    I love the sound of Bose and they are more comfortable but call quality was terrible. The Sony XM4 were better in all fields except comfort. I got mine for 184.00 where as the New Bose were over 300, no brainer, returning the Bose

    I first purchased the samsung buds which were really terrible. Returned them before leaving the parking lot. These, however, are really great headphones. Everything about them is great, well not everything. They are a bit bigger than my jabra elite 75t active. But they sound soooo much better. The feel good in the ear. Probably shouldnt wear them for more than a couple of hours though. You start to feel them in the ear. Excellent noise cancelling. Totally an impulse buy, buy if you have the cash to blow, why not?

    Good sound but call quality is horrible

    Have had these for a week and I love the sound quality. Very full sounding with good bass and clear highs. The app could use some work…I would love to see more options for being able to blend the left and right stereo sound or maybe some DSP setting similar to 360 audio for stereo music. The call quality with these is absolutely horrible. When you have on noise canceling and answer a call it turns the microphones on im assuming so you can hear your voice in your ears. The result is a barrage of noise dumped in your ears during your phone call. It is especially noticeable driving. We need an option to not hear our voice when ANC is in use. I use voice to text often and the same noise issue. It is a software issue but it’s bad enough that I may return these and possibly repurchase in a few months. Overall I like the sound from these but everyone I have talked to with the said they had a hard time hearing me on phone calls. My Air Pods Pro were the exact opposite. Great call quality and poor sound for music. I really hope Sony can fix the issues with software updates because I want to love these…right now they are just OK.

      Hi Clay, thank you for purchasing our newest industry-leading noise canceling earbuds. We're glad you like the sound quality of it. We're sorry to hear that you have an issue with your SONY unit. Your voice will be heard from the headset through the headset’s microphones (Sidetone function). In this case, ambient sounds or the sounds of the earbuds operation may be heard through the headset, but this is not a malfunction. We suggest to use the smartphone or mobile phone at least 50 cm (19.69 in.) away from the earbuds. Noise may result if the smartphone or mobile phone is too close to the headset.
      We also recommend that you update your headphones with the latest firmware.
      If you require any additional support in regards to this product, please email us at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details: Name: Username: Model Number: Issue: Telephone Number:

      Thank you for choosing SONY. ~Earl Sony_US

    Quality is good at beginning for two weeks but after heavy use it’s not same as in the beginning. I think Sony should start program to fix to original sound as it came with package. It’s like old used car is not same as brand new. I would recommend buy only if extra budget.

    Nothing compares, my friend argues that the seinheisser have superior sound quality but they dont come close to compact size, battery life, and ease of use. Pluse the price point is jusf right for the competition. I would choose these over pods pro. I am a android user over apple but i have a apple for work and these work fine with that too. The ear sorness goes away by day 3. Day one use them for 2 hours. Day 2 use them for 4. Then by day 3 your ears are used to them and you wont notice any discomfort from The pressure points.

    A bit spendy, but really great earbuds! Noise cancellation very works well and sound quality is impressive. One caveat to be aware of: these will not fit if you have small-ish ears. My 13 year old son couldn't fit them in his ears with the smallest tip.
