    Very good headphones but if you have small head difficult to adapt and then you will feel how heavy they are under your ears. Painful if can not fit perfectly to the size of your head.

    Great product but this new frame ware makes it so that you get this random white noise only in one ear and it’s dumb annoying. But once they fix that, if they fix that, they will be perfect.

    Unfortunately, these headphones were disappointing from the moment I opened the box. They arrived with no battery life, so I charged them for an hour (the 5 hours per 10 minute charge didn't seem to deliver as advertised). When I finally turned them on, this loud screeching sound came out of the left ear speaker. The only way to stop it was to turn off the Noise Canceling effect. I tried turning the device off and on numerous times - even gave it three days to see if it would go away, but the screeching continued whenever Noise Canceling was turned on. Since they fit comfortably, I figured I'd try another pair of the same model by exchanging them at my local Best Buy. However, they were sold out of both colored models and couldn't order another pair from a different location because they were sold out everywhere within 200+ miles. I tried looking elsewhere Online, but you can't even get them off Amazon at this time, and no one knows when Sony will ship them again. After trying numerous other brands, I was convinced to settle for the Sony 1000 XM2 (same price as the XM3), but I intend to return them. They don't fit as comfortably and the ambient sound quality isn't even comparable to the XM3. Not sure why Best Buy charges the same price for these two models - doesn't seem right. Will update my review when/if I get another pair.
