"B&O are noticeably heavier, noticeably less comfortable to wear for long durations."

While the materials feel premium, multiple users report the H95s are heavy and uncomfortable for extended wear, with specific issues for those with earrings, leading some to return them.

"You shouldn’t expect much of the ANC, but otherwise the sound quality, build quality, battery life and connectivity are awesome."

Battery life is not a frequently discussed point, and no significant complaints or praises were noted, suggesting it is neither a standout feature nor a major drawback.

"Lamb skin on the ears feels so premium, the overall look of the H95 speaks for the price..."

The build quality is almost universally praised, with users highlighting the premium materials like lambskin and the overall luxurious feel and aesthetic, contributing significantly to the product's perceived value.

One user explicitly states that the mic quality on the H95 is a 'huge dealbreaker' when not used wired, indicating poor performance in this area compared to newer models.

"B&O win here, the quick ‘upswitch’ toggle on the headphones makes it fast to connect new devices."

The physical dials for volume and ANC are appreciated, and multi-device connectivity is noted as a strong point, though some find the app's EQ basic and wired connection still uses internal electronics.

"The audio performance is nothing short of brilliant, with a wide soundstage, lots of detail, and a warm, bassy sound that lends itself to pretty much any music genre you can think of."

Users overwhelmingly praise the H95's sound quality, describing it as brilliant, expansive, detailed, and well-balanced, with custom drivers and a customizable EQ contributing to a superior listening experience.

Call quality is described as competent and fine for calls, but the microphone performance is noted as a bit weak, sometimes sounding scratchy, tinny, or distant.

"It’s a shame there’s no auto-pause function when you remove the headphones, but that’s hardly a dealbreaker - and the headphones can be set up to turn off after 15 minutes of inactivity."

Connectivity is stable with Bluetooth 5.1 and aptX Adaptive support, and the app offers useful customization, but the lack of auto-pause and multipoint connectivity are noted drawbacks.
