    So far, after having these headphones for a while, I think they're all right. I bought them because I was going on a big trip, and on the plane, they held up pretty good and were nice to have. However, I also brought my AirPods to see the difference, and to be honest, it wasn't that much of a difference that 300 dollars is buying you. These headphones sound great, and that's pretty much all they offer: good-sounding wireless headphones. However, I can't say it's worth the $ 300 price tag. I'd say if you're looking for good quality headphones,s they're other options better for your pocket to,o and If you already own noise canceling wireless headphones like AirPods Pro 2nd gen or of the same generation, I'd say just stick with as these headphones are really that much of an incentive to buy them they're also from 2016

    These headphones are almost guaranteed to fit anyone right off the bat. The sound is stellar. The ANC is unbelievable. The look is incredibly clean. The functions are above all else. Even the app glows well to have the added functionality. I highly recommend these to everyone and area WELL worth the price.

    I struggle finding headphones that don’t weigh my head down or make my ears ache especially when I wear hats. I HAVE NEVER felt uncomfortable wearing these I could wear these all day and not get tired.

    I already owned one Bose QuietComfort 35 II wireless Bluetooth headphones. The sound is great, but it can't cover my ears fully which makes the noise cancellation function less effective. I tried the new Sony WH-1000XM4 at a local Best Buy store and really like the comfort and sound quality. : )

    From the perspective of a college student, these are really great headphones as they are comfortable to wear for extended time periods and I especially love their noise-canceling feature. Would also recommend downloading the Sony app as this allows you to customize the headphones further to your liking.

    Great head set. The noise canceling is pretty amazing. Got it for my work from home office. Being able to connect to two devices at once is great. The mic could be a bit better, but works sufficiently well. Battery life is plenty sufficient. Got it on Black Friday sale, so price was reasonable. I only wish there was a mute button on the headset, which is the only reason I gave it 4 stars.

    Great set of Headphones. I prefer these over the Beats over the ear studio because they're much lighter. Way more comfortable to wear. I wish they were wireless with the new PS5 but hopefully they'll come out with an update that allows them to. The Best Buy exclusive navy color is gorgeous.

    These headphones are in my opinion the best headphones money can buy right now. They are very comfortable and sound amazing, deep bass, clear mids, and clear highs. The highs aren't so sharp that they're ear piercing though but they are very clear.

    Great headphones, bought these and the new Beats Studio pro and immediately returned the Beats. Super comfortable, no ear fatigue. Sound is great! Only thing keeping this from 5 stars is they fit a little too loose for certain gym movements.
