Perfect headphones
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best purchase this year. Noise canceling is prefect, sound is customizable, and battery lasts over a day and charges super quick. Seamlessly goes between my phone and laptop within 5 seconds of playing sounds when swapping between devices.

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.

Soooo good!!!!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The noise cancellation on these are absolutely amazing!! Once I have these on I focus increases like crazy. The only down side is you can’t really talk on the phone if they’re connected, you sound very muffled but that’s a given

Best headphones I have had.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I work 10hr days in a loud environment. With these I can still hear my audio nice and clear. The amazing battery life on these means I can listen all day at work and not have to fret if I forget to charge them at night. I'll take these over beats any day.

Excellent noise canceling headset
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are very good. The build quality is sturdy, but very lightweight. Battery lasts a long time, at least 15 hours on a charge. I really like the companion app which allows you to personalize and fine tune the noise cancellation/ pass-through audio settings.

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!

Better than my Bose 35’s sound and noise canceling
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are serious! If you want better than average noise canceling, and some good control over how to listen to your music with the App, a good bass boost, and 360 audio sound. These do the job with a great battery life for all day listening.
