    This has the best sound quality, however, I did not like the size and how hard it is to take it off the case. There simply is not enough grip to take it out of the charging case. You have to try it to understand what I am talking about.

    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.
