Even better than the XM3s!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Almost identical design to the previous generation (apparently the foam on the ears is a little bigger?) but they have a few new features that warranted the upgrade for me. As with the XM3s, amazing sound, comfort, and noise cancelation.

Sony hits the mark
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Never had wireless headphones before and Best Buy had these babies on sale. They sound great and are comfortable to wear and how convenient to use. I didn't like the sony app for these so much but once set up I don't really use it anymore. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone.

Excellent headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We got these headphones as most reviews posted showed them as one of the best noise canceling headphones around. The headphones don’t disappoint. They cancel background noise very well, the sound is really good with punchy bass, and the battery lasts. I’m glad they use usb type c which is the new norm. There’s also a companion app that adds features and is very convenient. All in all I am very satisfied with this purchase and highly recommend.

You can't go wrong.
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use these almost every day. I also have the Bose Quiet Comfort 35 II's. They can't hold a candle to the Sony's. The noise cancelling is first rate and they are very comfortable. for long term use. Love the ability to turn the noise cancelling off with the touch of a hand.

Great Headset
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great head set. The noise canceling is pretty amazing. Got it for my work from home office. Being able to connect to two devices at once is great. The mic could be a bit better, but works sufficiently well. Battery life is plenty sufficient. Got it on Black Friday sale, so price was reasonable. I only wish there was a mute button on the headset, which is the only reason I gave it 4 stars.

Good purchase
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I do transcript work and this works perfectly. It blocks outside noises, but when I speak it allows me to hear room noise. A charge lasts a long time and it turns off automatically. Plus with wireless, I can move from my computer without removing headset.

Great product
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The reason that I bought this product is because due to COVID I have to work from home and the noise cancellation and the battery life futures were the main reason of this purchase - I don't have to hear my dog, my teenager son and my mother talking and distracting me while I'm working.
