What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

Check the TV’s available audio output before buying. Optical setup requires the TV to be set to Optical output and PCM audio. The listing also says simultaneous soundbar use is unsupported, and that TV speaker and headphone playback together depends on TV settings. Direct Bluetooth use requires a TV with Bluetooth audio output. The details list Bluetooth version 5, while the more detailed specification lists Bluetooth 5.2. The listing also variously describes the headset as touch-controlled and button-controlled, so the control method is unclear. Customer feedback reports mixed connectivity and charging experiences and concerns about headband durability, including reports of breakage after four months.

Connectivity and battery experience are mixed, and some customers report charging problems. Durability is also a concern, with reports of the headband breaking after several months.
