clean, none of that extra stuff. Very classy slick look and the when you look at the ear pieces they are as comfortable as they look. If you travel a lot or work from home and have music going these are perfect for you. But, honestly all purpose headphones as they come with a travel pack and that fits nice a snug and the outer shell of the case is hard material so they fit in backpacks nicely without much worry.THEY DO NOT NEED BATTERIES DVery lovely feature, so there is a switch for noise cancellation and it lasts for a good amount. You can easily tell when it the noise cancellation is out of juice, so you just plug her in to charge and your set to go again.Comes with a chord to hook to your computer but it is not very long but really not an issue if you are at your desk or hooked up from your music device from your pocket or backpack.Blutooth works very well, clean, easy to connectThe BEST thing about these headphones is COWIN. Their customer service is seriously impeccable, lady named Ariel helped me with many questions that I had and she was prompt, professional, and truly serves to your content. Great product with matching customer service is rare these days and COWIN does it right, 1010 would recommend them to anyone not just this model headphone either, The other models have great reviews as wellOne of my favorite purchases on Amazon to date, and ive been using Amazon for almost a decadeHope this review helps you guys Stay healthy and happy during this Corona pandemic, God bless

Originally I had used Cowins E7 noise cancellation headphones for a little over 2 years and their sound was wonderful, the bass was nice, and the noise cancellation really did what it set out to do. The bluetooth capability with both the E7 and SE7 are very convenient as well since I like to listen to musicpodcastsetc when I do housework or chores. I liked them even more than past headphonesearbuds I used to use, too. I eventually upgraded from the E7 to the SE7 due to them getting worn out on the ear pads and Im happy I did. The difference in quality was very minimal in a good way and theyre actually much more comfortable to wear, your ears dont get as sweaty either if you wear them for long stretches of time. The headphone cups are smaller and less clunky, the ear cushions are replaceable huge plus there as this is a major reason I switched from my E7 pair, and it works just as good as the E7. The only thing Ive noticed thats lacking is the bass is a little less strong, but after a while I grew accustomed to it and dont mind it anymore. Additionally theres no tinny warble or distortion of sound as some headphones tend to have I noticed. Overall a great product for the price, I did look up reviews beforehand and everyone seemed to love them as well with nice things to say and minimal complaints. I definitely recommend them
Q.B. –
I dont remember the last time I charged these things, and I use them regularly. The battery life is amazing. They have exceptional sound quality. The only two things I could possibly say would be that I never use the noise canceling because the hum makes me sick and it deadens the music sound a little, and I think they could be slightly more comfortable. They arent uncomfortable, but I have felt some pairs that feel better on the head. Regardless, I can still wear them for hours, and I am 100 sold on the level of quality in these things. Im exceedingly picky about sound quality, and these have raised the bar. Also, on the note of comfort I have a really small head. So these may be more comfortable for you and my music is usually too loud for me to hear anything so Who needs noise canceling anyway
E. –
Wow I normally dont use headphones that much but I do travel a lot by plane so I was looking for a noise cancelling headphone. Im a pretty cheap person so I was not going to pay for a big brand price. Thats when I saw quite a few good reviews about Cowin SE7 and man to be honest I was not expecting such a good produce. First the sound they make is remarkable Second the NC noise cancelling function is amazing in the plane you dont hear the roar of the engine. You do however lose a bit of sound quality, but Ive heard its a normal thing. Third they come in a really nice package with a nice case to carry them around. Fourth they are really comfortable to wear. However, my girlfriend tried them out and they were a little to big for her. So maybe a little too big for those with a smaller head shape… Fifth, the battery on this thing seems unkillable. Ive charged them once when I got them and didnt charge them ever since. Finally a very nice thing is that they come with a lot of adaptator So to make it short they are definitely a BUY

