    Coming from a DJ, So far these are the absolute best earphones I’ve ever owned. Best buy gave me a good warranty too so I don't have to worry.

    the anc and the passive audio were great. i even enjoyed the app and the feel of the headphones. everything was great except....the battery life. i bought these things the night before i had a flight in the morning. i fully charged them and did not use them until on the plane. they didnt even last 2 full hours. luckily they charge pretty quick in the case so i was able to charge them for about 15 minutes and get another hour use out of them. But come on. 2 hours?

    Be aware, after purchasing product less than a year, well taken care of earbuds, battery drains on left side within 10 min with almost 100% charge. Disappointed with this purchase, hoping Sony or Best Buy can stand behind the products they sell or produce to their consumers.

    Clear sound with balanced highs and lows without even using the equalizer on Sony app. It provides good thumping bass for workouts and jogging. But the left earbud stopped working after 25 days. Bestbuy did not return because I did not buy their support extra. Though they gave Sony support contact. Sony is replacing it. The whole ordeal was for 15 days. Yet to test my replacement earbuds.
