Can anyone genuinely hear a difference with high resolution mode?

After latest firmware ANC does almost nothing... I wish I could go back to previous version...

You can do what I did. Return them.
I didn't care to get them again but guess if you buy them again they'll come with the original firmware.

I was too pissed off to try to do a reverse lookup and force an old firmware but might be possible too.

Did you buy in store? If you paid by card you should be able to get a receipt. Otherwise, try to talk to the store, explain you don't have a receipt and try to go by Sennheisers warranty. The ANC is inexistent, you should be able to just return them claiming they don't work. I had no problems at the store after they confirmed the ANC was not working in my pair nor the demo on pair they had.

I'm out of my return period, so basically screwed?

I was out of mine but claimed warranty: The product doesn't work. After explaining the situation and checking nor my unit or the demo unit worked, the owner processed muy return and said they'd check with Sennheiser to return all the units they had left

I got mine at B&H, I'll give them a shot, thanks.

Since ANC is software based, cant they improve it by updates?? Like the ANC is absolutely ass, they really badly need an update for it.

I second that ( but it is also hardware based)

new firmware confirms APTX HD codec is being processed. shown in the APP.

previously it was only showing AptX for AptX HD which was confusing. now i can see AptX HD being shown from transmission ANdroid device and being processed on Senn APP. this is excellent as many much much more expensive headphones (FOCAL BATHYS) have massively messed up by not including AptX HD with there APtX Adaptive license. what a shambles at £800.

now AptX by itself would never be offered to my King - King Charles. Atleast AptX HD for minimal Royalty approval.
