Headphone review
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great audio and excellent bass performance and long lasting battery so I can listen to my music all day long. It’s a comfortable fit and no irritation want so ever. The noise cancelation does not cease to amaze me it’s as if I’m in my own world, just me and my music. Over all these headphones have elevated my music experience and was an excellent purchase.

A bit expensive, but worth it
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had my eye on these for a while. I had been holding out because they are a bit expensive. So far, definitely worth it. Noise-canceling is great, very comfortable, they feel nice and sturdy and come with a g hardshell case, battery life is solid, and the touchpad controls are a very unique feature. You can connect to multiple devices at the same time. I also really like that you can customize the sound using the mobile app. Don't know of any other headphones that do that. I will say, if there is no music playing, and the noise-canceling feature is on it feels like there is pressure in your ears. But that's not a big issue.

Best Headphones Hands down!
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I researched a lot of headphones like beat solo 3, studio beats 3,and Bose QC45, and I found that these models of Sony's beat all of them. You can do the research yourself and you'll come up with the same result that these brand of Sony's are far superior in noise cancelation than the other models that I've mentioned bose comes in an incredible 2nd place beats noise cancelations are trash. The sound quality on the Sony's are fantastic. The seamless touch interface on these headphones are fantastic. I recommend these headphones for anybody that wants quality NCH with great sound. I can vacuum my entire house I can do my laundry and never hear any of the machines running or the vacuum running when I'm listening to my music. Well done Sony.

One Word: Awesome!!
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A little background, I have been enjoying my silence in the office during the lockdown as most people either be working from home or coming in shifts thereby creating an extremely peaceful work environment. Fast forward a couple of months, people showing up in the office increased exponentially and so did all the gossips they had to share. So I bought these headphones on a whim. There hasn't been a single day in the office that I have not used them. They are amazing in all respects. Let start in the order of qualities I appreciate in them. ANC: The best feature of these headphones for me is the active noise cancellation. All the chatter and bs is just blocked to the point where you can enjoy a dumbed-down version of the silence. Make no mistake, they will not completely make your environment similar to pin-drop silence but be rest assured you shall feel the difference for sure. Battery: I don't care about the numbers but there hasn't been a single day that I have run out of the juice in them. That doesn't mean they won't but just means if you are judicious enough to keel an eye on the battery and keep charging for a couple of hrs, you are good. In case you do forget, good old wired technology is for your rescue. Sound: It's SONY, enough said. The sound quality is amazing. The sound stage is wide, well balanced, and yes the EQ does come in handy for a bass lover like me. Build quality: You get what you pay for, so since you paying the premium you do get lightweight, well build headphones. The headband is comfortable. The ear cups have the right amount of cushion and do not get bothersome even after 10hrs of use. That is the max I have tried on a single stretch. The ANC feature can make you feel a little uncomfortable with weird pressure feeling but I could live with it for 10hrs. EXTRA: Speak to chat, amazing function when in office worst when you are at home and your jam comes on. The touch on the right ear cup is flawless. Every time I want to execute a function, it is done. Final: I would highly recommend this investment.

Traded my Bose 45s for these!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I returned my Bose 45s for these, and I’m super glad I did! I got the blue pair when I wanted the black, because they didn’t have them. I gave it a try anyway. These are far superior! The ease of connection, the swipe to control the music without touching my phone, and you hold your hand over the cuff to cancel the noise control. I love these and wear them at home, work and the gym! If your considering these- don’t hesitate! You’ll love them! They are very light and even after hours I am not sweaty at all. The app is easy to use also. Thanks Best Buy!

Great new color! Same great sound.
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great new color! I have a few Sony over ear headphones, and these are the latest pair. They offer great overall sound. The highs are high and the bass is palpable! Another great offer for this set is that the battery life has been extended further. I have paired these with many items so far, and the customization offered by the app is just outstanding. These are a great investment for those who travel, like NC, or for people who just enjoy headphones that provide excellent sound quality. I got these on sale. If you see these on sale grab them quickly.

Can't Travel Without
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are so much better than I had anticipated and hoped! I used them for a flight to Australia from the US (New York) and it was the best decision I made. They are lightweight, easy to set up with a phone or iPad, came with cables to plug into the plane seats so I could enjoy movies with my own headphones, and just overall have great sound quality and noise canceling. I honestly don’t think I could have made it through the long-haul flight without these headphones. When I took them off to talk with my partner, it was night and day in terms of noise. I was incredibly surprised with the noise canceling qualities and before coming back my partner bought a pair of headphones as well. The only downside, for me, is that they are slightly loose since my head seems to be a bit too small (I don’t have the top band resting tightly on my head if I want perfect placement for the ear cups) but overall, that is something I could look past since I don’t plan to do anything incredibly physical with them on.

||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones, I use them everyday and the customization in the app is really neat too. The bass and volume possibly might make me deaf but who cares lol. Only con is that my headphone ear broke and I can’t get them fixed even though I still have a warranty. They only offer fixing for wear or tears, and there’s a fee (I think $99) with their partnered company or something but they only fix the headband part so…

Posted .Thank you for the review, Chemlah!
We’re thrilled to hear you’re loving the sound and having fun with the custom settings in the app—though we definitely recommend keeping those ears safe so you can enjoy the bass for years to come!
We are, however, concerned to hear about the broken ear cup and the frustration you've experienced with the repair options. While our standard manufacturer’s warranty typically covers internal components and factory defects, we understand how disappointing it is when a physical break occurs on a product you use every day.
We would like to take a closer look at your case to see if there are any other options available for you. Please reach out to us directly at https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=headphones so we can review the details of your situation.
Thank you for being part of the Sony family and for the shout-out to that XM4 bass!

||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not an audiophile by an any means, but the sound quality in my opinion is so nice! Comfort wise, I would say the band on top gets a little uncomfy after around an hour of wear.. I don’t tend to wear them for too long, but it would be something to consider if that relates to you. No worries regarding battery life, it holds up far longer than what’s expected in my opinion. Overall really nice, would recommend!

Good value worth the price
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had no problems pairing with my TV. Though it seems to be a bit of a hassle to pair with a second item. Can be done, but not worth it to do right now for me. Audio range and sound are good. Not as nice, crisp or dynamic as my Monster DNA headphones (but they are wired). They are quite comfortable, can wear them for hours binge watching TV. Which is what I got them for - being up late watching TV without disturbing others in the household. Battery life is great! Could binge a few days on a full charge. I only need to charge once a week. Packaging and quality are good. Was not interested/concerned with noise canceling, but now that I have it, it is nice. Works well. Was not even aware of it at first, but one time I removed them and realized all the noise it had been removing (furnace, clothes dryer, ext.) Very aware of how much this does now and appreciate the feature. Not having to adjust the volume up or down every time the furnace kicks on or off is nice.
