Dated:
No multi point, so you're only connected to one device at a time. But it does remember a lot of pairings.
No transparency. You aren't able to pipe in outside noises like the newer high end headphones do (Solo Pros/1000 XM4 ect) Personally I don't like the function that much on non IEM headphones because it's super east to just slide them off.
BT 4.0. Not really a negavive because there haven't been too many improvements with 5.0 in the audio space other than maybe increased range. These have the 3 meter/33 foot range 90% of headphones have.
Ok so you've heard all the bad stuff technology wise which in my opinion isn't anything worth worrying about but it exists.
Good Stuff:
These things are really portable for normal non IEM headphones. They're half as think as my Solo Pros when folded and about 2/3 as wide as my Sony 1000 XM4s.
They have a really good sound signature out of the box. They don't have anything overly exaggerated, the bass is definitely represented, the highs aren't harsh and the mids are very clear. Unlike my closest headphones to these (Solo Pros) that sound more muddy with the highs but trade it for somewhat increased bass. The best way to describe it is it feels like you're listening the the Solos through a hoodie. But the N60's sound very clear considering the price.
Fit. They have a nice clamping force, not really too tight or loose for normal listening. I woildnt workout with them or do anything beyond cleaning the house.
ANC. It's alright, being on ears they are already at at disadvantage vs the 1000 XM4's but it's completely acceptable on such a portable headphone. Better than nothing but ANC has advanced a lot in the lats 4 years on top end headphones.
Battery is accurate. not much to say about that.
Overall these are a definite green light even in 2022. If you compare them to any other "New" headphone available in this price bracket these easily destroy them. Would I pay $300? Heck no there are a lot better options in 2022, but for $60-$80 I'd take these all day for their portability, ANC, and very acceptable out of the box sound signature and sound clarity. With the few negatives these have you probably won't find them in the $60 range anyways, or if you do it will be horrid quality.
Light weight,
comfy even after long hours of continuous use,
good ANC for on-ear headphone
no heat build up around the ears
Cons :
relatively short battery time
plastic materials that hold the connecting metal materials that connect the headband with the ear-cups don't look sturdy enough, look like they need to be handled with care,
Sound quality was not as great as I expected (from an AKG headphone),
a slight white noise always present when turned on.
I bought the AKGs b/c they are compatable with the older blue tooth (I have an Iphone 6). The AKG syncs perfectly with my phone, and to my linux mint ThinkPad. I wish the Iphone had one more click down, to make the AKGs slightly quieter on the lowest click (there isn't infinite adjustment on the iPhone, as is on the laptop). I don't think this issue would bother most people, but I wear these all day, so I switch to my laptop once I get to work so as to do minimal damage to my hearing. Walking on city streets, I'm above the minimum click on the Iphone, anyway.
Well, here are my rambling thoughts after about a month of using the AKGs. They exceeded my expectations.
I bought a supposedly very good version of Samsung wireless earbuds. I hated them! The connection was poor, their bean shape made it difficult to figure out how to wear them, and in the end, simply didn't sound great. I ordered these AKGs to replace them. I was a bit concerned since these are apparently an older model but I needn't worry. These sound fantastic! They offer a deep, base-rich sound every bit as good or better than the much more expensive Bose wireless headphones I've listened with. They're very comfortable to wear. Even more than my wooden over the ear corded headphones and sound at least as good. Less heat and sweating than my prior pair. I do not know about battery life, since I only started using these today but so far, I highly recommend them.

If you want a pair of good quality headphones with a high level of external noise suppression and excellent audio reproduction, then the AKG N60NC will provide everything you need. They are light and comfortable to wear for hours at a time, the sound quality is excellent (although I am no audiophile). I bought these after trialling the Bose QC45's and the sound quality of the AKG's is as good as Bose, the AKG profile is probably more natural sounding. The active noise cancelling is not as good as Bose, but for me that's no bad thing - I returned the Bose QC45's as the noise cancelling was so strong that is gave me headaches and nausea. If you are susceptible to the side effects of ANC then you will be fine with the AKG headphones. The overall effect on ANC is that the Bose totally block the external world so that you feel you are in an anechoic chamber, the AKG push the noise far to the back of your preception - it's still there but just as a faint background.
The AKG N60NC feel like they have been designed as headphones, first and foremost, and then had bluetooth capbility and ANC added. For me this is a good thing - they sound great whether wired without power or via bluetooth and the controls are physical buttons which cover the necessary functions only (vol up/down, pause/skip track). The headphones have a nice natural soundscape so there is little need to use an equaliser, but if I did I can use one on my phone, I don't need the over-engineering of an on-board equaliser. Similarly, voice activated switch off of playback, inertial recognition of their removal, capacitive sensing etc. are redundant 99% of the time when you just want to listen and enjoy the audio experience.
I bought these at ~ £120, near to £100 cheaper than the leading Bose and Sony alternatives. This is fantastic quality/£.
La batterie tient super longtemps
