More Cons than Pros

I have tried the Philips Fresh Air Mask for a few days now and I have slightly mixed feelings about it.
My breathing comfort did improve tremendously with this mask, as advertised. When I first put it on, I am surprise to see how well the mask fits my face and it was actually quite comfortable. However, after only an hour into wearing it, I felt uncomfortable at the back of my ears and nose area as the mask has some weight to it. I feel that the mask is pulling against my ears and is also sliding down my nose and I was perspiring from walking under the hot sun. I tried to tighten, and also loosen, but it does not help with the comfort. After 2 hours, I could no longer tolerate the discomfort and had to change out to a normal mask.
There were also 3 speeds to the mask and personally, the slowest speed does not do anything for me. I could only feel a difference from a higher speed.
Overall, I am impressed with the technology and also appreciated the effort in designing the mask to be as comfortable as possible. I feel that if there is anything to improve on, it would be the weight of the ‘fan’. It might be better to have elastic bands that secure the head instead of the ear to help with the heaviness of the mask.
My 2 stars goes to only the breathing comfort and the quality of the mask.
