Let me start by saying, these headphones are a vibe. The Marshall Major V isn't just another pair of wireless headphones - it's a statement piece that delivers where it counts.
The sound quality is where these really shine. That Marshall signature sound? Absolutely real. The bass hits hard without muddying the mids, and the highs are crisp enough to make you appreciate details in your music you might have missed before. I tested them with everything from classic rock to jazz, and they handled each genre beautifully.
Battery life is insane - we're talking weeks of regular use on a single charge. I've been using them daily for work calls and music, and after two weeks they're still going strong at 60%. The wireless charging is a nice bonus when you do eventually need to power up.
Comfort surprised me for on-ear headphones. The soft ear pads make long listening sessions easy, though if you wear glasses like me, you might need occasional adjustments. They're lightweight but don't feel cheap - that rugged Marshall build quality is definitely there.
The app could be better though. While the EQ customization is great, it's annoying that some features are app-dependent rather than built into the headphones themselves. And yes, the power button placement could be better - I've accidentally turned them off a few times leaning back against pillows.
Are they perfect? No. The lack of ANC might bother some, and the sound leakage means these aren't ideal for super quiet environments. But for the price? You're getting incredible battery life, solid build quality, and that unmistakable Marshall sound in a package that looks as good as it performs.
