Great product
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They cancel sound great, or at least softens loud noises, good sound quantity, they are really comfortable and I love the color. If you take them off it pauses what you are listening to and resumes when you put them back on. The only annoying feature is if I say something or clear my throat it pauses, but resumes about 20 seconds later on its own. All in all 5 stars.

The sound quality is amazing and the time it takes to reach 0 charge is so LONG. Never had something that stayed charged for such a long while. 1

Great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall, this is a great product. I love the ability to be able to simultaneously connect with two bluetooth devices without having to disconnect from one of them. The sound quality, and noise cancelling is superb. There are more features than I really use, but these headphones are exceptionally capable, and easy to use. I don't think they're quite as comfortable as the prior generation (which I also use), the cushion around the ear isn't quite as soft... but some people may like it a little more firm. But that doesn't mean that they're uncomfortable, just not quite a cozy as the XM3. For the money, they're great.

Just as good as Bose
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I also have the Bose QC-35 and the Sony is just as good and even better on some features. I like the way it fits and looks. The only thing I like better on the Bose is that when I first turn it on it tells you which device it is connecting to. The Sony doesn’t. Also, I find the Bose easier to connect to a new device. Besides that, I’m very happy with the Sony.

Best Daily Use Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been using these headphones for about a year now and it's been a game changer for my day-to-day. I work remote but the headphones work great for calls on all types of apps (zoom, google meets, teams, etc) and the ANC blocks off the background noise if you have some family. I only have the occasional connection issues but it isn't anything you can't fix with a quick reset.

Love these headphones!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the original XM1 (I think that is what they were called) and I returned them because I did not find them comfortable and for the price ($350) was not worth keeping. Flash forward a few years and I am a believer! Very comfortable, even for hours on end, sound is great and can now switch between 2 devices. I highly recommend this and since they are (were) on a Black Friday deal @ $298 it is a great deal.
