That part when you mentioned how these headphones performed when outdoors in a windy environment was all I needed to hear. Outdoor performance in windy environments is a major decision maker for me. Excellent review as usual.
One thing I notice is that despite being 250 headphones, these get compared to the 350 ones. If you line this up against the HD450 and the Sony XB900N, how do these fare? These sound compelling at the price point based on some reviews.
Never understood the issues with headband padding. Thick hair for the win. Also do you think the bass issues is something that could be fixed in a drivers update? I’m a big hip hop fan so that’s a bit of a dealbreaker.
The way you say "Original" sounds very original 😅, don't know why, but i concentrated on the original word more 😅. Whenever i want to see review of headphones, i look for gym caddy, straight points, no fuss. Like them, the reviews.
I actually used the 1st gen surface headphones for work in landscaping riding a mower. The noise cancellation would made the loud mower sound like a whisper.
Yeah it's worth upgrading and they don't sputter as much with their stock eq. But if you raise the bass on them they are going to start to sputter a lot
Hey, out of this vs xb900 vs 1000xm3 vs h910n vs nc 700 or any other, which one should i buy?? Should have good calling , good sound (clear but good bass) and comfortable.
Hey man, thanks for all your awesome reviews. I do have a request tho, could you please do a comparison between the Sennheiser HD 450bt and the Sony Xb900n headphones? Thank you!
Another great review. Very clear info. Truly disappointing these Microsft 2 headphones. Slight battery improvement, better buttons, now available in black with a little bigger ear cups. Hope the MS team that worked on this "upgrade" also had other projects to do this last year. Otherwise they did a lot of loafing.
I really like ur videos.. U give honest and detailed review to help me make my purchase decision... I also hope to own my own channel soonest... Respect bro!
I currently rock the AirPod pros for my earbuds and the Sony mdr xb950bt. I want to upgrade my headphones for noise cancellation. The dials and price of the surface headphones is what makes me want to get them but I do love the Sony wh1000x. I know the Sony’s are better but damn these are a lot cheaper. Think I’m going to wait and see what the next Sony and apple headphones will be like
Why do we need headphones with a battery that lasts more than a day of constant use when we generally sleep for 1/3 of each day? Seems like the ideal time to charge them.
@@GYMCADDY because phones and laptops die before I can finish my day. Headphones that last longer than I will be awake on any given day aren't a concern. Get me 20 hours of high energy use on a phone or laptop and I'm happy. There's an entire 30% of my day that I won't be using my devices. That's when they get charged.
I agree. I charge my daily driver headphones every night and my over ear ones after each day of use. I don’t see the point in batteries that can last multiple days. I would hate to pick up a pair and find them dead.
Headphones should last a week. I don't want another thing to charge daily. It's not a difficult achievement - they're only playing low level sound (it's not a huge speaker), have no pixels just the odd low power LED. It isn't that difficult to achieve.
My ears are freakishly large, so the larger earcups look great to me. My ears even touch the insides of my Sennheiser Momentum 3's, and the cups on them are huge. These look great for office work.
This review has been very unfair to the headphones and biased/subjective. Bose 700s get really uncomfortable much faster than the surface ones. The eq, specifically bass isn't actually that bad
@@Agueta Well to be fair, I can't tell you 100 percent that it will connect to Macs the same way as it does to Windows laptops. But there's no reason that it shouldn't. You won't be able to control the EQ through your Mac though.
Please make shorter videos, they are getting longer and longer. For audio products with limited set of features, videos shouldn't be that long. Love your content though
Nah. Long video is not the issue, there is also people like watching longer videos too(like me). So imo longer videos should have time stamps. Everyone wins!
Bro I like this dude. His reviews are the most honest without beating around the bush. If they’re trash he’ll let you know 😂
I'm glad you appreciate my honesty

Just got the Surface headphones 1 for $99. Seems like a good deal to me. Thanks for the awesome review!

