Not cheap, but they justify the investment for frequent travellers, remote workers, or serious listeners.

@nick.bttr.reviews Battery life is fantastic: 30 hours with ANC on, plus quick charging (3 mins = 3 hours playback). Perfect for long flights or extended work sessions.

@manton Agree it’s the Notes section that’s the biggest issue. I understand providing a way to engage as a brand with other short-form platforms is important, but the fact each note doesn’t have its own URL on your site, so it can’t be linked to or embedded in a full post, means it’s very limited.
