The Marshall Motif A.N.C ear buds are a very compact, lite and a well put together ear bud. The app you download controls everything is also well crafted. Many settings can be customized such as the equalizer which has 3 presets, the first is locked to the Original Marshal sound, the other 2 can be set to Hip-Hop, , Rock, Spoken, pop and Electronic style settings.
The Motif has ample sound cancelling abilities. I tested it while mowing my yard with a loud push mower. The mower noise did not affect my music listening. I was still able to hear the mower, but the sound level was greatly muted. This A.N.C setting (and transparency mode) can also be customized in the app.
The buds come with 3 sizes of rubber ear bud tips, Small, medium and dumbo. I of course used the dumbo. From the factory they have the medium installed and it was letting in more than usual sound. I put the larger ones on, and this solved the issue.
Charging is a snap; it uses a USB C, or it can be charged on a charging pad with makes great at my desk. I can charge my phone and earbuds simultaneously. The buds are good for about 4.5 hours of play time with A.N.C (6 without) before needing to be returned to the case to charge them. The case will charge to full about 4 times or so before needing to be charged itself. (more without A.N.C)
The app allows you to increase the lifetime of your internal batteries by turning on the eco charging feature. This only charges your buds to 80%. I assume constantly full charging the battery shortens the lifespan.
The touch sensitive buds allow you to: Play, Pause, Skip, answer calls (built in dual mic’s for clear calls) activate/deactivate A.N.C and Transparency mode. The touch can also be customized to the actions you use more.
When playing the music, I noticed that the high and middle tones are almost spot on and need no tweaking. As for the bass, you will have to adjust to your liking via the app. After adjusting the bass, I noticed It could have been a little deeper and more powerful but it still wasn’t that bad. I did not detect any sound distortion at any level, low to extremely high. The frequency range for the buds is 20-20,000 Hz. The physical range of the buds is about 30 feet, so you don’t have to lug your device around.
The buds are somewhat waterproof, so if you are out and the weather changes you don’t have to worry about them. They can be rinsed with water!!, Not so much the case though, but it is splash resistant.
I think these buds are a nice addition to any audio files active lifestyle. From running to mowing a very bumpy yard, they didn’t budge or give me ear fatigue (sore from using too long). I would recommend them to family and friends and gets 4 out of 5 stars for me as the bass could use some additional punch. This can probably be done by a firmware update.

This is a fun set of earbuds that brings the nostalgia of the Marshall brand to your ears. With 20 hours of wireless playtime, active noise cancelling, and the Marshall sound behind it, the Motif A.N.C. cuts out the outside noise to give you big sound in a small package.
If you’ve ever played an instument through a Marshall stack, the earbud case will make you smile. It looks like a tiny Marshall tube amp, complete with logo and that leather-ish feel. Bonus, the case can be charged wirelessly or using the included USB-C cable. Inside, the buds are sensibly shaped, with protruding parts that look like mini wireless microphones. Aesthetically, the look of the Motif A.N.C. is perfect for musicians.
Sound-wise, these earbuds give some big, booming sound that you might expect from something with the Marshall name on it. And with active noise cancelling, the Motif A.N.C. locks you in and shuts everything out. Music sounds rich and podcasts are clear. I did experience a few Bluetooth-related drops, but it is a well-balanced, full sound experience.
Control actions can be performed by touch on the earbuds themselves, and I’ve found them to be a little too sensitive. I would find myself skipping to the next song or pausing something by accident a little too often. However, the app allows you to customize these controls to your individual needs, from noise control to voice assistance or even to do nothing. The app also allows for other customizations like equalizer controls and eco charging, which extends the life span of the Motif A.N.C. by limiting their full charge. Overall, these earbuds deliver.
Marshall’s foray into the wireless earbud territory is a success. With full, rich sound, customizable controls via the free app, and true noise cancelling that keeps you zoned in, the Motif A.N.C. is a great option both in look and sound. Easy to recommend.
Full disclosure, I received this product for my honest, unbiased review.

I’ve owned the Apple Earbud 1st generation since they came out. The battery life has dwindled on them so I needed a replacement. I have a Marshall wireless speaker unit which I enjoy a lot. The company is doing a nice job of branding the Marshall name on some quality products.
I’ve used these wireless headphones for over a week now and believe they are a quality device. The audio quality exceeded my expectations and the comfort level is excellent – especially with the choice of sizes for your ears.
Battery life has also exceeded my expectations as I was running them for over 4 hours without the need to charge them. I put them into the charging base after a four hour use and didn’t need to charge them again for several days.
Connecting them to my phone was simple and in line with most other quality bluetooth devices. I believe these are quality headphones and a value at this price point. The Marshall branding also provide a source for conversation when people see the store/charging unit.

