Best Noise Cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound blocking is amazing. Used it on a 6 hours flight, didn't even realize a baby was crying in the seat directly behind me until I took them off, it had blocked out all the noise prefectly.

Better than Bose
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Money well spent. When it comes to NC headphones, Sony got it right with the XM3 and even better with the new XM4. Also love the Navy Blue color - very different and will stand out in a crowd. Just Go for it.

Amazing quality, kinda heavy
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought when there was 100$ off deal, but would’ve bought at normal price. Quality is amazing, but if I wear for too long it can feel heavy on my ears but first couple hours is fine.
