A nice upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Haven’t had a pair of headphones for 3-4 years. After my last pair of Sony headphones broke & played out I just stuck with in-ears. But I really did miss them so I purchased these at a nice sale. The sound is great and the noise canceling does what I need it to. The volume is great as well. Even on low I still can’t hear much unless it’s something really loud in the background. The only thing I’d suggest is immediately changing the settings on the app for the noise canceling. Out the box, the feature that turns noise canceling off and lowers the volume when ppl approach you to talk or whatever is super sensitive. Thought I got a defective pair since the sound kept cutting out every time I breathed, blinked, or thought about breathing or blinking lol.

Love em.
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love them. They are the best sound you can get for headphones that have all of the mobile friendly features that these have (Bluetooth, noise cancel, airplane adapter, mobile app with eq adjustments, multi device connections, nice travel case, wired & wireless). If you strictly want the best audiophile headphones you won’t find all of these features. With these features though, these are the best sound quality cans you can get. Maybe not out of the box, but with eq adjustments you can fine tune in the mobile app. You will NOT be disappointed by these. - budget audiophile hobbyist who uses these for best sound quality while on the go.

Best headphones I’ve ever tried out!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these as a gift for my mother as she does her bible studies online. I just wanna say all the hype behind the noise-canceling on these headphones is legit. As soon as you put them on, almost everything goes completely quiet. I reminds me of those hearing test headphones that do those low tone beeps lol, its that good! Oh, and they sound really good too and have a nice build quality!

Great sound, not so great noise cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My old, wired QuietComforts had finally come to a time they needed replacing, and I knew I wanted to get a high quality pair of wireless headphones. Sound quality is big for me, and equally important is the noise cancellation since I work in an open office and spend a fair amount of time on flights. While these Sony headphones definitely deliver on sound quality (the app is cool, if not kind of quirky, too), the noise cancellation is not as good as my old QCs. Also, switching Bluetooth between devices is unnecessarily difficult, requiring you to restart the headphones. I don't regret the purchase, but if i could do it again, i think I'd splurge for the XM5s or the QC 700s.