Wireless ANC headphones are a dime a dozen these days. Every company has their own version of wireless headphones and if you aren’t an audiophile it’s hard to tell the difference. I’m always looking for unique headphones that find a way to stand out and these Marshall ANC headphones are a great example of using design as a selling point.
The Marshall Motif have a really unique design that holds very true to its amp routes. The feel of the case is a leathery type feel that really stands out over all the slick plastic cases of other brands. It’s a very manageable size that easily fits in my pocket and the small touches like the est. 1962 logo that’s only visible when you flip the case open is great. The buds themselves are very very light and fit in the ear very well.
The sound quality is great, Marshall did a great job on the eq of the headphones, I haven’t had to adjust the eq in app at all. The tone is rich and crisp without the really over pronounced bass that a lot of headphones have.
The app works well too. It’s easy to use and lets you adjust eq and switch between ANC, bypass and transparency mode. Overall simple and easy to use.
The anc works ok. It’s not the best I’ve ever used but it does drown out some noise. If this is the main thing you are looking for then there are probably better options.
Overall I think these are great sounding and fitting headphones that offer great design and nothing overly complicated. Battery life is outstanding and have very few complaints.

Motuf Active Noise Cancelling earbuds. Marshall has another winner to add to their Bluetooth lineup. Everything, from the outer packaging to the storage case to the actual earbuds speaks of quality. Well made, appear to be quite durable and should provide years of listening pleasure. Fit is secure without feeling like you have to cram them into your ear canal to get them to stay put. The three sizes of ear tips included make it easy to customise to your liking. Functionality, control and customization of sounds and features all revolve around Marshall’s App. The same App is used for many of Marshall’s Bluetooth products so if you already have one of their Blutooth speakers or Active Noise Cancelling over-the-ear headphones you are quickly up and running. Quite a few options are available to the user from the Home menu. Three modes, Active Noise Cancellation On or Off and a “Transparency Mode” which seems to me, identical to Noise Cancellation Off. Bass response is especially reduced when ANC is off. Equaliser options include Marshall, Rock, Spoken, Pop, Hip-Hop and Electronic. Unfortunately, manual adjustment of the five frequencies is not available. Touch control for option selection can be enabled/disabled and noise cancellation amount can be adjusted to suit your surroundings. An Eco charging option allows for extened lifespan by reducing earbud maximum charge to 80% and finally, the option to turn audio notifications on or off. One option that is missing is the ability to adjust volume balance between left and right buds.
Marshall has developed an impressive set of feature-packed earbuds that I can enthusiastically recommend..

I own a lot of Marshall gear. Ranging from vintage tube guitar heads and cabinets, to bluetooth speakers, and headphones. I can say without a doubt that this company has always been about sound quality. Regardless if you are talking about blistering guitar amps cranked in an arena, or streaming your favorite band to bring your own concert home. Wherever you are, Marshall has you covered. I could go on and on about all of the other Marshall products I use, but this is about these earbuds.
The first thing that grabs my attention about these, is that in keeping the Marshall theme of being based around their legendary guitar amps, the packaging and look of these is perfect. The case looks like the tolex on my guitar gear. It’s textured and feels great. It has the Marshall logo. It’s USB-C. It has magnets that suck the earbuds into place when stowed and the case charges the earbuds every time you put them in the case. All excellent so far, right?
Maybe it can get even better. Which leads me to sound quality. The most important feature of audio equipment. Again, keeping with the Marshall brand, these sound excellent. They have enough range to satisfy just about any type of music you prefer. There are six types of EQ’s available in the app and you can select three favorites to use as custom EQ’s when you long press on either earbud depending on how you set up your preferences in the app. My only complaint is that there is currently no way to create your own custom presets. Kinda weird Marshall! That said, the available presets do work well for different genres.
The noise canceling works well for me. I mainly use these when I am grocery shopping and running errands and they block most all unwanted noise.
My single and only complaint when it comes to earbuds, is the comfort factor. This has zero to do with Marshall and all to do with my personal preference. I see people wearing earbuds for work and wonder how they can literally go for hours with earbuds on. I guess I just have over sensitive ear holes, but I am ear fatigued after about 30 minutes wearing buds. That is even with the correct ear rubber pieces installed, to which you receive three sizes in the box. Sometimes I don’t want to wear full size over-the-ear headphones. When I want to run an errand like grocery shopping or to take a call, these earbuds are what I grab.
PROS:
Design is top notch and classic Marshall
Magnetic case charges headphones
USB-C
Battery life is awesome
Great sound quality
A.N.C. works as expected
Touchpads are great and long press customizable
Super quick and convenient
So small you can put them in your jeans pocket
CONS:
Comfort
No custom EQ currently available

