AO Active Noise Cancelling Wireless Bluetooth Headphones - M7 (Black)

I travel a lot for work and needed to reduce the engine noise. These do great. Not perfect, but I'd say they reduce the sound by 20 decibels. My ears used to ring for a couple days after I flew. Now they don't. Sound quality is good, but I really only listen to podcasts on my phone.

I enjoy all types of music from instrumental, urban, modern and orchestra. So I decided to test these AO headphonese, with ANC active noise cancel on and off at the office environment. Pros: compliments, comfort feel on my head, simple to use and stylish for the fashion concerned person. No battery needed since it has a built in charger battery like most phones and modern gadgets. Comes with a cord for when the battery is drained, you can still use them directly with your choise of device. ANC works good I can't say great like my name brand set but good if your not wearing glasses I say that since if there is a gap then the quality drops on the sound. The ear pads can be removed so when there is wear and tear you have replacement options. Comes with a case to protect your investment, audio controls are directly on the side built in on the protein layer it's between the multifunction pairring circle. It's compatible with any micro USB wire of choice. Sound is good not big brand great but good. Cons: the provided wire 3.5mm jack just has a on call receiver button, it would have been better to provide one with volume control as well for the price. The volume controls takes series getting use two since they are not pop out, it would take some serious getting use to blindly but it can be done. If you wear glasses specially thick frames, the small gap allows you to question the active noise cancelling. With that being said results may vary if you wear thin frame glasses, at the office there were small repair adjustments and I was still able to listen to what was going on. From minor small silver wear sounds from the near kitchen, to the minor hammer hits on the counter. With that being said the ANC technology is not strong enough to block common out door city sounds, or near by Starbucks in a mall noise. But indoor quality did improve dont expect total silence. For the price and impression I got this is not worth $119 USD, more like $85 If you ask me in my opinion DJ Kali can explain it better with his phrase. Overall we can't get everything we want for a budget headphone set, but they are slowly bringing better product quality. I feel that they have the technology and equipment concept at grasp, and soon the next AO model might impress me I hope my honest review helps others. Music is what gives me a boost in my line of work as a designer.

Out of the box, great fit for my big head. Sound quality in the house is great. Next test will be in the shop wood working. If they perform as well out there they will be a steal for under $20.00.

I recently purchased the AOM5 (a cheaper model) and was stunned by the sound quality and noise cancelling that a $40 pair of headphones produced, I'm now a die hard fan of AO Products and as an upgrade purchased the AOM7 and let me just tell you, the best noise cancelling I've ever seen on a unit under $250, I will say that sound quality is the same as the M5 but the noise cancelling tho, overall would recommend to anyone!

Truly one of the worst, if not the worst headphones I’ve ever tried. I had them on for about 2 minutes. They are horribly uncomfortable. To small for my head, fully extended. And oddly feel like they are angled towards the back of my head, that’s not an adjustment issue. Weird. Oh yeah, the sound. SUCKS on all levels. They just sound flat. Nothing there. Back they go. As quickly as possible.

I bought these for my daughter who has sensory issues. They fit her great & she is very happy with them.

It was good for about 2 weeks then it started to rattle in the left earpiece when you would move it

UPDATED REVIEW Jan 23 2019: So, these had been great for months. I thought they were well worth the money, sounded great, worked great, looked good. Ticked all the boxes for me. Now, they will at seemingly random times just stop working, requiring me to completely unpair them from whatever device they are connected to (iPhone, Pixel, PC, makes no difference), and re-pair the headphones for them to work again. Battery life has become abysmal. At first they lasted an entire work day at about 60% volume, even with ANC turned on. Now, I am lucky to get 4-5 hours at the same volume with ANC off. With ANC on, I get 2 hours tops. Pretty disappointed in these, especially after how promising they were at first. I'll be sticking with brands I've heard of in the future :( ORIGINAL REVIEW: Great bluetooth headphones for the money. They certainly aren't quite as good as a $500 pair of B&W's, but they mute out the hum of office life very effectively with ANC turned on, and sound 90% as good for 1/4 the price. Audio is clean but powerful, no distortion even at high volume, and I am very happy that AO didn't overdrive the bass like Beats and some off-brand models do. I have yet to unexpectedly run out of battery, and I use them for 6-8 hours at a time without charging, with ANC turned on. I like that they are pretty non-descript, not a fan of all the headphones that come in stupid neon colors and have unnecessary decoration all over them. They're also pretty comfortable to wear, I have them on pretty much all day long on most workdays. I also like that they use a standard micro-USB cable to charge, instead of a barrel connector like my old Sony ones used. My only complaint is that the buttons on the right side can be difficult to feel for when you're wearing them, but that's a minor thing for me, not enough to deduct a star.
