Engadget Review
Dolby’s Dimension headphones are an enticing blend of outstanding audio and useful features, but the price is too high for many to consider adding these to their collection of binge-watching gear.
At $599, these headphones are too expensive for most, no matter how good they are.

But for now, I’m saving my $600.Digital Trends70Dolby Dimension wireless headphones reviewDolby’s Dimension offer great sound, magical features, and unparalleled comfort.USA Today80Brings home theater sound directly to your earsI like Dolby Dimension very much and found I wanted to use them more than I initially suspected I would. I was able to watch what I wanted to watch without disturbing my kids when they were doing their homework or my wife when she was catching up on work. But when they needed to get my attention they could, without having to yell or tap me.But face it, we’re talking about a luxury purchase here. At $599, Dolby’s first consumer product is decidedly not for the masses.

I wore these on a flight from the West coast to East coast (no connection to the entertainment system, but cuts down on ambient noise) and I got a pain on the top of my head after about 2 1/2 hours...same happened on the return trip. As an engineer, I looked at the design, and the top band flattens out, putting a focal point of weight on the crown of your head...typical design error for newbies to a mature industry. I see it all the time in my consulting.The Dolby Dimension App is crap...could not get it to connect, although BT was connected to it - rebooted phone, rebooted headphones, turned on/off BT and nothing worked...So I've renamed my Dolby Headphones on my BT connection as "Stupid" to remind myself of my stupidity in hauling a boat anchor across the US and back. For a mere $600 experience...Pure rubbish...I'm going back to $150 Sony's...manav100May 21, 2019Feedback submitted!Unable to submit feedback!A gadget unicorn - Engadget
