||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This was a replacement of the previous model, which I, I had for six or seven years and had served me well. The first had lasted a long time despite a lot abuse that had occurred due to a lot of air travel. The first model served me well, as is this purchase. I am getting familiar with the new features on these new headphones.

Shouldn't Have Had to Buy but Product is Great
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'd actually purchased same item 10/31 and then saw Black Friday sale - sadly wasn't allowed to price match so forced to return 1st pair only to buy same again but $100 less. GREAT headphones, though. Excellent sound & great noise cancelling. Sorry to waste employee time returning and restocking but wasn't letting a $100 savings go.

Headphones...
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these sony headphones. I do notice that they get my hears pretty warm and sore if you wear them for a prolonged amount of time. My advice is if you are looking for headphones that creates a great seal and you aren't planning on wearing them for a long period of time, get these. I used them on a flight from detroit to tampa and I didnt keep them on the entire time because of ear fatigue. Also the touch controls arent the best

Don’t Sleep On These
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound! These are so underrated. The Sony headphones are excellent without all of the flash. While they’re expensive, the investment in this product is more in sound and tech vs. the look. I’ve owned Beats and these are hands down much better than any headphones I’ve ever listened to.

Amazing headphones.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are easily the best headphones I have ever owned. My only regret is that I did not buy them sooner. I love the noise cancellation and the touch controls on the right ear. The speak feature that lowers the volume and turns off ANC for a period of time is awesome, but it is not for me. If I respond and just say yea to someone it activates. Great feature, just not for me.
