    The battery in this product stopped working within a week, and the company made it very difficult to efficiently and ethically resolve this problem, leading me to keep this product for several years without being able to turn it on.

    The noise cancellation isn’t the best, and i do not think this brand works well with Apple, in my opinion. It would switch it’s settings a lot and it was difficult to connect to other devices, over all they are nice and the sound quality was good

    Used for about a few weeks. And I enjoy it. Only caveat is that every time I turn it on, I have to select to turn off the noise canceling, rather that it going to the option it was before I turned off my headphones.

    When I received the headphones they were a different color to what I originally purchased. I wasn’t able to take them back in time because I received them the day before I headed off to uni. I thought I’d give them a try when I got there. They have alright sound but when receiving calls people have told me that it’s not the best quality. I think I may have gotten a dupe product or something different. I don’t have a car, so I wasn’t able to return them within the return window, however if I could change them with the right product, I.

      Hi SamaraL, We're sorry to hear about your headphones. For optimum performance, make sure that the software version of the headphones is up-to-date (via the Sony Headphones Connect app). These steps may also help when using the mic function of the headphones:
      -Re-establish the connection between the source device and the headset.
      -When using a video calling application on a computer, switch the Bluetooth connection to HFP or HSP with the computer. During a video call, sound quality may become low due to the conditions of the communication line.
      -You can also check the settings of the app that you are using for mic sensitivity if available.

      For your concern regarding the right color. you may reach out to your dealer. Hope this helps. Thanks and regards ,-Craig Sony_US

    I really like these, and I've tried many different headphones and ear buds. I even ended up returning Bose 700 series. These are my favorite so far, my only complain is when the ear pads wear down from nightly use over a year, it's hard to impossible to get them fixed. The store says they don't fix them. I might just get a pair of 3rd party ear pads.
