Good headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I found these headphones to be very comfortable. They work as advertised. The volume control on the right earcup needs a little work but they are quite satisfying. I would recommend them over the apple iPods max as the max is much heavier. The app works very well. Noise canceling is very good.

Great sound and battery life
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound and battery life seems good even after over a year of daily use. Wish I would have gone up to next model where you can connect to 2 Bluetooth and switch between. Only complaints are that when charging and using 3.5mm jack there is some feedback, and the rest pieces didn't allow much breathing for long use.

Good value and quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very comfortable to wear and do an excellent job of cancelling external sound. These work particularly well when one is playing music. And the quality of the speakers is very good. But just in case you think that these will cancel noise effectively without playing music - like if you want to do homework or something else and just block out noise - don't, because that won't happen. All in all, a great set of earphones though, and good value for the money.

Real does a good job
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Never had sound cancellation headphones before. They were more than I wanted to spend, even on sale. But I am glad I did and wish I had got them years ago. These work well. Use them at gym, beach and even at home if watching something when I don’t want to bother anyone. Just about tunes everything out. My wife’s not crazy about that. ;-) Battery lifer is good but not great when compared to my previous Sony headphones. Not sure but maybe something to do with sound cancellation ?

Super comfortable & top of the line ANC
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Was considering getting the cheaper version of Sony's ANC headphones but after trying side-by-side, really there is no comparison. If you want a pair of headphones you can wear comfortably for hours and have some of the best noise cancellation, these really are the top of the line.

Very comfortable, great sound
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very comfortable, easy to pair, and love the sound!! The noise cancellation drowns out everything. Noise cancellation with ambient sound let’s you hear your surroundings. The music stops if you take them off for a few minutes and automatically starts when putting them back on. Well worth the price!

||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My daughter wanted one and then I bought one about a week later. Yes they are expensive hence why the best buy credit card came in handy. I have always been a Bose kinda girl and never even tried Sony. EVER! I am not even a fan of the look but I am taking continuing education at the college and I like to study in the campus center and that place is so loud. The students are always yelling and while the amount of people help me stay focused the noise does not. These headphones are amazing they knock out all the noise. The really fun part is when you go to talk the music stops and you can hear the other people without having to remove them
