What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing gives conflicting ANC frequency figures: 4000 Hz in product details and up to 5000 Hz in feature text. The 50 dB ANC and 43-hour case-inclusive playback are manufacturer claims, not independently verified. It also lists a 43-hour battery life while feature text specifies 10 hours per charge and 43 hours with the case. The explicit contents list names eartips and a user manual, while feature text refers to playback with a case without confirming its inclusion. Check the selected listing for the case and exact specifications.
