    These are the best headphones I have everrrrr owned. Although I kind of regret buying the headphones in black and I wished I should've bought them in silver. Anyways it doesn't matter the quality and sound of these headphones are amazing! I also enjoyed the noise-canceling option, I can finally stop hearing my upstairs neighbors from doing a ton of noise.

    I bought this during thanksgiving, assuming this was a good product. However this model has serious connectivity issues. It does not automatically connect to your paired Bluetooth device (at least my headphone) and you need to reset the headphone every time before connecting which is pain. Quite disappointed but I am sure Sony will fix it in future.

    I'd actually purchased same item 10/31 and then saw Black Friday sale - sadly wasn't allowed to price match so forced to return 1st pair only to buy same again but $100 less. GREAT headphones, though. Excellent sound & great noise cancelling. Sorry to waste employee time returning and restocking but wasn't letting a $100 savings go.

    Good but not great. The bass is hands down really good. The mids I can’t seem to get down to my taste but highs are good. Overall they do provide a good sound experience. The app is ok because of the equalizer but aside from that it sucks. The dual device connection is crap. They sometimes connect without any problems but 8 out of 10 times it doesn’t connect. Sometimes it says the headset connects to my iPhone but the app will say it’s not. I have to delete all connections and start all over. Overall on sale they’re worth the buy. Full retail...wouldn’t recommend.

    I've tried various models/brands of noise cancelling headphones, and these are the best overall. The NC works really well, the audio is really good, including bass delivery without crushing the mids. I think these are a bit better than the v3 in sound, and maybe a little in NC, but the differences are not huge. These seem to have less of a plastic "creak" when handling than the v3.

    My first pair of headphones and I love them so much! The noise canceling feature is super nice to have especially whenever I'm in a noisy environment and I'm able to hear more of the bass out of my songs than I've ever heard before. I use these almost daily and I can't get enough of these headphones!

    I am 80% deaf and am not able to read the fine print any longer. I listen to audible books, these headphones are the answer to transient sounds leaking around the seals of the ear muffs. I am extremely satisfied with these headphones, words cannot express my appreciation of these very comfortable and hearable headsets.
