Really good value headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For 350$ these headphones have a great value for the sound and features it packs, for sure better than any headphones around this value, Bose 700 can’t compare to this at all. But if you “got money”, AirPods max is beyond this.

Wanted these for Teams
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really wanted these for Teams use in the office, but they just don't handle switching between stereo audio and headset audio when going back and forth from Teams calls to videos or Spotify etc. My Bose 700 seems to handle the task just fine, so I'll just use those for calls and keep the Sony's at home for music, cause they do sound amazing. Definitely like the sound better than the Bose, it just feels more alive. I wish the app had more information in it regarding the different features and what all the different settings and modes were for. The noise cancelling seemed to be on par with the Bose for office use, but I didn't really like the 'speak to switch' feature, when singing along to Spotify it would pick up my voice and paused my music for 10 seconds. Couldn't seem to turn it off while keeping the additional features of noise cancelling. Very premium feel, love the color and the non-flashy styling.

Great headphones.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headphones. The noise cancellation makes you feel like you’re in a void like in the TV shoes where everyone is in a all white room or area. Sadly it was a present for my wife and she preferred something else do had to return.

Great for music and below average for calls
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great for noice cancellation. Good music quality. But below average on call quality. Even a 10$ off brand Bluetooth headset performs bette on calls. Switching between mobile and pc is hit or miss. Pc holds the Bluetooth connection for ever so only option is to disable Bluetooth in pc to proceed. Still a 4 star because it’s worth it for the noice cancellation and music quality.

Posted .Hi Venkat,
We're glad that you like the music quality and noise canceling function of the headphones. Your feedback about the call quality and multipoint function is greatly appreciated. Make sure to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app) for optimum performance.
Depending on the device, silent streaming can continue on the first device when the second device has a Bluetooth connection to the headphones. If this is the case, the headphones remain connected to the first device, and the audio doesn't switch to the second device.
Follow these steps to hear sound from the second device:
1. Open the Sony | Headphones Connect app, select the System tab, and make sure the Connect to 2 devices simultaneously option is set to ON.
2. Stop playback on the first connected device.
3. Close the audio (music) application on the first connected device.
Hope this helps. Thanks for sharing your review and for choosing Sony.
