Our Verdict
The king of battery life and style. 100 hours of wireless playback is absurd. No ANC, but the warm Marshall sound and iconic design make these a lifestyle product as much as audio gear.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do the Major V have noise cancellation?
No, only passive isolation from the on-ear pads. If ANC is important, look at Sony WH-1000XM6 or Sennheiser Momentum 5.
Is 100 hours of battery real?
Yes, tested at moderate volume. You could realistically charge these once a month with regular use.
Are they comfortable for long sessions?
The on-ear design can cause fatigue after 2-3 hours. Over-ear headphones are more comfortable for extended listening.