1st off the delivery and packaging was flawless. As you can see in the pics above lovely colors and shere quality and feel of the headphones are on point. I like the fact it comes very good quality protective case to store the headphones in. I must say upon trying the headphones on. There quite comfortable clearly you could where them for hours without getting ear fatigue. Very user friendly easy instruction as far as setting up Bluetooth paring. And finally the sound check….. Sound quality was great its just as they described deep rich bass nice nice and over tones you hear every instrument and background vocals and sounds Crisp Clear Clean Sound. The headphones give you the feeling of being submerged in surround sound setting hearing nothing but your music. BTW theres a dual feature if you will you can turn on the Active Noise Cancelation while listening to your music in which it just further enhance the listening experience. I tried both with and without it on you Still not here nothing on the outside. The tested the ANC by itself…It literally takes you away from all active sound you in absolute silence. It was amazing. You really do get you monys worth. Id recommend these to anyone. It further lets me know you dont have to spend upwards of 250 and above to receive the same Quality that includes the materials its made of Colin did a great job with the SE7 series. Last but not least I forgot to mention it also comes with a USB charging cord,3.5mm jacks,airline adapter and3.5mm to 6.5 mm converter. And yes it works with your phone answering as well as making calls blocking out all outside background noise. It also works with voice commands.. Again Great Job Cowin

1. Appearance Aesthetically pleasing, Looks high end but no bling bling2. Sound quality Excellent sound quality , deep bass, dont see much difference of quality when ANC on3. Bluetooth Connects to only one device at a time, quick connection, switches off automatically after a minute or so if disconnected so saving battery.4. Battery life I use it at work 45 hours a day and it lasts almost a week, but sometime i forget to switch off ANC and even if headset is powered off and ANC is on it drains battery completely overnight,5. Comfort Very comfortable, I dont even realize that they are on my head, perfect for extended use, I use it in my workplace and i work among noisy machines and boilers i use them for ear protection, I can hear my coworkers more clearely with ANC on

I have extremely sensitive hearing and the tiniest of constant noise really bothers me but Ive been ignoring it all my life. I was actually just looking for bluetooth headphones with decent quality for not alot of money and ran I to this baby with noise cancellation as a bonus feature. Now that I WFH most of the time and my kid is also remote learning since prepandemic we can be in the same space and not annoy each other. I spent alot more for her Sony headphones 2 years ago and they are amazing but I couldnt afford to spend the same this time. Hers didnt come with noise cancelling and now she is jealous of this pair lol. Another bonus It came in champagne. Disco Lol anyway I love them. Sometime the bluetooth feature doesnt work great when I try to use it on calls because i think the noise cancellation works so hard but i hard hardwire this thing into my laptop too and not use bluetooth and boom Back in biz Ive got a love hate with bluetooth devices. Theyre great when they work but when they dont and you dont have a quick backup plan youre screwed. Love these babies.

Just a heads up Ive only owned them for 2hrs so this wont be a really in depth review just yet.Straight out of the box impressions….. Very shiny, love the color and even just the optin for color. Just enough juice in them to get them setup and connected to my phone very, very easy process. Watched a couple of YouTubes to get a feel for the sound quality. So far theyre great for that. Very crisp and clear sound. No lag between video and audio.They fit over the ear nicely and are super soft and squishy. They actually much lighter than my last pair and that was a nice surprise.So far the only issue Ive had was the USB charging cable that came with it. For some reason it doesnt seem to go into the port well enough to trigger charging. But thats easily remedied with the bazillion charging cables I already seem to have aquired.
T.K. –
Pros ANC reduces outside noise by about 75 Sound quality is very good, no breakup or distortion when used with bluetooth. Uses either bluetooth 5.0 or cable connection, cable supplied. All controls are on right earpiece. Set is light weight and ear pads are extremely comfortable, fit nicely around the ears to seal out noise. 30 hour use between charges. Includes an adapter to plug directly into older model airplane audio that is on the arm rest. Cons Bluetooth is tricky to connect on multiple audio devices. Do not grip head tightly enough for jogging or exercising. I wore this headset for about 10 hours on a plane trip and experienced no fatigue at all. The light weight construction combined with the adequate but not too snug tension on the ear pieces made this the most comfortable set of headphones I have ever worn I hardly realized that I had them on. The sound is full, even at low volume, and they sound great. I estimated that they reduced ambient noise by about 70 as I was sitting right next to the plane engine and only heard a low noise which was easily masked by the music that was playing. When I removed the headphones, the engine noise was so loud I could barely hear the person talking right next to me. So while Ive never had those 200 300 noise canceling headphones, I cant imagine them doing much better than these. They have a built in microphone on the ear piece, but I have not used them to receive or make phone calls, so I dont know how well the microphone works. All controls are on the earpiece, so while you can certainly use them with the supplied cable if you wish, you cant control anything from the cable. I first paired the headphones with my iPad to watch a movie. They paired quickly and easily by following the directions that are supplied with the unit. After I changed planes, I decided to just listen to music so I wanted to use my iPhone. No matter what I tried, the headphones kept pairing with the iPad which was in my brief case. I had to take out the iPad, go to settings, and forget the headphones. After that, I followed directions again to pair with the iPhone X and it worked with the phone after that. To go back to the iPad, I had to repeat the process. I dont have to do that with other wireless headphones I own, so that was a bit of a hassle. I did attempt pressing both up and down volume buttons so the headphones would forget the previous attachment, but that didnt seem to work for me. If you exercise or job, these will most likely slip off your head as they do not grip very tightly, but that keeps them comfortable during long periods of use. Im convinced these are the best quality headphones for the price if you need noise cancelling technology.

