Great headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Amazing audio quality and extremely comfortable. I can wear these all day and forget that they're even on. Also love the controls and sound customization options. Definitely the best pair of consumer headphones you'll ever buy. The only complaint I have about them is that the headphones occasionally pause for no reason. Maybe, it thinks I'm talking when I'm not(it pauses automatically when you start talking) but it's slightly upsetting when that happens(which has probably been about 5 times in the month that I've had it.). Other than that, it's a solid pair of headphones.

Top notch for sound, comfort and noise canceling
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love these headphones. Bought them because I was going to be flying for 10 hours and I lost one of my air pods pro. The noise cancellation is excellent. Didn’t hear the airplane engines and I was sitting by the wing. They were comfortable on my ears. Love the app you can download because it includes an equalizer you can adjust for didn’t music genres. Overall happy with my purchase.

Exceptional headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My girlfriend absolutely loves these. She said she honestly cannot find anything wrong with them. Great sound and noise-canceling (she uses these in a hectic work environment), clever mute feature, easy connection to her cell or PC, comfortable. These come in several nice colors, but they did not promote this in-store. The price is a little scary, but comparable to competing brands.

Not perfect but close compared to others
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for the best possible pair of wireless headphones that I could buy for around $200. I did a lot of research from YouTube to reviews like on here to help me determine which was best for me. So it always seemed that Sony's XM3 and XM4 always stood out amongst its competitors. So I waited for a deal to come along because let's face it I wasn't going to spend $350 for a pair of headphones. Well, I just missed these going on sale for $199 by a day so I waited again until the XM3 went on sale for $169 and thought that was a steal so I order them right away, When I received them I liked everything about them. They felt nice over my ears and with the customization to the sound it made them sound awesome. They were hands down the best-sounding headphones I have ever worn. I previously had Beats and JBL. There was an issue and it mattered to me a lot and that was when I tried to use them to make and receive phone calls. Nobody could hardly hear me on the other end and after messing with them for a while and doing some research it seemed this was a big issue with these headphones so I returned them. I ended up getting the Bose QuietComfort 35 and those didn't even come close to being nice compared to the Sony XM3 especially because there was no ability to customize the sound you had to use the EQ from your phone in which I have an I-Phone that has preset EQ in which I think the I-Phones preset EQ's are horrid, to say the least. I also had similar issues with the Bose on people not hearing me very well on phone calls. So I returned them to try and get my Sony XM3 back but they did have any and would have to order them in which they wouldn't give me my sales price instead they were back to $350. So I was out of luck so I waited until these came on sale for $289 but I had a 10% discount plus cashback rewards and walked out paying $235 for the Sony XM4 and they worked perfectly even with phone calls but what I am not happy about and I don't understand why Sony decided to do this but the XM3 has way more customization with the sound and EQ through their app then does the XM4 even though its the same app. So the XM4 doesn't sound as nice as the XM3 because of that. They still sound wonderful but if I was to pick a headset the XM3 are way better if you get one where the mic for phone calls isn't having issues. Well that's my 2 cents I hope it helps somebody

100% Recommend
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I absolutely love my new headphones! I've had them about a month now, and I do not regret the purchase. Sound quality is almost 100% balanced, higher ends seem to get a bit cut out. Noice cancelling truly is amazing. Battery life is seriously outstanding, I'm not constantly worried about having to make sure it's charged. Also has a great case that makes me feel like it is protected.

Amazing
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The noise canceling is really good and sound leakage is nonexistent. The only thing is somethings they can fall off because they are a little to big. But overall I love them

Great headphones. Worth the investment.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound quality is excellent and has great features. Long-lasting battery. Does not hurt the ears. Noise-canceling doesn't work if you are on the highway and you open the window. The loud air from the wind affects the headphones and hurts the eardrums. These are great for working out or going for a walk. Also great for virtual meetings and you don't want the whole house to hear the conversation.
