Can confirm, I've owned them for 10 months now. High quality, good sound even with dolby atmos they hold their battery for 2 days of heavy use easy. Very comfortable but not on hot summer days. Only flaw is the microphone quality ***edit ... bought them for 89 euro (100 dollar) last year at Xmas . Def would buy again !!

[@jokubasgusakovas8037]

I own these and i can tell you youre wrong because they are not comfortable at all. I cant use the for more than an hour because my ears start hurting.

[@Dom_Uchihaa]

I got these and they are pretty underrated the sound is pretty good and the battery life on these is insane

[@uno23sleep]

Thank you for adding the detail about the audio cue of a guitar riff during power-up. (y)

[@ghostmarine96]

I think that might be something that is exclusive to the Major III voice. I have the standard Major III BT and it doesn’t have that added function.

[@rdeh1678]

Marshall headphones are very very good and stand out , what is even better is they really stand behind what they sell my son had a issue with his and wow they really helped my son , he luvs his Marshall headphones and products

[@vicentcasana3312]

Good video and pretty informative. Thanks!

[@appearoffline]

Suggested features for a Monitor 3 release: High comfort; high water resistance; AptX Monitor 1 already has this; ANC, Google Voice assistant; more intuitive joystick controls - **it's too easy to activate the wrong command, for example, skipping a song when trying to adjust the volume; sound leakage is a bit more noticeable than I'd like it to be; voice commands never works when outside due to background noise.**

[@plushfloody]

Please review the Marshal "Monitor" bluetooth cans!

[@oguzalpsamli6823]

hey, I wonder if I should buy these or Sony Whxb900N. Does anyone have an idea? +are these leather and comfortable?

[@mayanktandon1376]

Sir, there's bluetooth issue on my laptop, will it effect the battery if I only use these headphone using the 3.5mm jack cable?

@Secret Agent Steve it’s possible you have acquired a knockoff. Marshalls are often copied, and unless you buy them from either themselves or a chain store, you have likely bought a copy.

[@josetoro4405]

that’s first thing that called my attention also

[@Joachim22188]

May I know is slight noise floor when listening with it common?

[@jocika900]

Hello friend, I am sorry for disturbing you and don't know are you like to answer to questions. I have only one - what a quality of clarity on phone conversation, is it strong and clear for both side ? Thanks a lot and best regards 😆😎😀

[@jun11101]

can i use to connect on my amp?

[@jaganize]

Planning to get these next week. Confused between these and the Skullcandy Crushers Wireless. These look sleek and compact compared to the Crushers but I am worried it may feel too tight for prolonged use though I don't ever listen to more than a couple of hours at a stretch. I have tested the Crushers and it has tremendous bass but I listen to everything from Country to Death Metal. Suggestions are welcome. Thanks

[@madking7496]

What have you bought? Im wondering between these two as well. Im more of a metal-rock person

[@jaganize]

@@madking7496 Marshall. Suits me more over a wide array of music that I listen to. Crushers' bass kicks too much in comparision. I felt that's more suitable for EDM. Rest all genres, Marshall does the job pretty well. Also, it's sleek, looks cool and I actually got a pretty good deal here in India. For Metal, these are definitely a better choice as the mids feel deeper in comparision and the bass does not overwhelm the double bass drumming and riffs. For comfort though I'd still go with Crushers but these are not far behind. Hope it helps man!

[@madking7496]

@@jaganize Thank you so much for a very detailed opinion! Now im really stuck because Crushers look more comfortable and look better overall and i heard opinions it not bad for metal either. I've never had a good pair of headphones so maybe it will not make a big difference for me hahaha

[@Noirwulfenhart]

Some people actually feel the headset squish on their ears and it hurts even for just a few hours. The reason being is that the headset locks on your head so you can use it on the go.

[@quienhasio]

I had to change them because after a few hours of use your ears hurt. Not recommended for long time use.

[@DarkKittycat]

Is it any good

[@varunsambaragimath3292]

@@akmalidrees3278 oh it’s great, amazing quality and overall feels premium, definitely worth it ! Having said that tho, it does tend to get a bit hot around your ear since it’s made of leather…but a pair of great headphones !

[@montassarlabidi8098]

Great video ...I have a question what’s the difference between Marshall major 3. And Marshall major 3 Bluetooth

[@vincentxiong16]

Best buy has them for 79.99 for Fathers day sale as of today. get yourself one!

[@vincentxiong16]

@Secret Agent Steve nope, I purchased one too. it's wireless, as a matter of fact, I'm using them right now. probably caught on too late for the deal that they went back up.

[@vincentxiong16]

@Secret Agent Steve haha yeah man. like I said, it was a Fathers day sale.

[@vincentxiong16]

@Secret Agent Steve it's three inclining beats.

[@vincentxiong16]

@Secret Agent Steve I don't think so man, mines clearly not a guitar sound when turned on and off.

[@vincentxiong16]

@Secret Agent Steve also, there could be minor tweaks when it comes to production. remember, they're always manufacturing headphones as long as it sells.

