PROS
- The noise-canceling ability of the N60 NC is utterly astounding.
- For noise-canceling headphones, they are portable and lightweight.
- To save battery life, the noise-canceling feature can be shut off, and the headphone still plays music.
CONS
- Unlike some of the competition, it does not use Bluetooth.
- The USB side of the charging cable is a little flimsy, and it's inconvenient to replace.
- Everyone can play, pause, and skip using the headphone controls, but only iPhone users can go back a track.
