Best headphones I've had so far.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As an audiophile, I've been looking for noise cancelling headphones that also have good quality sound and range. These have checked all the requirements so far, and more! They're comfortable to the point I can wear them 8+ hs a day, and switch between meetings and music seamlessly. The noise cancelling is so good my roommates need to signal to me in order for me to look up. I thought the gestures were going to take some time to learn but it hasn't been the case, they're intuitive. The remove noise cancelling to talk works really well. Too well sometimes. I'd be walking close to someone talking and it will activate. The option to have two devices connected hasn't worked for me so well, I had issues switching from my phone to my laptop with the result of the laptop switching back to its speakers. It might be my MBP, I haven't tried with other devices yet. She sound quality is excellent, as expected from Sony, the sound is crisp and balanced, with a good range.

Solid headphones.

Phenomenal noise cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these specifically for their noise cancelling capabilities. They do that extremely well. I can block out all of the background traffic and office noise easily without even playing any music. They also excel at music reproduction and the app allows you to tailor the equalizer to your liking. I worry about durability as they are made of plastic and have hinges but so far they seem fine. I only need to charge them every 3 days or so. They can connect to two devices simultaneously.

Great headphones all around!
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is the latest (mark 4) version of these wireless headphones. I really like them so far. They are very comfortable and do not feel like they are super tight on my head, as cheaper headphones do. The sound is, well, Sony: very good. I hesitated for a long time because of the price, but they are well worth every penny. If there is a negative, it’s due to the fact that the sound via Bluetooth is not as superior as wired headphones. However this isn’t really a negative at all, because it’s a given that wireless technology itself is just not going to deliver the same frequency range as wired audio. These are my walking headphones. So, I’m not going to be as attentive to the purity of sound as I would be if sitting down for a listening session. The extra features are useful (noise cancellation; ambience control)—however, they will drain the battery faster than using the headphones with those extra features disabled.

The NC and the 360 audio is really impressive at this price point. I like the build quality a lot better than the Bose. I rarely have to worry about charging. Highly recommend. Also the case is perfect for travel. This is my second pair. First one got stolen :(

If you have the money, get them
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve had these for a little over two months now and they’ve been great. I got these headphones in particular after being told they aren’t harsh on the ears, which is an important thing for me. They fit and feel wonderful, even with all of my earrings on. As for the actual sound of the headphones, everything sounds great to me. The noise canceling is especially great since I use these in noisy environments and hardly anything distracts me from my work when I have these on. So if you are looking to get headphones, these are a great option.
