Great headphone, upgraded from the 710. If you want just a headset to sync and go. If you are not Interested in any features just got with the ch710, as they are a great headphone amd will save you over 100 bucks. If you like features and want better noise cancelling, and better sound. Bite the bullet and grab the 910, I am throughly impressed. From a better build quality, they feel much tougher. To the cary case you get with it. They are a much better headphone for the extra value.
