    Noise Canceling Features Didn't Work

    Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I recently purchased these. They have a nice premium weight and feel. However, the earbuds did not fit well no matter what tips I used. Additionally, the noise-canceling features that I was looking forward to did not work as expected. I would not recommend these earbuds to others, as I believe there are better options available on the market in the same price range. It's essential to consider other options before investing in this pair of earbuds, as the overall experience can be frustrating and disappointing if the fitment and / or features do not meet your expectations.

    I have owned a pevious model of these earbuds, which eventually died, and that pair had good noise cancellation but this version of earbuds the noise cancellation is not as effective and not as distinctive as the previous model. The sound clarity if average and I have a pair of tone that are just as good. For the money I would go with a different brand. I do appreciate Sony's products but these earbuds not what I expected.
