The King of over-the ear Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best over the ear headphones money can buy. They're light, they fit well, your ears and head don't get sore after extended use, and the sound quality is above and beyond what beats or Apple can provide. The only comparable brand is Bose, and you would be paying another $100-$200 for similar audio quality.

Great Noise Cancelling Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones! I am an avid gym person and wear them to workout. I would say the only think I would recommend are some silicone covers just because the foam material does soak up sweat!!!

Pretty Good
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like these headphones a lot. Pretty comfortable and light. Nice features and noise cancellation. They do not feel expensive but function like they are. I liked them enough to buy me and my brother a pair. The black pair is low key but the midnight blue pair adds a little touch of color but both are still subtle.

The Best A/N/C Headphones!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great Headphones, I had the 2nd generation and those were already quality headphones and these are still miles better, the notice canceling is top-notch. They are just as good as the Bose 700 which I have tried as well, even more comfortable, and for about 100 dollars left a much much better deal. Sony knows what they're doing!

Roku soundbar & LG TV
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I like the sound quality. They hook up easily to my Roku soundbar and LG tv. My complaint is that they do not easily switch from tv to phone if I get a call while watching. Very disappointing feature but I basically use them for my tv so it isn’t a dealbreaker.

Comfortable and great sound.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Headphone was very comfortable. I wore it while sleeping on a 5 hour flight and had no issues. The sound quality is great, watching movies and listening to music was a game changer for me. $350 is worth the price but is understandably expensive for most. If you ever see this on sale be sure to pick it up.

Comfortable and the noise cancelling feature is really, really good; I wear these all day at work as the ability to pair to 2 devices simultaneously is a game changer. The recent Sony headphones app update fixed a few issues I was having with Adaptive Sound. They’re perfect!

Comfortable

Solid choice
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.They're solid. I really wish they had buttons though, I need to press a button not swipe, i still haven't figured em out. But they definitely shut out the noise, maybe a bit too well honestly.
