Great hearing protection

Great ear protecting headphones. Pros: 1. Bluetooth range is pretty good 2. Battery life is by far the best thing about these. I use these 8.5 hours a day 5 days a week close to max volume (bc they’re quiet) for 2 weeks straight. Used these for several months like that. At the end of the second week I would charge these and then start the 2 weeks straight cycle over. They would only get down to 30% ish at the very end of the second week. 3. These do cancel out a lot of sounds. I use these in a shop environment so it mostly sits around 80 db but there are a lot of db spikes that measure up to 100+ for short times (compressed air). 4. Very comfortable. Comfortable enough to wear these for 8.5 hours a day 5 days a week. 5. Also work well at indoor gun ranges. Cons: 1. These have no bass what so ever. But they do protect your hearing. In my mind I’m ok with that trade off. 2. They don’t get loud. Even podcasts I had these at 100% volume trying to hear the hosts voice. 3. Don’t buy these for the built in microphone. Maybe it’s just bc I work in a shop but even when I was in quiet rooms no one could understand me the few times I took a phone call. TL;DR just read it

Amazing value and works better than more expensive brands!

This is a home run! I own the over ear and in ear IsoTunes, which were supposed to be the best. I spent a fortune. I felt the noise reduction was minimal and the Bluetooth volume stunk - I kept getting apple warnings and had to have the volume on full blast to even hear anything I was not expecting much for $60 but gave it a go. These things are amazing! I can keep volume at a normal level and still hear my music perfectly all while greatly blocking out the tractor and mower noise. They fit well on the head and even have cutouts in the band over the head so it doesn’t press the baseball hat button into your head like other brands - very well thought out. I have a large head and they fit well, not too tight. Usual cons of any over hear headphone in that you get a bit sweaty after prolonged use. Nothing really can be done about that. The soft padding is very comfortable. I had them on about 6+ hrs today and it was no issue. Highly recommend you give it a shot!

great headphones

I’ve tried a bunch of the cheap Bluetooth ear protection, and let me tell you, the 3M WorkTunes Connect are in a whole other league. The sound quality? Way better—like, actually clear with decent bass instead of the sound you get from budget models. Even in super loud spots, music and podcasts still sound full. Here’s the kicker though: the noise blocking is way better than budget products. Like, I’m running a chainsaw and barely hear it. No more blasting the volume just to hear my podcast over the lawnmower, which is awesome for not wrecking my ears. Bluetooth works solid, the buttons are glove-friendly, and they don’t make your head hurt after hours. Yeah, they cost more than the Walmart special, but trust me, it’s worth every penny. Would buy again.

You know it's good if you buy it thrice!

This pair of WorkTunes Connect hearing protection is my third pair. Not because they wore out, but because they are an essential piece of my power tool collection. Noise cancellation is supreme, battery life is unmatched, ability to bluetooth for incoming calls and alarms ensures that I stay in touch even while I'm totally engrossed with the tasks at hand. My newest model has some exciting modifications: wiring exiting the earpieces is reangled and stabilized to reduce breakage/shorting, and the buttons to answer calls and power the headset on/off have been repositioned and enlarged so you don't have to remove your work gloves! Looks like they thought of everything!
