Pros and cons

Pros

At 150g, the listed weight is low for buyers prioritising a light on-ear set.
Multipoint pairing may suit people switching between two paired devices for calls and media.
The app's 10-band EQ allows sound adjustment, while on-ear buttons provide direct controls.

Cons

No headphone jack is listed, so wired listening through a 3.5mm connection is not supported by the stated configuration.
The USB-C charging cable is explicitly described as not included.

What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The listing is inconsistent about fit, labelling the headphones both “On Ear” and “Over Ear”. Treat the product as on-ear based on the form-factor listing and confirm fit expectations if this distinction matters. Its battery-life and quick-charge figures are manufacturer claims, with no operating conditions supplied. The title's Amazon-exclusive wording is not accompanied by evidence clarifying exclusivity.

Only aggregate rating information is supplied, with a small set of ratings all in the five-star category. That is a positive but limited signal, and it does not identify what customers liked or establish how the headphones perform. There is no written customer feedback to assess comfort, battery life or call quality.
