So worth it
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Haven't owned over-ear headphones in years but I'm getting tired of earbuds. Switched from Galaxy Buds Pro 2 to these and I don't regret it. They're not the most intuitive for touch control but once you figure it out it's very simple. Love the volume control option. I would recommend these for sure.

Posted .Hi Bobby,
We're glad that you like the sound quality and battery life of the headphones. It's unfortunate that you're experiencing delay or lag when watching movies. Make sure to install the latest software version of the headphones (via the Sony Headphones Connect app) for optimum performance.
The audio playback on this unit may be delayed from that on the transmitting device, due to the characteristics of Bluetooth wireless technology. As a result, the sound may not be in sync with the image when viewing movies or playing games. Thanks for sharing your feedback and for choosing Sony.

seems too big for my head, but it'll do.
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Only get's 4 stars cause I'm not sure the adaptive Noise Cancelling automatically "adapts" to the current noise levels. Sometimes I have to reset the noise cancelling by turning off and on, then it seems to block out more noise. However, it is better than Bose noise cancelling blocking out more of the upper midrange.

Great headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best headphone purchase I ever made The noice cancelation isn't perfect, but it's close. The bass is the smoothest I've ever heard, and I was not very picky, but I will never expect anything but the quality I get from these! Would have spent 500 easily

Get the XM4s only if you don't have the XM3s alrea
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought the XM4's because I lost my XM3's. No need to upgrade if you have the prior edition. There are new features that add some minor improvements but not really worth the extra $$. Gotta say the blue is slick! Hope Sony keeps this color way for the next installment.