Having 2 other in ear wireless headphones of the same price range to compare to, I have found these Marshall Motif ANC ones to be the most comfortable as well as the most capable. I have had these earbuds now for 5 days and have had the opportunity to use them in various settings – from biking and running to use in an airport/airplane trip. These are by far the best sounding headphones in this category I have had.
The product comes packaged with elite level packaging and contains the headphones, the charging case, the user manual and the extra 2 sizes of tips. I found that the already attached medium size was perfect.
The charging case has a small footprint and indeed charges the buds quickly and does indeed provide the 20 hours of charge. Be mindful that it will be less if the active noise cancelling mode is on all the time.
Connecting to my phone and app was as easy as a Bluetooth device should be and immediately upon connection to the app, the buds received a firmware update that went smoothly. Within the app you can change the EQ settings and various other settings for the buds. One complaint I have with the app is that there are only a handful of preset EQ settings (6) but no way to dial in a custom EQ and save that as a preference. Seems like an easy in app solution and as everyone’s listening preferences are different, I am surprised that such a great product does not have this feature.
The comfort of these is the best I have had in any of the headphones I have owned. On my recent flight, I pretty much had these in for 4 hours straight and felt no ear fatigue or discomfort.
The sound of these is simply stellar for such a product! Sound is such a personal issue for us all and I found that my favorite music pieces sounded perfect with these buds.
All in all, Marshall has a winner here! Two small changes would make these perfect – First, add a custom EQ setting in the app so a user can dial in their exact preference and second, be able to control the volume from the earbuds.
You won’t regret this purchase!

I will never forget the day that I took my fiddle and plugged it into my roommate’s Marshall Amp. It made sounds that I didn’t even know existed. On that day, I fell in love with Marshall. When I saw earphones from Marshall, I just had to see if they are anything like their amps. The answer?
First Impression:
My first impression was typical of Marshall. Everything was packaged very nicely. The earphone holder doubles as a charging station like many others. The earphones sit in there very nicely and securely. The lid is easy to open and stays closed. And for that special touch, the cover is made of the same material (simulated maybe?) as their amps. Looking at it looks Marshall all the way.
The App is solid and offers adjustments for sound, Automatic Noise Cancellation (ANC) Transparency (TRA), Equalization, and touch controls.
Performance:
To test these, I used my Samsung S22 Ultra phone with Apple Music as the source. I hit on most genres of music including bluegrass, freak folk, jazz, and classical piano. But most of my review centered around rock and metal, because after all, what says metal like Marshall.
*** Note *** – If you do not select ANC or TRA, it defaults these features to off. You need to turn on one or the other, otherwise the music sounds flat. For me the best sound came with ANC selected, with TRA being a close second. Off didn’t sound that good to me.
When listening to most non-rock genres, the music was clean, clear, and accurate. By accuracy, I mean it sounds like it does with other sources such as vinyl and CDs without any enhancement. I personally like enhancement, but I prefer accuracy first, and then I will tweak it to match my preferences. It is far easier to enhance music than to produce it accurately, and Marshall did a great job producing accurate music with such small earphones.
For metal I hit across 70’s, 80’s, 90’s and current metal. Some of the artists I listened to was Suicidal Tendencies, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Anthrax, Faith No More, Social D, Rage Against the Machine, Alice in Chains, Jimmy Hendrix, Iron Maiden, Iron Butterfly, The White Stripes, Metallica, AC/DC, Ted Nugent, Rush, Led Zeppelin, The Offspring, Drowning Pool, Cradle of Filth, The Vandals, Kiss, Bad Religion, JFA, Isocracy, and many others. I put hours of metal through these to see just how they sounded with a variety of metal through many generations.
Bottom line, all of the rock music sounded really good. It didn’t have deep thumping bass like many earphones and cans do today. But that is a good thing, because the original rock from these generations did not have deep thumping bass. It had a tight and deep base, and that is exactly what these earphones reproduce. I easily put 100’s of songs through these, and every song sounded great. As far as musical reproduction is concerned, these Marshall Motif A.N.C. earphones sounded awesome in the rock and metal category.
One thing I noticed with these earphones is that I never got tired of listening to music through them. Some earphones and headphones will tire me after extended listening, usually because of certain enhancements in the sound. These Marshalls never tired my ears, even after hours of listening.
The fit of these earphones paired really well in my ears. Most earphones fall out of my ears, even when keeping my head still. I don’t know why, but it seems my ears don’t like them. With the Marshall’s, the right earbud worked great, and I had to change the left earbud for the larger size. After that, they stayed in for hours without falling out. And I really liked the knurled posts, they made it easy to handle the earphones.
Now for my only complaint. The equalizer (Equaliser in the app) offers 3 presets. The first is the original Marshall sound and not changeable. The second and third allow you to select presets. For me, preset two was set to Rock, and preset three was set to Hip-Hop. My problem is that none of the presets are customizable, nor do they offer a custom preset to tweak it to your liking. If they offered a custom preset, I would easily rate these a 5. But to me, this is an important feature that most today offer. If they add this in a future update, rest assured my rating will be a solid 5 out of 5.
Conclusion:
I have quite a few sets of cans (headphones). Each one is the best I have for a specific genre of music, and when switching genres, I will often change headphones. But I only have 1 set of earphones that I use. It is great for easy genres like jazz, easy listening, classical, etc. For rock and metal, they are shallow and easily distort. Metallica’s Master of Puppets destroyed those earphones, but the Marshall’s played them loud and strong, and sounded just like they sound on other systems and in concert. I am very happy to now have the Marshall Motif A.N.C. earphones as my absolute favorite set for rock and metal. I have listened to and reviewed many earphone sets, but none of them sound as good as the Marshall Motif A.N.C earphones for rock and Metal. I highly recommend these earphones.

