Reviews
These AKG headphones come with ANC(Active Noise Cancellation) which ensures you noise-free traveling, calls, or video calls.
ANC does its job very well but doesn’t take care of really loud and abrupt noises like engine and air-conditioner noise. The Comfort level is amazing due to its light-weighted on-ear design. If we talk about battery life it lasts up to 15hours with ANC turned ON otherwise it lasts up to 30 hours.
It provides you excellent sound quality with deep bass. The sound quality varies as it depends on the type of device you are using and the mode in which you are using( wireless with ANC, wired with ANC, wired).
If music is more important for you, then these are the perfect choice for you. It’s tough to find fault in AKG N60NC wireless headphones. Let us suppose if you’re using wired mode you will get high-quality sound and if you’re using the wireless mode, it slightly decreases the sound quality.
The only problem is they get dirty very quickly. Overall these headphones are outstanding and worth their price.
