      Hi Dean,

      Great to hear the noise cancellation is helping you stay focused at the gym! To keep them performing their best, remember to wipe them down after use as this model is not water-resistant.

      Thanks for choosing Sony.

    I used these for a trip and the noise cancellation on the plane was perfect. The settings for the headphones within the app are also fun to play around with, they are great for watching movies and getting the whole experience. If you are into noise cancellation and being able to customize your settings then these are great.

    I had an expensive pair of Bose headphones that lasted me year, but they eventually gave out and I needed another pair but I wanted something different, so I tried these and I’m impressed! I will have to say they are way better than my Bose headphones! The sound is superb and the noise cancelling is so good! Worth every dollar spent!

    Have been using it for more than a year. Perfect, no issues. The headphone has no quality issues, but overall the sound cancellation makes the music sound small when I am in public. I charge it once and I can use it for 10-15 hours.