These earbuds are awesome. First, I love the way they charge. You can go ahead and plug the case in like just about every wireless earbuds out there, or you can just put your case on a wireless charger. I know there are others out there that do this, but this is the first that I’ve owned and the convenience is great.
I was a little annoyed that you can’t sync the earbuds up without downloading the app. I think its just tedious and makes it more annoying to try and use the earbuds with another device. That being said, the actual process is really smooth and easy. I was a little disappointed that with the ANC and other features it isn’t always clear what setting you’re on without looking at the app and I’d like it to be a little more user friendly for when you don’t want to pull your phone out of your pocket.
All the sound comes through clearly and they actually have pretty good connection to my phone and I could listen to my music while mowing my whole lawn but leave my phone on our patio table. It only really got fuzzy or started to stutter at the very far end of my back yard. Admittedly it didn’t reach the front yard, but who can expect Bluetooth to go through a house?
It took me a bit to find if it was water proof / resistant. It has some, and I’m not worried about sweat or getting caught in the rain. But at this price I’ll probably be a little hesitant to use it at the beach or pool where my kids may surprise me with a bucket of water.
They are solid and well built, the case and headphones look sleek and stylish. It comes with different size earbud plugs so you can pick a size that is best for you. I use the smallest and it fits comfortably with no aching after an extended period of time and it still holds solidly in my ear. I did notice that the noise cancellation worked pretty well but I did have a little noise that I think was from sound coming around the buds. I probably could have used a bigger size and still been relatively comfortable, but I still wouldn’t consider these a replacement for true ear protection if you were thinking of using these on a loud worksight.
Overall these are really nice earbuds that I would be more than happy to recommend if you can afford the slightly higher price. But in the end you get what you pay for and they are well worth it.

