    Great headphones by Sony! I had the lower model before this and debated spending more money for the upgrade and really glad I did. Comes with a nice case for storage and they're extremely durable! I workout about 5 days/week and they are used every time I'm in the gym. Excellent noise cancelation quality and so easy to adjust your equalizer as well from the app. I love these and would absolutely recommend them!

    These certainly are not the best sounding headphones on the market, but they probably are the best sounding headphones with active noise canceling. Now, don’t expect them to completely block out all noises, that’s not what ANC is even supposed to do. However, these are excellent at canceling out background noises, like low rumbles and stuff like that. If you’re listening to music or a video or something, then that noise plus the ANC will probably block out those other sounds anyway. I used these while I was gaming and I was never once disturbed. The only downside is that they’re a little bulky for my taste, but that’s just an issue with all over the ear headphones.
