The cushions look like they have pretty sharp edges. In general, I'm really sensitive to that sort of thing and have to use very specific over-ear headphones; ones that actually go over the ear and don't squeeze around or against it. (I am not sure if yours do)
I'm pretty astonished by the price, my current headphones are studio monitors that costed $50, and according to your website, the retail price of your system will be 16 times that. It's difficult to imagine justifying that, even if you also get earbuds.
Quick disclaimer: we're still figuring things out, so it really helps if we can get more of these pieces of critical feedback!
I hear you regarding the earpads. In the prototypes that we have built recently, the earpads are way rounder than this, so we will fix the renders to reflect this shortly. The headphones are really comfortable overall, we spent and will continue to spend a lot of time working on clamping force and materials, so the earbuds and the headphones will be super comfortable once we're ready to ship.
Now, the price. The current configuration that we're offering now is for the people who are looking for a high-end wireless 3-in-1. If you were to mix and match something similar from the market right now, it will cost you around $800 or more. You can double check that by looking at the features and tech specs section and compare to alternatives on the market (we may add an example on the website soon). Add to that the inability to upgrade or repair most products out there affordably, the price becomes very justifiable. In fact, we're saving this target audience hundreds of dollars in the long term.
There will be other configurations starting $150 next year, this is just the start. We have to go high-end first to be profitable and build the business.
So "$800 value" doesn't mean that you're going to sell the final product for $800, but just that assembling the same sort of system today would cost that much?
No, £800 ($1000) is the retail price. An equivalent set of earbuds, headphones, and mini smart speakers with the same specs and quality would cost roughly the same.