The Motif ANC In-Ear headphones offers signature Marshall styling in a discrete, yet rugged design while maintaining the tone Marshall is known for. The design of the earbuds don’t just look tough, they are also IPX5 rated while the scratch resistant case is IPX4. I am not sure what material voodoo Marshall has cooked up for the case but so far it’s scratch free and the cracked leather look is a nice nod to their roots. The case can be charged with either the included USB C cable or wirelessly, offering a claimed 20 hours of playback. The earbuds offer a respectable 4.5 hours of playback while a quick 15-minute charge will provide an hour of listening.
Sound wise they are really good. Compared to my AirPods Pro, the default EQ is rich and offers enhanced mid-range and low end. Marshall also provides 5 other EQ presets to dial in the sound to match your content. Everything from blues rock like The Black Keys and the indie sounds of Florence + The Machine to progressive jams of Electric Light Orchestra and heavy riffs of Gojira all sound great despite their different, complex tonality. The earbuds feature auto play/pause with removal and with familiar touch controls, you can easily change between ANC (active noice cancelation), transparency mode, and off. Three tip sizes are included to ensure proper fit. For me, the tips seal so well that even with ANC off I have to enable transparency mode to adequately hear my surroundings. ANC also works fantastic for when I need a little less external input like doing yard work. I like how you can customize the Motif for your taste such as the interaction sounds, ANC/transparency levels, touch control actions, and even extend the battery lifespan by setting an 80% charge option.
For the price, I feel they are good value and offer strong sound and performance. The Motif ANC headphones are a great choice regardless of your preferred music genre, providing rich Marshall tone in a small, striking design.

What a really cool set of true wireless earbuds! As a guitar player, of course I was enthralled with the Marshall brand and the case is designed to mimic the iconic looking Marshall amps (two of which I happen to own). The case uses a standard USB-C cable which goes along with all of my other Apple cables I own. The build quality is solid for both the earbuds and the case. Setup was super easy. When you open the case for the first time, you’ll see the standard blink blue light on the front as it searches for a bluetooth device to pair with. Pairing them with my iPhone was as simple as going to my Bluetooth settings and selecting it.
While I was able to get it connected without the Marshall app, I downloaded it after pairing it to the phone and I was easily able to control the active noise canceling. It also has an equalizer and I was able to select either one of the standard equalizer presets or set my own custom configuration. I also like that the earbuds offer touch controls which are user customizable. Really, the only knock I am going to give Marshall is that there isn’t an option for the touch control setting to pause playback.
The sound is quite good for a pair of earbuds at this price point. Great highs. Solid bass. I listen to a lot of classic rock (e.g Grateful Dead, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd), alternative rock (e.g. Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nirvana, Green Day) and Jazz & Blues (e.g. Miles Davis, BB King, Stevie Ray Vaughan) and they all sounded great!
I also appreciate the Eco Charging mode. which increases the earbud life span by limiting the full charge to 80%. A really nice add and a nice feature that I wish other manufacturers would adopt. All-in-all, a great choice to add to my earbud collection.
Doom –
A gift purchase. Been told they work really well. They fit perfectly as well.
edson –
Great sound and comfort but the talking feature stinks! Had so many complaints about people not able to hear me. I really wanted to love them but hopefully they will improve that feature. I returned them.
jdbigjonson –
Good sound, stays in your ears, fits good. Wish it had more transparency . Overall happy
Ring –
honestly the audio quality didn’t impress me and the size is big.
Dkurtw51 –
Connected easily , good sound. I read reviews before purchasing. And was pretty excited about them. Turns out about the same as my apple pros. I love marshals stuff. But expected better. Best Buy took for ever to get them to me.
Ep24 –
Personally, I think they are up there with the Airpods Pro, but with a few flaws though. Case is a little flimsy, touch response sometimes does not detect the the correct amount of touches, and phone call audio could be improved. Listening to music on these is amazing though. Marshall needs to focus on the app as well its not the best. I wish there was an option for 4.5 stars. Will give it a 5.

NOISE CANCELLATION REALLY WORKS WELL, THE MAIN REASON I PURCHASED BESIDES THE FACT THAT I HAVE OTHER MARSHALL PRODUCTS AND KNOW THE BRAND.
BradJames –
Very cute and comfortable to use and the brand itself is amazing

This is the best pair of headphones I’ve tried on the market to date. The noise cancellation works great and the sound quality is stellar. The comfort level is better than others I’ve tried also.

