HMMMMM okay so these headphones appear to sound worse when connected to a PC compared to my old ones, but better connected to an Android device, as far as I can work out this is because the old ones supported aptX but the new ones only support LDAC which is available on Android but not Windows πŸ₯²

I just got noise cancelling headphones for the first time, it's actually mad how well they work at blocking out all the noise that normally surrounds me in this flat. I feel like I should've got them 10 years ago

For months he's worked at clawing off the protective film on my new PC case. Today, he finally did it! I let him unroll it until he started trying to chew it, and then took the rest off. πŸ˜†
