The headphones themselves, absolutely gorgeous. Very luxurious feel, soft leather ears, they fit around your ears
Adjusting the head band is easy and is marked so you know where to set it to each time you get them out
The noise cancellation is very impressive, it works very well. I find the headphones very comforatble to wear, even for hours.
They look good and the cups aren't too fat

What customers say about "Features"

Parrot Zik 2 by Philippe Starck Wireless Headphones - Black

The touch functions are great, swipe back for rewind track, swipe forward for next track, up/down for volume and tap to pause.
The noise cancellation is great, and through the app on my phone, I can increase/decrease the outside noise, so lots of lovely fine tuning there.
The app is really good and the ability to adjust the sound via an equaliser as well having the sound played as if in "quiet room", "living room", "jazz club" or "concert hall" gives an extra dimension.
They automatically pause calls, films, music etc when you remove the headphones
The noise reduction easily out performs the huge noise generated when travelling on the London Underground.

Parrot Zik 3

These headphones were exactly what I wanted in terms of sound quality, noise cancelling and wireless comms.
I use them while travelling on aircraft and they cut out a significant amount of engine noise.
I am by no means fanatical about audio but can confirm they really sound excellent.
The noise cancelling is very good. They almost completely eliminate train hum.
The sound quality and noise cancelling are amazing. Hands down the best headphones I've ever head.

What customers say about "Power"

Parrot Zik 2 by Philippe Starck Wireless Headphones - Black

Battery life is a tested 6 hours which so far has proved to be perfectly adequate for my needs, if you need longer i would suggest buying a usb batterypack
Good fitting device great sound and reasonable battery life.
Large battery lasts surprisingly long also its removable so u can buy a new one.
They have great battery and really good sound (for the price), especially given that they are wireless.
The battery length is fine for me and if I'm sitting at the office at the computer I'll use the cable.
The only major downside of these headphones I could find was the battery, which is pretty much slammed in every review.

Parrot Zik 3

Typical battery life is around 6 hours. I purchased a second genuine battery to get me though the day when travelling.
I have just got the zik headphones so can't comment much about the battery life but 6 - 7 hours of battery time is good enough for me.
If you really need more than you can always get a spare battery since it’s removable, or use them in airplane mode.
Unfortunately where this headphone fails is on battery life which is huge for me, as you can expect 4-5 hours if you're lucky, just not good enough