Worst headphones ive ever purchased.
Bought these thinking marshall was a good name for sound, wow was i wrong. They can not make BLUETOOTH products to save their life.
* They require GPS and BLUETOOTH to use their app (which is the only easy way to adjust any setting) this method saves life on the headphones but kills your phone. Not a solid trade off.
* they disconnect constantly on my s22 ultra. Contacted support 3 times and they have not been able to fix this, im seeing a lot of the negative reviews are the same issue. This started for me only a week into owning them. Ive tried everything they have said, clearing cashe, full hardware reset. You can be listening no problem and they turn off even at full power out lf nowhere, or you go to connect they wont until you preform a hard reset each time. Try doing that a few times youll be ripping your hair out.
*the ANC is poorly made. The headphones are not loud, but when the wind blows with ANC the volume goes so high it defens you, but when theres no outside sound the headphones are too quiet at full volume. Theres no in between.
* the headphones have metal knurrling on the bottom end that digs into your ear. If you wear a hat, beanie, any head cover it will exacerbly dig into your ears and hurt badly as it rips your sensitive ear skin.
*any phonecall im on the people say that it sounds like im far away then walking closer to the microphone when i talk. MARSHALL put all the design into the speakers but no time or effort into the microphone.
*the only positive of these headphones is they sound clear. Although that is entirely not worth the negatives. This is the worst experience with marshall, i liked their guitar amps and thought aonce thats their experience and expertise they would make good bluetooth headphones but this shows me they have not perfected not even slightly ironed out any issues with bluetooth conectivity.
*i highly recommend avoiding these headphones at all costs.

These headphones look extraordinary and fit amazingly well. I have been a long time beats user that wanted an aesthetic change so I ordered these beautiful earbuds. I love Marshall amps and the sound was amazing when they worked properly.
Unfortunately, those are the only 3 things I enjoyed about the Motifs. I opened the box and paired them, no issue. Then I tried doing the firmware update and this is where things fell apart. It hit the halfway point and then froze. After multiple resets and no clear threads online on how to fix the issue, I just tried enjoying some music. The external app was intuitive. I played around with the long press settings and no matter what, could not get the headphones to switch ANC and transparency mode by long pressing the left or right pod.
I will keep an eye out on Marshall and hope that they release a new version in the future.

The sound is good, comfortable, the battery lasts quite a long time.
HenryB –
Its ok. Not what i truly expected though. I wanted something more quality based.
Jules –
Great sound, very stylish look, nice and compact to fit in your pocket
Archie –
I have different marshall headphones. You can’t beat the sound quantity of marshall.
Steveslime –
I researched many wireless headphones before purchasing these, they sound amazing and look very unique. I’m very happy with my decision. The case is the only thing keeping them from 5 stars. It looks and feels great, but the hinges have already loosened up. Just a bit, but it is noticeable.
QuintenM –
The best earbuds I’ve ever purchased. Amazing sound quality and super comfortable to wear. Plus, the case is cool lol.
AlbertoMontanarella –
Perfect solution to Apple AirPods Pro, cheaper with a perfect sound
DavidJ –
I had to returned by a malfunction. But the design was dope.
Jkppd –
Disappointing from something with the Marshall name. Sound is ok if you sit still, don’t move or sweat. Don’t stay in the ears with any of the ear pieces.going straight back to apple AirPods.
OscarB –
Great sound like always from Marshall and noise cancelling excellent
GUALO –
Excellent wireless headphones from Marshall I purchased for my son
Lindsey –
I bought these as a gift for my husband and he’s a big Marshall brand fan. Unfortunately, these head phones like to disconnect and not hold a charge. We were really surprised by this since the other Marshall speakers that we have work great, but these kinda suck. We are currently talking with the manufacture to see if we can get a refund or a new set. After reading more reviews online it seems that this is a common issue with these earbuds.
NamD –
Nice sound quality. Fit my ears perfectly. I wish it could connect multiple devices.
potatofarm –
used it for 3 weeks.
i like the fit, that was the most important thing for me, cause i have fit issues with lot of other popular headsets including samsung and sony. people have complained about the metal part rubbing against the ear and hurting. i think that will be user specific. its not an issue for me.
The number one reason i still tried despite use reviews is sound. i have other marshall blue tooth speaker and love them. this doesn’t disappoint. ANC is perfect, enough to negate noises, occasional loud sounds makes it through which i actually like,. no ear pressure.
mine got updated and doesn’t have connectivity issues that people have complained about.

Sound quality is very good no doubt, it’s smooth and clear, ANC is also good, but it could be better, it’s not that powerful. But overall I loved it.

I decided to buy these headphones for one reason only, they have the initial of my first name lol, and I never imagined that they would have a very good sound…half the price of the Apple ones and much better sound 150% RECOMMENDED

This MOTIF AND ear-in wireless headphones are suitable for those that are on the go! It could’ve been a 5-star if there was a volume control sensor for them.