Wow, right off the bat before I even opened these I was impressed by the product packaging. These headphones came in a nice sturdy black box with silver accents. After opening these, I was amazed by the beautiful red Wine color I bought these in. They have a nice red shimmer and photos dont do it justice. Just wow They were really easy to pair it literally took two seconds. I tried them as soon as I could and noticed they were louder than my past headphones I used to own which were more expensive than these. I like the buttons on the side for easy access. It makes changing songs and answering calls really easy plus theres a switch for the Active noise cancelling. It can be toggled onoff. It really lets you submerge yourself with any songs you choose. I chose Crystallize by Lindsey Sterling and was really wowed by all the sounds I didnt notice before. As for the comfort, the ear cups are really soft and cover my ears all the way which is a big plus. The headband isnt too tight so my head wouldnt hurt if I wore them too long which is great because I will use these for travel and leisure. The active noise cancelling actually works and I found my diesel truck nonexistent while I was driving. Its so quiet youd think you were driving a Tesla lol. Overall I really loved these headphones as they made me realize how much I was missing out on the ANC and comfort plus the sound is great which is what I was hoping for. I would recommend these for anyone wanting to purchase some headphones. They are really good headphones for the price and really affordable. Id say you get the most bang for your buck. I noticed the warranty is 18 months which is amazing. Really makes you realize how confident they are with their product. I have never used any Cowin products before and Im glad Im trying them now. I would definitely purchase again if the need arose. Appearance 1010 Sound 1010 Comfort 1010 OVERALL 1010 they really outperformed my more expensive Skullcandys and Im glad. Great job Cowin

Pros These are comfortable headphones made with what feel like quality materials. Im not an audiophile but I enjoy watching movies with these and occasionally listening to music and I am pleased with the sound quality. Cons The reason I purchased these headphones was to have active noise cancelling. There is a somewhat perceptible difference when turning on the noise cancellation but honestly, these are no Bose and they do not make the world go quiet. The headphones are replacing a set of wired Bose QC20is which do a very good job of active noise cancellation. I wore the Bose on multiple international flights and had what I thought were reasonable performance expectations. These Cowins do not meet that expectation. You get what you pay for. It will not even cancel out the majority of a table fan in the bedroom which is what these should be excellent. In summary, these are comfortable headphones with reasonable sound quality and comfort but the active noise cancelling is a marketing gimmick. Save you money for Bose if you really want feature.

