I have never experienced that level of battery performance from any other headphones so color me impressed. I wore them for two days straight with out needing to charge until the end of day two. The third feature that is amazing: battery life. If you are looking for noise canceling performance, these have it in spades (I make no comparison to other brands because I have not tried many over $300 headphones). With my child screaming in the other room. My body instantly relaxed like it was at a f***ing spa! In the middle of my tiny apartment. But, as the book says, “the body keeps the score,” right? Oh my word. It was like a freakin dove descended from heaven to relieve my senses of the constant oppression they experience on a daily basis, that I have learned to ignore after 33 years of dealing with it (I am 33 years old). I was sitting in bed with my weighted blanket (guys, I’m going through some repressed memories so the stress is at an all-time high right now) and I put these one to drown out the sound of my (also autistic) son and whatever other noises were happening in our small apartment. I sobbed the first time I turned on the noise canceling. Okay, that brings me to design feature number two: the noise canceling. These headphones are honestly THE MOST COMFORTABLE (i use all caps because I cried the first time I put them on, it was that amazing) headphones I have ever had the pleasure of wearing they fit like a f***ing glove! I use caps and profanity because I’m emotional about how amazing these headphones are.
This is a key feature of the design that applies specifically to autism. Why are these different? If you will notice, the over-ear piece of the equipment is not 100% attached to the over-the-head band they are flexible. It’s an incredibly uncomfortable feeling and I inevitably end up hating all other over-ear headphones that I have tried before this pair. First of all, the problem with most (all others that I have tried) over-ear headphones-for a person on the spectrum, or someone with sensory issues-is that they tend to fit like a vice grip on my head. If you also have autism, these headphones are definitely worth trying out. If you are reading this, you are probably doing it because of the title.
