and offers an excellent overall sound quality with the convenience of both wired and wireless connectivity. They're on-ear headphones which may be less comfortable over long periods compared to the over-ear MW75-Neuro, but they are lighter and more portable due to their foldability and longer battery life. The Major IV is not the best for environments requiring noise isolation; they do not support active noise cancelling which MW75-Neuro does, making the MW75-Neuro a superior choice for noisy environments like air travel. MW75-Neuro also supports high-quality audio codecs like AptX Adaptive, has better microphone quality for calls and meetings, and includes advanced features like a smartphone app with equalizer. If you're a gamer or watch a lot of TV and video, the low latency of MW75-Neuro would enhance your experience. However, if cost is a major factor and you need something primarily for music listening and portability, the Major IV could be a better choice. Give Feedback

"The Marshall Major IV shares quite a bit in common with its predecessor, but a key upgrade appears to be softer ear cushions. They make upgrading worth it. As a set of basic wired or wireless headphones the Major IV ticks most boxes by remaining easy to use, and fairly comfortable (at least, as on-ear headphones go)."
