Disappointed.

Posted .Hi GuestHouse,
We regret to hear that you are already looking to return the headphones. Make sure to update the software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app) for optimum performance. The noise canceling function is effective in low-frequency ranges such as airplanes, trains, offices, near air-conditioning, and is not as effective for higher frequencies, such as human voices.
These steps may also help improve your experience with the noise canceling function:
-Make sure that the noise canceling function is turned on.
-Adjust the headset into a comfortable position.
-Check that the Adaptive Sound Control is turned off. Check the setting of the Adaptive Sound Control on the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app. When the Adaptive Sound Control is turned on, the noise canceling function may become insufficient.
-With the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app, check the setting of [Ambient Sound Control]. If it is set to [Wind Noise Reduction] or [Ambient Sound], the effect of noise canceling is reduced. Set it to the noise canceling mode.
-Disable Speak-to-Chat, and check whether the situation has improved.
-Check with the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app whether the function of the CUSTOM button is set to [Ambient Sound Control].

Disappointed
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The right side did not work the first day and I tried factory resetting and it still did not work and I was about to return it and I tried it again the next day, it worked then. 3 weeks later the right side sound stopped completely. The touch works but no sound is coming out of it and I tried everything but nothing seems to work :(

No mute button, worthless for Work from Home

Posted .Hi Janet,
We're sorry to hear the syncing issues with your headphones. We understand your concern but you have to consider the factors that could effect the connection between the headphones and the television like for example distance. The maximum communication distance may vary depending on the presence of obstacles (people, metal objects, walls, etc.) or the electromagnetic environment.
Regards,
David

These R the Best Noice cancelling headphones EVER
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I Had no Issue with delivery, I love Best Buy, I purchase these headphones a little over a year ago, and they are great Noise Cancelling Head Phones, and are still great, They can pair with 2 devises at once with Bluetooth, The case they come in is Cool, I wear them everyday almost all day and they are comfortable and stable, nothing broke yet and I'm not that gentile with them, I recommended my headphone to a neighbor who needed to drown out her upstairs neighbors music and when I bought them they were only $250, now they are $350 which is a drastic increase in price, Just because you realized they were really good headphones from the feed back you were receiving doesn't justify charging and extra $100, that's just Greed Greed Greed, but they are worth the price, however, I suggest you not hike up your prices like that because if they were originally $350 I would not have purchased them to even give this glowing review. Now I know how awesome they are, and I would buy them again at this new Price, that's how great they are, I know the Price Point is High people, but you will not be sorry, you get what you pay for!!!

One star for the durability
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.i was happy with my purchase at the beginning. Almost reaching my 2nd year with these. Recently I got an extremely loud whistle sound coming from the left ear. The whistle sounds come and goes so I can't enjoy using the headphones anymore. Sad that I didn't even reach the 2nd year with these which is why I am giving it one star
