XM4 > any other headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are way better than AirPods Pro, Beats Studio and AirPods Max are too overrated and overpriced. Offers better sound quality and headphone itself from all of those including XM5, not really worth upgrading to the new ones plus you save $50. Not much of a difference XM5 from XM4, also XM5 feel cheaper quality. Just buy these.

One of the best over-ear wireless BT headsets
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I previously owned Bose QC 35 IIs, but I'm happy to be back in the Sony Eco-system. The ear cups are very comfortable and can be worn for hours at a time with minimal discomfort. A lot of convenient features such as the touch gestures, USB-C charging, and "hand over right earcup to talk to people" make this headset one of my favorite. The sound quality is on-par with the Bose, and I think the headband is more comfortable.

Great and Durable Headphones
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These have been great headphones. They've connected and worked flawlessly every time I've used them for the last 2+ years. They sound amazing, and they're definitely more comfortable to wear than my Bang & Olefsen Beoplay H9i headphones.

Sony Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are the best headphones I’ve ever had. The comfort and sound quality are unmatched and the ability to pause noise canceling with just holding your hand up to the earphone is very convenient.

Awesome headphones for true music lovers!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Absolutely love these headphones. Purchased a few goodies over the holiday sale period, and these are by far our favorite. Outperform our BOSE headphones, AirPod Pros, and Jabra Elite 85Ts (yes, I know these are not earbuds). The crazy good battery life, excellent spatial/3D/360 sound through Amazon Music, makes these an even better deal. Easily 20+ hours on a single charge. Buy them, you won't regret it.

Did you hear that?
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love it! I was sceptical of noise cancelling headphones, so I took a shot in the dark after a bit of comparisons online. I couldnt personally go out at test any, but I highly recommended before buying based on each persons' preferences. I have larger ears and it comfortably sits over them for extended periods of time. Sound quality is great and noise cancelation takes me to a deeper dimension of my dissociation.

WOW! First set of nice headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Never owned any headphones/headset that cost more than $100 until now. I've known for years from co-workers/friends and experience that Sony and Bose are the main names in the audio game. This headset consistently ranks higher than the Bose and they do not disappoint. I Love these headphones. Comfy. ANC works amazing. Use them on my iPad or iPhone without issue. The app is nice as well. Worth the holiday purchase 100%

Excellent Headphones, Poor microphone
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I want to love these headphones, but the microphone quality isnt clear. Noise cancelling is top notch. Super comfortable. Audio is excellent. App works with ease. Auto Bluetooth switching between laptop and phone is amazing. The one negative I cant get over is the microphone quality. I have to use these for work conference calls, and the people on the other side had trouble understanding me. I'll had to return these for a pair with better mic quality. If you plan on using these as just headphones and the occasional phone call, I would definitely buy these. If you need clarity of voice for conference calls and audio blocking, maybe try something else like the Bose or Surface Headphone.

Posted .Hi rh612, thank you so much for the 4 Star review. We are pleased you are satisfied with the incredible noise canceling function, amazing sound quality, multipoint connection function, and comfortable fit of these headphones. We are really sorry if the microphone quality did not live up to your expectations and that it needs to be returned. This is usually not the case and the experience we wanted you to have on our premium headphones.
The issues you encounter can be fixed by performing a firmware update as it Improves Bluetooth connection stability and Improves the hands-free calling quality. You may refer to the following link for more details:

Great sound and NC function
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Awesome headphones. I like to use these to drown out ambient noise while watching a movie. With the 360 sound imbedded into these phones it really immerses you into what you’re watching on screen. I actually prefer this to my sound bar. Also, the bass great but is not too punchy. The noise cancelling feature is my main selling point on these: drowns out a city bus and even on the subway. It may be a little pricey but you definitely get what you pay for.
