The failure mode

Not measured

Reliability is unknown: only 9 long-term owners have reported back, too few to compute a rate. Isolated single reports exist for channel balance, 2.4GHz wireless connection, Bluetooth connection, and on-head detection sensor — but no pattern can be confirmed at this sample size.

How sentiment ages

The honeymoon

Early ownership sentiment sits at 82%, already well above the category average of 47%.

A year of ownership

Long-term sentiment strengthens to 95%, meaning these genuinely grow on owners rather than just impressing out of the box.

Pricing

No live retailer offers tracked yet — figures are the street price and MSRP we have on record.
