Sync with me Sony
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love how this fits on my ears, it's comfortable and sounds good. The problem is when I have it connected to my tv, the audio and connectivity will have a delay sometimes and I have to either turn the headphones off or go through the sounds menu back to the headphones again to have it in sync again. Hopefully this is just a blip.

Posted .Hi Deevs, Thank you for the awesome review! Good to know you love the comfortable fit and great sound quality of your new headphones. The audio playback on this unit may be delayed from that on the transmitting device, due to the characteristics of Bluetooth wireless technology. As a result, the sound may not be in sync with the image when viewing movies or playing games.

Not for me
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Unfortunately I did not love these and ended up returning. The set up was not easy, I did not like that I needed to download apps in order for these to connect. They also had trouble connecting at times. The quality for music wasn’t great. Used with apple products (ipad and iphone), and plugged into a windows computer with the wire provided. Another problem is that they do not connect to Windows bluetooth. Now the pros, they do last a while so battery life is great and the noise cancellation is great too. I did not feel discomfort wearing them for a while. Also liked that it announces battery life and when the headphones are off and on.

Posted .Hi MDReview, Thank you for sharing your feedback on the headphones. We are sorry to hear about the issues you experienced. It seems like you faced several challenges with the setup and connectivity, particularly with the need to download apps and the difficulty in connecting to Windows Bluetooth. Additionally, the music quality did not meet your expectations when used with Apple products and a Windows computer and the unit had to be returned.
On the positive side, it's great to hear that you found the battery life and noise cancellation to be excellent, and that the headphones were comfortable to wear for extended periods. The feature of announcing battery life and power status also seems to have been a useful addition for you.
For future reference, if you encounter similar issues with other Sony products, you might find helpful information and support on the Sony Community forums. For example, there are discussions about Bluetooth headphone connection problems and troubleshooting steps for the Sony Headphones Connect app. You can visit the Sony Community or send us an email at socialsupport@am.sony.com for more details and support.

Good but bit pricey!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Decent product! Still learning all these headphones can do! My recent flight to LA was a good test for this product and it did well! The noise canceling, ambient noise features and fasforward/rewind/pause features worked very good, love the mid night blue color! The wireless and bluetooth capabilities were good, paired fairly quick with my phone, TV, AV receiver and laptop. Not sure if it's needed or not but the app for these headphones helped me out, so I'd suggest downloading and using the app for these headphonesl!! Too early yet to give 5 stars, so far so good! I need to see how durable this product will be over time before giving 5 stars! Bit pricey though but thanks for BB gift card, previous BB credit on acct and Christmas gift card from coworker, I was able to afford these headphones, don't think I would have purchased them had that not been the case! So far however, this product is good and I would recommend them if you can afford them but if not, try and wait til they go on sale!!

Best Active Noise Cancelling
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These have way better active noise cancelling than my prior pair of Soundcore Q45 ANC headphones as well as a longer battery life. That being said the sound quality is exactly the same, so if you're hesitant about spending this much on a pair of headphones they're an amazing alternative.

Best headset ever!
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This Sony headset is so comfortable to wear. After 16 hrs on a plane, my ears don’t ache because of the supreme padding. I bought Bose, which are supposed to be the best, don’t waste your money on the Bose. The Sony really is noise cancellation! Even screaming babies & loud crying kids on a plane were silenced. I will buy another Sony headset.

Best noise cancelling headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Upgraded from the WH1000XM2. Headphone is much lighter and more comfy than the XM2. Sound quality is almost the same, but noise cancelling is definitely better. Can't wait to fly again in a plane to really test these out.
