![Mpow H17 Active Noise Cancelling Headphones, [45H Playtime] Wireless Over-Ear Bluetooth 5.0 Headphone with Mic, Fast Charge,](https://images-eu.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/71-qjU0urxL._AC_UL160_SR160,160_.jpg)
Firstly, the headphones are nicely presented in retail packaging. Inside the box is a hard storage case, inside the case is the headset, a USB to Micro USB charging cable, a double ended 3.5mm AUX cable (for connecting directly to an audio device that doesn't have Bluetooth), a handy Airplane adapter and a warranty card, there is also a small but chunky User Manual, however only the first 10 pages are in English, but the information provided is sufficient.
The headphones are fairly lightweight, this can be attributed to the fact that they are predominantly manufactured from glossy plastic, except for the headband which is made from flexible steel, they look modern in design and feel relatively sturdy and well made. The oval ear cups are quite large and comfortably cup the ears, they measure approx. 10cm long x 8.2cm wide, they are not fixed but hinged, they can also be rotated and placed flat against the chest when worn around the neck. Each ear cup is made from dense foam and covered in soft faux leather, I found them to be very comfortable, even after prolonged periods of use. The headset is a good size and suitable for most head sizes, the headband can be adjusted by sliding the ear cups down, each side has approx 2.8cm of travel, which is reasonable.
The headphones were fully charged right out of the box, there is a battery indicator displayed on my iPhone which displays the current level of charge. They were very easy to pair with my iPhone, simply turn them on, hold down the power but until the tiny led flashes quickly and select device Mixcder E9 in your Bluetooth settings, there are audible voice prompts to confirm when pairing and connected.
Most of the controls are found on the right headphone, which includes; chunky power and volume buttons, the Active Noice Cancelling on/off switch is located on the left earphone. All the controls are easy to access and simple to use.
I listened to music on the Spotify & Amazon Music apps via my iPhone 7. I thought the sound quality was very impressive, the sound has a certain warmth to it, and the bass is punchy enough to satisfy most tastes. The sound clarity is also very good, it was easy to pick out individual sounds and instruments. I listened to various genres, and the headset continued to impress me. A selling feature of these headphones is the Active Noice Cancelling (ANC) function, there is a switch to turn it on and off, by default it is set to the off position, but when switched on I thought that the sound quality improved, it somehow sounded less muffled and much crisper. While listening to music through the headphones I sat next to a pair of external speakers playing a different song on full volume, and I could not hear any invasive sounds what so ever. If someone tries to talk to you while wearing these headphones, you won't hear a word that they are saying!
Overall, these headphones sound great, I can't find fault the way they look, or the sound that they project - thumbs up from me.
