What customers say about "Size & Weight"
Beats Solo 3 Wireless On-Ear Headphones - Asphalt Gray
  • They are so comfy even with my 3/4 size gauges, with them being metal it doesn't push them into my neck like some headsets do
  • The sound quality is amazing and its pretty light, so you don't really feel it after awhile.
  • These headphones are light weight and the fact that they are wireless makes them great for use while walking to work or moving about the house.
  • The only complaint for me is the headphone size is a little small but the same size as solo 2's.
  • Very light weight but not as comfortable as older ones
Bose QuietComfort 35 (Series II) Wireless Headphones, Noise Cancelling - Silver
  • Incredibly lightweight and comfortable
  • They are comfortable on my head, and I wear them sometimes for 6-8 hrs.
  • They are also comfortable & light weight. I have worn them for several hours & still were comfortable.
  • They feel super light. Whether they are or not for you is relative, but compared to the MDR-1000x, they are much lighter.
  • They seem cheaper. Not that they are, they are very well built, but I think in their striving for light weight they made them feel a bit cheaper.
  • I'm not yet used to keep it on my neck - too big for me, restricts my head movements

What customers say about "Features"
Beats Solo 3 Wireless On-Ear Headphones - Asphalt Gray
  • Fantastic battery life (havent charged them in three weeks, I use them 4 times a week at the gym)
  • The battery lasts weeks even when using it a couple hours a day. The bluetooth distance lasts well around the house.
  • Another pro is connectivity. I love how easy it is to just turn on the headphones and go.
  • The sound quality is great. I like the over the ear headphones better than the other type. They cancel out other sounds so you can really enjoy your music.
  • When you sweat, they slip off your head and the pads get squishy.
  • No Next/Previous track buttons.
  • Ears get too hot at gym because of the leather. I would really prefer if they made another sport line that contains cushion instead.
Bose QuietComfort 35 (Series II) Wireless Headphones, Noise Cancelling - Silver
  • Announces battery strength and paired devices when you turn them on
  • Microphone works very well for calls in both my home office and a very busy client site.
  • Has automatic sleep mode, so it's convenient if I forget it on my table turned on
  • Supports two devices. Works better than expected (no other headphones worked that well for me before)
  • Noice cancellation is perfect - all outside sounds are removed, but if I someone would talk loudly near by, I could hear it quietly.
  • Sound quality may not be up to far for some audiophiles (some reviewers have noted that Sony has better sound quality)
  • App does not remember what noice cancellation level I had set before (wanted to use it in a Low mode during 1st days, but now I got used to High mode).
  • Some small issues with switching between two devices. Got confused couple of times which device is being connected to, but overall it supports two devices best as from my experience with other devices.
