Quote from MIX MASTER ICE :

This model is several years old and uses the old Bluetooth version 4.0 . Up to 8 hours playtime (probably half that in reality) is also not good. Hard pass on these.

Product description clearly states Bluetooth 5.0 in no less than three locations.

Lol indeed it does.

I bought these for my son at $40 and thought it was a good deal. He loves them, and I already had to return some more expensive AKGs with ANC that he didn't like.

8 hrs with active noise cancelation on - 16 hrs with it off. ANC is nice but many headsets don't even have that, certainly not at this price. Also - AptX with BT 5.0 - not 4.0 as someone else above already pointed out.

I've had these headphones for over a year. They are awesome headphones. For the under $100 range, they're way better than all the other cheap o ones that Amazon sells. The noise cancelling may not be as good as the expensive Sonys but they are way better than earbuds on the airplane, which is where I use them most. There is a separate control for the noise cancelling on/off and the Bluetooth on/off, which I really like if you're using the headphone jack for airplane movies. Battery seems to last forever. I go on several trips before I need to charge. Sound quality - I'm super picky - is really good. I have no complaints about anything being too heavy or too light. I think the balance is pretty good. Anyway, just my two cents. I bought these for 50$ and I'm thinking I ought to get a backup at this price.

It says on the product page BT 5 but as other gentle man says the User manual clearly says BT 4. these are conflicting info on same page for the product. Maybe they upgraded their product in recent times but have old manual... Who knows

The image shows them with the 3.5 mm cable. But, the manual does not indicate the 3.5 cable is included. For those of you who have purchased this in the past, is the 3.5 cable included?

If you download the user manual that was uploaded on the page in 2016 it says Bluetooth 4.0. I think these have been upgraded since then though.

It did for me but I do not know if bulk packaging will change that.
