Why I have not bought any Bose Headphones? Quite simply, I find them very ugly and cheap-looking ... About the Zik I came only quite by accident and was immediately impressed by the design and the operating concept. After I then promised even the sound, it was clear my decision. NC works beautifully for me, I love the settings of the app and also the weight of the headphones has never bothered me. The packaging as well as a lack of case does not fit absolutely to the price. Nevertheless, I forgive 5 stars!
