The real reason why I love these headphones? It’s not the noise cancellation. Honestly I hardly use that. On the other hand, the “Be Aware” mode is life changing. It puts a microphone to the world around me. Making me feel aware and safe ANYWHERE. I even use the Be Aware mode without music sometimes for extra security. The battery life on these headphones is unmatched too. I’ve only charged them once in all the months I’ve had/ used these. LTKSaleAlert LTKFindsUnder100 LTKTravel
