What customers say about "Size & Weight"
AKG N60NC Noise Cancelling Headphones
  • They are very compact and light. I wear them for 8 hours a day and never feel any neck strain.
  • The earcups feel like pillows for your ears and further adds to the comfort factor. Sound quality for music is also excellent.
  • They're very light, I honestly forget I'm wearing them sometimes.
  • A beautiful design, great build materials, light weight, fantastic portability and decent NC.
  • Headphones are a good weight, connected to my iPhone 8 with no problems etc.
AKG Y50BT Portable Foldable On-Ear Rechargeable Bluetooth Headphones - Blue
  • I’ve found them to be very comfortable even with my fat head (size 7 5/8)! The headband has just enough padding and the earphone pads are soft.
  • Build quality seems good, with solid construction. They’re excellent value for money and thoroughly recommended.
  • They looked great, fairly comfortable for out and about on-off type of use
  • Excellent build quality - now had them 2.5 years and I haven’t been careful with them, yet they still look and function as new.
  • Durability is very good. After a year of we have travelled a lot together. I used them in the house, in trains, in beaches, etc. After all that use there are no cracks or tearing

What customers say about "Features"
AKG N60NC Noise Cancelling Headphones
  • Bluetooth pairing is extremely straightforward and unusually well executed compared to many devices I have used.
  • The noise canceling is terrific, and a delight as I do much of my listening on long rides on the bus (I'm a long-distance commuter).
  • I can't speak to long-term durability, but these seem very well built, and the included soft pouch is very handy.
  • This a very good noise cancelling headset, with decent audio quality over Bluetooth (amazing when using audio jack) and great battery life.
  • These are nice headphones, but be warned, if you wear them in a dark room, the ridiculous blue power led will light the whole room and disturb everyone.
AKG Y50BT Portable Foldable On-Ear Rechargeable Bluetooth Headphones - Blue
  • Bluetooth connectivity is very good and I’ve used them up to 15 metres from my phone with no problem.
  • The sound quality is truly superb, they look amazing and for the most part are pretty comfortable.
  • So far I'm really impressed with these headphones - I'm not a huge audiophile but love the sound, the bass is deep and I don't feel I'm losing out on the higher notes either.
  • Pairing them is easy - I've linked them to several devices. I've noticed that on a couple of devices you get an icon in the top menu bar that shows the headphones are connected and the battery level.
  • Sound quality is great. They can't reach K701 levels obviously, however these are the best portable I have ever listen

What customers say about "Power"
AKG N60NC Noise Cancelling Headphones
  • Decent battery life. Easy BT connections. I don’t bother with the cable but it’s always an option.
  • Used on iPhone XS only so far, and will test with Android later this week. Battery life is great.
  • The battery life and sound quality is actually very good, cable included, great sound!
  • Sound, noises cancelling and batteries just what I wanted!! Excellent sound quality and cancellation.
  • At best it lasts me 8 hours with continuous music before it plays a repeated obnoxious chime, telling me to charge the headphones.
AKG Y50BT Portable Foldable On-Ear Rechargeable Bluetooth Headphones - Blue
  • Battery life looks good, they work for hours without the need of recharge.
  • Battery life I mean is excellent, reliability easy to work and turn on and off instantly.
  • I don't get ear ache after long term use like I do with other headphones. Great battery life, they last for ever.
  • The battery lasts over 24 hours on a single charge and gives a warning when it's running low.
  • The battery recharges quickly (I tend to leave it overnight), and I find that the charge lasts for around a week or so (8-9 days), after 2-3 hours' of daily use.
