Design, Sound, Features, Software everything is in sync and works well
The only real thing that I didn't like about these headphones is the power button location, I found myself occasionally pressing it when removing the headphones, not a deal breaker

Excellent sound quality over Bluetooth, Userfriendly customization of effects, Good call quality, Outstanding customer service, More comfortable than previous version
Lackluster sound quality in passive wired mode, Competitive products are more affordable, Difficult to wear for long periods without eventual discomfort, Saving user presets requires Internet access and creating an account, Impossible to create or modify

Middling battery life, App required to get full sound effect, Lofty price
The Zik 2.0 sound and look great for a pair of Bluetooth headphones, all while embracing some innovative features. But their $400 price tag will turn off a lot of consumers looking for an alternative to the world of Bose...
