Worth the price, still wait for a sale.
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well, this is a premium set of headphones. And it definitely delivers. Noise cancelling is great, comfort is great, and sound is amazing. Very convenient having multiple devices on Bluetooth. The cost is high, so you may want to hold out for a sale, but they’re a good pair of headphones.

Great Headphones with
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Battery life is so good lasts almost 2 weeks with my usage of almost 2 hours daily. Noise cancelling is amazing but it reduces battery life a bit. Sound quality is not too bad as well. NFC pairing is always good to have. I do not use the google assistant feature, as I prefer to map the touch controls for volume and ambient control

Best NC Headphones I've Used
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got these on sale for $275 (down from $350) and am very, very happy with them. They ranked as good or better than both Bose and Apple AirPods Max in many, many comparisons and - even at full price - are the cheapest of the 3. The noise cancelling truly is next level. They sound amazing as well. A really immersive experience. You can fine tune the sound to your liking via an equalizer that you control from the included Sony app. There are lots of other bells, whistles and gadgets - adaptive noise cancellation (NC adjust automatically based on your environment) and Sony's proprietary 360 degree sound codec. The codec is nifty and sounds amazing but is only available on three premium music services (Deezer, Tidal & Amazon HD) and kept behind an expensive paywall on all of them. To be honest - ALL music sounds just great on these. Your mileage may vary as to if this is something that you HAVE to have. I probably won't be renewing the free 3 month Deezer trial that comes with the cans. The MAIN showcase here are the noise cancelling and sound quality which are both top grade. You could take away the other stuff and these would still be worth the price point.

Me likey
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the design. Love the sound quality. But if you love deep base and loud music they arent as loud as the QC 45’s. Although, they do have a cleaner sound… Overall great but definitely think about the what type of listening you’ll be doing. Also the touch remote is annoying sometimes but thats just me

Worth the money!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are by far the best headphones I have ever listened to. I was a bit hesitant to pay the price tag these come with. So I bought a less expensive brand, I was dissatisfied and returned them for the Sony WH-1000XM4. I am so glad I did! The old saying "you get what you pay for" is certainly relevant here!
