What customers say about "Size & Weight"
Bang & Olufsen Beoplay H9 Beoplay Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphone
- The machining is gorgeous, comfortable, light but solid, the ear pads are absurdly soft and comfortable.
- Beautiful headphones, solid build quality. Definitely feel premium. Comfortable to wear and fairly light.
- Great sound - crisp and clear, design and quality, light and comfortable.
- The cups are so comfortable, and the whole thing is very light. It's not so light that you don't realize you're wearing headphones, but it's light enough to be comfortable for a several hour flight.
- The ear cups fold flat but not inward, so the headphones are a little large to store and carry around.
