The MSRP for the Major II Bluetooth headphones is $150, which is already a pretty good price. But the black model is selling on Amazon now for $85, which is an absolute steal. The prettier brown and white models are going for around $120, which is still a great price for these headphones.
The Major II are a great pair of headphones for someone who wants good quality sound, value, comfort, stunning classic looks, and great battery life, which is an incredibly tough combination to find in Bluetooth headphones.
I can't quite validate Marshall's 30-hour battery life claim, but I can say that it's excellent. I rarely had to charge these headphones.
I would have liked better warnings that the headphones are running low on power; you only get about 15 minutes of warning beeps before they totally run out of juice, which isn't useful when I've just walked out the office door on my hour-and-a-half commute.
I've also found that it's easy to switch connections with other devices by simply double-tapping the Bluetooth pairing button and connecting them to your devices. There's no need for re-pairing once you've paired with your devices.
Most companies would throw in any old generic, cheap-feeling charging cable into the packaging, but Marshall went above and beyond with the Major II Bluetooth accessories.
Those connections are actually beautiful, which you wouldn't find me saying with most other headphone cables. The cable itself is also coiled, like a classic headphone cable. Unlike a classic headphone cable, though, the Major II Bluetooth's cable comes with a built-in microphone. You can also take calls when using the headphones wirelessly with the built-in microphone on the right cup.
Thankfully, you don't need to have the headphones powered on to listen to music with the cable.
The pads on the ear cups are supremely comfortable, and they look and feel as they did when I first took the Major II Bluetooth headphones out of the box almost a year ago.
Inside the ear cups covering the speaker itself is Marshall's signature stitching that you'll find on the front its guitar amps, which is a classy touch that only you would notice unless you went around showing it to everyone around you.
The plastic surrounding the ear cups' exterior feels solid, too.
The Marshall Major II Bluetooth headphones don't look or feel cheap, and tip the scale towards the premium side.
That's because Marshall has added a level of detail that I've rarely seen on a pair of headphones. The faux-leather inlay on the side of the headphone cups, for example, is soft rubber instead of the hard plastic that I have come to expect in less expensive headphones.