I got these headphones during the last lightning deal. I have really gotten into headphones in the last few years Im no audiophile but like to think I know the difference between a good and bad pair of headphones. My budget for headphones is usually pretty tight so its important to me that I find good bang for the buck sets. I work from home so noise isnt an issue, so my goto pair for the day are my Sennheiser HD558s. Theyre light, comfortable and have great sound. I ordered these because I wanted a pair of bluetooth over the ears headphones. The wire of Sennheisers is too long and often gets in the way. The box these came in was nicer than expected I pad under 40 for these so I wasnt expecting much to be honest. Inside the box I found the headphones, a carrying pouch, a charging cable and a 3.5mm cable. Initial impression was that they looked and felt better than expected. I knew from other reviews that they were plastic, which doesnt necessarily bother me. The headphones are big the ear cups extend pretty far. The earpads are oval but on the small side. While these are over the ear headphones, I have a large head and large ears so these do rest on my ears a bit because the diameter of the opening is so small. The cushion padding is adequate though Im not fond of the material it tends to heat up easily. The screen part of the pad does have some padding, which is nice since the pads are on the shallow side my ears do press against the inside. I turned them on its nice that they ship with enough battery for you to try them and paired them with my phone, which was a painless process. Out of the box the sound wasnt bad, especially for the price. Bass wasnt as tight as I like and they were a bit muddy. This has definitely gotten better as Ive warmed them up a bit. The bass I was initially really disappointed with has gotten a lot better. Right out of the box these seemed to do a lot better with the vocals in music. The sound, overall is solid especially at this pricepoint. So far I have only used them as BT headphones and havent plugged in the 3.5mm cord, though I do like that this is an option. The BT range is excellent, far better than the pair of sports BT I have. So far Ive worn them for 12 hours at a time and they remain fairly comfortable. I had worried about comfort as I had read a few other review mention the clamping force. But even with my large head these have remained comfortable. My only complaint with comfort is that I wish the inner diameter of the ear pads were about twice as large. I have not yet done any traveling with these and work in a quite environment so I havent really put the active noise canceling through a proper test. I did try it out by turning on the shower and seeing how much noise was blocked out. With ANC the shower was still audible but there was a noticeable difference in how much could be heard. I imagine these wont block out all noise , but do block out a decent amount, allowing you to keep the volume lower. Overall Im very pleased with the build quality and sound of these. For the price point, these were pleasant surprises. My only complaint are the size of the earpads, which actually seems to be a pretty common issue for over the ear headphones My more expensive VModa LP2s have the same issue, even with their XL pads. Ill definitely be looking at Cowin headphones again.

I love these headphones and wear them every day to watch TV. They connect easily to my Samsung TV which has builtin Bluetooth. I wear these for hours at a time. The battery holds up well….One thing to note I have found that due to the swivel of the ear cups, The headphones are even more comfortable if worn with the buttonscup over the right ear. The ear cups swivel 90 in one direction but only slightly in the other direction. That is important for the most comfortable fit. The cups hollow fit completely over my ears, which reduces ear fatigue. I have had no ear fatigue with the buttons on my right side. After a few hours, I had slight ear fatigue with the buttons on my left side. Bottom line is to wear the cup with the buttons over your right ear. I definitely recommend these headphones.

I have upstairs neighbors that arent obnoxiously noisy, but when the dude above me is playing video games, it can get annoyingly loud. The floors seem to amplify normal walking from room to room too. Not loud enough to bother complaining to the leasing agency or to ask the people upstairs to take it down a few notches, but just enough to keep me constanty secondguessing whether or not I should. So I was on the fence about if I should bite the bullet with an expensive Bose headphones or should I go with the Corwin. I rolled the dice with the Corwin and it worked out really well. So well that Im writing this review, which Im usually too lazy andor easily distracted to do. So this is the exception.The Corwin headphones did EXACTLY what I hoped they would. In my case, when I flipped the switch from regular ol BT bluetooth to ANC active noise cancellng, it was like magic. It eliminated all of the bassy, pulsing, ambient noise made by the upstairs neighbors sound system and a lot of their footsteps too. Huge relief. They worked as advertised and I didnt have to drop a bundle on the Bose. Im 110 positive the Bose perform great but are they really worth the price I would have paid that much to drown out the noise from my neighbors. Thankfully, I didnt have to because in my situation, they worked out great.
