I also have these headphones and they sound great...very well balanced. Bluetooth works without any issues and the battery life has never been an issue for me. An excellent deal at this price!
Thanks OP, very tempting. Unfortunately it doesn't have any waterproof reading, and I was looking for a pair for the gym as well as office calls. Darn.
I've tried about 20 headsets for work from Jabra, POLY (AKA Plantronics), Sennheiser and Logitech and the only one that sounds great to "Others" is:
The POLY UC Focus:
The BOOM Mic makes all the difference and the active noise cancellation (For You and for Others) is Excellent. I called someone from my car at 100 KM/H with the windows open and they said it sounded like I was at my desk.
The one I like the most for Music or for Calls where I don't have to speak much is:
Both have about 13 hours of battery life and it has Not changed in 2 years of daily use.
And here's a tip, try to Avoid using PSTN (Home Phone or Mobile Phone) when joining Video calls, instead use your PC or MAC. PSTN has a call quality of about 60 Kbps but these headsets and the Video Conferencing solutions can easily do 100 Kbps + (Just to compare a Music CD would be about 320 Kbps.)
Any recommendations under $100? Would these Sennheisers do the trick?

You wore a noise cancelling headset while going 100KM/H with the window open ???
Got mine today. Headphone sound quality is passable. The mic is surprisingly decent.
Just out of curiosity and for reference, would anyone know how's this headphone's sound quality (for music listening) compared to the more popular higher end true wireless ones (e.g. Sony WF-1000XM3, Jabra Elite 75t, Apple AirPods Pro, Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2, etc)?