[@RR46]

Hello I bought a pair of major iii bluetooth but wen I turn on the headphones a listen to beeps instead of guitar sounds, I bought them original there are different versions? Or may I bought a fake ones?

[@faheemnp]

He is reviewing Voice model version which has it.

[@mariuszciereszko9397]

60 or 30 hrs?

U can't recharge this ??

[@FallenJustice]

I bought the Major 3 on sale and was very pleased with the audio quality and the build quality. Felt like premium headphones. Then a week later, the Major 4 went on sale for the same price. Seeing that they are '4/IV', I thought it was naturally the successor. So I exchanged the 3s for the 4. I was a bit disappointed when opening and using the major 4s. The build quality and materials used is definitely lessor than the 3. It doesnt feel premium. It feels cheaper. Lots of plastic. The leather has been removed where the Marshall logo is. The headband itself feels thinner, cheaper, and more flexible. Overall, the build itself is inferior to the 3. However, the audio is a step up. I listened to the same songs as I did on the 3 and noticed improvements with the base and overall quality. My Major 3 didn't have the guitar riff during power up/down. However the 4 does and I like it. I definitely prefer the USB-C port on the 4. The more than double battery life and wireless charging is a nice plus as well. But I really do like the build and feel of the 3s. Tough choice, but I think I will stick with the 4 because its more modern, and I hate micro-usb.

[@yousefmaher8206]

I think they made the major 4 a bit lighter and less tight on the ears because I have the major 3 and personally it's comfortable at first but after a few hours it starts to hurt my ears because of the pressure, maybe that's why I'm not sure I haven't tried the major 4

[@blubblab4238]

waterproof

[@brandenbrooks5525]

Can you run with them

[@bdeshpande3250]

With heavy battery, it is bit uncomfortable to run with this headphone. However you may use them once in a while, but surely you are going to feel that heavy load on your head

[@francescoatria1086]

Did you know what Bluetooth version they came with?

[@karlos777x]

I'm also trying to find out, if it's bt 5.0 i will try to get this for Xmas.

[@gvancakirvalidze2477]

It indeed has Bluetooth 5.0

[@vatsaakhil]

Not sure why it's bass isn't upto mark for me

[@JustinThorLPs]

I literally wear my pair for 10 to 12 hours every day I have no problem with them becoming uncomfortable

[@emirhancalskan1581]

Thanks for the video. Just wanted to ask how many minutes is an hour to you? Just checked and it looks like it isn't 60 hrs but rather 30 hrs.

[@emirdinc5825]

Should I still buy major 3 or buying major 4

[@spider_dude]

Depends on what you like in the sound department. The sound in the major III is clean and the sound in major IV has more bass

[@lucasmancini2]

I bought them and i regret it a little bit.. they are not terrible but at theyr price point they are definitely not in the top 10s. The mids are very poor. They sound good with metal, rock etc, but don’t listen to anything else or the poor mids will annoy you alot. Good but not great. Only buy if you purely listen to metal, rock etc.

[@stuntsaki]

Hello!! Wondering how the calls are on these headphones versus JBL Live 400? 🤔

[@ezydy]

I have these headphones, for calls they're great when it comes to voice being received on the other end. It says 60 hours battery life.....feels like more than that LOL

[@alexsanjiv155]

Is there a difference to the normal major 3 besides google assistant? Because the major 3 voice are cheaper which is weird hahaha

[@DarkKittycat]

i just read that the normal one doesnt have the guitar opening sound, but i dont know if its a guitar or not, it could be anyway i have the one without voice because using google assistant is a bit awkward to me unless im in my car or something so i wasnt willing to pay extra for that

[@memoli801]

So yours has no bluetooth and "voice" does?

[@ilikevictorianera]

Got them today and I’m very disappointed. They hurts instantly and volume is too quiet for my taste. I really love design, like to the core, but I think I will end up with beoplay H8 or older model.

[@rilindlindij7161]

Do they have anc or pnc? And do they leak noise? Thank you

[@kartikfl4107]

Are they good for gym workout sessions? Please suggest.

[@jivewig]

No don’t. These headphones are meant for listening to music while you’re working or just vibing. These are not designed to sustain a lot of sweat and water, the artificial leather and the earcups can get ruined. Get a pair of cheap wireless earphones for workouts.

[@Nerino]

They are really good, but I was wearing them for 20 hours and my ears are going to drop soon, it's for 5 hours listening in my opinion. But I hope I'll get used to it

[@casszhang554]

Look, no on ear headphone is build for 5+ hours listening. These are pretty comfortable, for on ear headphone.

[@Nerino]

@@casszhang554 Well I have them 20h+ per day soo, my ears are about to drop

[@DarkKittycat]

they usually get looser with time, i remember my old headphones being like that in the beginning and now they fall off my head when i bow, so i hope the same will happen with these

[@Nerino]

@@DarkKittycat So after a year, my ears stil hurt while wearing it for a long time, so if you wanna buy these, remember not to wear them all day but everything works fine, sound is great.