I'll be comparing them to some $250 options as well

What color would you recommend in terms of keeping it clean from fingerprints and grease?
Do you think they’re suitable for the gym?
Do you recommend this over Sony's 1000 xm4? Sorry if my English is not good enough.
Hi, which headphones do u think are the best to buy ?
How's the overall sound quality of SH2 compared to Bose QC35 II? And how's the bass specifically compared with these two?
I love mine. But a clicking Sound by changing the Volume or ANC would be good. Have no problems to wear them for hours.
If you still have both Surface Headphones (Original and 2), can you check if the ear pads are interchangeable?
Infinity times' he had said "BUT" in this Video
But
I got my original SH at a price of $190 last prime day which was a great deal
Will love to support you through either Patreon or the RUclips Join Member feature.
Does the bass sputter more than the Skullcandy Venues, and do you think it's worth upgrading from the Venues to the Surface 2 ?
Yeah it's worth upgrading and they don't sputter as much with their stock eq. But if you raise the bass on them they are going to start to sputter a lot
So should I get the original or the 2nd version or should I get WH-1000 XM3s??? Pls Answer
11:20 Noise Canceling Test
I can get the OG Surface Headphones for 180$. Thery are worth it or should I spend 250 for the new model?
Nah get the original
@@GYMCADDY thx man! Nice video btw
225 on the Microsoft store!! For students/parents/military
Please do a comparison between these and the Sony XB900N. Maybe add some other competitors in there. Looking to get one of these two
Hey, out of this vs xb900 vs 1000xm3 vs h910n vs nc 700 or any other, which one should i buy?? Should have good calling , good sound (clear but good bass) and comfortable.
Hey man, thanks for all your awesome reviews. I do have a request tho, could you please do a comparison between the Sennheiser HD 450bt and the Sony Xb900n headphones? Thank you!
I got these for £206!! Amazon was doing an offer for those that have student prime and had to buy them.
Thanks for this interesting video! You have an awesome channel!!! I shall subscribe, I wonder how these compare to my Sony Wh-xb900n ?
I love your videos, dude. You're my favorite headphone review channel.
thanks, im just trying to my best

They downgraded the price by $100. That’s something right?
lol what are those headphones on the table shot above the pixel buds and airpods? looks interesting
Does the bass pop at max volume like the 1st generation did if I don't EQ them at all?
I really like ur videos.. U give honest and detailed review to help me make my purchase decision... I also hope to own my own channel soonest... Respect bro!

You should have compared the ANC with the XM3's even though they have a price difference.
Why do we need headphones with a battery that lasts more than a day of constant use when we generally sleep for 1/3 of each day? Seems like the ideal time to charge them.
why do you need phones and laptops with constantly improving battery life?

Will you be wrevuewing the new Razer Opus?
yeah but probably when im done with these other products ive got here.
How do the sound of the surface 2's compare to the sony xb900n?
Hi can i connect surface headphones 2 with macbook pro??????
please answer i need to know if i can buy them or not.
Yeh u can
So these have overpowering bass? If that is the case, I'll get them
its not overpowering, they start to sputter like those after market sub woofers you be seeing in the back of 2002 Honda Accords.
GYMCADDY 😂😂😂
What are "High End" ANC headphones?
MegaCallum10 $350+ range in price
My ears are freakishly large, so the larger earcups look great to me. My ears even touch the insides of my Sennheiser Momentum 3's, and the cups on them are huge. These look great for office work.
Big ears to myself lol

Love your vids!
Once these get discounted below 200, they’ll be a pretty sweet deal.
$225 at the actual Microsoft store for students/parents/military
Surface headphones 2 vs XB900N?
I'm planning on it but I'm waiting for the JBL club 950 NC
How does it compare with xb900n?
I have that exact shirt! Oh and good review.
and can i connect surface headphones 2 to macbook pro 2019 and samsung galaxy note 10+ together at the same time??
You should be able to.
@@alexlyster3459 Thanks, because I didn't saw any youtuber talking about it. And in Microsoft web they not talking about connecting to macbook either.
@@Agueta Well to be fair, I can't tell you 100 percent that it will connect to Macs the same way as it does to Windows laptops. But there's no reason that it shouldn't. You won't be able to control the EQ through your Mac though.
None of these companies should be getting rid of the headphone Jack cause legit travelers that comes in handy for us
how do these compare tot he Jabra Elite 85h?
Good job mate
You read the newest WH-1000XM4 leaks?
