    These headphones have a great sound all around. I took them on a plane recently and almost fell asleep with them on, that is how good the noise cancellation is. I almost forgot how loud planes were with them.

    I bought these for my wife who had the Bose QC3 but wanted an upgrade. She decided the Sonys would be the best choice over anything Bose had. The noise cancelling is better than Bose and the phone app allows a lot of control. The price is high and I'm not convinced that any headphones are worth the money. They do what they say but is it worth the money?

    The noise cancelation is awesome and the features great. One reason I went with these over Bose was the option to cancel noise but mics outside conversation so that you can hear and converse with you neighbor on the airplane.

    Best ANC headphones I’ve tried so far

    If you have done your research on these, then you will see that these or the new Bose are the top rated ANC headphones. I’ve tried both and have found the Sony to be a bit better. These are the best it’s going to get for ANC. I mainly use these for work because we have the crappy open office setup and these really help cut down on the distractions.

    after opening box and charging headphones, synced with my phone and started listening. The noise cancellation is excellent and at times while listening, I had no idea what else was going on in my surroundings as it was so quiet

    Recently used these headphones while traveling round trip on the Amtrak Auto Train. The noise cancelling feature was amazing and the sound quality was out of this world! Will be using them on future flights as well.

    Nose cancelling works awesome. The Google Assistant is very intuitive. In the app you can adjust all the skins settings on the headphones. I personally have not adjusted anything, but the sound quality is very good.

    I ended up having to return it due to some compatibility issues with some of my software on my laptop, but it was my laptops issue not the headset. Great quality, awesome noise cancelation, would have loved to keep it.

    Look, I have the top of the line Bose. However, I purchased these through a package with a 950 Sony TV, mount, and sound bar system. Let's just say, the headphones are great. If you want quality sound for every music, movie, or gameplay, they are worth it. If you are just a couch potato, theses aren't for you. Too complex for music.

    These headphones are easy to use and has great noise cancelling effect. They connect easily with NFC and Bluetooth. Sound quality is good. However I am noticing that it is bit bulky which you feel while putting it for long time. Also sometimes wifi connection gets lost when the headphones are functioning and it resumes as soon as you disconnet the headphones.

    Sound quality is great. It took some time to pair it with laptop. Found an article on web how to do it. Make sure you pair with WH-..., not LE_WH-... from the device list.

    They sound great. They filter out variable noise like talking way better than bose and the sound is crisper. Bose does do static sound better like air olane engines. The other issue is that after about a months use it started with static popping in the left ear. Bb allowed me to exchange them without issues. I read online it happens on some of the first models.

    Luxury is what comes to mind when i think of these. I can sleep on an airplane with these. Great pair of noise-canceling headphones. Great sound way better than the bose qc 35 2 which i tried out for a few weeks. The sonys let you play with the sound of the headphones and it has a decent companion app that lets you play with some settings. highly recommended!

    I have the Bose Quiet comfort for few years but bought the Sony for my son. Music is great and noise cancelling works great. I like the hand waving feature to pause the sound and all the control. Works great on phone call as well.

    Compared to Bose QC, the NC in Sony isnt the best, but the sound quality is awesome!! Wireless capacity is also good. I can go 2 rooms further and the connection doesnt drop off, whereas the Bose's dropped after like 20 feet.
