What customers say about "Size & Weight"
Audio-Technica ATH-ANC500BTBK QuietPoint Wireless Active Noise-Cancelling Headphones, Black
- They are lightweight, comfortable, and sound good. There's a little extra bass if you're looking for that and the highs are crisp for a pair of bluetooth headphones.
- The construction is very good along with the weight. It's not too heavy and it's not too light.
- I was surprised at how light these are and although I haven't worn them for long periods yet.
- The plastic feels a little lightweight but the light weight is appreciated after wearing them for a long period of time.
- The Audio Technica phones are not comparatively light-weight and they are less compact when folded than the Sony headphones.
Audio-Technica ATH-ANC700BT QuietPoint Wireless Active Noise-Cancelling
- I'm really picky when it comes to how headphones fit. These are fantastic. The size and depth of the ear cups are perfect.
- They are comfortable enough to listen to for hours, but I don't think I'd listen to them for that long. Size and weight are perfectly balanced.
- They are very light on your head, not too heavy at all. Build quality is decent, but I think the M50x headphones are still built better, especially with the detachable cord quality.
- Extremely light and comfortable. I had these on during a long day of traveling for about 8 hours total and it honestly didn't get uncomfortable at any point in time.
- They have a built in microphone, the build quality is also very nice despite looking small, they are rather heavy.

What customers say about "Features"
Audio-Technica ATH-ANC500BTBK QuietPoint Wireless Active Noise-Cancelling Headphones, Black
- I used these headphones on the airplane. The noise cancelling definitely makes a difference.
- Very comfortable headphone. Base is excellent while delivering good quality sound for mid and high.
- The ear pads don't fully create a seal around the ears. So noise still creeps in even if the noise cancelling is activated.
- I will be returning these soon if I can not get the Bluetooth to work. The manual says it should take 4 hrs to charge, 24 hrs later and it's still a red charging light with NO Bluetooth connection.
- The ear cups are very shallow- these are more like on ear headphones, and they are definitely not over the ear headphones.
Audio-Technica ATH-ANC700BT QuietPoint Wireless Active Noise-Cancelling
- Good sound quality. I don't think it'll be winning any awards, but once you set the EQ correctly you can get good to great sound out of these.
- BT connection is very solid (no complaints) connects to the last paired device.
- The touch interface is honestly pretty terrible. It looks cool, but actual buttons are so much more functional.
- Noise Cancelling is not great, but it's not the worst I've used, either. It reduces a decent amount of low frequency noise, but anything mid-range or voices are clear as day.
- The touch controls are just awful, even after using these for a couple of weeks I'm still not used to it and end up pulling out my phone more than I'd like to.

What customers say about "Power"
Audio-Technica ATH-ANC500BTBK QuietPoint Wireless Active Noise-Cancelling Headphones, Black
- Battery seem to last quite a while, I have only recharge the battery a few times and I use them for a few hours a day every day.
- The battery life is great, sound quality I feel is really good, and I like that I can use a cord to connect them even when the battery dies but that still has not happened.
- The battery life is very reasonable, and the range is fantastic. I can be clear across the office and still hear these.
- These headphones are great. Battery duration is really great, although only using it on Bluetooth during outdoor trips.
- The battery is dead after two days or less of NO USE.
Audio-Technica ATH-ANC700BT QuietPoint Wireless Active Noise-Cancelling
- I almost never have to charge these. Maybe once every two or three weeks, using them for a total of 2-3 hours every weekday.
- The price is good. The sound quality is good, and the battery life is amazing.
- They're comfortable enough for all-day use, the battery life is exceptional, and the noise-cancelling helps with my subway commute and distracting office banter.
- Battery life is incredible - lasted my entire trip to Italy (over 12 hours in the air) on less than half the battery.
- Battery life is incredible, for me it will last for at least a week without charge, many times even more.
