    Sound quality on these headphones is amazing. Using them I heard ambient sounds I had never heard before in some of my favourite pieces of media. The noise cancellation is fantastic and I love the ability to turn it off by placing a hand over the right cup. Very highly recommended.

    Overall they are great headphones. Sound Cancelation is amazing. The Sony app has some cool features and the eq is nice to mess with. Most other features are pretty useless in my opinion though. My biggest issue is it can only be paired to one device at a time. So for instance if Im paired to my phone then want to watch on the firestick even though it’s on the firestick to pair to it won’t. You have to unpair and repair every time. It’s a minor inconvenience for otherwise great headphones

    Got these for work so I don't have to hear the guy next to me arguing on his phone with his wife. They are great, whether l put music on or just go with the noise cancellation. I do a lot of flying and these are awesome for airplane noise. You can put the music on soft and still hear it. I also like the way to turn up or down the volume.

    This is the first pair of over-ear headphones that I've been able to wear for more than an hour before they start to hurt, and I've tried at least half a dozen. Not only can I wear them all day, I can sleep in them, and when I'm traveling, I do. They've been lifesavers in some noisy hotels and Airbnbs. The app works pretty well. I can quickly adjust the settings to from full noise cancelling to "focus on voices" which allows only vocal range through. I can hold conversations with these on. My one and only grievance is with the touch controls. I don't love them. The double-tap to play/pause is not my favorite, and the swiping for volume and track changes can be inaccurate. That said, you can get better at them with practice, and every other thing about them is so good, it makes it easy to overlook this. One nice thing about the touch controls is that you can put your palm over the right 'phone and it will drop the volume and enhance voices immediately, so you can hear people trying to talk to you at a moment's notice without having to take them off. That's cool.

    I had bought it long ago, and I am loving it, really loving it. the sound quality is amazing, and having noise-canceling too makes it that much better but when it gets hot and you using it outside, beware it can make you sweat more then ever, well at least for me I was sweating more around the earcups, but other then that its wonderful

    Purchased after losing my Bose corded noise canceling headphones. I fly frequently and use the headphones to reduce exposure to airplane noise and reduce the fatigue of travel. I often use the headphones without music or any other sound playing. The Sony achieve greater quietness and less crackle than the Bose they replace. I feel they sound a little better when playing music but I think this is very subjective. I gave them 4 stars cause for $350 they should be a concert hall in my head- when they are more like a pretty good classic stereo.

    They’re awesome! I’ve had them for about 3 months already and they’re the best gym headphones! I use them for running also. They stay in place but I like them for the quality sound. I have used it for travel also and the noise canceling on them is crazy good!

    Sony is on the cutting edge. The noise cancelation is adjustable via an app—it adjusts sonit isn’t under or overcompensating. You really don’t want noise cancellation when you are in a super quiet room I’ve had the Bose qc35–I couldn’t wear them outside bc the noise cancelling mic would pick up wind & start whistling, no way to turn it off,
