Very sweet noise-cancellation.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only other time I've ever used a noise-cancelling headphones was at the shooting-range. It works similar but not that extreme. I used these to study in Starbucks during heavy traffic. It does well in blocking, enough to concentrate and still be able to faintly hear your named being called.

Highly recommended!!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are great. I’ve had headphones from all kinds of brands, including Apple, Bose, and Soundcore, and these are by far the best. They look really nice and sound even better. Their noise cancellation and other features are far superior to anything I’ve owned to date.

Love this Headphones - Noise Canceling is 2nd to n
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Some of the best noise-canceling headphones I have ever owned and it's why Sony is at the top of the food chain for noise cancellations. The only con is they are comfortable for a few hours but if you wear glasses they may start to become a little less comfortable after a couple of hours.

Better than before!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There's a reason why they call this the king! The new sensor that stops media from playing is sensitive enough where it doesn't feel like a gimmick. The only one wish I have is more control for the multi-device; there should be a switch in app to switch instead of having to disconnecting one of the devices. Other than that, amazing!
