    If I wear these while cutting the grass, I cant hear the lawnmower running... so if you trying to block out the outside world these work as advertised. Sound quality superior to beats. Make sure not to pay retail, no headset is worth $350. Charging cord is smaller than a micro johnson, not sure why they cheaped on that

    These headphones are on the expensive side but not as expensive as the BOSE 700s. The sound quality both Bluetooth and wired sound very good and clear even at very high volumes. It is definitely worth the price.

    The Sony’s are a good set of headphones, but I’ll be looking for another set, as I’m more interested in sound rather than noise canceling, assistants, and all the other things that everyone looks for these days. All I want is great sound, and the ability to turn the volume up as loud as I want too for listening to music. I’ll have to look at audiophile headphones I guess. Everyone raves about these, but I really don’t feel their worth the money. I’ll most likely keep these as spares, or give them away to my daughter. Also Sony needs to do some serious work on their app for the headphones, quite frankly, I found it worthless, especially for the cost of the headphones. So the search continues for a great set of headphones.

    I've had a pair of QC35's from Bose and while those are great, the Sony's are far more comfortable, have better noise cancelling and the sound quality is superior. Highly recommended.

    Move over Bose, the Sony Wh-1000XM3 has just taken over as the “BEST”! The Sony’s are more comfortable super easy to use and set-up. I used Bose for years, but these are hands down the best! I would buy them again!
