I had these and returned them. I thought the ANC was negligible and the sound was mediocre.
Got these a while ago. Very sturdy and they fold. Though no case is included and given how solid they are I d be comfortable tossing these in a bag without giving it much thought. They can handle some abuse. They also sound pretty great for the price imho but the ANC is a bit underwhelming.

Good thing however is that these block out a surprisingly large amount of noise already without ANC on. I can't hear what my wife is saying to me when I'm watching TV with them on, so that's pretty good. Just nod and smile.
Do you expect people to have a chart comparing the Monoprice SonicSolace Headphones with the Bose QC35 ready to go? Or, are you requesting that someone create a chart for you to reply to your post? Find comparable charts released by Monoprice and Bose, respectively, and post them to the thread? Conduct a controlled research study with the two sets of headphones, and summarize the findings in a chart?

I'm joking but ... I don't know how anyone is going to provide you with a chart or charts that compare these two items.

I've avoided Bluetooth headphones for as long as possible, but after mowing my lawn last week w/the lightning to headphone jack adapter in my iPhone constantly crackling, I ordered these. My wife will certainly roll her eyes since I already have 5 IEMs, Sennheiser HD558s, Monoprice M650s, Sennheiser Momentum on-ears... and I don't even listen to headphones/IEMs all that often. I may have a problem.
These will probably be used more than all the others, especially since the damn crackling adapter.

Reason for quoting: I'm glad to hear that they block out a lot of noise.

8 hour ANC time according to the specs? That's pretty awful in my opinion.

How does this compare to similarly priced ANC, Bluetooth headphones on Amazon? Like Taotronic, urlhasbeenblocked, Cowin?

Don't expect anything like Bose NC for 8% the cost of Bose.

Seems about $24 worth of hours of ANC

8 hour operating time. 3 hours to charge. Think I'd go with the taotronics 85 for 36 bucks over this.

I have the sonicsolace and bought the taotronics for my wife on a previous FP deal. IMO, the sonicsolace blow these out of the water. I was not a fan of the taotronics...felt cheap, sounded cheap.

No, Micro USB. It's in the digital manual. Should be on the product page.
